Visiting India in April
• Beginning of the summer season-mercury level increases. The
days are noticeably hotter.
• The preferred season for tiger safaris: high chances of sighting
tigers with less vegetation.
• Easter Holidays

11. Temperatures start to increase across India in April. Early mornings and late
evenings are the best times for planning sightseeing when the heat is more
manageable. During the daytime, it’s better to relax in a hotel or commute in an air-
conditioned car from one city to another.

sighted frequently at water holes. Greenery decreases considerably, and elephants
and tigers come out of the deep jungle in quest of water.
Easter is not a prominent festival in India but due to vacations, it is a popular time to
visit India, so early reservations are recommended.

a great time to head up to the Himalayas. Clear days in the Himalayas give you a
panoramic view of the mountains. Chances of sighting a tiger increase, so it is a
great option for wildlife observers and photographers to take as many tiger safaris in
the early mornings and late afternoon and spend the rest of the day in your room at a
wildlife resort in the midst of nature.

changing their colors with the light and shadows. Ladakh also offers a great chance

its peak in Northern India and Central India. Hotels offer great discounts, so one can
enjoy luxury hotels to relax or for a short break. After mid-July, the monsoon enters
Northern India, bringing some relief from the heat with rain showers. But one feels
uncomfortable and exhausted with excessive sweat. The monsoon season is a great
time to enjoy the rain-drenched greenery of nature.

tourists.

15. chooses her way of cleansing the earth, Ayurveda offers a great way to detox. The
body’s pores open up and are more receptive to healing and getting rid of toxins.
Even the oil penetrates better to cleanse away toxins and soothe the body. Relax

his divine blessings. Many pilgrims walk hundreds of kilometers on foot to bring fresh
Ganges water and visit remote temples of Lord Shiva. August also celebrates the
birth of Lord Krishna (Janmashtami) and Independence Day. Long weekends with
Indian holidays see a high inflow of domestic tourists.
Visiting India in September
• Occasional short pours of rain—drier and sunnier than July and
August.
• Spectacular views of the Himalayas with clear skies and lush
greenery.
• The number of cold nights begins to rise.
September is the best time to travel in India if you are prepared for occasional
short pours and mixed weather. The great value for money in terms of travel, great
discounts and a lower number of tourists on sunny days make the Golden Triangle in
India and Rajasthan a preferred destination. Rains are hardly an obstacle, but sunny
days sometimes lead to hot and humid weather.

Tours and Rajasthan Tours.

• The peak season for travel in India starts with the end of the
monsoon.

the Himalayas and the North East, with sunny warm days. South India receives little
rain with the retreating monsoon. After the gap of the monsoon season, beach
destinations start to open up.
Diwali, the Festival of Lights, is celebrated throughout India. Even before Diwali,
Hindu festivals start, creating a feeling of festivity all around. Indians start preparing
for this festival in advance, cleaning and decorating their homes, buying new
vehicles, and making sweet delicacies at home. The cost of accommodation
increases, and it starts to get busy everywhere.
