When is the best time to visit hampi?

The best time to visit Hampi is during the winter season from October to February, when the weather is pleasant, with cooler temperatures ranging between 15°C to 30°C (59°F to 86°F), making it ideal for sightseeing and exploring the historic ruins. It is best to avoid visiting Hampi during the summer months from March to June, when temperatures can soar above 40°C (104°F), and the monsoon season from July to September, which brings heavy rainfall, making outdoor exploration uncomfortable and some areas inaccessible.

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. I recommend Alkof Holidays, thank you so much. Read more

Our family had a customized tour that included all three national parks for tiger safaris as well as the traditional golden triangle tour. We had 2 different drivers during the tour that picked us up at the airport or drove us to the next location. The drivers were always early, extremely friendly and helpful, and the cars were immaculate. We stayed at six different hotels that were picked out for us. They were all very nice and I would stay at them again. The guides at each location were very knowledgeable and friendly. The company itself stayed in contact with me throughout the trip to make sure I did not need anything. I would highly recommend this company. This tour was much more flexible and convenient than participating in a group tour where everyone has to keep up with a group pace. Read more
