Yemen
Ancient towers rise from desert sands, October to March cools the Arabian mystique
01 · Overview
The best time to visit Yemen is between October and March, when cooler days soften Sana’a’s old town and Socotra’s wilds. With 20°C to 25°C weather, it’s ideal for exploring Shibam’s mud skyscrapers, hiking Haraz, or diving Socotra. For milder heat, try September or April.
