From Holi in March to Dev Deepawali in November — plan around joy.
India rewards travellers who plan around the seasons. From Holi in March to Dev Deepawali in November — plan around joy. In this guide our travel designers share what they tell friends before they go.
When to go
Timing changes everything — the same valley can be snowbound, blooming or rain-washed depending on the month. Check our seasons guide and each destination's month-by-month bar before you lock dates.
How to plan it
Give yourself one more night than you think you need, travel with a trusted driver, and leave room for the unplanned — a village festival, a roadside chai, a sunset that asks you to stay.
