The southern-most country on the African continent has been open to visitors since November 2020 to those who present a negative COVID-19 test. Known for its coastal sunshine, diverse climate, and intriguing heritage, South Africa is a destination best seen with the help of a knowledgeable tour and safari operator.

Explore mysterious history among fewer crowds at iconic Machu Picchu! Peru has capped visitor numbers for popular destinations.

Austin Adventures offers trips to Peru's famous sites, but also to more lesser-known locations.

 

4. Galapagos Islands

This is the year to see the Galapagos with fewer boats and crowds than ever before. While the Galapagos have been open to international visitors since July 2020, tourists must still meet travel requirements like proof of vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test. Hike along volcanic trails or meet a 150-year-old tortoise!

Beginning in May, Greece is reopening its doors to vaccinated tourists who wish to soak in the Mediterranean sunshine. Inspired by the reopening, we've just put the finishing touches on a new June 2022 tour! Experience the best of Greek culture, history, architecture, and cuisine with the family.

 

2. Iceland

Iceland was one of the first European countries to open to tourists in March 2021 who are vaccinated and tested.
