Best holiday destinations in March

Spring is finally approaching. You can avoid the searing heat of summer in India or Egypt by travelling now or get the best chance of seeing the Northern Lights in Iceland.

Iceland

Lying just south of the Arctic Circle, Iceland, the ‘Land of Fire and Ice’ is known for its Mars-esque landscapes, volcanoes and geysers, hot-water springs and glaciers, and soaring, snow-covered mountains. March is an ideal time to visit as the extremer weather has passed – and the chances of seeing the Northern Lights are still at their best.

Northern India

The Indian Subcontinent stretches from the snowy peaks of the Himalayas to the quiet and tranquil backwaters of Kerala, with palm-fringed coastlines and lush green forests in between. March is an ideal time to visit Northern India and undertake the classic Golden Triangle route. Temperatures are pleasant and most importantly, dry. March is also the month of Holi, the ‘festival of colour’, where vibrant powder paints are thrown in celebration.

Egypt

From Nile cruises to relaxing hotel stays, Egypt is at its prime in March as the country emerges from its winter and the weather's pleasant – making discovering ancient sites, including Luxor, a joy. Along the River Nile there are also warm breezes, which in April turn into the phenomenon known as khamsin – dry, hot and dusty winds that aren’t so pleasant.
