When is the best time of year to visit Europe?

Answer 1

The problem with travelling in Europe is that a) in most places it is cold or rainy - or both outside of the few summer months b) even poor Europeans are - thanks to mass charter tourism and general income levels - affluent enough to take at least a few weeks of vacations (and most Europeans have 4-6 weeks of vacations per year) and most of them take vacations during the summer - North Europeans in July and southEuropeans in August, due to childrens vacations and the weather, so all places are so inceridibly crowded in those months and most prices - especially for accommodations - are double or tripple.

So, yes, taking into account that you are a tropical person, August will be fine for you if you like Northern Europe (though in Northern Norway it may snow already at the second part of August), but you'll have to remember that it will be much colder than Indonesia, so wear jeans and a sweater - sometimes all day long, but probably always in the mornings and evenings. In Grece, Italy etc it is very warm in September by European standards, and you might be happy in a summer dress many a day, but, again, you'll need those jeans and a sweater and also a raincoat. Have a great trip.-

Answer 2

For me, Autumn is the best time. You can find good deals on airlines, hotels and car rentals online. The weather is mild enough to enjoy and be outdoors. There's some great festivals and events during this season. The ideal months are between late August - early October. If you don't like herds of tourists and crowds at every major attraction, then these are my suggestions. Besides, Europeans usually take their vacation in mid to late August. Hope this helps.

Answer 3

That really depends on the individual and what you are hoping to do in Europe.

If you go in the spring the days are warm and the nights are cool.

Summer brings longer days and lovely weather, but is usually very busy; August is when locals escape for their annual holiday.

Fall brings the changing colors and fewer crowds.

Winter is best for avid skiers and bargain hunters.

Most U.S. travelers go in the spring and summer months. Early fall tends to be busy in popular convention areas.

Winter is the slow season and has some benefits, like cost of travel, lodging, etc.

Answer 4

If you want snow, go in the winter. if you want sun go in the summer:)) the best time is in the end of spring. the south of europe is already blooming and partying! and it's still not that crowded and affordable. of course if you want to visit Portugal, you can go all year round cause it's always fun and affordable!!!
