Spring Travel Itineraries by Weather

Spring is the season where timing matters most. A week too early and you're standing under bare branches; a week too late and the blossoms have already fallen. These itineraries are timed for the window when temperatures are mild enough to walk all day without overheating, skies are mostly clear, and the landscapes are at their most photogenic.

March through May covers a wide range of climates — cherry blossoms in Japan peak in late March, tulip fields in the Netherlands hit their stride in April, and the Amalfi Coast becomes walkable again in May before summer crowds arrive. Each itinerary here includes real climate data for every stop so you can see exactly what conditions to expect on your travel dates.
