Seasonal tips: Spring: milder weather is ideal for walking tours and landmark-heavy days before peak-season crowds. Summer: longer days make it easier to stack outdoor sightseeing with one or two headline experiences. Autumn: cooler evenings are perfect for food-led neighborhoods, tasting menus, and shoulder-season value. Winter: museums and indoor attractions become the easiest anchor for shorter daylight itineraries.

Insider tips: - Morning tours are usually the easiest way to beat queues and leave room for a show or dinner later. - Use €105 as the city benchmark; anything comfortably below that is usually strong value for a first trip. - Reserve Friday and Saturday food experiences before you land, especially for the prime 7pm to 9pm window.
