Countries in Africa Re-opening: COVID-19 Protocols + Entry Requirements

What countries in Africa are open for tourism?

Note: The information on this page is correct to the best of Giltedge’s knowledge at the time of publication; and it’s reviewed continuously.

How we travel has changed tremendously over the last year. But as one of the world’s leading tour operators, Giltedge is committed to ensuring the safety of our guests and staff. Our expert team will advise you on post-Covid travel to Africa.

We suggest that you visit the official government website of the country you’re intending to visit. It’s also important to check travel regulations with your airline prior to departure.

Most airlines are asking passengers to produce a negative RT-PCR test performed within 72 hours of departure. Some airlines require this a negative RT-PCR test for both the inbound and outbound flight.

The RDT (Rapid Diagnostic Test) and the PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) tests are different. RDT results and home test results are unlikely to be accepted.
