Editor's pick for September: Madeira
In September, the pretty archipelago southwest of Portugal offers thrilling levada walks, stunning coastal hikes, and all the fun of the Wine Festival. In Madeira you'll feast on bolo do caco (delicious Madeiran bread) and fresh seafood by the plateful. The mild weather is perfect for exploring Madeira's lush, terraced mountains, dramatic cliffs, and verdant valleys.
Head to Japan in October for stunning autumn foliage, thrilling hikes in the Japanese Alps, and vibrant festivals like the Jidai Matsuri in Kyoto. Tuck into seasonal delights like matsutake mushrooms and chestnut desserts, and fall in love with Japan while exploring serene temples and picturesque countryside.
In November, Cuba's weather is ideal for exploring Havana's vibrant streets, hiking Viñales Valley, and diving in Playa Girón. Head to fiery Cuba in November to experience the Havana Jazz Festival, savor ropa vieja and fresh seafood, and immerse yourself in the country's rich culture.
