Where to go on holiday in September

The kids are back at school but you’re not quite ready to give up your summer holidays, so why not jet off somewhere to relax and recharge before winter sets in?

Autumn is a lovely time to discover many parts of the world as temperatures remain warm, but many areas have quietened down, giving you more freedom to explore!

If you’re in search of a last-minute break, we have rounded up some top destinations you might want to set your sights on. 

 

Tenerife

Tenerife is the island of a thousand experiences. There are a thousand things you can do at any time of year, thanks to the mild climate and the enormous range of activities on offer on the largest of the Canary Islands.

In Tenerife, anything is possible every day of the year thanks to its climate, natural attributions and tourist infrastructure designed for fun for all the family. It's the island of a thousand experiences and the most popular of the 7 islands. Spend your days relaxing on the beach, hiking Mount Teide, watching a show, strolling around the marina or chasing adrenaline highs at a theme park.

Sit back on a restaurant's terrace and take in the views as you dine on some of the most. Take on Siam Park, Europe's largest water park and then race the family down waterslides up to 28 metres high and take in the lush tropical vegetation and incredible features modelled on Thai architecture. 

Toronto


Toronto is Canada's east coast wonder city. Canada’s answer to Manhattan, the young and vibrant city is infectious. Toronto is a top choice for a Canada city break holiday and after just one visit you will want to pack your bags and move here! Located on the shores of Lake Ontario, the easternmost of the Great Lakes, the surrounding Greater Toronto Area is the country’s cultural, financial and entertainment hub. This importance is what makes holidays to Toronto so attractive to people wanting to explore Canadian Culture.


The perfect add-on to any Toronto holiday is a trip to Niagara Falls - the world-famous, thundering natural wonder. The falls are an easy 80-minute drive or transfer from downtown, so you can visit for a day trip with our Toronto car hire or choose to stay for a night in a stylish Niagara Falls hotel.

As the largest city in Canada, Toronto is where the excitement is. Discover a diverse cultural landscape, a thriving arts scene, top attractions, multicultural food experiences and vibrant nightlife.

You may even be surprised to learn that it's one of the leading countries in the world for wellness and relaxation!

Each place in Barbados has a story, every meal is a celebration, and each day promises new experiences, discoveries and memories to last a lifetime. It’s easy to think it’s a once-in-a-lifetime type of trip, but you’ll soon find it’s the kind of place you’ll want to return to time and time again. 

Flocked by the crystal-clear waters of the Caribbean Sea, Barbados offers up something for every kind of traveller: the explorer, the historian, the foodie and the adventurer. 

Egypt


Revel under the sun in stunning Egypt, where temperatures are ideal all year round making it the perfect destination for a September getaway.

For adventure-seekers, deep into the desert, you’ll find Western Desert oases, the Sinai desert and the stunning Great Sand Sea. Rev your engine, a quad bike safari in the Eastern Desert is a rush you’ll find nowhere else. Or perhaps a hike up the mountains of Sinai is more your kind of thrill. 

You’ll find rich cultural experiences that span thousands of years of history in Egypt. Explore Ancient Egyptian temples, tombs and other monuments; get lost in time at museums that display thousands of ancient artefacts.
