Armenia Sets Table for Tourism Sector
Armenia is reopening to major
tourists sooner than originally expected.
“We will gradually lift the
restrictions at the beginning of summer season and we will continue the
recovery period step by step” a tourism blogger told to ArmeniaGoing reps.
The country will reopen to
tourists coming from major countries taking very high health measure and
precautions.
Armenia is once again ready to
welcome tourists, but the pandemic, a recent war in Nagorno-Karabakh and a
political crisis are not helping matters, holding back economic recovery. The
country's key hospitality sector has been particularly affected; With their
strong spirit, public and private sectors are working hardly with very high
motivation to secure an extra fast tourism recovery and eventually we are seeing
again tourist groups in Yerevan, Gyumri, Dilijan, Jermuk, Sevan even sooner of summer
vacations.

travelling safely in coronavirus times
As of next week, travelers
entering from the major countries will not have to quarantine so long as they
have proof they are fully vaccinated or have a negative COVID-19 PCR test
result carried out 72 hours prior to arrival. However, tourists will be subject
to Armenia’s ongoing lockdown restrictions if persists.
Bringing tourism back is
essential to Armenia’s economic bottom line. Many cities and towns in the
country nation rely on the money spent by visitors, and the effects of the
year-long pandemic have been incredibly harmful to many local businesses.
So, Armenia is readying to again
welcome international tourists starting summer 2021.
"This year we will build on our
sloid experience to offer safe holidays. We look forward to welcoming our
guests and we will make sure that they have a real chance to relax and recover
from the stress of this past year," says the blogger to Armenia Going
reps.
