The best time to visit Bharatpur Bird Sanctuary for bird watching is during the winter months, from October to March. During this period, the sanctuary becomes a haven for a diverse array of migratory birds that arrive from various parts of the world, including Siberia, Central Asia, and Europe. The cool and pleasant weather, coupled with the vibrant presence of these exotic bird species, makes it an ideal time for bird enthusiasts and nature lovers to explore and enjoy the sanctuary's rich avian biodiversity.

The Golden Triangle, encompassing Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur, shines brightest during the pleasant months! October to March offers ideal weather for sightseeing - warm days and cool nights. However, December and January can get chilly in Delhi, while the south experiences peak tourist season with higher prices. Shoulder seasons (April-May and September-October) see lower crowds and decent weather, though April and May can be quite hot. For the most comfortable exploration, aim for October to March (excluding December/January).

We had to alter our plans and extended the tour for 2 more days. From second day we started our sightseeing of Delhi, next day visited Agra, then Fatehpur Sikri and then Jaipur. The driver and the local guides were punctual, polite, and worked very hard to make our trip enjoyable. Sachin made sure we saw everything on our bucket list.

The ratings are given in the context of the price we paid which was extremely reasonable for the attentive service we were given. We were looked after at all times including being dropped off onto our correct train carriage in Delhi. The itinerary was full but not rushed. I would use Alkof tours again and recommend them to others. Read more
