I think the UK is changing system anytime before 1st Oct to a Go or Don't Go system so loads of countries will probably become available if you can hang on a bit.

You have to enter from a green or amber country, where you’ve been for at least 10 days. If amber you’ll need to self quarantine at home.

Red countries = Uk hotel quarantine.....at the moment.

@Gary ********
not his question .

@Stuart ********
Only self isolate from amber countries if you havent been double jabbed.

@Steve ******
as far as I am aware UK does not recognise vaccines given outside of Europe or USA so you would still need to self isolate if entering from other countries even if amber. If this has changed please provide a link to relevant evidence.Stuart *********
@Steve ******
I thought that point was still in debate. Or maybe I’m confusing it with red countries and the need to hotel quarantine Activity
