The head of Tunisia’s national tourist office in the UK has told TTG she remains hopeful British holidaymakers may yet be able to travel to Tunisia this summer.
Wahida Jaiet, director UK and Ireland of the Tunisian National Tourist Office (TNTO), said the Tunisian government’s decision to reclassify the UK a "green" country and lift its inbound travel restrictions on UK arrivals would come as a relief for Brits keen to plan holidays in Tunisia, and Tunisian nationals in the UK hoping to visit friends and family.
However, any rebound will rely on the Foreign Office exempting Tunisia from its global advisory against all non-essential travel, and the Department for Transport lifting the UK’s 14-day quarantine on arrival requirement for those returning from Tunisia.
