Apsley Travel · Bespoke Luxury Travel
July is the year's busiest luxury month. The Mediterranean, the Greek islands, Sardinia and the South of France are at full season. The Great Migration river crossings begin in the Mara. Botswana enters its premium safari window. Indonesia (Bali, Komodo) is at its driest. The trade-off is price and crowds — July carries the highest premiums of the year in Europe.
July is peak European summer and the heart of the African Migration — plus Iceland, Patagonia (winter), and Indonesia's dry season.

Statistically mid-July, though they can begin late June or push into August. We book mobile camps that follow the herds for the best chance.
Hotspots (Mykonos, Capri, St-Tropez) are at peak. Sardinia, Puglia, the Peloponnese and Croatia remain calmer luxury alternatives.
