BONJOUR
on m'a dit que la mousson en inde du sud pour juillet était beaucoup moins importante sur la côte est que la côte ouest, goa étant carrément fermée en juillet et bombay en innondation durant ce mois ????
quelqu'un peut il confirmer ???
Et plus on va vers le sud, moins la mousson est forte ???
MERCI

Effectivement j'ai lu que la côte est plus facile que l'ouest pendant la mousson. Et Goa est fermé durant cette période.
Mais je ne sais pas si le fait d'aller vers le sud est mieux...
sab
Mais qui peut bien vous raconter ces conneries.
La mousson c'est la Vie en Inde... alors on ferme surtout rien.
La mousson c'est la Bénédiction des Dieux...
Arréter vos délires, et renseigner auprès de gens compétents qui y vivent... toute l'année...
Goa est un état... vous croyez qu'on ferme la Bretagne quand il pleut... c'est du bon sens, vous avez perdu votre sens d'intelligence, réfléchissez, devenez critique sur ce que vous lisez...
Je suis Chef d'entreprise en Inde, je gère 10 Salariés, un Chiffre d'affaire de 1 Millions d'Euro - et j'ai 450 personnes qui travaillent à temps partiel pour moi à travers tout le pays....et quand je lis certaines anneries de ce forum, cela me fait bondir... Si un de mes salariés réfléchis comme cela, c'est illico presto la porten CPE ou pas... vu qu'ici, il n'y a rien de tout cela....
Du bon sens, du bon sens, ne gober pas tout ce l'on vous dit, ne prenez pas pour argent comptant tout ce que l'on vous dit, renseigner vous, et réfléchissez...
Bonjour,
suis nouveau dans le forum.
Je suis d'accord avec vous, il faut changer les idées préconçues, imposées par les agences de voyages.
Je suis souvent en Inde du Sud. Ma spécialité est d'accompagner des pesrsonnes de mobilité réduite lors de voyages insolites et authentiques dans plusieurs pays du monde que j'organise pour eux afin de faciliter leur réintégration plus rapide et plus harmonieuse dans le monde des "valides". Ok une certaine utopie... je suis un puriste, un rêveur, un voyageur... un admirateur de l'Inde !
Avant tout j'essaye toujours de mettre en valeur le pays qui me reçoit, ses coutumes, ses droits... C'est pour cela que j'ai besoin de personnes qui partagent ma philosophie de vie et qui disent les choses telles qu'elles sont.
Actuellement basé au Kerala je suis à la recherche de destinations ou de points de chute authentiques pour faire partager les vrais visages de l'Inde.
Je ne suis pas une agence de voyage, j'essaye tout simplement de rendre le monde plus accessible à ceux qui ne peuvent à peine qu'en rêver.
si tu connais bien la region, je cherche a passer 3 semaines avec mes enfants dans le kerala et tamil nadu entre mi mai et mi juin, je cherche un chauffeur avec voiture, nous sommes 8. As tu une idee?
merci
stephanie
Bonjour,
je ne peux prétendre connaitre "bien" le Kérala, se serait très prétentieux de ma part. Je le connais pour y avoir été plusieurs fois et pour y avoir des contacts plus que sérieux. C'est un pays magnifique, mystérieux, grouillant de vie, immense...
Il faut voir ce que tu recherches.
Si tu es à la recherche de contacts avec les habitants du Kérala, de choses authentiques du monde rural, si tu fais l'impasse sur tout ce qui est européen pendant ton séjour, si tu es avide de connaître la vraie hospitalité indienne tout en restant préservé du côté hygienne et sécurité, tu es à la bonne adresse chez moi.
Cependant si tu cherches le confort des grands hôtels internationaux, les plages pour européens et les voyages organisés en cars climatisés laisse tomber je ne saurais te satisfaire.
Décrits moi ce que tu recherches lors de ton séjour et je t'aiderais.
PS : je ne suis pas une agence de voyage mais j'aime l'Inde, sa culture et ses habitants.
Amicalement
Emrys
bonsoir!
come tu as l'air de bien connaitre l'inde, j'ai une question à te poser: je voudrais y aller cet été et prendre des cours de chant.. connaitrais-tu une bonne "école"?
merci

