Countries closed their borders for tourists in order to control the spread and even after many months once the borders reopened, some countries made it mandatory for tourists to spend 2 weeks in quarantine before joining the community. Sri Lanka’s safety measures include spending two days in a government certified hotel if vaccinated and two weeks if you haven’t received the vaccination yet.
Although people are yearning to go on a holiday, especially to a tropical island such as Sri Lanka, to enjoy the sunny beaches while kicking back and relaxing, people are very hesitant to spend two weeks of their holiday stuck in a hotel room. No matter how comfortable or luxurious a hotel room can be, it can still get quite monotonous as it’s not the ideal way you would want to spend your vacation.
