Most people who love traveling can relate to the fact that the coronavirus messed up a lot of travel plans this year. Whatever trips you were planning in 2020, chances are that they had to be canceled due to the COVID19 outbreak that started in Wuhan and led to a pandemic around the world. Borders were closed and international travel was banned for a while in a bid to get the novel coronavirus under control. But thankfully, some travel destinations have now reopened and travelers have high hopes for the coming months and years. If you’re already considering where to go once the world starts to get back to normal, here are some of the most desirable travel destinations for the post-COVID world.

The UK is home to several amazing tourist destinations and has something for everybody whether you want to head to a big city like London or bask in the gorgeous countryside in the Scottish Highlands. During a trip to Scotland, you can easily switch between bustling cities like Edinburgh and Glasgow before heading north to picturesque destinations like the Isle of Skye, all reachable by bus or train from England or Wales.
Ireland:
From the UK you can get a ferry across to Ireland where you can find a wide range of fun Ireland tours to take part in.
