The best time to visit Italy is during the shoulder seasons of spring (April to June) and autumn (September to October). During these months, you'll enjoy beautifully pleasant weather, vibrant landscapes, and fewer crowds, making it ideal for exploring both historic cities and the scenic countryside.

While summer brings long sun-drenched days perfect for the coastal communities, it also brings peak temperatures and crowds. Winter offers a quieter, more intimate look at Italy's world-famous museums and vibrant city piazzas, alongside the charm of local seasonal traditions.

Complimentary wi-fi is available in many hotels, cafes and restaurants, however the quality of the connection may differ. You can also find internet cafes in the cities visited. Make sure to enable data roaming on your mobile if you wish to use 5G.
