+Warm, lively and perfect for terraces, canals and outdoor Amsterdam.

The city at its most alive: warm days, packed terraces and canal life everywhere. Pride week is extraordinary if you want the celebration.

+Warmest month + lake days

–Busy and occasionally hot

July is Berlin’s warmest month, with lake swims, open-air evenings and a packed events calendar that includes Pride. It is also one of the busiest times to visit, and hotel prices rise accordingly.

Scores and crowd levels are my own judgement; temperatures are monthly averages. Higher scores are better: quieter, cheaper and more pleasant.
