Methodology — how we built these numbers
Each tier total is our estimate of lodging and on-the-ground daily spending (food, transport, tours, spa) for a 7-night honeymoon in Italy, in US dollars per couple. The figures come from the cost sections of our destination guides. They are estimates, not quotes.
The split: we count 60% of each tier total as lodging and the other 40% as daily spend, spread evenly across the 7 nights. That split is our own rule of thumb, not a measured figure.
Flights are shown separately because they vary heavily by origin city and how far ahead you book. The flight estimate above is for a US-origin round-trip per person, doubled for the couple.
When to go
The best months to honeymoon in Italy are May to June and September to October. The months to avoid are July and August.

July and August bring peak-season heat, crowds and prices.
In April and November, just outside the best months, the weather is less reliable and prices are often lower than at the busiest time of year.
