October is just around the corner, and it’s bringing the autumn breeze and golden leaves with it. Many people love traveling during this time for a couple of reasons: the off-season discounts and the perfect weather for a romantic holiday! Grab your partner and plan your next escape to one (or two!) of these great vacation spots!
Tuscany, Italy
Mid-September into early October is the ideal time to do a roadtrip in Tuscany, a region at the heart of Italy. The temperatures are milder during the day, pleasantly cool at night, and the landscape is bursting with the colors, sounds and scents of country life!
Experience the tradition of the Vendemmia (grape harvest) and learn about the local wines and how they are made. Go truffle-hunting with your better half in the Tuscan forests or drop by a local inn to taste authentic Italian pasta with porcini mushrooms. Delicious!
Utrecht, Netherlands
Come autumn, Netherlands are a sight to behold! Shades of yellow, red and orange embellish the ancient canals present in Utrecht. This city has canals as old as the 12th century, with wharves and wharf cellars that are one of a kind in the whole world.
Currently, the cellars have been remodeled into cozy cafes, bars, restaurants and shops. The best way to experience this Dutch wonderland is by renting a boat and paddling your way through the colorful canals. Stop by for a warm beverage if it gets chilly along the way!
Lisbon, Portugal
If you’re looking for a budget-friendly option, Portugal’s capital, Lisbon, is at its cheapest after the summer tourists have had their fun and returned home. The temperatures are pleasant with highs around 25°C, and hotels and restaurants are offering incredible discount rates.
Explore the city’s history and architecture – without the masses of tourists cramming every corner – or hop on to a train at Cais do Sodré station. You and your soulmate can be lying on a beach in less than 30 minutes!
Ontario, Canada
Observe the theatrical transformation that autumn brings along throughout Canada’s Ontario province from late September through all of October!
You and your partner can paddle along in a canoe on tranquil lakes for the best views of maple trees and red oaks showing off their fiery tones reflected in the water. Take a drive on the world-famous landscape of the Niagara Parkway or, if you’d rather explore on foot, hike through 1000-year old trees to the cliff-side at the Bruce Peninsula National Park!
Seville, Spain
Spain has been all the rage among tourists this summer, but a fall trip is ideal for your wallet and romance! The streets smell of orange blossom, the shaded plazas are filled with locals drinking chilled beverages and snacking on Spanish delicacies, and the nights are long and pleasant.
The city’s historical center and flat landscape are perfect for spending your days walking around hand-in-hand, soaking in the sensational culture and Arabic heritage! Head to the nearest rooftop pool at Hotel Doña Maria if you need to cool down after all the sightseeing.
Embrace this fall with picture-perfect scenery and your best friend by your side! Wondering how you can get to these amazing destinations? Lots of travel companies have designed incredible, hassle-free honeymoon packages that are ideal all year round. Where will Yugo next?
