Holidays in Italy in spring
According to the season calendar, spring runs from March 21st to June 21st, but from a touristic point of view we can consider the entire months of March, April and May , especially in recent years when temperatures started to rise early, as well as the accomodation rates. March and April usually are mild and somewhat unpredictable months of transition, with sunny and rainy days and temperatures varying also depending on the area you are visiting, whereas in May the climate is already summerlike, especially in the south of Italy. Therefore, it's a good idea to check wheather forecasts to understand what to bring on holiday in Italy.
The beauty of visiting Italy in spring is the perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in most of the cities, apart from the towns more in demand. They are not as crowded as in summer and you can easily go around , without crowded and endless waiting queues to enter into the museums. Simply avoiding spring festivities, such as Easter and Easter Monday, the Liberation Day (April 25th) , the Workers' Day (May 1st) and the Republic Day (June 2nd), when most shops and facilites are closed, but not the main touristic attractions.
Another reason to visit Italy in spring is that days begin to get longer, as well as the hours for visiting museums, therefore you have more time to visit places and spots which are often closed at sunset. The cultural agenda of museums, gardens and historic spots of Italy go into full swing. You can have your lunch outdoors without suffering winter cold or summer heat, have your first swim into the sea or into the accomodation's pool and enjoy the first open air concerts. You will also find many exhibitions, fairs and festivals, especially food and wine events , and celebrations.
Holidays in the Italian countryside in spring
Spring is certainly the best time to visit the the countryside: Italian hills covered with vineyards and olive groves come back to life and fruit trees start to bloom.
