😎Bonjour
Je sais que ce n'est pas la meilleure période pour y aller, mais je ne peux pas y aller à un autre moment.J'aimerais savoir si c'est insupportable au niveau climatique ou si c'est supportable.
Merci

Oh pôvre,
J'y vais moi-même cette année et mon expérience ne provient que de la chaine "voyage" ... où j'ai vu des trombes d'eau tomber sur Hanoi - d'après ce que j'en sais ce n'était pas exceptionnel.. mais il faut se resituer dans le contexte où il fait chaud et où ces pluies momentanées viennent rafraichir l'atmosphère -franchement je crois qu'on ne peut pas parler de "climat insupportable" car ici tout est dépaysant, tout est "autre" et le climat ne prend pas la même importance que la pluie pour un Parisien qui voit son week-end gâché.😇
Même sous la pluie tropicale vous ne serez probablement pas déçu par la découverte de ce pays que je connais bien ... autrement qu'en août!- j'espère qu'un forumiste vous donnera des renseignements pris sur le terrain -
Bon voyage car j'espère que vous ne renoncerez pas - Cordialement - Kimtwo -

eh eh, apparement à partir du 13 aout le temps doit etre meilleur!!!!!!!
merci Mr petre (si ça c'est pas de la précision.......😎======> on même droit aux cartes satellites!
Bon treve de plaisanterie, comme partout maintenant il faut s'attendre à des conditions meteos plutot capricieuses et déreglees, cependant il est vrai que certains pays ou plutot devrais je dire lieux sont propices à un meilleur climat en aout, exemple pur ma part on m'avait dit de ne surtout pas y aller à ce qui correspond à l'été en france, j'y suis allé en avril (censé etre juste avant le debut de la saison des pluies qui debute en mai et voit son apogee en sept-octobre) et j'ai autant ramassé de pluie qu'à la reunion à la saison des pluies.....va comprendre.... suivant ou tu te trouve, au nord ou au sud, le climat est tres variable.......
http://www.vina-pix.com/...tnam-d-question.html Question : Quelle est la meilleure saison pour venir au Vietnam?Réponse : Le Vietnam est soumis à un climat tropical régit par la saison sèche et par la saison des pluies (la mousson). Toutefois l'expression de ce climat variera en fonction de position géographique de votre séjour. La saison des pluies débute en Mai - Juin et se prolonge jusque Novembre. La période la plus pluvieuse se situant vers Septembre-Octobre Dans le sud Vietnam : C'est un climat presque idylique, la saison sèche est chaude et très ensoleillée, tandis que la saison des pluies reste très très relativement humide, comptez sur une bonne averse quotidienne qui ne perturbera pas vraiment vos activités extérieures. Comptez sur des températures supérieures à 30 degrès tout au long de l'année. Dans le nord Vietnam : Le climat est difficile. La saison sèche se caractérisant par des températures assez fraiches (15 degrès) meme si vous etes sous les tropiques, alors que la saison des pluies est littéralement étouffante (très chaud et très humide). dans tous les cas il y a des inconvénients a venir dans le nord. La période précédant la saisons des pluies, Mars-AVril s'avérant etre la plus propice pour visiter le nord.

Je suis allée dans le Nord du Vietnam (de Sapa à Hué en passant par Hanoi et Halong) en Aout il y a 3 ans.
Nous avions eu un seul problème lié à la météo mais qui est assez exceptionnel quand même. Quand nous sommes arrivés a Hanoi pour y rester trois jours, il y avait un typhon sur la baie d'Halong (interdiction de naviguer) et nous, nous avons eu la queue du typhon à Hanoi donc une journée de pluie avec un vent trés fort. Cela ne nous a pas empéché de visiter des temples au centre d'Hanoi mais je pense que je ne me serais pas risquée à faire des grands trajets en voiture...
Sinon, la météo est agréable de Hanoi à Hué. Il y fait chaud (environ 30-35°C) mais curieusement, la moiteur fait passer ces hautes températures. Mais je pense que cela dépend des gens. Pour nous, c'était bien mais d'autres ne supportent pas ce taux d'humidité. Il pleut environ une heure par jour vers 17h mais c'est une pluie relativement chaude.
En revanche, plus au Nord à Lao Cai et Sapa, les températures sont plus basses et on sort son pull le soir ! Il pleut comme à Hanoi (sauf que si tu as prévu un trekking long, ca peut être assez désagréable. Nous avons fait une semaine de trekking dans la jungle thailandaise et là, c'était plsu difficile à supporter).
En tout cas, le Vietnam est un pays merveilleux, envoûtant et trés riche culturellement. Il ne passe pas un jour sans que j'y repense... Bon voyage !

