Where to Travel in Spring

Spring is the best season for city breaks: warm but not hot, everything in bloom and fewer tourists than in summer. Here are our picks for March, April and May.

After winter you want a change of scene, and in many countries spring weather is perfect for exploring on foot. It’s the time to see gardens in bloom, catch the sea before the real heat arrives and discover cities without the summer queues.

March

Japan

Late March marks the start of cherry blossom season. Japan is especially beautiful at this time, with parks, temples and riversides covered in flowers. It’s a very popular period, so hotels in Tokyo and Kyoto are booked well in advance. The exact bloom dates vary from year to year.

UAE and Egypt

March is one of the best times for a beach holiday in the Emirates: it’s warm, the sea is heating up and you can still walk around during the day. Egypt gets pleasant too, especially towards the end of the month.

Thailand and the Maldives

The dry season is still on, while Thailand gradually gets hotter.

April

South Korea

Cherry blossoms in Seoul bloom in early April. Spring is a popular time to visit Korea, so plan around the visa, which citizens of Uzbekistan need to get in advance.

Istanbul

In April the parks of Istanbul host a tulip festival, and the weather is right for long walks. It works well for 4–5 days or as part of a Turkey itinerary with Cappadocia.

Europe

Rome, Paris, Barcelona and Prague are warm in April and not yet overrun with tourists. Hotel prices are usually lower than in summer, except over Easter. For route ideas, see our guide to sightseeing tours of Europe.

Georgia

In spring the gardens of Tbilisi are in bloom and the old town is lovely to wander. You can add day trips to Kakheti and Mtskheta.

May

Turkey

The beach season opens in May. The air is warm, but the sea is still refreshing early in the month, which makes May a good time to combine the beach with sightseeing.

Greece, Cyprus, Montenegro

The season is just starting: nature is green, there are few tourists, and the weather lets you both explore and sunbathe. By the end of the month swimming is pleasant, though the water is still cool.

Vietnam

Nha Trang is at its best in May. It’s sunny and the sea is calm.

Spring for Different Travellers

  • Couples. Cherry blossoms in Japan, Paris in spring, Cappadocia.
  • Families with children. The UAE in March, Turkey at the end of May.
  • City lovers. Istanbul, Europe, Seoul.
  • Beach without the heat. Egypt and the UAE in March and April.

Things to Keep in Mind

Spring is full of holidays: Navruz, the May long weekends and, in some years, Ramadan and the Eid that follows it. Demand for flights and hotels rises on these dates. If your holiday falls on a public holiday, book early.

For Japan, Korea and Europe, allow time for the visa. Depending on the destination, the flight from Tashkent may be direct or involve a connection; our manager will find the options.

Short Trips of 3–5 Days

Spring brings plenty of long weekends, and they’re perfect for short getaways. Go for destinations with a short flight and a packed programme: Istanbul, Tbilisi, Baku, Dubai. In a few days you can see the main sights, try the local food and come back rested. Flight times matter for trips like these: a morning departure and an evening return give you more time on the ground.

Spring with Children

The spring school break is a good reason for a family trip. The UAE, Egypt, Thailand or Turkey at the end of spring all work well. If your child is interested in history and culture, consider Istanbul or Cappadocia.

When to Book

Cherry blossom season in Japan and Korea is one of the busiest periods of the year, and hotels in Tokyo, Kyoto and Seoul are booked months ahead. For Europe in spring, factor in visa processing times. Beach destinations over the spring break are also best booked early.