juste pour te dire qu'on n'a jamais vu la moitié de la population européenne " hiberner" quand il pleut ou qu'il neige !😄
bombay : t'imagines 15 millions d'habitants sur les barques!!!!!!!! [ 7 fois Paris !! ]
goa fermé ? et pourquoi pas la Provence Alpes Côte d'Azur? !!!
sinon c'est vrai qu'en juillet il pleut moins sur la côte est, voire hélàs pas du tout 🙁
mais c'est, s'il ne pleut pas que tout est fermé !!!!!! même la vie
c'est la mousson qui fait vivre l'Inde
Puisque vous habitez l'Inde, pouvez vous me donner quelques conseils sur un voyage courant août dans le Nord de l'Inde. Je me renseigne sur le climat éventuel, car même si la mousson est importante et sacrée pour ce pays, ce n'est pas forcément la meilleure période pour visiter.
Qu'en est il de la mousson dans le nord de l'Inde au mois d'août ?
Quelques conseils de voyage ? de choses à savoir ?
j interfere dans cette discussion, meme si c est un peu tard...
je suis actuellement dans le Tamil Nadu, et viens de passer 2h avec une femme qui m a raconte son periple au Kerala qui s est tres mal passe.
3 semaines sous la pluie, du coup, oui, tout est "ferme", et meme si pas officiellement, il n y a personne dans les restos ni rien (qui voudrait y aller?)
malgre cela, les prix ne sont pas moins cher, cad que tout reste relativement tres cher, car c est l etat le plus cher (de loin), de l Inde...
Bref, elle m a tres fortement deconseille d y aller. je n ai pas encore pris ma decision.
quant au ton aggressif prodigue sur ce forum des qu on pose un peu des questions, je trouve ca insupportable. a quoi bon creer un forum?
de plus, on peut avoir le droit de vouloir passer des vacances pas sous la pluie, surtout si on veut se reposer et qu on accepte de payer cher...
J'ai lu votre post et je souhaite partir en Inde en juillet 2015 avec mon fils de 11 ans. Je ne suis jamais allé en Asie et j'ai lu qu'il y avait des risques sanitaires ... je ne veux pas prendre de risques pour mon fils. Cette destination me tente bien tout comme le Cambodge. Je voulais connaître votre avis sur la destination quand aux risques sanitaires et l'intérêt du voyage.
Hi everyone.
I’m planning a trip to Colombia in 2027.
The idea is to arrive in May.
From what I’ve gathered, that’s the start of the rainy season.
Can anyone confirm that it’s already raining a lot during that period?
I know the climate can obviously vary from one region of the country to another.
I’d really like to go straight to Leticia in the Amazon.
Any info on the weather at that time?
I’m also looking for a plan for an Amazon tour.
Specifically, a good, conscientious agency that does things right in terms of environmental respect.
I already did a tour in Peru 10 years ago in the Pacaya Samiria reserve, and it was amazing.
The simple reason was that the tour was on a motor-free canoe—we made no noise, so the immersion was total.
Is it possible to find a tour in Leticia that offers a motor-free boat excursion?
Thanks in advance for your answers, and fair winds to everyone!!
Hi! I’m on vacation from 10/31 to 11/7 and want to go somewhere sunny. I’m leaving from Toulouse and the flight can’t be more than 5 hours.
Any ideas?
Thanks for your help
We want to do a few safaris, visit villages, the mountains, see tea plantations, etc. But we also want to see turtles. We love snorkeling but aren’t experts—we’re just happy to see colorful fish and coral. We’ve always wanted to see turtles too, so the idea is still to see *something* underwater 😊
Can you tell us which regions to prioritize and which to avoid given the climate at this time of year? Thanks a million!
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.?
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.

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.
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
We’ve decided to go to Skopelos for 2 weeks at the end of April. What kind of weather should we expect? Any special things to know about this remote island?
Thanks for your tips
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?
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.
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! !
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.
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!
Marie
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?
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?
Thanks for your great tips!
