zen Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 (edited) Countries such as Greece, along with some of the other European countries, have opened up or are in the process of opening up soon ... To visit, you would need to be fully vaccinated for COVID and/or test negative ... Tourist would be allowed from selected countries only ... One would also need to be careful about selecting flights for e.g. if UK is closed for tourism, changing flight there could be a no-no https://thepointsguy.com/guide/reopening-soon-a-country-by-country-guide-to-coronavirus-recovery/ https://www.cnn.com/travel/article/us-international-travel-covid-19/index.html Edited June 1, 2021 by zen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranvir Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Only desperate fools would go on holiday abroad in this climate. We don't even know what's going to happen next week with covid. Why risk going abroad and catching something? It's better to wait until a year after things get back to normal. If you do really want to go, do something in your own country.

zen Posted June 9, 2021 Author Share Posted June 9, 2021 Spain is opening up as well ... France, Italy, Portugal, etc are likely to open up soon ...

Of course, the tourists would need to meet certain conditions and could be from selected countries Europe will also have a COVID travel pass that would allow tourists to move among selected European countries w/o restrictions - Link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Athens reminded me a lot of Bombay - a lot of it is due to the building height rule - IIRC they don't build anything taller than the acropolis in Athens, and as a result there are a lot of 4 to 10 floor residential buildings all over Athens, lot of them stucco, with awnings inthe balcony. As a history buff, Athens was one of my favorite places to visit, especially as I was able to combine it with visits to the Knossos palace in Crete, and Akrotiri (think Mohenjo Daro/Pompeii) in Santorini.
