2.Try Some Distinctive Wine In France

There is a festival in France for trying out new wine, and it’s usually held in the Beaujolais region during the grape harvest season. The third Tuesday in November is one of the most awaited days in France for this reason.

Not only should you expect to drink some fine wine, but also mouth-watering cuisines that will make your trip memorable for the long haul. Live dancing and singing set the tone for the entire festival. The fun doesn’t end here. There are competitions you could participate in as you familiarize yourself with the French culture.

3.Hot-air Balloon In Turkey

A hot-air balloon activity enables you to recount your sense of serenity. Cappadocia features jagged landscapes that provide a better ambiance for a memorable hot-air balloon ride.

The balloons are capable of soaring as far above as 3,000 ft above the ground. They also move as fast as 2-22 miles an hour, depending on the variability of wind. The landings and take-offs are smooth and soothing that you won’t feel any swaying or rocking feelings.

April to November are the most favorable months to organize for this activity. The remaining months will only lead to consistent cancellation of flights due to extremely strong winds.

What’s more, the fine and sunny weather contributes to successful hot-air balloon rides in Cappadocia, Turkey. Make early bookings as the spots normally get filled up months before the D-day. A single ride in Cappadocia could cost you somewhere between $145-200.

4.Candle-releasing Festival In Thailand

This festival is usually marked annually in November in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Natives refer to this festival as the Yi Peng ceremony, which they revere as a religious event.

What happens is that you light a lantern, make a wish, and then release and watch as it soars high into the sky. This festival runs for the better part of November to accommodate different types of people, including tourists.

Soak yourself up in tradition as you learn about the sacredness of candle-releasing. Glowing lanterns fill up the sky and leave the participants calmer than they were before.

 Natives light more lanterns on that same weekend in case of other events such as parades, fireworks, or even dances. Take advantage of this festival as it’s a perfect way to relieve yourself of stress build-up.
