This depends on the experience you want.
Some like sunshine and sand, others prefer the mountains, others enjoy festivals in city-centers. That said, we usually like the weather from May to July, and then September to November.
Shoulder seasons are becoming more popular, however, as people realize just how much there is to see and do in Italy. Even at Christmastime!
-
Now! Sure, there are some seasonal timeframes that are more advantageous than others, but interest in Italy has been booming since 2021. So, the earlier that you book your trip in advance the better options you’ll have available to choose from. Whether we’re talking about lodging, tours, restaurants or excursions, booking in advance and avoiding crowds always makes sense.
We’re typically seeing a 6-9 month window as a minimum for booking that dream vacation, but to be safe even a year out is helpful, especially for families traveling together or small groups.
