Best time to visit Europe

Are you looking for the best time to visit Europe? Well, you’re in the right place! Although Europe is a great destination to visit almost all year round, April-June is the best time to go due to its perfect climate conditions. Around this time of year, flights and accommodation can also be cheaper as it is outside of key peak holiday seasons if you book well enough in advance.

During the peak of the warmer months, temperatures in London, Europe can rise to a maximum of around 27℃ (80℉). In the colder months such as January, temperatures usually get down to an average minimum of 2℃ (36℉). Temperatures often differ in other areas of Europe though so you can find out more information about this below.

If you want to get the most out of your time visiting Europe, or you’re just afraid of the dark, the days in July are usually the longest between sunrise and sunset. You don’t want to get wet on your holiday, do you? Well if you’re trying to avoid the rain, then steer clear of Europe in June. Head there in April instead if you want to increase your chances of not being rained on.
