Pick Australia 🇦🇺 if you're going in…

March, April, May, June, August, September

Don't try to combine the Top End and Tasmania in the same trip — opposite seasons.

Pick India 🇮🇳 if you're going in…

January, February

Plan India by region, not by country — climate varies by 30°C across it on the same day.

Months where both are equally good: July, October, November, December.
