Monthly Travel Calendar
January
Uganda
Uganda kicks off our Travel Calendar and is one of the best places to visit, if not the best place to visit in January. The country has a mysterious flair and is often referred to as the “Pearl of Africa”. With its lush green jungles, stunning national parks like the Queen Elizabeth National Park, opportunities to get close to Gorillas and Chimpanzees, bustling cities, beautiful large lakes and mountain peaks over 5,100 meters, we get why this diverse country has earned the title. In short, for adventure-loving travellers, there are few destinations that can offer as much variety to its visitors. It’s part of the reason why Uganda has been a popular destination amongst adventure travellers for years.
Gorilla and Chimpanzee Experience
Start your year with a bucket list item and travel to Uganda on our 8-day tour. Explore the Kibale Forest in depth while taking on the rewarding Gorilla and Chimpanzee treks and enjoy a Kazinga Channel Boat Cruise in the Queen Elizabeth National Park.

March
Costa Rica
Costa Rica is a non-negotiable holiday destination for any outdoor enthusiast and wildlife lover. From the moment your plane dips beneath the clouds as you approach San Jose Airport, you’re surrounded by exotic jungle-like landscapes. No matter whether your first stop is the Pacific Coast, adventure hot-spot La fortuna or somewhere on the Caribbean Coast, you will be rewarded with lush green scenery and an abundance of wildlife to match. If that wasn’t enough reason to get packing, Costa Rica has been referred to as “a 21st Century Environmental Leader” by the BBC. The country has committed to becoming carbon neutral by 2021.

April
Japan
Japan is a country that is confronting the contrast between tradition and novelty on a daily basis. Amongst the state of the art architecture and technology, you’ll frequently stumble upon historical and still meaningful sites. Historical cities such as Kyoto, which was once the capital of Japan, will give its visitors an in-depth insight into Japan’s past with its 17 UNESCO World Heritage sites spread across the city. Plus, at the beginning of spring the country transforms into a sea of beautiful pink cherry blossoms. The Japanese call this time of year “sakura” which translates as “cherry blossom”. Although it’s one of the most popular times to go, Sakura is a spectacle that is also very important to locals and shouldn’t be missed when visiting Japan.

May
Cuba
Cuba is a destination like no other. Due to the long-lasting communist government, a holiday in Cuba feels like you’ve travelled back in time rather than across the ocean. Wi-Fi is hard to come by and classic cars from the 50s are found driving on the streets of Havana. Combine this with the Caribbean living, historical sites, paradisiac beaches and fun activities Cuba has in store for its visitors and you have the perfect holiday destination for anyone who wants to get away from the fast-paced life and find the time to switch off. But don’t be fooled by the relaxed Caribbean way of life, there is a lot more to do and see in Cuba than just sitting at the beach. From learning about the history of the country to cocktail classes and guided tours of tobacco farms to vibrant and lively Havana, you won’t find yourself bored in Cuba.

Georgia

The country is peppered with rolling hills and valleys, charming towns, hidden cave complexes, picturesque mountain regions, historic buildings and romantic vineyards that make it feel rustic. In June, the region is experiencing very pleasant weather across the board, no matter if you’re exploring charming Tbilisi or wandering into the mountain region, making it the perfect time to get to know this hidden gem in person - before it’s discovered!

July
Peru
Many people only know Peru for iconic Machu Picchu. While it’s understandable that one of the most impressive UNESCO World Heritage Sites on earth shines over many other highlights Peru has to offer, it’s certainly important to do your research on Peru before booking your flight - or you might end up with way too little time in this experience-rich country. Are you after some gourmet food in South America’s culinary capital Lima? Do you want to make a stop at the Ballestas Islands, also known as the “poor man’s Galapagos Islands”? How about learning about indigenous cultures on Lake Titicaca, the largest navigable lake on earth? Or would you rather wander through the Peruvian Amazon Jungle and discover exotic flora and fauna? Peru is such a diverse country that it definitely delivers as a single country holiday.

September
South Africa
South Africa is the perfect destination for travellers who want diversity and aren’t solely after the remote “African Safari” experience. From exploring the metropolitan life in Cape Town to day trips to picturesque Table Mountain, one of the New Seven Wonders of Nature. From spotting “the big 5” in Kruger National Park to observing penguin colonies on the beach. From rustic vineyards to tasting some of the world’s best wines. South Africa leaves no wish unfulfilled. September is marking the beginning of spring in South Africa with warm temperatures which are ideal for exploring. It’s also a very good time for wildlife spotting in Kruger National Park as it’s the end of the dry season, meaning wildlife can’t hide behind vegetation.
Cape, Safari & Falls

Best places to visit in September
The changing of seasons doesn’t have to be a bad thing, with September comes exciting possibilities for spend-thrift travellers, which let’s be honest, is most of us. Why not save on flights and accommodation outside high seasons so that you can splurge on gelato and local market souvenirs, or bigger ticket experiences. Did someone say hot air balloon ride? Michelin star meal?
October
Nepal
It’s well-known that Nepal is home to the Himalayas and Mount Everest - the highest peak on earth. Therefore it’s not surprising that the country is a paradise for anyone who is captivated by snow-capped mountain views. But there are other highlights that are putting the country on the map for travellers, such as learning about Nepal’s history in Kathmandu, wandering the lush green tea region and spotting exotic wildlife on a safari in Chitwan National Park. October is undoubtedly the most popular time to visit Nepal, when the end of the rainy season has left lush scenery behind and clear blue skies are offering unspoilt views of the Himalayas.
