Visit Maine in Fall

The turn of the leaves comes to Maine around the last week of September and first week in October. A tour throughout the state of Maine in the fall is one of the prettiest and most breathtaking fall trips you can take anywhere in the United States. We recommend you begin in the north and travel south, as the leaves turn northern to southern based on the temperature drops that turn the leaves. Favorite cities to visit include Bangor, Portland, Rockland and Waterville. The further north and inland you go you will find more deciduous forests that mix ever-greens with colorful maples and other trees with leaves that transform from green to bright yellow, orange, red and deep purple. If you really want to see the countryside, arrange a bus tour throughout the state with key stops along the coastline. Don't forget to enjoy some of the best lobster in the world and some fresh seafood and New England clam chowder right from the source. You can also plan to launch from Maine and travel up to Nova Scotia in Canada, which you will need a Passport to go in and out of Canada.
