Experience Travel Group’s Top Quiet Season Destinations

by Guest Post

The “quiet season” means lots of different things – it means periods outside of school and national holidays, it means times when the weather is not considered “optimum” in Asia, and it can even mean times that are stuck somewhere between high and low season! Confusing, right?

Well, sort of. It’s actually a well-kept travel industry secret that travelling in the “quiet season” is one of the most rewarding travel experiences going. Not only are hotel and flight prices lower, but there are less crowds and more space to explore and really get under the skin of the country. Even when the weather is considered “bad” – a little bit of rain is actually a good thing in our minds, as it makes the beautiful scenery in Asia all the more lush, tropical and down-right breathtaking. What’s not to like?

Check out our insider tips on the best places to visit in the “quiet season”.
