GREECE is scrapping all Covid rules this week, ahead of the summer holidays.
This means Brits will be able to travel to the holiday hotspot with few restrictions in place anymore.
From May 1, all travellers to Greece – regardless of vaccination status – will no longer be required to provide evidence of vaccination, recovery from Covid, or a test to enter the country.
Brits will no longer need to present a coronavirus vaccination certificate to enter bars, restaurants and other attractions either.
And face mask rules are being relaxed by June as well.
Wearing masks indoors will no longer be mandatory from June 1, with more information regarding the venues that still require them nearer the time.

"All measures will be reviewed on September 1, depending on the picture of the pandemic."
