Hello, friends! It is believed that with the onset of September, an active tourist life with children ends. But I fundamentally disagree with this. Autumn travels are full of incredible adventures and emotions. Nature becomes especially beautiful. Cities dress up in crimson and gold.
Nothing prevents you from admiring the exquisite autumn colors, strolling along the romantic embankments and old streets without the crowd and crowd of tourists. In many countries, you can still enjoy the sun and warm weather at this time. In addition, the prices for tickets and hotels in the low season are incredibly pleasing. In a word, autumn is the time to go with the whole family somewhere for a week or two.
So where should you go? We suggest going on a trip to the cities of Europe. And if you buy plane tickets right now, you can still catch the sunny weather and swim, for example, in Spain off the coast of Palma de Mallorca, rustle yellow leaves on the streets of Prague or Munich. All that is required for this is a valid at least 6 months and a Schengen visa.
Autumn Europe - what is it like?
It is very different. September and October are considered by many to be the best time to visit European cities. The golden autumn is at its peak, the parks are lit up with colorful lights of bright foliage. It's time for long walks and visiting places that you can't visit during the peak season due to the heat and queues.
At this time, excursion programs with visits to European capitals, as well as southern resorts where you can swim and sunbathe, are more popular with Russian tourists than ever before. It is still warm and sunny here, and the holiday season is still in force.
To arrange a beach holiday with children in September and October and swim in the warm sea, you don't have to fly far. If we consider the resorts of Europe, then you can go with children at this time to Turkey, Cyprus, the islands of Greece or Spain.
Turkey
Vacationers with children of any age are always welcome here. The best conditions are created for them: heated pools, delicious food, interesting animation programs, water amusement parks, as well as wonderful sandy beaches, where it is comfortable to relax even with little ones.
In September-October, it is still warm on the coasts of the Mediterranean and Aegean Seas and on the shores of the Bosphorus. In the resorts of Bodrum, Antalya, Kemer, Marmaris, the water temperature remains up to + 21-23 ° С, and the air temperature is quite summer - + 25-27 ° С.
In addition, you can visit Turkey without a visa (up to 60 days), and the price ratio at the end of the season becomes very attractive. And walks in Istanbul are much more enjoyable than in summer heat (you can read more about the resorts of Turkey).
According to Aviasales, flights from Moscow to Antalya are among the twenty most popular foreign destinations among Russians this fall (the average ticket price is 31379 rubles).

Autumn is a great time for. From 13 to 22 October in Perugia (the capital of the mountainous region of Umbria), a festival for the sweet tooth "EuroChocolate" will take place.
The charming capital of Tuscany - Florence, where Raphael, Leonardo da Vinci, Petrarch and Dante were born, invites its guests on warm autumn days to stroll in the elegant Boboli Gardens around Palazzo Pitti, among fountains, ancient buildings and squares, visit art galleries with a huge number of masterpieces of the era Renaissance. You cannot miss the famous Uffizi Gallery, the stained glass windows of the Duomo and the oldest bridge in Florence, Ponte Vecchio.
Once in Italy in September or October, when the noisy crowds of tourists have subsided, but it is still warm enough, you can visit the Eternal City and calmly walk around Rome with your child, admire the famous fountains and, of course, visit the Colosseum, the museum and the Renaissance monument - Sistine Chapel.
A flight to Rome will cost an average of 25,178 rubles per person.
France
You can go to autumn Paris only for the sake of one night of Nuit Blanche, when you can visit any museums in Paris all night for free. This year it will happen on October 7th.
By the way, there are many who want to go to Paris this fall. In the Aviasales ranking, flights to the capital of France occupy the 8th line (the average cost of a flight is 26,058 rubles).
Germany
Autumn Europe is hard to imagine without Oktoberfest in the capital of Bavaria - Munich, which takes place this year from September 16 to October 3. But this holiday with excellent Bavarian beer flowing like a foamy river is interesting for adult tourists.
With children, you can go to a wonderful natural park - the English Garden, which stretches along the banks of the Isar River. On autumn days, which are especially good here, you can have a picnic, ride a bike, admire the birds living on the artificial lake in the garden.
In Berlin, autumn is also beautiful and comfortable. On bicycles (you can rent them in almost all hotels) you can create beautiful routes through the Berlin Zoo and the picturesque Tiergarten park. And from 6 to 15 October, the main event of the month, the Festival of Light, will take place, when part of the city buildings (the Brandenburg Gate, Berlin Cathedral and others) will be decorated with a light show.
