Where to travel in autumn

Autumn is a season that feels made for travel, with softer light, comfortable temperatures, and a sense of places settling into their most enjoyable rhythm. Across Europe, destinations like Portugal, Greece, and Spain ease into shoulder season, while North Africa and the USA offer ideal conditions for exploring without the peak-season intensity. Safari season begins in South Africa, Argentina moves into spring, and islands like the Seychelles are calm and inviting.

Spring forward into March

 

March is a month of transition. Spring starts to emerge across parts of Europe, yet further afield in places like Japan and Saint Lucia, you’ll find some of the most rewarding travel conditions of the year. If you’re wondering where to travel in March, this is a time to combine cultural highlights with comfortable touring weather and reliable sunshine.

Discover some of our favourite destinations to visit in March.

Say no to April showers

April is a month that rewards careful timing. Spring brings milder temperatures across North Africa and parts of Europe, while tropical destinations benefit from calmer seas and balanced conditions before peak summer heat or heavier rains arrive.

If you’re deciding where to travel in April, this is a strong window for combining culture, coastline and outdoor exploration in places like Morocco, Bermuda, and Indonesia, without extreme temperatures.

Have a spring fling with the city break in May

 

As the year moves towards summer across the Northern Hemisphere, May opens a window where wildlife viewing sharpens, mountain skies clear and Mediterranean villages in Italy and Greece hum back to life. Dry season conditions are settling across parts of southern Africa and the Andes in Peru, making safari drives and high altitude exploration far more rewarding.
