Where to travel in spring

25 March 2026

Spring is a season that opens doors across the world, bringing together fleeting natural spectacles, ideal touring conditions, and destinations at their most inviting. From Japan’s cherry blossom season to India and Vietnam at their most comfortable, it’s a time when culture, landscapes, and climate align beautifully. In the Middle East and North Africa, warm days arrive without the intensity of summer, while islands across the Caribbean, the Atlantic, and the Indian Ocean enjoy calm seas and reliable sunshine. It’s also a sweet spot for big journeys, with dry-season safaris in Botswana, clear skies in Peru, and quieter, sunlit days across Italy and Greece.

25 March 2026

Summer is when travel opens up in every direction, with long days, clear skies, and a natural pull towards big, memorable trips. It’s the season for contrast, from wildlife-rich safaris in Africa and wide-open adventures across Canada and the USA, to sun-soaked days in France, Spain, and Turkey, and tropical escapes across Fiji, French Polynesia, Indonesia, and Sri Lanka. Whether you’re chasing iconic moments like the Great Migration, exploring South America at its most rewarding, or settling into the rhythm of a Mediterranean summer, this is a time to travel boldly and make the most of it.

Where to travel in winter

25 March 2026

Winter invites you to travel in two very different ways, either leaning into the season or leaving it behind entirely. You could swap grey skies for Southern Hemisphere sunshine in Australia, Chile, or New Zealand, sail between Caribbean islands in warm, steady trade winds, or head for the Indian Ocean and Southeast Asia where beach days are all but guaranteed. Or, if you’re drawn to winter at its most atmospheric, there’s skiing in Canada and Italy, wildlife-rich journeys to Antarctica, and vibrant city breaks in places like Singapore during Lunar New Year. It’s a season of contrast, where sun, snow, and standout experiences all sit within easy reach.

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. Further afield, safari season begins in South Africa, Argentina moves into spring, and islands like the Seychelles are calm and inviting. As the season deepens, autumn colours arrive in Japan, and destinations across Asia and the Gulf offer reliable warmth, making it easy to blend culture, coastline, and sunshine in one trip.