Pour ne pas avoir de problèmes, je ne prévois rien🙂
Le site de météo du ViêtNam donne une précision sur 15 jours, et quand je débarque au ViêtNam, je trace mon plan d'après les prévisions. Un trajet en avion de 40 à 80 euros me transporte dans un autre coin où il y a du ciel bleu!

Hi,
We're leaving on June 19th for an 8-day road trip in South Iceland. I've heard that even in summer, it's cold and the weather can change several times a day. Should we mainly pack winter gear, like a K-Way, fleece, down jacket, beanie, etc.?
Thanks for your tips!

Hi there,
For those who’ve experienced it, what’s the weather like in Shanghai at the end of December? I’ve heard it’s cold, but coming from France, is the winter milder than in Lyon, for example?
I’m tempted to spend the Christmas holidays in Shanghai and the surrounding areas (Nanjing, Suzhou) with my family—kids are 11 and 2. It’d be a bummer if the little one catches a cold over there.
Generally, is this a good time for simple family visits to the main spots, restaurants in the city, indoor heating, and outdoor walks?

Hi everyone, I’m planning a trip to Mauritius—anyone have advice on when to go? I’m thinking April, May, or June for my stay. Which month would you recommend for the best beach weather, sunbathing, and exploring the island? Thanks!
Hi,
we’re planning to travel through Patagonia (Chile and Argentina) in February and March 2027.
From a seasonal and weather perspective, at that time of year and with hiking as our main activity, is it better to explore Patagonia from south to north or the other way around?
Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone,
I’ve planned a three-week itinerary for this summer, from August 9 to 27, in Sri Lanka: Negombo – 1 night Sigiriya and the Cultural Triangle – 4 nights Kandy – 2 nights Ella – 3 nights Tangalle – 6 nights Colombo Airport – 1 night
I know this isn’t the ideal time for the south since the beach conditions aren’t great, but we’ve booked a hotel with a pool and won’t be swimming in the sea. We want to relax after all the travel since we’re bringing our two kids, aged 6 and 8.
I know the east would be better, but (i) I’m struggling to find suitable accommodation, and (ii) it adds a lot of travel time, and my kids can only handle about 3 hours at a stretch.
I looked into Arugam Bay, but it’s a 7-hour trip back to Colombo from there.
I’ve checked every weather site imaginable, but they don’t all agree. Do you think we’ll spend our whole trip in the rain, or is the monsoon in the south mostly limited to the sea, as I’ve read?
I’m worried about ending up in the middle of a natural disaster with my two young kids, given recent events.
Thanks for your advice! S

/hello, coming from China-Beijing - on 07/04 we're thinking of heading to Korea for 3 weeks. First off, we'd like to know what to expect weather-wise
hi
After reading quite a few posts and buying a guidebook, I’m still struggling to finalize my suitcase.
Given that we’ll be visiting both islands during our road trip and suitcases aren’t exactly expandable,
I’ve noted that temperatures can be changeable—but should I pack more winter clothes than summer ones?
Thanks for your help

Hi there. On my itinerary from São Luís to Jericoacoara, I’ll be passing through the Lençóis. Is there any point stopping there this time of year? Apparently, the lagoons are dry, but aside from the lagoons, is the surrounding landscape still interesting enough to warrant a 1- or 2-day stop? Thanks in advance for your help.
Hi,
We’ve booked our flight tickets and we’re leaving from October 29th to November 13th for Mauritius.
I just reserved our accommodation in Cap Malheureux.
We’re used to hot and especially very sunny destinations like Oman, Jordan, Uzbekistan...
If you can reassure me about the period—can we expect sunny weather? I’m really dreaming of discovering Le Morne Brabant under beautiful sunshine...
Thanks
Hi everyone,
I need to go to Sri Lanka at the end of January.
I’ve seen that many roads, hotels, and parks were closed after the cyclone, which unfortunately caused a lot of damage.
Does anyone have more information?
Would it be wiser to postpone our trip?
Thanks, Alain.
Hi,
I’m planning a trip to Oman, probably the first half of February to avoid the extreme heat and Ramadan.
But after checking various weather sites and reading accounts, I’m a bit worried about rain, which can apparently be frequent and heavy in February. I’d love to hear from travelers or locals who’ve been there recently.
What would be the ideal month to explore Oman without extreme heat or rain? November?
Also, it’s best to avoid visiting the wadis on weekends—does that mean Saturday and Sunday?
Thanks in advance for your tips!

