It depends on the kind of trip you are interested in: if you are looking forward to a hiking holiday in the mountains - for example the Dolomites - you should consider Summer season, June to September. For other destinations, Spring (April-June) and autumn (September-October) are ideal times, thanks to the pleasant weather and fewer crowds. November is generally still nice, with warm temperatures. Every trip page specifically mentions the best time to do that specific trip.
