Fall Getaway Destinations You Need To Visit
Monday, October 05, 2020Getaways for Fall for that are easy, fun and affordable! Autumn is the perfect time to take a holiday. Because the temperature cools off, crowds thin and prices drop. And it’s wine harvest time! So, for those who have lots of vacation days or only a few, 5 places for a Fall trip. But don’t say that I didn’t caution you. All are spectacular and will leave you wanting to stay longer…or go back for more! If you are in the UK or the USA, these Fall getaways are mapped out below. All you need to do is book your dream getaway!
Italy’s San Gimignano – Towers and Treasure
The Tuscan hill town of San Gimignano is for romantics or wine-lovers as a getaway choice. This Medieval village has a skyline of 14 tall towers, visible for miles. Since Fall is harvest, lots of fun activities! During your holiday, join in the grape stomping, savour the local food and wines. There is plenty to do not wine-related too: horseback riding, biking, trekking, Italian language, art or photography classes. Or lounge by the pool! Also, a walking tour of San Gimignano is not to be missed. And this 13-century walled town has many cafes. It's the perfect place to relax and sip a glass of wine or a cappuccino! Although, save some time to see the magnificent frescoes at San Gimignano’s Cathedral. And with many artisan shops selling handmade ceramics, linens and Tuscan specialities, San Gimignano delivers! Make sure to try the local porchetta and world-famous gelato champion at Gelateria Dondoli.Related: What To Do On A Trip To Hawaii

Travelling Easily and Inexpensively
To get to San Gimignano, fly into Florence and drive 35 incredibly scenic miles. Departing London, British Airways has direct flights into Florence, about $126 roundtrip and only a 2-hour flight. Travelling from the USA into London has never been as affordable. Because Autumn travel is less in demand, flights from $500 are not uncommon. Besides, you could add a few days in the UK to make this a Tale of Two Cities! And then take a flight from London to Florence.
In San Gimignano, stay at the Hotel Torciano. Their food, wine and hospitality are outstanding! As well as absolutely breath-taking views. Also, they will pick you up in Florence with advance request. And they have a great offer: only 50 euro per person for an overnight package, including a free wine tasting at Tenuta Torciano. Or stay in Florence and enjoy this culturally rich city.
