When is the best time of year to visit the Veneto?
Venice is amazing any time of the year, but if you want to avoid the big crowds, the best time to visit the Veneto is from September to November. The weather is cooler then, but you'll enjoy a more peaceful atmosphere. Just be aware that flooding, known as Acqua alta, can happen in the winter months. In spring, the weather is warm and sunny, making it a great time to visit. Summer is the busiest season, with lots of tourists, just like in February during the famous Carnival. These times are also the most lively, with many cultural events offering something for everyone to enjoy.
