Late summer and Fall is the ideal time to travel as the weather is perfect and there are fewer people. If you're looking for some inspiration on where to go, here are our top three destinations for Fall 2022!

1. Walt Disney World, Orlando, Florida

What better way to ring in the Fall season than by heading to Walt Disney World? At this time of year, you can expect beautiful weather, a great festival celebrating Seasonal changes, and lovely new fall overlays. The family vacation you always wanted is waiting for you at The Most Magical Place on Earth!

Check out the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival. This is a family favorite, and for a good reason. With over 25 global marketplaces, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

And what goes better with good food than live music? You can catch performances from some of your favorite bands every day of the festival. If you’re looking for a more family-friendly activity, take a stroll down Main Street U.S.A. in Magic Kingdom Park. The leaves will be falling, and the pumpkins will be out in full force, making for a perfect family photo op.

Fall also brings Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party. This special event is perfect for the entire family, with trick-or-treating, The Boo To You Parade and the Hocus Pocus Halloween show.

Guests are encouraged to dress up in their family-friendly Halloween costumes and enjoy the party.

No matter what you’re looking for, Walt Disney World is the perfect fall family vacation destination. So pack your bags and get ready for some fun!

2. Seattle Washington

There are a lot of reasons to appreciate Seattle. Scarves, sweaters, and coffee - that's all there is to it? I don't think so.

If the cool weather hasn't already sold you, consider that Seattle has remarkable landmarks, attractions, and more than enough quirks to keep you interested and active. Pike Place Market and the Museum of Pop Culture are excellent places to start your vacation. At these locations, you can see everything from fish throwing to a visual history of Hip-Hop. Pike Place Market is known as the "Soul of Seattle."

Since 1907, this nine-acre destination downtown has been one of the oldest and longest-running farmer's markets in the United States. Not far away, you'll find blobular architecture, the Museum of Pop Culture. MoPOP is like no other museum on Earth. Hands-on experiences, iconic artifacts, and ever-changing exhibitions add to an experience unlike any other.

Adventurous travelers will enjoy Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest. A short hike will take you into some of the most magnificent scenery in all of Washington state. A driving tour of the park would be ideal to see as much of the fall foliage as possible.

You're in the right spot if you like quirky and off-the-beaten-path locations.

Visit the "Troll Under the Bridge" found in the Freemont neighborhood. The hands of this giant sculpture hold a VW bug as if it had just plucked it from the street above.

If you find yourself near Pike Place Market and enjoy the smell of mint, stop by The Gum Wall. This unexpected and colorful display will either have you giggling or standing in complete disgust. Either way, it ranks high on the "quirk" factor.

We recommend planning your trip for September or early October, as the weather is perfect and the rains haven't yet started.

3. Munich Germany

Visiting Munich in the Fall allows you to catch the city's golden glow, highlighted by the changing colors of the trees.

Determined to get your daily steps in? Climb St. Peter's Bell Tower. Your 299-step climb will be rewarded you with the best view of Munich's Old Town.

If you're going on the weekend, plan to get there early as it can become crowded.

Munich's palaces invite exploration on crisp Autumn days. Visit the Nymphenburg Palace, which was a summer getaway residence for monarchs. Neuschwanstein Castle is another good option. You will be in awe of its splendor and will immediately understand why it was the inspiration for Disney's Sleeping Beauty castle.

Oktoberfest! Munich is home to the largest Volksfest in the world. The beer-fueled festival is over 200 years old and features regional delicacies. There are also traditional dancing and musical performances throughout the two-week-long celebration. The main areas can get a little rowdy at times.

Check out the Oide Wiesn area for a more sedate and traditional experience.

4. Oxford, Mississippi - The University of Mississippi

For a good reason, ESPN named Oxford, MS, the best college town in the United States.

Be sure to visit when the Ole Miss Rebels play football at home. You'll be engulfed in southern hospitality when you pre-game in The Grove. The Grove, complete with majestic oaks and sprawling spaces in the middle of campus, is famous for its tailgating. Think again if you're expecting to find hot dogs cooked by people in denim shorts. Here, people pull out all the stops and their fine china and silver for the occasion.

Floral arrangements are taller than the coeds in dresses and heels. As a visitor, you'll be welcomed into tents decorated in red and blue. Keep an eye out for the Zebra tent. It may be the most extravagant of them all.

Bibliophiles will feel welcome here, also. Rowan Oak served as William Faulkner's home and much of his inspiration for 40 years. After looking through the museum, you can stop by his grave. It's tradition to bring Four Roses, his favorite bourbon, and take a shot if you go. Then it's off to Square Books to find limited edition and signed copies of literary works of art.

You might be surprised by the food scene in Oxford. It is now a hotbed for incredible restaurants thanks to John Currence, a James Beard award-winning chef. City Grocery, Boure, Big Bad Breakfast, and Snack Bar are all excellent choices.

Another fantastic option can be found about 20 minutes outside of town. Located in a turn-of-the-century building, Taylor Grocery has been serving melt-in-your-mouth catfish since 1977.
