Useful information Practical tips Climate and recommending clothing: Germany‘s climate is a combination of temperate and maritime. In the summer (between May and September), temperatures are quite pleasant, so light clothing is recommended. However, we also recommend bringing a light coat and sweater, especially when travelling to mountain regions. In the spring and fall (April and October) the weather can be unstable and ranges from pleasantly mild temperatures (around 20° C/68°F) to below 0 degrees Celsius (30°F), so we recommend bringing some winter clothes. Between November and March, visitors should bring plenty of warm winter clothing and appropriate footwear for rain and snow, as temperatures will be around zero degrees Celsius (30° F) or lower and it may snow. Any time of year we recommend packing an umbrella and a rain jacket. Hotels: All the hotels on our tours have been carefully selected.
