📅 Best Time to Visit India

Best months: October–March

Winter (Oct–Mar) is ideal for the Golden Triangle and Rajasthan: mild days, cool nights. Monsoon season June–September brings heavy rains, especially Mumbai. Avoid May–June in the north: extreme heat (45°C+).

Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec
  • Oct–Mar is ideal; avoid Apr–Jun (extreme heat, 40°C+) and Jul–Sep (monsoon humidity). Open year-round except Mondays.
  • Open year-round except Fridays. Oct–Mar best; the open-air complex is very exposed in summer heat.
  • Year-round except Fridays. The charbagh gardens are lush during monsoon (Jul–Sep) but summer heat is oppressive; Oct–Mar is optimal.
  • Year-round but Oct–Mar is most comfortable for the outdoor courtyard; avoid midday in summer.
  • Oct–Mar is ideal; pleasant evenings for picnics on the lawns. Avoid peak summer afternoons (May–Jun, 40°C+).
