Try Something Different for your Autumn Break

LONDON, September 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

Leading travel operator Thomas Cook urges travellers to try something different on their autumn break this year.

If you are able to take a break out of the high season you have the advantage of missing the crowded airports and the getaway crush that usually accompanies the small summer window of opportunity.

If you are the kind of person that takes holidays at a different time, why not take it one step further and try a different destination away from the norm too? You'll probably be surprised at the kind of deals top operators such as Thomas Cook offer and will most likely be able to budget for something far more exciting for a similar outlay than you would expect to pay in the middle of the high season.

Turkey Holidays are an increasingly popular choice for the discerning tourist away from the main busy summer months. The extensive coastlines that the country boasts around both the Aegean and Mediterranean Seas mean that there is a wealth of resorts to chose from. Antalya is well known for its magnificent beaches but also has a fantastically well appointed Beach Park and waterslide. Turkey has been deliberately developed to act as a year round attraction for tourists with an emphasis on skiing and winter sports at resorts such as Uldag Bursa and Kartepe Sapanca.

The USA is a great choice for British holidaymakers whatever the time of year and Holidays to Las Vegas have no specific high season. Entertainment is the name of the game in the city built for pleasure in the middle of the desert. Vegas boasts far more than world famous multi-million dollar casinos; the hotels and accommodation themselves are works of art.

The glitz & glamour extend to the multi faceted nightlife on offer with A-List celebrities at venues such as Caesar's Palace through to high class productions of world famous musicals. Recently, Las Vegas has also become the focal point for the new found popularity of modern nightclubs and electronic dance music in America, with many now considering it a serious rival to Ibiza for the world's dance music destination crown.

Holidays to Goa have an image of being part of the 'hippy trail' but can offer top class facilities alongside glorious natural beachside locations. Autumn is the perfect time to visit. The Cidade de Goa is a luxury beach resort set in 35 acres of glorious gardens with 210 guestrooms and offers the opportunity for everything from a sophisticated evening of dining to partying by the beach next to the Arabian seas.
