Best Time to Visit Cologne
Winter 2026/2027
Winters in Cologne are typically cloudy but relatively mild, with cold temperatures but little severe frost or snow. The average temperature during this season is approximately 4°C (39°F), with daytime highs typically hovering between 6°C and 8°C (43°F and 46°F). December is extremely popular due to the multiple large and atmospheric Christmas Markets, which draw massive crowds and create a festive mood. The most popular event of the entire year, however, is the raucous Cologne Carnival in February, which temporarily transforms the city. Outside of these events, tourism slows, offering lower rates and a quiet experience for visiting the spectacular Cathedral.

E
Fun trip with a nice group and smooth transport every day. I really enjoyed how easy everything felt from start to finish. The guide kept the mood light and shared little stories that made each stop more meaningful. We covered a lot of places but the schedule never felt overwhelming.

Highly recommend!
This tour was everything we hoped for and more! The trip is packed with must-see landmarks like the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and the time in Florence made us fall in love with the city. The itinerary was well-balanced, with just enough free time to explore on our own. We also loved visiting the charming little towns on the way, like Luxembourg and Frankfurt. It was an epic European adventure that we’ll remember forever.

Western Europe tour
This is our first ever tour in Europe - me and my husband. We were fortunate to have had found Tours4fun.com. We had a wonderful and great time during the travel last October 2018, thanks most especially to Mr. Alex Tang and to Miss Nicky. Thank you so much!
