Keen adventurers will be thrilled as more and more countries begin reopening their borders following a difficult two years. With the rise of the coronavirus in 2020, borders were closed to travellers as governments implemented nationwide lockdowns.
After a year and a half of travel misery, which saw thousands of people have their holidays cancelled because of lockdown and then further disappointment as strikes and cancellations caused chaos at airports, things are finally looking up. Most European countries are open to travellers as normal, with masks no longer required and mandatory testing abolished.
But what about those countries further afield, where Covid hit particularly hard? Many Asian countries have taken a little longer to get back up to full speed, though many are open to travellers, vaccinations or negative Covid tests are still required.
