Our purpose
Asia is affected by different monsoon patterns at different times. For instance, while the islands in Thailand are getting plenty of rain in July, Bali is at the peak of dry season. If your itinerary is flexible, you can escape the ever-changing weather by grabbing an inexpensive regional flight. The ideal time to enjoy popular destinations is during the shoulder seasons, the month before and the month after monsoon season. During these times, there will be fewer tourists but still plenty of sunshine to enjoy! Arriving at the very beginning of the monsoon season is less ideal because seasonal businesses will have plenty of cash saved up following the high season. The employees are often ready for a break and can be less helpful after an exhausting season. You will still have to deal with increased rain but won't enjoy the same potential for discounts. Arriving in the middle or at the end of the low season is more ideal. Although there is an increased chance for bad weather, businesses are more willing to work with you. The start of monsoon season often gets delayed by weeks or even a month or two.
