Italy is a great destination to visit in May, the weather is beautiful, the apricots are in season and the pasta is, truth be told, spectacular all year round but better experienced on a balcony somewhere taking in May’s glorious Italian sunsets.
We recommend Italy in May because all the conditions line up to almost guarantee an enjoyable trip. With the first hint of Summer, it is a European getaway worth booking. Visiting Rome in May, particularly 1st May, ( Festa del Lavoro or Labor Day) will allow you to get a true hint of the Dolce far niente – the sweetness of doing nothing. The Amalfi Coast also boasts a perfect luxury, easy-going late spring trip.
