France is worth a visit any time of the year but, to experience this region in all its glory, we would advise visiting through April and October.
Visiting through the spring and summer months will bring with it the opportunity to marvel at the rolling countryside in full bloom, awash with beautiful flora. The summer months have the warmest temperatures, with the average peaking at around 80°F in July. So, if you prefer it cooler, spring (or fall) is best even if you catch the occasional April shower.
