TRAFFIC LIGHT SYSTEM FOR TRAVEL:
 

WHICH COUNTRIES ARE    RED,    AMBER,    GREEN ?

The UK is moving out of lockdown, and we know that you (like us) are itching to get away and back to nature.

The long-awaited traffic light system has been announced. And here is how our safari and wildlife destinations fit into this system. 
 

Before you read on, remember that :

  • We can help you to arrange PCR tests before you travel abroad.
     

  • We can arrange your pre-departure PCR test before you head home after your safari.
     

  • We will do our best to monitor as countries move hopefully towards green, but please call us to discuss if you have a question about the current status of a country you are particularly interested in visiting. 

GREEN: 

A PCR test before you set off *Depending on the airline and destination.

A pre-departure test, usually not more than 72hrs before you fly back. 

One PCR test on or before day two after arrival back in the UK.

No quarantine unless a test is positive.

 

AMBER:

A PCR test before you set off *Depending on the airline and destination.

A pre-departure test, usually not more than 72hrs before you fly back. 

Quarantine at home for 10 days on arrival. Whilst complying with the PCR test requirements. 

Notes: 

  • You may be able to end self-isolation after day 5 through the ‘Test to ‘Release’ scheme if you pay for a private coronavirus (COVID-19) test.

  • You must still take the 2 coronavirus tests you booked before you travelled. Find out more about the tests you must book and take.

  • There are rumours that fully vaccinated people could potentially avoid quarantine. This has not yet been confirmed.


 

RED:
 

A PCR test before you set off *Depending on the airline and destination.
