Fall Vacation Ideas

The fall offers families the chance to take advantage of lower rates and smaller crowds. Since summer tends to be the peak tourist season for most attractions and travel packages, families that wait for fall can find discounts and great options. Here are some great Fall Vacation Ideas that you might not have thought about!

Take a Cruise in the Fall

Fall cruises are known for their deep discounts and reduced rates because cruise lines are more desperate for customers. Prices for cruises in the Caribbean are often reduced by half, but this is not the only destination that benefits from summer fading. Families can find reduced rates on cruises in the United States, Europe and other parts of the world. It is even possible to book fall foliage cruises that let you experience the beauty of landscapes changing colors without driving or paying for gas.

Go to Disney World in the Fall

Disney World is known for offering hotel and resort discounts during the fall to attract visitors. Prices are often cut 20 to 30 percent as the popular destination struggles with children returning to school and parents losing interest in the park. The fall leads to smaller crowds and easier access to attractions. In addition, Disney offers free dining plans during the fall as an extra incentive and promotion for families that purchase a vacation package.

Go to Europe in the Fall

Travel packages for vacations in Europe can be purchased at a reduced cost in the fall. Flights are also much cheaper as leaves start to turn yellow. In addition, as the weather cools in Europe, reservations are easier to acquire. Traveling during the off-season is one of the best ways to experience the true culture since the number of tourists decreases dramatically. The cooler weather is an added benefit if you are visiting traditionally hot summer areas such as Greece or Italy.
