When is the best time to visit North India?

The best time to visit North India depends on your preferences and the specific region you plan to explore. Generally, the ideal time is during the winter months from October to March when the weather is cooler and more pleasant. This period is perfect for exploring popular destinations like Delhi, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, and Himachal Pradesh, as temperatures are milder and conducive to outdoor activities and sightseeing. Spring (February to April) and autumn (September to October) are also favorable, offering pleasant weather with fewer crowds compared to peak summer and winter seasons. However, regions like the Himalayas are best visited during the summer months (April to June) when the weather is warmer and ideal for trekking and outdoor adventures.

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.

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.