Hi everyone,
This year, 2026, I can only get away in April and May. I never travel during these months usually, and from what I know, they aren’t the best for India. But in such a big country, there are always spots that are better than others weather-wise.
Which region would you recommend? Given that I’ve already traveled quite a bit in this country, and in any case, I’ll be discovering places I don’t know yet. No need for a major tourist hotspot or luxury comfort.
I was thinking of Meghalaya???
Up north?
Thanks for your ideas!

Hi everyone,
We’d love to return to India next year for 3 weeks (we visited Rajasthan about fifteen years ago). Unfortunately, we’re tied to traveling in September, and our initial plan was to explore Himachal Pradesh. However, it seems like that might not be the best month for this region.
Could you share your experiences from that time of year in Shimla, Manali, Dharamsala, or even the Spiti Valley—in short, anywhere in Himachal Pradesh? Otherwise, which region of India would you recommend for a September trip?
Thanks so much!
Hi everyone, I’m planning a trip from mid-January to the end of February but I just can’t make up my mind 😕
I’ve looked into a few different options: Brazil, Cambodia, and Ecuador. The last one really appeals to me, but what’s making me hesitate is the risk of our trip being a bit too rainy (literally ),
We’re more drawn to the Andes, exploring colonial cities, typical villages, markets, and a bit of the coast. We’ve already gotten a taste of this in Bolivia, Colombia, and Chile. Plus, we’d love to do part of it by car since we’re used to driving at our own pace and stopping whenever we feel like it. Anyway, time’s running out, and I need to decide so I can finalize a route and book the tickets!!
Can anyone help me make up my mind or decide to postpone it for later? But for this year, I don’t have any other time slot to travel. Thanks for reading this far! !
Hi there,
I’ve planned a trip to Asia for the first half of November. I’ll arrive in Singapore at the start of November for about 3 days, and I’ll leave from Bangkok in mid-November.
In between, I’d like to gradually head north to visit some less touristy islands on the Thai coast.
Since the weather is a big risk during this period, I’d love to hear your recommendations.
I’m looking for: sunshine, snorkeling, beaches, nature / jungle in places that are easily accessible without too much transport to make the most of my trip.
Thanks for your tips!

Hi there,
We’re planning a trip to Chile this coming August and would love to head down to Chiloé. We’ve heard that as we go further south at this time of year, the weather gets pretty rough.
What’s the weather like in Chiloé in late August/early September? What activities can we do? And which ones become really tricky because of the weather?
Thanks in advance for your tips!

Hi everyone!
So great to be back on this forum after being away for—I don’t even know what!
I’m planning a trip to Malaysia in July with my 5-year-old son. The thing is, I’m not sure which coast to choose. AI keeps telling me east one minute and west the next. Which spot is least affected by rain during this time?
Thanks a bunch

