Best time to visit India

India is always in season – it just depends on where you go. October to March is ideal for most regions, with cooler weather and clear skies. April to June brings heat and adventure, perfect for the Himalayas or hill stations. July to September, the monsoon adds magic — lush landscapes, festivals, and fewer crowds.

Whenever you go, India will move you.
