They\u2019ve been informed about the new program which will<\/span><b> finance COVID-19 tests for tourists staying in Krk Town<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The main goal of this activity is to lower the prices of the tests, which will subsequently help tourists stay on the island, and therefore expand the autumn and winter season.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>To get the discount<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, tourists must stay in the Krk Town for at least five nights. Current price of the tests is about 700 Kunas (93 Euros). Therefore, guests would pay half of that amount, while the other half would be divided into three parts between Krk Tourist Board, Krk Town and accommodation owner, regardless if it&#8217;s a hotel, private accommodation or campsite. The Tourist Board and the town have already secured about 6.6 thousand Euros for the program. With this program, all the guests whose country requires COVID-19 tests in order for them to get back home, will get the discount. As mentioned above, there is <\/span><b>a minimum stay of five nights required<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which can be achieved by 31st December 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The idea for this program came from accommodation owners, who keep welcoming guests to Krk Island. <\/span><b>To be a part of the program<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, owners cannot have any previous debts to Tourist Board or Krk Town. In order to get the discount, guests must provide a notice or a voucher which proves they\u2019ve been staying in Krk for at least five nights. That voucher can be given to them by the owners themselves. Everyone involved is assured these measures would expand the season on the island. <\/span><b>Testing for COVID-19 can still be done in Krk Town<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, every day of the week except Wednesdays and the weekend. To take the test, one can either pay the full price, or lower price with doctor\u2019s referral. Paying has to be done in cash on the spot, while tests will be delivered no later than 48 hours after testing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Source<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/otok-krk.org\/krk\/borba-za-posezonu-kr%C4%8Dani-svojim-turistima-pla%C4%87aju-polovinu-cijene-testa-na-koronu\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Otok Krk<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following the instructions from Krk Tourist Board Council and Croatian Institute of Public Health, the Tourist Board has notified all the apartment owners, hotels and OPGs on Krk Island.
