Should I visit France during Winter?

Question

Should I visit France for the first time in January? Or should I wait until a warmer season? How is it this time of year?

Answer 1

Up to you.  Sunbathing uncomfortable in winter, skiing opportunities rather limited in July.

Answer 2

i just got back from paris last week, and it was cold.  i think in degrees celcius they were saying it was 4 or 5 so thats like high 30's or low 40's in farenheight.  and it rained.  but it was still beautiful.  there arent as many tourist in the winter time, so the lines are way shorter everywhere.  but theres still a lot of them all around.  i wonder then the summer must be crazy there.

go to france in the winter.  if you have a chance to go to france any time of the year go!

Answer 4

I was in London and then Paris last year in the beginning of January. It was pretty cold, low 40's I think, and it rained  a bit. But there was no snow...You can keep warm by walking briskly and dodging crazy drivers. I was also in Paris again this past August, and it was hot and sooooo busy and overcrowded. So basically, it's cold in the winter, but you won't have to wait in as long of lines to see the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre, etc., etc.. Also, onion soup tastes much better on a cold winter day.

Answer 5

If you want to visit the Alps yes if not I'd rather wait for the warmer season since in many tourist spots everything will be closed.