Hey everyone! 🙂
Just giving you the quick context: A group of friends and I are planning a trip to South Korea (Seoul/Busan) at the end of June/July next year. It falls right in the middle of the monsoon season, but we don’t really have other availability options.😕
I’d love to hear from people who’ve visited the country and these cities during this period—basically, is it not as bad as it sounds, or should we just cancel our tickets (we don’t mind the heat, it’s mostly the rain that scares us).
I know there are plenty of indoor activities, but do you think we’ll still manage to get a few sunny days, or will it be torrential rain for our entire 2-week trip?
The only other country we’ve visited during the rainy season is Brazil (in the northeast) around the same time, and honestly, aside from a few really annoying downpours, we had sunshine most of the time and it was awesome. That said, the climate is totally different, so I’m not sure how relevant the comparison is.
Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to read or reply to this post! 🙂
Hi everyone.
Not sure if guidebooks, agencies, and other tour operators are keeping up by changing their visiting hours and offerings.
Personally, I see a promising opportunity here—jumping on this adaptation to extreme climates before others do, since they’re inevitably coming.
From my own travel experience, I’ve met a few guides so far who are starting to adjust, like in Egypt, Kenya, Senegal, and elsewhere.
They avoid crowds and the hottest hours by starting their tours around 6–7 AM, when it’s cooler.
Yeah, you’ve gotta wake up early, but the payoff is so worth it. 😴
If you’ve got any great tips like this, why not discuss them in this thread and share addresses or websites where the people in charge have realized climate change is real and are adapting? 😊
Hi there,
I’m planning a trip to Namibia in 2026.
I’m torn between visiting the Fish River Canyon and the Caprivi Strip / Victoria Falls.
I’d also love your advice on the best time to travel for wildlife viewing and pleasant weather.
I haven’t chosen a tour operator yet... since I’m traveling solo, I’d prefer a small-group escorted trip. Has anyone traveled with a local agency and what’s your feedback or advice?
Thanks so much!
I’m taking a month-long trip to northern Argentina throughout September. Buenos Aires, Iguazu, Salta, Humahuaca, Cafayate, and if time allows, La Rioja. I’m unsure about what clothes to pack. What are the temperatures like in September?

It seems that in recent years, January and February in Bohol have seen an increase in rainy periods. Have any of you noticed this?

Hi there,
I’m thinking of visiting Cap Corse in the second half of February, specifically Rogliano. Renting a house.
I’ve been told, “Oh no, not a good time—it’s the season for strong winds, Mistral, Tramontane, etc.” What do you all think? I’m now hesitating

Hello, We’re heading to Finnish Lapland near Rovaniemi as a family at the end of February with two kids (8 and 14 years old). We’ve got direct flights with Luxairstours. The itinerary is already set, but I’m wondering if anyone has traveled with Luxair before and knows exactly what kind of clothes they provide on the second day? The agency just told me it’s a heavy-duty cold-weather suit. I’m thinking we should get Sorel Caribou boots, maybe second-hand. Here’s what I’ve already planned:
- Thermolactyl leggings and tights from Damart for the whole family as a base layer.
- A first layer of Damart socks + Nordic Stocks socks in 70% merino wool for all four of us.
- Loose fleece layers, including some Polartec.
- Ski pants for hikes.
- For my son and me, a The North Face Himalayan down parka with a hood.
- A ski parka for my husband and my 14-year-old daughter (she *really* wants a Roxy one—I hope it’ll be warm enough).
- For myself, for the flight and the first day at Santa’s village, I’ve packed The North Face winter hiking pants, a long-sleeve merino wool top from Decathlon (thin), a fleece, and my big parka.
I’m wondering if I should just pack fleece joggers or sweatpants for the kids and my husband, at least for the first and last days, to be comfortable on the plane? I’m also planning to buy balaclavas and neck warmers in addition to our beanies, as well as mittens for all of us. I really need advice because I have no idea—I’ve never been skiing! Also, for a 4-night, 5-day trip, should I pack a second set of base layers, like from Odlo?
Of course, I’ll be leaving cotton clothes out of the suitcase.
As you can tell, I’m someone who gets cold easily—especially my feet, hands, and ears—so that’s my biggest worry. I *don’t* want to be cold, even at -20°C during dog sledding, snowmobiling, or aurora hunting when we might be standing still. We won’t be in the city, and the kids will likely spend most of their time outside, as they usually do.

Hi there!
I’m planning a 10-day trip to Greenland in early August.
Could anyone tell me what kind of weather and temperatures to expect?
I’ve heard there are mosquitoes—is that true?
Thanks!😊
Sunny destinations in October???
Not too much rain.
Martinique, Mexico, Dominican Republic, Mauritius, Cape Verde, or somewhere else?????
Any tips? Thanks for your help
Hi there, I’m planning a trip to Thailand from October 16 to 29, 2025, with my two teens.
We’d love to explore Southern Thailand (for the beaches...).
I’ve read that it’s the end of the rainy season—do you think it’s a bad idea or not?
Also, I’m familiar with traffic in Asian countries—it’s pretty challenging.
Do you think I should go through an agency for a well-defined itinerary?
Or do you have any tips for hotels and getting around?
Looking forward to hearing from you, and thanks in advance! 😊
