Autumn is underrated for travel. Crowds have thinned, prices have dropped, and many destinations are at their most visually striking — foliage in New England and Japan, harvest festivals across Europe, warm-sea swimming still possible in the Mediterranean well into October. These itineraries are timed to catch each destination at its autumn peak.
The key to autumn travel is understanding that 'autumn' means different things in different hemispheres and climates. Kyoto's maple season peaks in late November. Patagonia shifts from stormy spring into its own autumn by March. Each itinerary here is tagged with its ideal travel window and comes with month-by-month climate data so you can plan with precision.
