Blue Stamp Travel prides itself on a proactive strategy of Health and Safety management. Coronavirus has created new challenges for us to endure and overcome. Wherever necessary, we mitigate risks to keep students safe. In respect to Coronavirus, we stay abreast of current guidance from the World Health Organisation (WHO).

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO), and local governments in destination countries. The actions outlined below are part of our strategy to prevent the spread of Coronavirus and keep students safe during their trip and after their return.
