For the foodie at heart, who also loves a bit of culture and history, Martha's Vineyard Oyster Fest celebrates local seafood and the brilliant people behind it.

Coastal Maine

Escaping to Maine in the autumn will make you feel like you’re in the middle of a painting. Between Acadia National Park, Rockland's picturesque coastline and Portland's cuisine, the state has a lot to offer this season. Staying seaside, visitors can enjoy whale watching in early fall or shall we suggest a windjammer cruise as a great way to see the everchanging foliage. Experience the best of autumn during its peak, typically mid-October. Browse flights to Augusta, ME, flights to Bar Harbor, flights to Portland or flights to Rockland. 

New Hampshire

In search of truly radiant fall foliage? You're unlikely to find anything better than the colors of New Hampshire. For amazing views, take a scenic hike through the White Mountains. Or if you're a bit more adventurous try your hand at zip lining, rock climbing, kayaking or horseback riding. Just be sure to finish your day with a fresh slice of pie with apples picked from Lebanon's very own Patch Orchard. Browse flights to Lebanon, NH. 

Vermont

Did you know that nearly three-quarters of Vermont is covered in forest and, with a high concentration of maple, birch and beech trees, you can expect nothing short of breathtaking displays of fall foliage during your getaway. A fan favorite for a romantic rendezvous is Stowe, where you and your sweetie can get cozy and ride on the ski gondola for a bird’s-eye view of nature's most dazzling show. Traveling with the family? Plan a stop at Stowe Cider for a sip of something seasonal. And don't forget Ben & Jerry’s ice cream factory, an essential Vermont experience. Vermont’s fall foliage usually peaks in the first two weeks of October, so act fast! Browse flights to Rutland, VT. 

The Adirondacks

Upstate New York's Adirondack Region has one of the longest fall foliage seasons in the country, providing quite possibly one of the best fall getaways for diehard leaf-peepers. ADK is home to only a few tree species, which means almost all of their autumnal colors change in near perfect unison. With more than 2000 miles of hiking trails along forested paths, that lead to bustling waterfalls and stunning summits, your eyes will be in for a real treat. The colors of the Adirondacks last through October, usually peaking mid-month. Need a place to stay? Allow us to suggest truly disconnecting by opting to stay at one of the area's renowned Great Camps. Browse flights to Saranac Lake, NY.
