During these times where travelling remains uncertain, with travel restrictions suddenly springing upin various places, one shouldn't give up all their hopes and dreams of travelling to their dream destination, especially when it's a place straight out of a fairytale such as the Maldives. It is acknowledged that travel planning is much-more exciting than the actual journey itself. So here are some ways you can plan a holiday in the Maldives.

Work with the experts

The corona pandemic has made the value of a trusted travel organiser more apparent to all the 'travelholics' across the globe. Trips planned alone can leave you exposed to sudden fluctuations in the industry, resulting in unexpected cash loss, when you had already paid a deposit to your vacation in the near future. Working with a reliable travel planner is always safe during these times as they are well-versed with hidden clauses and statements that would prove disastrous should you decide to change your travel dates or forced to do so due to constantly evolving circumstances in the world. These experts also have insider connections wherein they can keep you away from unforeseen surges in the hotel rates once the demand goes high. Especially when you're planning a trip to the Maldives, a paradisiacal destination, which most travellers consider a perfect escape after being stuck between walls for several months, it is vital that you work with an industry-best planner who would make sure that every possible precaution is to make sure that all your travel plans are honoured without unreasonable fluctuations.

Sign up for travel insurance

Many existing travel insurances don't cover pandemics; therefore, it is essential that you carefully read through each provider's terms and conditions before selecting one. Most insurance policies cater towards covering their clients and vendors in unanticipated circumstances, but not fear-induced cancellations that are common during a pandemic at hand. These policies are primarily in place to cover travel plans that are disrupted due to either medical-based reasons or inability to travel due to reasons such as borders being closed or suspended flights. As a result, pandemics can slip through general policies causing you to lose large cash deposits in the process, which you wouldn't be able to recover. Therefore, before you sign up for travel insurance, grill your service provider if you must with questions, to make sure that your requirements are covered to perfection.

What to expect once you're in the Maldives

As a responsible person, make arrangements to abide by all the safety precautions entrusted by the World Health Organisation during your travel to the Maldives. Once you land on this scenic island via the Velana International Airport, an escort would likely be waiting to take you safely down to your resort. When you make reservations at a resort, it is essential to find out whether these types of services are included in their package or come at an additional cost. Paying more focus on where your money flow will bode you well during these troubled times, as you never know what the future might bring. Several properties in the Maldives, such as Reethi Faru Resort, adhere to government guidelines, committing to create a safe atmosphere within their resort island. It is far more reasonable to stay within the confined of your resort island than venturing to far-fetch destinations to expose you or the whole island to the risk of a Covid-19 attack.

Top activities in and around the islands

The enrapturing islands of the Maldives are rather popular for their spectacular opportunities of snorkelling or diving over magical marine habitats. However, it would be best if you can purchase your own underwater gear, such as the face mask to minimize the risk of exposure to this Corona pandemic.

During your stay at a Maldives overwater villa, you can view the majestic setting of the sun that bathes you and everything around you in a dreamy golden haze. Witnessing the dolphin acrobatics during this time would be an ethereal experience. The array of activities that you can indulge within your island premises while ensuring your safety cannot be numbered. However, including anything and everything in your itinerary wasn't practical even during the time before Corona. Make sure to carefully draw out the itinerary, opting for the most viable options to ensure that you have the most amazing escape after several months of seclusion that almost drove you out of your mind.
