The most popular times for weather in Italy are generally (1) from the end of March through June and (2) from September through the middle of November. In March and November, the weather can swing through a broad range of temperatures, cooler but usually not wintry. July and August will certainly be hot and humid, with temperatures in the 90's. December through February, temperatures range from the 30's to the 50's but are typically in the 40's.

For the countryside and the coast, considering both heat and crowds, our opinion is mid-May or late September. If you want to rent right in town, however, our advice is different. For Rome, Florence, or Venice, our advice as to the best time to travel is March or April (avoiding the week before and the week after Easter) or November. Alternatively, any winter month (except for Carnevale in Venice). And finally – you won’t believe this – August. See similar questions...

Italy has a very favorable climate compared to that of the UK with milder winters and warmer, dryer summers. We recommend visiting Tuscany, Umbria and Le Marche in May, June and July and September to October. Puglia and southern Italy has a longer season and can be visited in March/April until November. It is usually hot in August which may restrict sight seeing if you do not like the weather too hot. The temperature in Puglia in August can soar to over 40 degrees. See similar questions...

This can be a long one to answer, so give us a call to discuss it. But most people will choose between three basic modes of travel...(1) trains, (2) self-drive car rentals, and (3) motorcoaches. Trains and cars are for independent travelers, who don't want to be with a group and who are willing to manage their own travel through Italy. Motorcoaches are for people who want a tour director to lead them around Italy and who are willing to travel with a group, typically of about 50 people. See similar questions...

Wear as little clothing as possible when you are at home. Choose lightweight, light-colored, loose-fitting clothing. In the hot sun, a wide-brimmed hat will provide shade and keep the head cool. If you must go outdoors, be sure to apply sunscreen 30 minutes prior to going out and continue to reapply according to the package directions. Sunburn affects your body’s ability to cool itself and causes a loss of body fluids. It also causes pain and damages the skin. See similar questions...

Be sure the outer layer of your clothing is tightly woven, preferably wind resistant, to reduce body-heat loss caused by wind. Wool, silk, or polypropylene inner layers of clothing will hold more body heat than cotton. Stay dry—wet clothing chills the body rapidly. Excess perspiration will increase heat loss, so remove extra layers of clothing whenever you feel too warm. Also, avoid getting gasoline or alcohol on your skin while de-icing and fueling your car or using a snow blower. See similar questions...

If repotting is not done, the bark or moss become decomposed and packed down. See similar questions...
