Best time to visit Brno

Brno is a hub of activity in the summer time when the sun is out and people are out having a great time. The best thing about Brno is that the weather is never really bad, so you'll be sure to have a good time whenever you decide to go. Most tourists choose to go over the summer months (June – August), and as a result, flights and accommodation can be very pricey over this period of time. We suggest you in skip the summer months, as it gets hot, and also rains a lot! Try spring (March to May) or autumn (September to mid-October) instead, or if you’re feeling quite adventurous, visit this Czech city between November and February. You’ll get to say that you experienced a real European winter and will most probably have better stories to tell than the tourists who had to stand in long queues everywhere, overheating at crowded tourist sites.

There is something very unique and romantic about the old-European styled streets of Brno. The architecture tells a story about the history of the city, and this is then given some refreshing colour by the numerous green parks all around.

Denis Park and Luzanky Park is where you will find couples, school kids and the elderly enjoying the afternoon sun.

If you’re feeling peckish then you’re in for a real treat, as Brno is famous for serving up the best Czech food around. Fried cheese with potatoes or roast pork with a side of cabbage are a definite winner and worth that curious first bite!

Bruno is a fairly safe city with few grievances. What would be worth pointing out is that with all cosmopolitan cities, it is important to be aware of your surroundings. In this city, there have been some reports of beggars demanding handouts from tourists, and gypsies trying their luck with your personal possessions. Please keep all purses and wallets out of sight.

It is always important to have your vaccines up to date when you are travelling. When visiting the Czech Republic, it is recommended to get a vaccination for hepatitis A, as some water may be contaminated.
