As the Covid 19 situation is about to calm down, our country, the Philippines’ domestic and international tourism market, is also recovering. We all know that some people are still scared to take a risk to travel, however, I can say that now is the time to have exciting and safe travels!
A lot of travelers are still concerned about health and safety precautions. And thought that when you travel now, there’s a lot of hassle and passes needed to be approved. In consideration, the government continues to impose the minimum health standards, in cooperation with the local government units, the LGUs, and the tourism industry, to reassure the travelers’ safety.
The Tourism Secretary, Ms. Bernadette Romulo-Puyat also advised the travelers that all the safety measures are still strictly observed and enforced by the department and the LGUs. She also stated that:
“Travel in the Philippines is safe, and as we always promised, more fun.”
