Best time to visit Moldova

Moldova is a place lots of people visit almost all year round, but if you’re looking for the best time to go, May-July is definitely the time you should visit. This is based on a number of factors such as the weather, cost of flights and accommodation, peak travel periods and more.

In summer, the average maximum temperature in Chisinau climbs to around 29℃ (85℉), but temperatures can sometimes reach as high as 32℃ (89℉) on the hottest days of the year. The weather at night in the winter, which is around January-time, can get down to a minimum of -8℃ (18℉) in Chisinau. Other destinations in Moldova can sometimes get even colder than this, so if you’re planning on visiting a few different places, make sure you check out the climate comparison table below.

The days are longest in Moldova in August, so if you want to see the sights during the day when the sun is up for the longest time, it’s best to visit around that time of year. The wet season in Moldova usually falls during the months surrounding June each year. It’s not uncommon to get some decent rainfall or light showers during this time, but on some days the weather tends to be fine for a majority of the day, with only a few drops of rain falling from a passing shower.
