Fall is a beautiful season to escape behind the desk and visit Europe\u2019s most enchanting destinations. There are several advantages for travelling in the fall months such as less people, cheaper prices and more availability, but that\u2019s not all. This particular season brings out the best in fall colours. The trees are on the brink of saying goodbye for the winter and the bright hues of the leaves make for one incredible photo. Whether you have a weekend or want to spend a few weeks away, check out these best destinations for fall travel below:<\/p>\n
Touristy spots like Dubrovnik and Platvice Lakes National Park are swarming with visitors in the summer months, which make is pretty unpleasant to experience. Save your money and patience and go in October. It\u2019s still warm weather, the prices are cheaper, and the locals seem to be a lot happier. You also miss out on the long queues and overpriced attractions. You might even grab a beach to yourself!<\/p>\n
The Lake District is a popular destination for both locals and tourists alike, but it\u2019s a no-brainer to visit during fall.\u00a0 The changing of the leaves makes for one beautiful backdrop among the natural landscape. Walking along the lakes with a rainbow of colours makes you feel like you\u2019re in a painting. Cosy up to a fire on the crisp nights in a local pub and enjoy the regional forest parks during the day. It\u2019s a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the scenery without the crowd.<\/p>\n
Italy has to be one of the most popular destinations in the world. Summer brings international tourists, high prices, and overcrowded cities, while fall brings the festivals, more availability, and most importantly, the food & wine. Fall is prime time in Italy for harvesting grapes for vineyards, as well as celebrating truffles, chestnuts and chocolate. Each food has its very own celebration! Italy is a fantastic option to visit during these months as locals come out to celebrate more cultural traditions. If you\u2019re looking for a place to feel and act like a local, Italy is a great option.<\/p>\n
Bordering Italy, Switzerland keeps the fall vibes alive with the vibrant change of colours throughout the country. Gasp at the unreal beauty around Zermatt, celebrate in style in Lugano at the local festivals celebrating harvest season, or enjoy the cosy cafes in Zurich. It doesn\u2019t matter what destination you choose in Switzerland, they all will have the same ingredients; beautiful landscapes, lovely locals, incredible food, and killer mountain views.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re looking for your Prince Charming or Cinderella, your best bet is to head to Southern Germany. With over 25 castles in the region, you are bound to meet royalty one way or another! Fall also brings the uber popular Oktoberfest, which is a world-wide celebration held in Munich. Take a train south to visit some of the most picturesque landscapes ever created, especially in Fussen, where you can visit the photogenic Neuschwanstein Castle. Take a horse-drawn carriage to the entrance for the ultimate fairytale holiday.<\/p>\n
French wine regions seem like they have all the fun. They produce beautiful wines, cheeses, breads, pastries, chocolates, and other local delights that look and taste like perfection. Fall is a wonderful time of year to visit certain regions like the Loire Valley to not only experience to the variety of local treats, but to also experience the colours. The forests are on fire with deep reds and crisp trees, while the vineyards explode with orange, yellows and purples. It\u2019s something that can\u2019t be explained, it has to be experienced.<\/p>\n
Prices drop dramatically over the fall months as well as the temperatures. The sweltering temps in summer paired with the thousands of tourists can make for a deadly cocktail. Skip the summer heat and go in October. The tourists are gone, but the beauty and intrigue of Turkey is still there. Admire Istanbul\u2019s architecture, talk walks around the city\u2019s shops and enjoy a long stroll without the big crowds. Sample local street food or enjoy a nice coffee in a caf\u00e9. With less people, you don\u2019t have to be worried about beating anyone to the front of the line. The nice weather and cheaper prices are just a few reasons why you should visit Turkey after summer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
