Cheap Vacations in Asia

Best time to take a vacation to Asia

Best Time to Go

Planning the best time for Asia vacations can be difficult if you want to trek around several countries. The geography ranges from extreme alpine conditions in Tibet and Nepal, to tropical rainforests in Southeastern Asia. Asia vacations in northern countries like Russia, some parts of Japan, and countries along the Caucasus Mountains, are best planned for the spring or summer, when temperatures sit between mild and comfortably hot. Autumn can be enjoyable for walking or cycling tours, as long as you pack warm clothes. Winter in these countries can be bitter, especially in Northern China and Siberia, but it is undoubtedly spectacular. Equatorial Asia, the Middle East, and coastal tropical countries are usually hot and humid all year, but can get chilly in mountainous regions.
