Italy is a year-round destination, but the best time depends on your preferences. Spring (April to June) and autumn (September to October) offer mild weather, fewer crowds, and vibrant scenery.

Q. How do I get around in France?
The SNCF train system is globally regarded as providing a world-class service. If you’re looking for a fast, efficient, regular and extremely reliable means to get around France, you can’t go wrong with the train. Albeit not cheap, book in advance for the best deals. In the height of summer, you’re unlikely to be able to purchase tickets on the day you want to travel, especially on popular inter-city routes, as they will probably be fully booked. Always pre-purchase tickets at least three days in advance.
Note: France has banned short-haul domestic flights for any journeys that are possible in less than 2.5hrs by train (from May 2023) – in a bid to make transport greener and fairer for the population – trains are the way to go!
Quick facts:
· Trains run every 10 to 15 minutes.
· Average journey time between Paris-Châtelet and CDG airport is 35-40 minutes
· Arrival Stations: Gare du Nord, Châtelet les Halles, St Michel/Nôtre Dame, Luxembourg, Port Royal, Denfert-Rochereau, Cité Universitaire.
· We guarantee after a 24+ hour flight from NZ, you won't want to deal with a transfer via public transport. Ask your HOT consultant about booking a transfer before you even leave NZ.
Q. What are some must-do activities in France?
Check out our France travel section for top recommendations, including cultural experiences, must-see landmarks, and local favourites.
Q. What are some family-friendly activities in France?
You can make almost any French activity as fun for children as it is for the adults. You can hire a locaboat – self skippered boat - for a week or so to take in the countryside. Take a ghost tour/walk in Paris or navigate the rural vineyards with a bike ride. If you’re critters are brave critters, cycle on a country road and wait for the trucks carrying hay bales to pass – nothing more fun than a hay storm!
In summer, many of the French farmers craft their fields into crazy mazes. A maize maze if you will. The French are also particularly good at designing a really great park, with all sorts of swings, slides and monkey bars.
If you’re not close to the coast, many municipals have manmade lakes with small slivers of sand and swimming pontoons. And you might not get the kids eating duck liver pate by lunchtime, but we bet they won’t mind a picnic with a pastry from the patisserie. Look out for the savoury options covered in shredded emmental cheese – the cheese makes the slice look excessively hairy and kids love it.
