September
Armenia
June to October are the best months for visiting Georgia. It can get fairly hot in Yerevan (especially in July and August when temperatures can pass 30 degrees Celsius), although the mountain areas will be relatively cooler, with Spring-like conditions for most of the time (although temperatures can drop below zero at the altitudes of more than 3,000 metres even during this period).
Bhutan
The summer in Bhutan lasts from June to September. This more or less coincides with the rainy season, which although not as severe in the highlands (where you are more likely to visit) as in the tropical south of the country, can lead to roads being sometimes blocked due to landslides. September is therefore not the ideal time to visit Bhutan. Spring (March to May) and autumn (October and November) are better.
Botswana
September and October can be compared to Spring in the Northern Hemisphere, a delightful time of year to visit Botswana. October, however, can be very hot, particularly towards the end of the month. Temperatures average 15- 31 degrees Celsius and you may experience the occasional rain shower towards the end of October. Any discomfort from the heat is offset by the excellent game viewing at this time of year due to the lack of thick vegetation and the water holes are drying up.
Burma (Myanmar)
We do not recommend visiting Burma from April to September, when the temperatures are very high (reaching up towards 40 degrees Celsius in April); the rainy season begins in May and lasts throughout the summer months.
China
Spring and Autumn are the best months to visit China in terms of the weather. Days should be warm and sunny with only occasional rain. This is, however, the peak season and some of the more popular tourist sites (the Great Wall or the Terracotta Warriors, for example) can be very crowded.
Egypt
The hottest part of the year is coming to an end. September is a good time to visit Egypt, with generally blue skies and sunshine throughout the country.
Georgia
June to September are the best months for visiting Georgia. It can get fairly hot in Tbilisi (especially in July where temperatures can pass 30 degrees Celsius), although the mountain areas will be relatively cooler, with Spring-like conditions for most of the time (although temperatures can drop below zero at the altitudes of more than 3,000 metres even during this period).
Iceland
September sees the end of the brief summer season and the start of some colder weather, but the sights are less crowded and most hotels and guesthouses are still open. There is also the chance of witnessing the amazing Northern Lights at this time of the year.
India
North: By September the summer monsoon is coming to an end, and there are occasional showers. Temperatures often pass 30 degrees Celsius but the air is clear after the rains and the peak tourist season hasn't yet begun so the visitor sites are less crowded. Himalayas - September is one of the best times to head for the hills and visibility is at its best following the summer monsoon.
South: September is hot (up to 40 degrees Celsius), but usually dry and clear.
Iran
Autumn is the ideal time to visit Iran. The really hot days of summer are over and winter has not yet begun. Days should be warm, sunny and dry.
Jordan and the Holy Land
September is an excellent time of the year to visit Jordan and the Holy Land. Days should be warm, sunny and dry.
Kenya
Kenya straddles the Equator and is sunny and hot for most of the year. From July to September there is little or no rain, and it is therefore one of the best times to visit Kenya. This is also the period of the great migration in the Masai Mara.
Lebanon
Lebanon has a Mediterranean climate, with variations because of the mountainous interior. In September it is hot and sunny on the coast, with little or no rain. In the mountains it is generally fresh and sunny during the day.
Namibia
Namibia is located in the tropics and is an all-year-round destination which is mostly rain-free. From June to September (winter) it is pleasantly warm during the day, but noticeably cooler at night. This is a great time for wildlife viewing in Etosha as the longer grass has been grazed, making it much easier to spot the animals on the open plains.
Nepal
September, October and November are excellent months to visit Nepal. This is the start of the dry season and days should be sunny and warm with excellent visibility.
Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka's temperature varies little throughout the year, with maximum day-time temperatures around 30 degrees Celsius, with the minimum usually above 20 degrees. It is generally slightly cooler in the hills. The summer rains are over by September and it should be dry and sunny.
Syria
Spring and autumn in Syria offer warm, bright and sunny days and minimal rain. September is therefore an excellent month for a visit.
Tanzania
Generally speaking the highlands (where the gameviewing takes place) enjoy a temperate climate, whilst the coast is hot and humid year round. July to October are the best months for visiting Tanzania. There is very little rain and superb gameviewing conditions.
Thailand
September is hot and humid in most of Thailand, with frequent rain.
Tibet
September is a good time to visit Tibet, with pleasant daytime temperatures (around 13 degrees Celsius) and generally dry conditions.
Uzbekistan
May, June and September are the best months to go to Uzbekistan. Days should be sunny, dry and warm.
Vietnam
There is no ideal time to visit Vietnam as there are distinct regional variations between the Northern, Central and Southern regions. September is one of the hottest times of the year, with rain always a possibility in the central and southern parts of the country and occasionally there are typhoons in the north.
