Can anyone advise me where I can get a covid test for returning to UK by road. It needs to be 72 hours prior to return

Thank you 

Sanatorio san Jorge in Alcoy I had mine there. They have all different tests at different prices and always you can get an appointment just a lot of waiting.

Hi

Which farmacia is this please, and do they confirm that they meet the test criteria on the Gov.uk site?

TIA

We went to the pharmacy at la feunte  commercial centre and had the antigen test which is the correct test for travel

Hi I would also check your local private clinics and around quasada where we have a holiday home some pharmacies are offering them, you don’t need the expensive PCR test, the Antigen  LAMP test( lateral flow) is exceptable

Is this test acceptable for flying.  We're on a Ryanair flight on 20 February.

Hi are you driving through France? I saw they are now asking for a negative pcr test to enter France from other eu countries  I wonder have I misunderstood? Anyone done the road trip since 31st Jan who can advise please.

Kind regards

Carole

I believe the test is now a requirement in France. I saw the notification on the UK government webpage. It is recent as we traveled mid December and it wasn’t a requirement.
