International Travel Update

Here are some updates on some of our destinations below, which will make travelling on our tours feasible & cheaper for many based in the UK, USA, Canada, Europe & around the world.

United Kingdom travel updates

From 19 July 2021, fully vaccinated travellers (vaccinated via UK schemes) do not need to quarantine on arrival back from 'Amber' countries.

This makes the rules for these countries the same as the 'Green' list. So, you still need a test before returning home, and a PCR test once you are on day two. (We're helping everyone on their tours to get any required tests before they come home.)

You also don't need to quarantine and you don't need a second test on the 8th day after you come home like you used to. This is a big change and makes it much easier to travel!

Whether you can travel also depends on the local rules and on whether we have completed all our Safer Encounters procedures.

The Green & Amber list countries which you can also actually visit with us right now are:

• Croatia (tailor-made)
• Greece
• Jordan
• Lebanon
• Morocco

Several of our destinations are now allowing fully vaccinated travellers to enter without requiring a PCR test. These countries include:

• Egypt
• Morocco
• Greece
• Lebanon (UK citizens only so far)

Where can US travellers go?
