TripAdvisor.com releases the top 10 fall travel destinations based on popularity and how it fits American’s budgets. Based on information gathered by TripAdvisor.com, Americans will be traveling to these top 10 destinations this autumn.
That time of year has come when the leaves are changing. And for many of us, it’s time for some domestic travel. Regardless of the pitfalls that the looming recession is bringing, about 35% of Americans say they will be traveling this fall despite the rising cost of travel.
Skimping in other areas, such as the home improvements everyone did during the non-travel time over the last couple of years, travelers are still getting out there. Another compromise traveling Americans have come up with is to shorten their vacation time. Instead of the week-long vacation, we will opt for three-to-four day -trips instead.
Whether it’s by air or road, travelers are planning to get out and travel between September and November. Here’s a list from TripAdvisor.com of the top 10 fall travel destinations in the U.S.
