The Best Time to Visit Italy on a Small Ship Cruise
If you're planning a small ship cruise to the Mediterranean, then consider a few of these great times to visit Italy:
Our favorite times of the year to visit Italy are either in the spring (April-June) or the fall (September-October), when temperatures are warm but comfortable, there is less tourist traffic, and prices are a bit lower than during the busy season.
Here's a look at what travel is like in Italy each season:
May-October has the best weather in Italy.
March-April & November are the shoulder season months when you can get the best deals and discounts on Italian cruises.
April-June & September are ideal times to visit coastal Venice, Rome, and Naples.
April-October is a great season to plan your trip to Sicily.
March-May is the best time for a tour of Italy's vineyards.

I spoke with at least a half dozen other travel companies, looking for a Galapagos cruise that fit our schedule and budget. Some companies could manage one or the other, but Erin was the only one who could do both. She found us the perfect cruise, at a fantastic price! And she has been quick and patient with responses to my many questions. So far, Adventure Life has been a fantastic company to work with!

Adventure Life took care of everything! All we had to do was show up when we were supposed to, which made our first trip to Costa Rica largely stress-free and incredibly fun. Our trip reps, Hannah and Mariethony, were helpful and responsive, getting back to us by email usually within a few hours. Our accommodations were all great, and we got incredibly blessed with some absolutely stellar guides and drivers.
Our Jungle & Beach trip was an excellent balance of adventure and rest. We got to try out a lot of different activities, including snorkeling, hiking, white water rafting and kayaking, while also partaking of some rest around the pool or by the ocean. We enjoyed seeing and exploring the beautiful Caribbean side of the country.
