Suggested itineraries in November
Winter has arrived in the UK and many take this opportunity to lap up Asia's warmer climes. This is an ideal time to visit southern India: the monsoon is over and everyone comes out to play. On a relaxing cruise on the marshy backwaters of Kerala you can see birdlife from your private deck. In Cambodia, the countryside is lush and cool from recent rains and the main influxes of tourists are yet to arrive. Take this chance to see the mystical ruins of Angkor Wat or explore the relaxed beach resorts in the south.
