Chapter 02

Why these and not others

The tag is editorial: our desk writes it on a month it has written up, never derived from the score. A country scored from climate normals alone carries no tags, so it is not here - and nothing rated below good is, however well it would fit otherwise. A country under an active travel advisory is left out of the recommendation; the advisory itself is on its guide.

Chapter 03

The same month, other reasons to go

The month rating is editorial and so is the tag that puts a country on this page - our desk writes both on a country it has written up. Daily budgets are editorial estimates for one traveller; eSIM prices are the shelf's cheapest plan at the standard rate.
