Four reasons why you should travel in the fall

1. Costs

Airfares are usually significantly cheaper in the fall compared to the summer. Moreover, hotels, attractions and other travel necessities decrease in price after the peak season for vacation. By booking your vacation in the fall and saving on the big travel expenses, you can make the most of your travel budget! Use those extra funds to extend your vacation a few more days, enjoy a fancy night out, book a guided hiking tour, or purchase a couple more souvenirs!

2. Crowds

Most families choose to travel in the summer months due to school schedules. In the autumn, most schools are back in session, which notably reduces the number of tourists at top destinations. While summer travel has its perks—such as ideal weather, exciting festivals, and extended national holidays that add vacation days—waiting just a few months can make a significant difference. You’ll be able to enjoy the same iconic locations with fewer people around. This can be a true game changer for breathtaking spots like Machu Picchu in Peru or witnessing the stunning 'koyo' (autumn foliage) in Kyoto, where lighter crowds will let you fully take in the beauty - without unexpected interruptions in your perfect photo.

3. Climates

It is easy to forget that the seasons we experience in North America are different from the seasons in other parts of the world. For example, while it is warm and sunny in California in July, it might be pouring rain (with possible monsoons!) in vacation spots like Japan and Thailand. If your dream vacation consists of beach days and outdoor excursions, be sure to research the weather of your selected destination. Locations like Mexico, Spain, and Greece are great destinations in the autumn months due to the warm temperatures and lower chances of rain.

4. Celebrations

Some of the best festivals and events occur in the autumn months around the world! In South Africa, the Hermanus Whale Festival celebrates the return of the southern right whales and offers spectacular opportunities to see wild marine life up close. In Norway, the optimal time to catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights starts in September and extends into the autumn and winter months. And of course, who could forget Oktoberfest in Germany?
