Pick Indonesia 🇮🇩 if you're going in…

April, May, June, July, August, September

Avoid Bali in late Dec–early Jan (rain + crowds + premium pricing).

Pick Thailand 🇹🇭 if you're going in…

January, February, November, December

If you visit in monsoon season, switch coasts instead of staying home.

Months where both are equally good: March, October.
