Italy offers travellers the chance to experience four unique seasons: primavera (spring) between March and May, estate (summer) from June until August, autunno (autumn) running from September until November and inverno (winter) between December and February. Florence’s climate means it experiences cold winters and hot, humid summers. While summer tends to be the most popular time for tourists, the best time to travel Florence truly depends on what you’re hoping to experience.

As the birthplace of the Renaissance and capital of Tuscany, Florence provides travellers with endless opportunities to sample fine wine and see priceless artwork.
