In 2019, 1,4 billion tourists travelled around the world compared to 1,1 bilion in 2015. With COVID-19 active - and even after the vaccine - it is clear that expect such figures will not be realistic for a long time.

bearing in mind the extreme uncertainty, we recommend local tourism. On June 21, the Alarm State in Spain will end and, from here on, assuming that everything goes well, you can think about going on vacation.

In any case, it will not be a usual holiday: beaches divided into small parcels, quotas of assistance to: restaurants, swimming pools and monuments. All this is accompanied by extreme hygiene and temperature taking when entering shops. Told this way it is not motivating but it is very probable that at the end of the text your vision will change slightly.

In the current situation, travelling to a rural environment is an alternative more than ever. Proof of this is that reservations in the countryside have doubled in comparison with 2019. You can take a glance to the web www.escapadarural.com to some Spanish destinations.  As if this were not enough incentive, you will help the tourism sector. Tourism contributes 12.3% of the Spanish GDP and 12.7% of total employment.
