With Labour looking to price parents out of being able to travel abroad during term time, those starting to think about their post-summer getaway might just have to wait until October for their next well-earned break.
Luckily, The Express has the definitive list of the top 10 October holiday destinations with some old favourites and less explored gems included meaning there is a perfect location just wating to be explored.
9. Sicily
The beauty of Sicily in October is the lingering hot temperatures which because of its proximity to north Africa sees average temperatures in the low twenties throughout October.
To visit Sicily is to visit a microcosm of European history with Greek temples and Roman ruins fuelled by pizza, good wine and gelato. Could there be any better combination for history lovers seeking an October getaway?
For those looking for a more relaxing experience, the beaches of Sicily are some of the best in the country with many only a stones throw away from vibrant market stalls and bustling side streets.
