Despite the warning figures of the
increase in cases of coronavirus
in the country, in the main tourist destinations they await with great expectations the start of the
long weekend
of
Easter 2021
.
Many have very encouraging reserve figures for their regional economies.
The sector is working intensively these days to adjust protocols, as has been discussed in meetings between the Ministries of Tourism and Sports, the Ministry of Health and the chambers that bring together the private sector, with the aim that everyone can enjoy the planned trips at Easter without this implying a risk to the population or a worsening of the country's health situation.
Those who have scheduled trips must comply with the
procedures required by the destinations
-municipalities and provinces- to enter their territory.
In general, they all maintain the same requirements requested of tourists during the summer.
