Where can U.S. Citizens Travel Right Now: Europe Edition

(Updated May 24th, 2021)

 

Looking to get away but aren’t sure what your options are? Don’t feel like checking the embassy websites for every country in Europe? Well we already did that, so we’ve got you covered! Currently 18 countries are allowing US citizens to visit, so let’s get right to it. If you are coming from or have visited high risk countries such as India, Brazil, or South Africa, you may be subject to additional restrictions.

 

Note: When returning to the U.S. you will be required to provide proof of a negative PCR test, so we have included information on the availability of testing and prices for each location. Additionally this information is valid as of May 24th, 2021 and is subject to change.
