When to Travel


Thinking about the perfect destination to travel to, and when? Mapping out the weather patterns across Asia can be a bit of a minefield, particularly for those not “in the know”. Luckily, we have spent time researching the best times of year to travel to each of our destinations across Asia, so that our clients can enjoy the best balmy beach weather or the perfect temperatures for temple hopping, or when and where to experience the most exciting festivals and cultural events. For guidance and inspiration, browse our favourite itineraries that work well with each calendar month.

Southern Africa is a vast region with an astonishing array of landscapes, varying climates, seasonal monsoons and the ever-present African sun looming large. From the towering dunes of Namibia’s ancient desert to the refreshing green Winelands in South Africa, wildlife-drenched deltas in Botswana and pearly white tropical beaches in Mozambique, there is so much to be enjoyed… We can help you plan the best time to travel based on the weather in each destination; browse our favourite itineraries that work well with each calendar month.

Client Testimonials

I had a very lovely time and was looked after splendidly. My first visit to India could not have been better, save for being longer! But I shall return at some point and I shall look to you to make the arrangements.
- Matthew Nicklin, North India
We had a wonderful holiday - everything was perfect. Thank you for helping us to make a thoughtful plan to enjoy and make most out of our trip. The places we visited, the guides, the transportation and driver, the hotels selected... Everything was great!
- Jaime Benitez, South India
I thought the Ampersand team was outstanding. We couldn’t have hoped for anything more.

Everything you did for us whilst we were away was hugely appreciated, and Ampersand has been exemplary in every way. I'll always recommend you!

Difficult to articulate just how good the service from you and your team really was. We know you will continue to do well and hope we have the chance to seek your assistance again before long.
- Mr & Mrs Manson, North India
So many highlights to choose from! The hotels were amazing but Maya Villa was a highlight… I loved just hanging out in the hammock reading my book and watching the peacocks chase the cows!
- Krista Weir, Sri Lanka
I would recommend Ampersand without any hesitation!!! The best travel agent that I’ve ever had. Everything – from the individual care and attention in planning the trip, through to the efficiency of the agents on the ground in India – was handled brilliantly. An absolutely first-class service all round!
- Matthew Annable, Rajasthan, India
Without question, you put together the best trip I have ever taken. We were shown around like visiting dignitaries, the hotels were fantastic and the itinerary was just right. Everybody I know will hear about how amazing Ampersand is!
- Leslie Siben, India
Ampersand provided a bespoke and flexible holiday, tailored to my every whim. Their highly professional staff had only one goal which was to arrange an exceptional holiday and some unforgettable experiences in India. I have no hesitation in fully recommending them and they will be the first company I approach in the future - 10/10
- Anonymous, India
Ampersand’s preparation, attention to detail and interaction before and during our trip show exactly why good travel agents have a role in today’s internet booking age. They were a delight to deal with!
