Amsterdam and Berlin
The verdict for June
Long days, rising crowds
+Longest days of the year and excellent conditions for being outside.
–Crowds and prices rise toward peak summer.
The longest days of the year and excellent conditions for canal-side evenings, parks and terrace culture. Book early as prices climb.
Long light and Berlin at its liveliest.
+Long light + lively city
–Busy at weekends, showers possible
June has some of Berlin’s longest days, with light lasting well into the evening. Terraces, lakes and parks are all in use, and the city feels at its most social just before the busiest summer weeks.
Scores and crowd levels are my own judgement; temperatures are monthly averages. Higher scores are better: quieter, cheaper and more pleasant.