And if you find yourself in green Bremen, which is considered the musical center of Northern Germany (its unspoken symbol is a bronze monument to musicians from the Brothers Grimm fairy tale "The Musicians of Bremen"), be sure to visit the Old Town with the cathedral, the Bremen Gothic Town Hall and the Roland statue, and also in the museum, which is a submarine shelter bunker with 25 exhibits, built on the eve of World War II.
Czech Republic
We have already written about beauty in one of our previous articles, but "Indian summer", which you can enjoy until the end of October, is no less impressive and beautiful period. The flow of tourists at this time weakens for a while, in order to rush with renewed vigor to Prague closer to Christmas.
With multi-colored roofs and red and yellow maples, it is incomparable. In September, the weather is almost summer (up to + 20-22 ° С). You can ride a pleasure boat on the Vltava, walk in Wallenstein or Botanical Gardens, Old Town Square and Charles Bridge, marvelous gardens and narrow streets, a whole architectural reserve - Malaya Storona, located on the slopes of Prague Castle, walk to the majestic ancient castles. And in October, although noticeably cooler, Prague becomes truly golden.
In terms of the popularity of flights to this direction in the Aviasales rating, Prague takes 8th place. Average check - 21,567 rubles.
Finland
What can you do with children in Finland during the first autumn months?
Golden autumn is a great time for family outdoor recreation. At this time, you can fish and pick berries in the forest. By the way, you can even cast a fishing rod into the clean waters of Helsinki. Fishing is allowed in the capital itself. The only thing that you may have to pay for a license (this can be done via the Internet).
Once in the capital of Finland with children, one cannot help but visit the Esplanada linden park, located in the center of the city, and stroll along its main alley, stretching for half a kilometer, surrounded by tall trees (mainly linden trees), admire the fountains and original sculptures.
A great idea is to explore the city's attractions by bike, which can be rented for a small deposit. Sometimes the hotel offers free bicycles. Will leave an impression and visits to the greenhouses of the Botanical Garden of the University of Helsinki, which are open all year round.
After long walks, you can go to the sauna: warm up, take a steam bath, and at the same time reflect on what Scandinavian happiness is, denoted by the short word "hygge". Perhaps an autumn trip to Finland will give you unforgettable moments of happiness.
To visit a country that is a member of the Schengen Agreement, a visa is required.
Russia
You don't have to leave home to get acquainted with art, to see what you could not do in the summer. You can finally visit the Hermitage, the Kunstkamera, the Grand Model Russia in St. Petersburg, the Russian Museum, the Armory, the Darwin Museum in Moscow, the Yasnaya Polyana Museum and the Tula Samovars Museum in Tula, at the Iron Museum in Pereslavl-Zalessky. And this is just the beginning of the list, which can be endless.
According to Aviasales, this fall, flights from Moscow to St. Petersburg (the average check is 5289 rubles), to Simferopol (14,200 rubles), to Sochi (12,987 rubles), to Kaliningrad (12,051 rubles) and other cities of our country are popular among Russian tourists.
Summer has passed imperceptibly, the sun is no longer warming, and at work only now they have given a vacation. And everything would seem to be nothing, it is quite possible to relax on your favorite sofa. But, looking into the eyes of children, one wonders: "Where to go for the autumn holidays to relax?" After all, young schoolchildren have almost a whole academic year ahead, for which they need to stock up on strength and energy.
When choosing a place to relax with children during the autumn holidays, it is worth considering a few nuances:
The amount allocated from the family budget for travel;
the time the family has for the trip together;
the distance that they are ready to overcome for relaxation and acquiring new experiences.
Autumn holidays in Sochi
If there is no desire to go to distant lands, or the family budget does not allow you to fork out for overseas vacations, you can have a good time with your children in Russia.
Many, of course, want to make up for lost time over the summer and move closer to the sea in order to breathe in plenty of clean sea air. And first of all, the choice falls on. This city is magnificent at any time of the year. The weather in the fall in the Krasnodar Territory is usually still warm, and nature is replete with various colors.
It is rather difficult to decide what to visit in the city first. Indeed, in Sochi there are a lot of interesting places for both adults and children. One of them is the Riviera Park. On an area of \u200b\u200babout 15 hectares, almost 250 species of various trees and shrubs grow, many sculptures and several fountains have been built. But the most interesting thing for children will be in, where the whole family can have fun from the heart, test yourself for accuracy and dexterity, and also tickle the nerves at extreme attractions. In the Riviera Park, you should definitely visit the dolphinarium and oceanarium and take pictures of the children with their inhabitants.
