The best time to visit Rome: weather and activities

Rome's climate is lovely. Warm springs alternate with hot summers and pleasant autumns. Does your visit to Rome from Rotterdam depend on the weather? Then it's best to go in spring or autumn. Temperatures fluctuate between 15°C and 25°C. It is also cheaper and quieter than in the high season. And how special is it to admire the Easter celebrations in Vatican City or to visit Rome's international film festival (Festival Internazionale del Film di Roma) in October, for example? This is probably a once in a lifetime experience. Rome's summers are a bit hotter, with temperatures above 30°C. Make sure you have plenty of sunscreen, have a refreshing drink in the shade, and treat yourself to a cooling gelato (ice cream). Although it's hot, the city comes alive in summer. Enjoy everything around you and get to know the vibrant Italian city life.
