July

While the monsoon arrives in India, the drama unfolds in Africa. July marks the beginning of the Great Migration in the Serengeti and Masai Mara—nature’s greatest spectacle, best viewed from the privacy of a luxury tented camp. For those preferring cooler climes, this is the prime window for cruising the icy fjords of Alaska or exploring the Swiss Alps, where the meadows are greener than you can imagine. It is the month of raw nature.
