Tailor-made Holidays To Arabia, Caucasus & Indian Subcontinent

Where to visit in June

June is one of the best months to visit the Caucasus, with Georgia and Armenia experiencing optimum weather. June is still a good month to explore Tunisia‘s archaeological sites and desert landscapes, where there are clear blue skies and warm temperatures. While it is warm, Jordan and Israel are other popular choices for a June holiday and can be a great time to visit. It is also worth considering that a Nile cruise in Egypt is outstanding value in June. Kashmir (India), with its tranquil lakes and lovely Himalayan vistas, is a perfect destination for a June holiday. After relaxing on a houseboat in Kashmir, why not explore the stunning monasteries and magical scenery of Ladakh – a land also known as the ‘Little Tibet’? Sri Lanka‘s Cultural Triangle and the beautiful beaches fringing the east coast are also in their prime in June. Another attractive area to explore before the school holidays is Aegean Turkey and Cappadocia.

The Hemis Festival, which takes place in June, is one of Ladakh’s most important events. In Israel, Jerusalem’s Festival of Light puts on a stunning show of interactive illuminations.
