The best places to explore at this time of year
November is a little like May in South and Latin America. The conditions are balmy and dry and there’s fewer visitors around than in the peak season. Patagonia, Peru, and Ecuador are all fantastic and you may be able to take advantage of good deals before the peak season prices kick in. In Argentina’s Valdés Peninsula, the whale watching is fantastic and the warm season returns to the Galápagos, making snorkelling and diving spectacular. In Peru, it’s shoulder season, ideal for those wanting fewer crowds at Machu Picchu. In Costa Rica, the dry season shifts to the Pacific Coast.
