Spring
Australia’s spring season, lasts from September to November for most of the country, and is characterized by mild days and cool nights in the south, although ‘spring rains’ are typical at this time of year.
In the Tropical North, this is the ‘build-up’ or pre-monsoonal season. Although still dry, humidity in the ‘Top End’ increases at this time of year. Most Kimberley and Northern Territory top end lodges close for the ‘wet season’ in late October.
Below is a selection of itineraries The Tailor recommends for travel in Australia at this time of year.
We look forward to helping you create a hand crafted Australian journey.
