Greek authorities have updated rules for tourists infected with Covid-19, including mandatory isolation. Last week, Greek government officials decided to remove quarantine rooms at hotels, meaning travellers who become infected with coronavirus will not have to follow self-isolation rules, reports SchengenVisaInfo.com.

In addition, Greece's current rule which requires those with Covid-19 to isolate for a five day period does not apply to tourists.

Those who contract the virus can decide if they want to stay in quarantine for the duration of their stay, but will not be required to do so.Travellers with Covid-19 will still be able to access public transport from Greece, including ferries and planes.

However, they must wear either an FFP2 or KN95 face mask the entire journey.In May, Greece lifted all coronavirus travel rules, meaning all travellers, regardless of country of origin, can enter the country restriction free.
