With the end of the school holidays, Tunisia, Jordan, and Israel experience a lull among visitors while enjoying lots of sunshine and warm weather. September marks the start of the ‘season’ in Egypt and Oman, and the holiday pricing is attractive for travel. September is also a good time to explore most of Sri Lanka and marks the end of the season for visiting Kashmir and Ladakh in India. The days in Jordan, Israel and Lebanon are pleasantly warm, with temperatures in the mid-to-late twenties and cool nights.

September is a spectacular month for festivals, including Ganesh Chaturthi in Mumbai and Snake Boat Racing in Kerala.
