When is the best time to visit Florence for a tourist stay?

Florence, renowned for its museums, historic monuments, districts, cafes, and restaurants, is a city to be explored all year round.

The tourist season in Florence generally falls between May and September. During the summer period, you can typically expect warm and sunny weather, ideal for exploring the many treasures of the Renaissance birthplace. However, tourist sites can be very crowded during this time, which might make your visit less peaceful.

Prefer milder temperatures and fewer crowds? You can visit Florence in spring (April or May) or in autumn (September or October). These late autumn seasons offer pleasant weather for strolling through cobblestone streets, visiting museums, and savouring delicious Tuscan cuisine without the summer rush.

Winter, from November to February, is an ideal time for travellers seeking tranquillity, cost-effective accommodations and authentic encounters with the locals. Days are shorter and temperatures are cooler, but you can, in return, enjoy a more intimate experience in this magnificent Italian art city.