A visit to the Arboretum in Sochi will be no less exciting. A walk along its alleys, where you can see vegetation from all over the world, can be compared to a journey into a fairy tale.
Well, what about without a photo against the background of the Zmeikovsky, Agursky and Orekhovsky falls, the Volkonsky dolmen and the statue of the mighty Prometheus. It is impossible to come to Sochi with children and not visit the largest oceanarium in Russia or walk along the longest bridge in the world.
Autumn Crimea
Crimea will give every family an unforgettable autumn vacation. In the velvet season on the coast there is no such tiresome bustle and traffic jams, heat and scorching sun, as in summer. The water is still warm, and there is a lot of free space on the beaches. Children can frolic. And at the same time, parents can relax calmly, without looking for their child among the crowd of sunbathers.
However, there are days when the sun hides behind the clouds, and a cool wind blows from the sea. At such times, it is best to go on excursions with your child. And for this there is in the Crimea.
For children, a visit will bring great joy:
1. Water parks in Evpatoria, Koktebel, Sudak, Alushta and other cities and towns.
2. Dolphinariums, also available in many cities of Crimea.
3. Yalta Zoo "Fairy Tale" where you can not only watch the animals, but also get to know them better, feed them.
4. Famous castles of Crimea. Among which you should definitely see the Swallow's Nest, Vorontsov Palace, Massandra Palace, Yusupov Palace, Chufut Kale and many other equally unique historical structures.
Recreation centers in the Moscow region
If the sea was visited in the summer or a sharp change in climate is contraindicated, then you can have fun and carefree autumn holidays in the Moscow region in a boarding house or a family holiday home. The list of them is great, but among the many positions the best service stands out Atlas Park Hotel, Krasnaya Pakhra Resort, Yakhonty Natural Resort, Yuna-Life Country Club and Zavidovo Recreation Complex. In each of them, the staff makes every effort to make guests take a break from the bustle of the city and get a boost of vivacity and energy.
For autumn holidays in Kazan
Very often the question: "Where to go for the autumn vacation with a child?" - experienced travelers answer: "Of course to Kazan." This city is simply mesmerizing and remembered for many years. However, before going to Kazan, it is best to draw up a clear plan in advance, so that later you will not get confused and not waste your time. First of all, it is worth visiting the Kazan Kremlin - a complex of unique structures. Here you can get in touch with the history of the city from its inception to the present day. And also to comprehend the secrets of other peoples and cultures.
To have an unforgettable experience, you should definitely visit the Riviera water park. He is one of the best not only in Russia, but also in Europe. No less exciting for children will be a visit to the Zoobotsad, the Kazan Circus, the Museum of Socialist Life, the Tatar village of Tugan Avylym, and the Ekiyat puppet theater. The whole family will also enjoy walking along the Kremlin embankment, Millennium Square and Bauman Street.
With a child to Yekaterinburg
Going to Yekaterinburg for autumn holidays will also be a great decision. At first glance, in a city with a thriving industry, many factories and constructivist buildings with a series of offices everywhere, there is nowhere to rest. But this is only at first glance. But in fact, in Yekaterinburg there are a huge number of institutions where you can go with your child.
Children will get a lot of pleasure from visiting the Limpopo water park, Greenwich shopping and entertainment center, Heroi Park amusement park, Park Skazov entertainment complex, children's railway. If parents wish to combine business with pleasure, then the best solution would be to spend time in the Newton Park scientific amusement park.
If schoolchildren wish to learn more about the history of the country and, in particular, Yekaterinburg during the autumn holidays, you can visit the Museum of Local Lore, the Museum of Military Equipment "Military Glory of the Urals", the Airborne Force Museum "Winged Guard", the Museum of the History of Yekaterinburg, and the Museum of the Literary Quarter.
There are many in Yekaterinburg, where children can spend all their holidays, not only having fun, but also with the benefit of their studies. Some of them are linguistic. In them, children in a playful way can improve English and other languages.
Well, how can you get around the arboretum, Kharitonovsky garden, zoo, butterfly park, botanical garden, arboretum. And at the end of your walk in Yekaterinburg, you should go up to the observation deck on the Vysotsky skyscraper and admire the beauty of the city from above.
Over the summer to Cyprus
If you still don't want to get used to damp and cold weather. and there is a dream to extend the summer at least for a while, then you need to think about warmer regions. Going to Cyprus for the autumn holidays will be the best solution. When the rains are pouring in their homeland and the chilly wind is blowing, on the island vacationers are still basking on the warm sand. After all, the most favorable season for families with children and the elderly begins only in the second half of September. There are no longer such a huge number of holidaymakers on the beaches. And the air is also not as hot as in summer.
