–Florence’s wettest month of the year

November is Florence’s wettest month, but also one of its quietest. Museums are easy to visit without crowds, and it is a good-value window before December’s festive prices begin.

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