Where can I travel to this year?
International travel out of the UK will now definitely resume on May 17th, however with some restrictions still in place with the rollout of the Traffic Light System. While the Green List has slim pickings, the Amber List is full of promise and gives hope that there is scope for you to travel a little more freely this summer. We suggest you consider both Green and Amber Lists when thinking about where to travel this summer onwards, as this will give you more potential in the diversity of destinations on offer but also crucially in having more availability for sought-after properties. You can do this, safe in the knowledge that Steppes Travel will give you fully flexible booking conditions, meaning your cash is not exposed.
Each country will of course also have its own rules, in terms of entry requirements, and it may all get a little confusing, but our destination experts are great at navigating the ever-changing landscape and will be on hand to help you plan every aspect of your holiday. There really is no better time to book with a tour operator.
We hope you will take advantage of our flexible booking policy, allowing you to make plans without the risk of onerous payment terms. While certainty is a luxury we do not have right now, you can be certain that Steppes is here to help you make your next holiday a memorable one because we know how much you have earned it!

What does the Traffic Light System mean for travellers?
Put simply, if you visit a country on the Green List you won’t need to quarantine on your return back to the UK, although you will need to test negative both before travel and on your return. If you visit a country on the Amber List you will need to quarantine for ten days at home on your return to the UK, but you can make use of the Government’s Test to Release scheme, so you can leave quarantine after five days if you test negative.
Flexibility
Flexible Travel Planning & Payment Service
If you’re looking to get away for a much-needed and well-deserved holiday but not sure where is the most feasible destination, we are happy to put on hold several holiday options for you, giving you greater flexibility nearer to your departure.
Furthermore, just as we tailor-make your holiday to suit your needs, we will do the same with devising a payment plan that works for you. This will mean reduced deposit amounts, a cooling-off period during which time your deposit is 100% refundable and a final payment date much later than normal. We will work closely with our friends and partners around the world for you.
