Furthermore, on the promotional website of the Hola Islas Canarias destination, the content for tourists has been updated, also in multiple languages. Specifically, the information section about the coronavirus, where it is explained very clearly and answers were posted for frequently asked questions from travelers who have doubts about how to comply with the measures implemented in the islands.
