When is the best time to visit India?
The best time to take a cruise holiday to India depends on the region you want to explore and the specific experiences you’re seeking.
Generally, the most popular time for tourism is during the winter months, from October to March, when the weather is cooler and more pleasant in most parts of the country. This is an excellent time to visit popular destinations like Rajasthan, the Taj Mahal, and South India, as the temperatures are comfortable for sightseeing and outdoor activities.
However, if you want to experience India’s vibrant festivals, particularly Diwali and Holi, or explore the Himalayan region for trekking and adventure, the best time to visit would be during the shoulder seasons of spring (March to April) and autumn (September to November). These months offer a balance between manageable weather conditions and cultural experiences.
It’s also essential to consider factors like local holidays, festivals and peak tourist seasons. It’s always a good idea to consult with one of our cruise agents who will give you the best advice!
