Best Time for the Golden Triangle Tour

The best time to visit India’s Golden Triangle—Delhi, Agra and Jaipur—is from October to March, when the weather is generally cooler and comfortable for sightseeing.

October to March: Best Season

Pleasant daytime temperatures make this the most popular period for visiting monuments, forts, markets and heritage sites. December and January can bring cold mornings and occasional fog, particularly in Delhi and Agra, so carry warm clothing.

April to June: Summer Season

These months are usually hot, especially during the afternoon. Sightseeing is still possible by starting early in the morning, taking a midday break and travelling in an air-conditioned vehicle.

July to September: Monsoon Season

The monsoon brings occasional rain, greener surroundings and fewer tourists. Visitors may enjoy better hotel rates, although short delays and humid weather are possible.

Recommended months: October, November, February and March
Ideal tour duration: 4 nights / 5 days
Travel tip: The Taj Mahal is closed every Friday, so plan your travel dates accordingly.
