When to go

Where to travel in summer

Summer is when travel opens up in every direction, with long days, clear skies, and a natural pull towards big, memorable trips. Whether you’re chasing iconic moments like the Great Migration or exploring South America at its most rewarding is a time to travel boldly and make the most of it.

Where to travel in summer

’Tis the season to get away in December


December is a month of contrast. While winter settles across much of the Northern Hemisphere, summer takes hold further south in Australia, bringing long beach days and open road adventures. At the same time, snow transforms mountain landscapes into playgrounds for skiers and snowboarders in Canada.

If you’re wondering where to travel in December, this is a month when you can choose between sun-drenched coastlines, festive sailing conditions or crisp alpine air.

New year, new horizons in January


January is a month of contrast. Across much of Europe, days are short and temperatures low, yet elsewhere it’s peak season for sunshine, wildlife and once in a lifetime journeys. If you’re wondering where to travel in January, this is the time to think beyond the obvious. It’s high summer in Antarctica, dry season across parts of Southeast Asia like Thailand and Barbados in the Caribbean, and comfortably warm in the Arabian Gulf.

Winter your way in February


February is a month of variety. While winter continues across much of Europe, you can find late summer warmth in the Southern Hemisphere, thriving Costa Rican wildlife in Central America and the Caribbean, and Italian Alpine resorts in full swing. Whether you’re planning an active escape or picking out the best places to visit in February for warmth and atmosphere, these seasonal contrasts make it a wonderful month to travel.

Snow, onsens, and ramen: Discover skiing, Japan style

12 October 2026

Japan puts a very different spin on a ski holiday. Days on the mountain might be followed by a soak in a steaming onsen, dinner in a tiny ramen restaurant, or an evening wandering through a traditional snow-covered town. And there’s plenty of choice when it comes to where you ski. From Hokkaido’s famous powder to the hot spring villages of Nagano, the easy Tokyo connections of Niigata, and the winter landscapes of Tohoku, each region offers its own reason to head to the mountains.

4 ways to discover a different side of Dubai

08 October 2026

Think of Dubai and soaring skylines, impressive hotels, and sunshine might spring to mind. But look a little closer and there’s much more to discover. You could spend a morning exploring historic neighbourhoods beside Dubai Creek, swap the city for mountains and desert landscapes, try food from around the world, or simply find your favourite stretch of sand. With so much variety packed into one destination, you can experience Dubai very differently from one day to the next.

Why you should consider Thailand during green season

02 October 2026

When most people think of Thailand, they picture the dry, busy months - the packed beaches, the long queues at temples, the peak-season prices. But, outside of these peak months, Thailand’s green season reveals a softer, more atmospheric side of the country. The landscapes deepen in colour, the pace eases, and familiar places begin to feel more spacious, from temple courtyards and hillside trails to palm-fringed beaches.
