. Best Time to Travel

    The seasons are divided by three: 

  • off-season, January, February, March, April, November, December.
  • mid-season, May, June, September, October.
  • peak-season, July and August, including Easter as well.

 Off-season. offers:

  • Hotels are cheaper, and always available.
  • Airplane tickets are a lot cheaper. Also, frequent flyer programs require less miles.
  • There are no crowds.
  • Some attractions are closed.
  • Less daylight ours. So, you have to be an early bird and eat quick lunch.
  • Cold weather. You have to pack heavy winter clothes.

 Peak-season. offers:

  • Sunny weather.
  • Longer days.
  • Lots of nightlife.
  • All attractions are open.
  • Everything is crowded.
  • Airplane tickets are more expensive.
  • It is harder to find a hotel. (Specially on Friday in Barcelona)

 Mid-season. is a nice mix of the previous ones, and you get the best of both worlds.