In addition, in the fall in Cyprus, the harvest ends and vacationers have the opportunity to delight themselves with aromatic apples and pears, grapes, figs, plums. And what delicious citrus fruits and bananas are there. Such fragrant and delicate fruits are not available in any domestic store. Where to go to the sea in November. The choice at this time is not very wide, but with a great desire, at any time of the year, you can find an excellent resort.
The last month of autumn begins the velvet season in Egypt. Warm days come to replace the exhausting sun, and the sea is calm at this time. On holidays with children in November, you can also go to Mauritius, Tunisia, United Arab Emirates, Morocco.
Israel will also please with the weather in November. There you can sunbathe, swim and significantly improve your health at the Dead Sea. However, it should be remembered that at this time in the country there may be short-term, but frequent and strong showers.
There are plenty of places for families with children during the autumn holidays. However, no matter what option parents choose, expensive and overseas or the most budgetary, the time spent together will be remembered for many years, and maybe for a lifetime.
For a child to have a quality rest from study, there is nothing better than to go on a trip with him. Autumn is the best time for exciting excursion trips: the weather is still warm, but there is no sweltering summer heat, prices at this time are much lower than summer ones - all conditions for a good rest! Today we will offer you some ideas - where can you go with your child for the autumn holidays?
1. France: and Disneyland. This is a classic family tour that includes five days of sightseeing in Paris and two days of fun at Disneyland. Before planning a trip, you should check the Disneyland website, where you may be able to get some kind of discount or find a special offer, for example, a free night in one of the hotels in the complex. There you can also order a surprise for your child - breakfast with a cartoon character. Disneyland hosts colorful shows and parades every day. The program of excursions in Paris itself includes several mandatory options and several of your choice: a mandatory program - a sightseeing tour of the city by bus, a walking tour of Montmartre; an additional program - whatever you want - you can visit Versailles, but we recommend ordering tickets via the Internet in advance, since there are huge queues in front of the palaces, in which you can stand up to five hours. But if you want to visit Notre Dame de Paris, then you can enter it freely and on any day. And we highly recommend that you come at ten o'clock in the evening to the observation deck in front of the Eiffel Tower and admire the lighting of the lights, when the strict iron lady - during the day, becomes a luxurious beauty - in the evening. Be sure to take a boat trip along the Seine, admiring the magnificent old mansions that have seen so much in their lifetime.
2. Czech Republic:. What could be better than a walk on a fine autumn day in majestic Prague, with its graceful Gothic outlines? A trip on a small boat along the Vltava River guarantees a great acquaintance with the city. Make sure to make a wish on the Charles Bridge, view the funny marionette puppets in the gift shops and stop by the grandiose St. Vitus Cathedral. If you and your child love animals, then you will surely enjoy a visit to the Prague Zoo. You can not limit yourself to Prague alone, but drive through its surroundings, in which there are so many medieval castles. In general, Czech travel agencies offer short-term tours to Steenberk Castle, to the Karlovy Vary resort and even to German Dresden, located not very far from Prague.
3. Latvia: weekend in Riga. Riga is a great choice for a trip there during the autumn holidays with a senior student. They will be able to appreciate its medieval flavor, appreciate the elegance of its architectural delights. Climb up with your child to the bell tower of St. Peter's Cathedral, and also go and listen to the famous organ of the Dome. There are many cafes in Riga where live music is played, and their cheerful atmosphere will surely impress teenagers! And since you are in Riga, visit the Museum of the Occupation, the exposition of which is dedicated to the tragic events of the history of Latvia in the twentieth century. And also, take a photo for memory near the business card of Riga - the luxurious house of the Blackheads.
4. Belarus: Minsk, Khatyn, Mir Castle. The basic acquaintance with begins with a sightseeing tour of Minsk. Senior schoolchildren can be introduced to the city's architectural monuments, and those who are younger can be taken to the Open World Oceanography Center, the Minsk Zoo, and sent on an exciting journey along the children's railway. If your teenager is interested in history, then take him to the Khatyn memorial complex, erected in memory of the Belarusians who died during the Second World War. And be sure to visit the Mir Castle, the construction of the sixteenth century, which is located in the Grodno region.
