Rajasthan

Known for its majestic forts, lavish palaces, and rich culture, it is a popular choice for travelers looking for a royal holiday. But just like Delhi, Rajasthan has very hot summers between April and June with temperatures over 45 degrees Celsius almost all the time during the day. So, walking around the Thar Desert or ascending Mehrangarh Fort in the blistering heat can be quite exhausting and can make you feel sick. Government has advised us not to go out during the day and to always keep hydrated. The cooler months October-March are more comfortable for sight-seeing and desert safaris.

Kerala

Often referred to as “God’s Own Country” – is a haven for nature buffs and those looking for some relaxation. Cardamom hills, tranquil backwaters caressing palm trees and pristine beaches paint a beautiful picture of this region. But Kerala also has a monsoon season from May to August with heavy rainfall. If you are aware of the news, Kerala is currently facing heavy rainfall, that may get improved in the next few weeks. The rain can add to the charm but it can also be disruptive. Waterlogged roads, landslides and cancellation of flights due to poor visibility are some of the things you might have to contend with during this time. If you want to explore the backwaters of kerala or laze on the beaches, it might be better to wait till the monsoon rains recede (September onwards).

Gujarat

Gujarat is famous for its colorful markets, stunning architectural heritage and rich cultural history which makes it a popular tourist destination. However, summers (April-June) in Gujarat are scorching with temperatures soaring between 40-50 degrees Celsius. Walking through the crowded markets or reaching remote historical places in such intense heat waves can be uncomfortable and can cause sunburn. It is advisable to avoid the prolonged exposure of direct sun. The months between October-March are quite pleasant for a truly enriching experience of Gujarat.

Madhya Pradesh

Madhya Pradesh with its majestic tigers prowling through the ancient jungles and temples with stories to tell from centuries ago, is a favorite tourist spot. Like Gujarat, summers (April-June) in Madhya Pradesh are scorching with temperatures soaring above 45 degrees Celsius. Walking through the nature trails of the wildlife sanctuaries or reaching the historical places is prohibited during this time. For enjoying the quiet pleasant weather suitable for the wildlife safari in Gujarat and exploring the historical places you should visit from October to March.

Assam and Manipur

A land of tea gardens, wildlife and exotic cultural traditions, Assam is quite a place to be in and located between the hills and calm lakes Manipur also known as the “Jewel of the East” However, like Kerala, Assam and Manipur also witnesses monsoon between June and September with torrential rains. Poor visibility and torrential rains often hamper the flight schedules and your travel gets affected. Roads and bridges get flooded and it becomes difficult to travel within the region. Currently, cyclone Remal hits both Assam and Manipur pretty badly affecting more than 90 thousand people. So, if you plan a holiday in Assam, avoid the peak monsoon months from June to August and target the comparatively drier months after September.
