Nice weather reviews

Alice, May 2023
I understand that May is a risky month for travel, the weather can be completely unpredictable, and that’s what happened on our vacation. Of the seven-day stay in France, it rained for three days, the temperature ranged from +21°C to +24°C. The rest of the days there was clear sunshine, which brightened up the gloomy mood. Despite everything, we saw a lot of things both on our own and as part of a tour. In the evening +16-18°C, normal for spring.
