Holidays To Alabama

At the heart of the Deep South, Alabama is steeped in history. Let Birmingham move you with many a tale of its fight for freedom, rest and unwind on the stunning soft sand beaches, and head to rural Alabama to experience its natural wonder. Wherever your Alabama holiday takes you, you’ll be sure to find the true Southern hospitality that gives the state it’s homely feel.

In Mobile, Alabama, a quaint coastal city on the Gulf coast waits to be explored. Step back in time in the city’s historic districts, taking in the original gas lanterns and charming historic homes, then head to Mobile Bay for some serenity and wildlife watching. Discover more of Alabama’s wondrous natural beauty in Mentone, a town that sits atop Lookout Mountain, where time seems to have stood still, or laze on the white sand beaches of Gulf Shores.

Alabama’s Rich History

Visit Alabama’s cities and learn about the segregation that plagued the Deep South and the fight for equality of the Civil Rights movement. In Birmingham, there’s evidence of these pivotal times everywhere you look, from the 16th Street Baptist Church to the statue of Fred Shuttlesworth, the leader of the Civil Rights movement in Birmingham. Wander around the Birmingham Civil Rights Institute and take in the remarkable exhibitions that tell the story of the incredible people and events behind the movement. Follow the Civil Rights Trail to Montgomery, where you can visit Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s church and the Rosa Parks Museum.

A multi centre Alabama holiday is the best way to explore this Deep South state, with the Gulf Shores, history filled cities, cosy small towns and stunning landscapes to explore. Why not discover the rest of the Deep South while you’re here, spending some time in sister states Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee and Kentucky.
