Best time to visit

Evenings year-round, but October–March offer the most dramatic lighting effects as darkness falls earlier. Summer evenings (May–August) are longer, so book later departures (21:00+) if you prefer deeper twilight. Avoid rainy weather for clearest reflections and photo opportunities.
