Italy

When to go Italy

Italy is a truly splendid part of our world, truly a land for all seasons and in all honesty one who has set a foot on this country will find it difficult to make suggestions about the best time to visit the country. In fact, it would be a lot easier to say when not to visit. For example, ski lovers should not visit Sestriere (a famous ski resort near Torino) as the lifts are not in operation. Mount Vesuvius during an eruption is an experience you could do without. All other dates in the calendar are open and visitors will truly not be disappointed.

As for the best time to visit each part of Italy, that really depends on personal taste and available time. To escape the obvious, namely that summer is the best season for your visit (which all things considered is not far from the truth) visitors to Italy should decide if they would like to see Michelangelo’s magnificent Dome of St Peter’s Cathedral laced with a sprinkle of snow under the melancholic winter sky of the city of cities, or if they would rather watch it glow in divine beauty under the warm Roman sun. In either case Michelangelo remains a master.

The Italians are masters of hospitality. IT (Informationi Touristichi) desks can be found in every single Airport in Italy. In every train or central bus station, every little Piazza (square), and in every small pension, you will find people who will gladly provide you with tons of leaflets (sometimes even if you don’t ask for them) informing you on local festivals or cultural events. There is also lots of information (including weather forecasts) on the Internet. Whatever choice you make try not to miss St Francis restored chapel in the astonishing Assisi, Umbria.
