Best Time to Visit Italy
Italy is widely regarded as one of the best vacation destinations in the world, and that is no exaggeration: it tops the list of the world’s most tourist friendly countries.
The peak season in Italy runs from April to October, each region experiencing an inrush of tourists in due time. The northern part of the country is considered a perfect place for skiing and mountaineering, while regions with mild climate, such as Tuscany, Venice and Liguria, are primarily visited by health tourists and sightseers. Shopaholics from all around the globe flock to Rome, Florence and Venice to take full advantage of spring sales. Beach lovers occupy both the Mediterranean coast and the Adriatic Sea coast from May to October.
The closer you get to the south, the higher the outdoor temperature. The most unpredictable weather is in Emilia Romagna where the Apennine Mountains are located. One minute you enjoy the sunshine and warmth, the next – find yourself shivering from cold and struggling to find a way out of the fog. However, it doesn’t stop people from visiting the area famous for its picturesque scenery.
