When to visit Bologna?

The best season to travel in Italy depends on your personal preferences. If you like sun and warmth, summer is the ideal time for you. The months of June to August offer high temperatures ranging from 25°C to 35°C in the southern regions of the country. However, temperatures can climb to 40°C in certain regions such as Sicily and Calabria. Italy's beaches are crowded during this period, so expect high tourist numbers.

If you prefer milder temperatures and avoid the crowds, spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) are good seasons to visit Italy. Temperatures are pleasant, fluctuating between 15°C and 25°C, and the landscapes are magnificent, with flowers blooming in spring and changing leaves in autumn.
