For a variety of reasons, September is one of the greatest months to travel. Children are returning to school, the peak travel season is winding down, temperatures are beginning to fall, there is more availability in popular summer destinations, and hotel and flight costs are beginning to decline.
Montreal
When the summer weather is still in full force and the tourists have already left for the year, September is a fantastic month to travel to Montreal. Along with more hotel availability, rates will start to decline around this time.
It's a pleasant time of year to stroll through Old Montreal (Vieux-Montré) and see the architecture from the 18th century while honing your photographic skills on the cobblestone streets and taking in the cathedrals and coffee shops. Take advantage of the pleasant weather to stroll through the well kept grounds of Parc du Mont-Royal or ride the Montreal Observation Wheel for a bird's eye view of the city.

Grand Canyon
September is the ideal month to visit the Grand Canyon if you can wait until the end of the summer. At this time, the majority of the tourists have mostly dispersed for the year while the fantastic hiking paths are still open. Many people consider this Arizona wonder to be the ultimate vacation destination, yet squeezing through the crowds can frequently make the experience less enjoyable.
In addition to a lot of people, the midsummer heat can be excruciating. September offers cheaper accommodation costs, milder weather, less hikers on the trails, and considerably wider availability.

Barcelona
Barcelona is one of Spain's most magnificent tourist destinations, and September is the an
ideal timr to travel there. Crowds throughout the summer months can cause long lineups at popular attractions like La Sagrada Familia and frequently restrict availability if you do not make reservations well in advance.
The beaches surrounding Barcelona are rarely crowded at this time of year, but early September days might still be warm enough to go swimming in the water. La Merce, a joyous celebration with daily parades, acrobats, and entertainment, is held toward the end of the month.

In Buenos Aires, Argentina, September is the start of spring. Compared to the busiest travel
months of January and February, this shoulder season offers a lot of benefits. It is pleasant to enjoy roaming the streets in places like Palermo to explore the parks, buildings, and museums the neighbourhoods are famous for due to the cooler temperatures. Attractions like the city's rose garden, Paseo del Rosedal, and the Fair of the Mataderos market will be delightful with less visitors at this time of year.
