Autumn arrives in an explosion of colour, time to see those destinations on your checklist

Oktoberfest, autumn and average temperatures between 5-25°C (41-76°F), not to mention the off-season prices, October makes for exceptional European travel. While autumnal weather may not always be suitable for every outdoor expedition, it does make the region less expensive than its summer counterparts. Nestled between the most popular times, you’ll be able to sit on beaches in Amalfi, explore ancient civilisations in Malta and maybe even see snow in the northern regions, all for those shoulder-season special prices.
