With the COVID-19 pandemic still affecting the entire world, many people are still skeptical about travelling and there are still a number of restrictions on travel to different countries.
According to the travel and photography website, Capture the Atlas, there are currently 123 countries that have opened their borders to tourism. However, from that list, there are only 17 countries that have no restrictions for entry and 88 countries where you can travel without having to quarantine.
However, it has been recommended by most travel gurus that incase on is to plan a trip he/she is advised to purchase travel insurance, which can cover the cost of quarantine and PCR testing if you need it.
Many countries open to tourism also mandate travelers to have insurance before they can visit.
Among the countries with no restrictions to visit are the Dominican Republic, Brazil, Costa Rica, Greece and Mexico.
Burkina Faso is another country open for tourism without restrictions by country but incoming travellers must present a negative PCR COVID-19 test. If a test is not presented, travellers will have to pay for their own testing at the airport and isolate for two weeks.
Most of the countries on the list, even in the absence of restrictions, require a negative PCR test to be done up to 72 hours before entry. In Ghana, another of the places you can visit when the borders are open, travellers need to present a negative PCR test and also be tested at the airport upon arrival, at a cost of US $150. Ghana’s no-quarantine policy is dependent on a negative test done at the airport.
It is advisable to seek information on a country’s official government website before booking your trip to see the full list of restrictions and requirements prior to travel.
Many countries require incoming travelers to use their official health applications to log any symptoms they may develop after entry and have different protocols to treat with those who have been fully vaccinated against the COVID-19 virus.
