France is the latest country to reopen their borders to the UK.
Back in December, the rise of the Omicron variant resulted in countries around the world tightening restrictions, with many closing off to the UK.
However, as community transmission continues through Europe, nations are starting to allow Brits to enter.

But as this virus is unpredictable, some European countries are still following mitigations and have different rules for those who are fully vaccinated, and those who aren't.
Before jetting off, travellers are encouraged to check their destination's rules and requirements.
Here's a full breakdown of the restrictions in place in France, Italy, Spain and Greece.
France
France is open to fully vaccinated Brits without an essential reason for travel.
Those aged 12 and over still need to present a negative PCR or lateral flow test (taken within 24 hours) on arrival but will not have to isolate.
Fully vaccinated travellers must also provide a completed ‘sworn statement’ (déclaration sur l’honneur) form self-certifying you’re not suffering from symptoms associated with coronavirus and have not been in contact with confirmed cases in the preceding fortnight. This can be found on the French government’s website.
Children under the age of 12 follow the same rules of those who are fully vaccinated if they are travelling with an adult who has had both jags.
Those who are not vaccinated must also present a negative Covid test and isolate for 10 days, subject to police checks.
Travellers must also provide contact details before travel to France, including the address they will be staying at, to the French authorities via an online form.
They must complete the international travel form to prove the reason for essential travel. This can be found on the French government’s website.
In exceptional circumstances, the French Consulate in London may be able to assist with travel for a compelling reason not listed as an ‘essential reason for travel’.
Additionally, they must provide a completed ‘sworn statement’ (déclaration sur l’honneur) form self-certifying they are not suffering from symptoms associated with coronavirus and have not been in contact with confirmed cases in the preceding fortnight. This can be found on the French government’s website.
When in France, all adults, by law, will need a booster jab to be eligible for a French Covid pass, known as the 'Passe Sanitaire', which will allow entry into venues such as bars, restaurants and cinemas.
It can take around three days to be issued a Passe Sanitaire and France also accepts the Covid pass from the UK with proof of a booster vaccine.
Italy
Italy will accept the UK’s proof of coronavirus recovery and vaccination pass as the equivalent to a 'green pass'.
As a result, those travelling from the UK who can demonstrate that they are fully vaccinated, can enter Italy without needing to self-isolate.
Additionally, travellers will need to show evidence of a negative PCR test taken within 48 hours before entering Italy, or a negative antigen test taken within 24 hours before entering Italy.
The UK Government website also warns that regardless of vaccination status, anyone arriving in Italy by air, land or by sea may be subject to random Covid testing on arrival until January 31.
Those who aren't fully vaccinated need to complete a passenger locator form and provide a negative PCR test within 48 hours before entering Italy or a negative lateral flow test taken within 24 hours before entering Italy.
They must also isolate for five days and take a PCR test on the fifth day. If it is negative, isolation can end.
Spain
Spain is only open to fully vaccinated travellers.
Travellers from the UK, aged 12 and over must only show proof of vaccine.
Spain currently uses a level system to mark the level of threat from the virus, with one being the lowest and four being the highest.
Popular holiday hotspots including the Balearic Islands Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza and Formentera are currently at level three - meaning moderately high.
Public transport has been capped at 75 percent to curb the spread of the virus, and nightclubs at 25 percent and close at midnight, in some regions. Travellers are encouraged to check the area they are visiting to ensure they are clued up on the rules.
This comes after the country experienced surge in Covid cases recently.
Masks must be worn in public space, outdoors unless exercising alone and you can only meet in a group of six.
Beaches in level three areas can only operate at 50 percent and appointments may have to be made.
Greece
Those jetting off to Greece, aged five and above, must fill out a passenger locator form and present the barcode for it on arrival.
You will also be required to show proof of a negative PCR test taken within 48 hours prior to flying.
Brits may also be required to do a rapid test on arrival, as well as a day two and four antigen test or PCR test while there.
