Recipes & Railways: Northern Italian Cruise Extension
Experience Northern Italy on board the Frecciarossa high-speed train, where sun-soaked coastlines give way to ancient hilltop towns, and the glittering arc of the Gulf of Naples appears and vanishes at the window.

May and September are some of the best months to visit northern Italy as the weather is likely to be pleasant but it's not too crowded. July and August are the Italian tourist high season, so the city is extremely crowded; from mid-June to mid-August it tends to be hot and humid. October is the rainiest month. November to February is cold but wrap up warm and this is a nice quiet time to visit.
