November
Short days, icy leaves, twinkling stars. November arrives and gets us running for our scarves. It also happens to be a great time to pursue places both warm and cold, from island bliss to Icelandic charm
We’ve hand-picked the ideas below to get your mind racing about where to travel in November. As ever, our luxury travel experts are on hand to give you detailed guidance and expert suggestions in choosing your trip.
Where to visit in November
Parting vines and banana leaf, the massif of Arenal – a lowly-rumbling stratovolcano – lumbers before you. We’ll lead you on a breathless, adrenaline-fuelled canyoning expedition: rappelling, hiking, down-climbing, and river-tracing, all with the backing track of the monkeys and tropical birds who rule this unforgettable wilderness.
Dry, bright, warm days on the Cape and in the winelands. Camps and Bantry bay, Cape Town test kitchens, wine tastings and even some Sabi Sands safari. South Africa is back and better than ever.
From Hanoi in the north to Ho Chi Minh in the south, Vietnam is one of the world’s most colourful countries. By November, Vietnam’s hot and wet summer season is drawing to a close, the temperatures mellow out and the rain reduces to an occasional drizzle. It’s the perfect time to visit.
Our Sri Lanka Travel Expert, Jihane says
“November is a great time to visit Sri Lanka, the summer crowds have disappeared and the winter ones are yet to arrive. There’s nothing more special than getting up close to elephants on safari, with no other vehicles around for miles. November is also the best month to spot leopards”.
Our hand-picked recommendations for where to stay and what to do
A true Chilean odyssey. From the deserts to Valparaiso and down to Patagonia. On this journey, you’ll do Atacama Desert stargazing, sand-boarding and dining, with an authentic meal prepared by a local chef (plus a few pisco sours, for good measure).
Our classic Iceland itinerary. Perfect for first-time visitors and even seasoned returners. The South Coast and Golden Circle, bookended by Reykjavik. Sólheimajökull Glacier Tongue ice climb, Silfra Fissure snorkelling/diving, Golden Circle by Super Jeep, whale watching and the Blue Lagoon.
A passage through two of South East Asia’s most beguiling countries – bustling cities, historic monuments and quiet beaches happily rub shoulders, content to vie for your attention. Don’t worry, we won’t make you choose – how does all three sound?
This classic experience starts you off in Quito, Ecuador (with emerging chefs and local artists), before taking in the Amazon and the Andes (for landscapes and ruins), and then diving head-first into the majesty of Galapagos (for wildlife and the exotic).