5. Northern capitals: Helsinki, Stockholm. If you live nearby, then the program of your autumn trip with a child may look like this: you get from St. Petersburg to Helsinki by train or bus, take a sightseeing tour of the city, then take a course to Turku, where a ferry will be waiting for you. In the morning, you will already wake up in Stockholm. All places that will be incredibly interesting for schoolchildren are located on the island of Djurgården: - this is the Junibacken museum, which was created based on the books of Astrid Lindgren, then be sure to look into the Pippi Longstocking house; - the Vasa Museum, which keeps the only, but priceless exhibit - an ancient ship that lay on the seabed for more than three centuries and was raised from there at the end of the twentieth century; - ethnographic park "Skansen", with an interesting zoo. Stockholm is good day and night, especially its famous Stortorget square.
6. Germany: Berlin, Dresden. Bus tours are one of the most democratic types of travel. We suggest you try it out on a trip for the autumn holidays. Leaving Moscow, you will cross Poland, then drive to Berlin. During a few days spent in this wonderful city, you will look at the famous Brandenburg Gate, get acquainted with the Reichstag building, visit the Berlin Zoo. From Berlin, you can book a day trip to the city of palaces and gardens - Potsdam. Then you can move to Dresden, where you must visit the world-famous art gallery, where you will personally see the "Sistine Madonna". By the way, admission there for children under seventeen years old is free, and for adults the price is quite democratic - ten euros. And on Theater Square, located in the heart of the magnificent Dresden, be sure to sit in one of the cozy cafes with a cup of wonderful coffee. Young schoolchildren will definitely be pleased with the fact that in all German cities funny open trains run along the streets.
7. England: London, Oxford. Let's say right away that vacation in England is not conducive to savings, since this country is not cheap in principle. But, if you're on a fall vacation with a teenager, you can try to make your tour a little more budgetary by staying overnight in local hostels, many of which are located in the city center. This will allow you to "kill two birds with one stone": to save on transport and housing, because in the hostel you only need to spend the night. By the way, London hostels are very clean and decent establishments where you can rent a room for two or three people, which will suit you perfectly with a child. It is very encouraging that admission to most of London's museums is free. As soon as you get acquainted with the English capital, you can safely move to Oxford - a magnificent city on the banks of the Thames. This city is incredibly inspiring to study! If you are relaxing with an elementary school student, then, for sure, he will appreciate the places where "Harry Potter" was filmed. For example, Christ Church College or Bodleian Library.
8. Spain: Catalonia. - the legendary Catalan capital is one of the most popular cities for a vacation with a child, because the weather is great all year round. You will have an unforgettable acquaintance with the impressive and fantastic architecture of Antoni Gaudí: Sagrada Familia, Park Guell, Casa Mila, Casa Batlló. To get to know Barcelona better, be sure to purchase a ticket for the Bas Turistik, a city sightseeing bus that stops near all the city's major attractions. In general, three routes are offered for vacationers around the city, which can be previously reviewed via the Internet. At any stop, you can go, change to other routes, all with one ticket, and the audio guide in Russian will tell you everything very carefully about the famous places of Barcelona. It is very interesting to visit the Barcelona Aquarium with schoolchildren, where sharks, whales and other marine life will swim over your head, while you move through the underwater tunnel. And, of course, being in Catalonia, you should definitely visit the famous amusement park of Spain -. There is also a water park adjacent to the park, but the ticket is bought separately. What pleases me is that water attractions and slides work here in the fall. To appreciate all the opportunities offered in the theme zones of the park, spend at least two days here. By the way, you can stay for these couple of days right in the hotels located directly on the territory of PortAventura. But be sure to book your seats in advance.
9. Italy: Rome and Venice. The most popular places in Italy where you can go on an autumn vacation with a child are Rome and Venice. In the Italian capital, you can choose from a huge number of excursions offered by travel agencies for parents and their children: the Interactive Museum of the History of Ancient Rome with a 5D cinema, the Museum of Roman Legionnaires, where your child, and you can not only try on Roman armor, but and take a couple of lessons in gladiatorial combat, the Planetarium in the Museum of Roman Civilization and many other equally interesting proposals. In Venice, you simply owe the whole family a gondola ride. But when arriving there for the autumn holidays, dress warmly, in a jacket, otherwise the dampness will do its insidious thing. However, visiting Venice and not taking a gondola ride through its canals is unthinkable. You can also ride the trajetto, a cheap type of public transport, but you can also see the majestic Venetian palazzo and other architectural monuments on it.
We offered you several ideas where you can visit with your child for the autumn holidays, and decide what is closer and more interesting to you - only you. Nevertheless, we hope that we could help you with our information on the rest.
