What you gain in September
- ↑Grape harvest season in Chianti, Montalcino, and Montepulciano: wine estates open for tours and tastings unavailable in summer
- ↑26°C highs without July's brutal heat — outdoor sightseeing comfortable all day for the first time since May
- ↑Crowds measurably lower than August: Uffizi timed entries available with 3–5 days notice rather than weeks
What you sacrifice
- ↓September rainfall rises (74mm): expect one or two rainy spells across the month
- ↓Prices still at moderate-to-high summer level — the price drop comes in October
- ↓Uffizi pre-booking still required; the complete walk-in freedom of January is months away
