For the months of
January and February 2021, Costa Rica presented LOW indicators of
COVID-19.
Unfortunately, Costa
Ricans seeing that people were already being vaccinated, due to their
despair of being locked up for so long and their free time for
leisure at Easter, caused the number of cases in Costa Rica to
increase for the month of April 2021.
The Costa RicanTourism Institute, the Ministry of Health and the Private Industry
have implemented strict hygiene and safety protocols to protect our
visitors. From January to March 2021, Costa Rica reactivated
international arrivals and as a country we managed to increase the
number of airlines, the number of seats available and the visit of
203,755 people by air. The Security Perception Index for Costa Rica
from June 2020 to today has remained oscillating between 80 and 90
points.
The tourism minister
has repeatedly mentioned that the rate of positive cases in
international visitors in tourism is 0.15.
Traveling in your
bubble following the safety guidelines, using personal protection and
using serious providers that have all the permits, safe travels seal
and implementation of protocols makes Costa Rica a safe destination
to travel.
Between the months
of March and April 2021,
IL VIAGGIO TRAVEL had 30 happy travelers of various
nationalities enjoying Costa Rica. Everyone returned home with a
negative covid test and full of fun, bonding memories. For the next
few months we have several confirmed trips from people eager to enjoy
a safe leisure trip. As a company, we ensure the safety of our staff
and passengers, therefore we apply all
bio-security protocols.

that to enter Costa Rica you are ONLY requested to complete the
Digital Health Form and bring an Insurance with specifications
