India isn’t a great travel experience because it’s just like your home country, but because it’s so different. Sweating is often required. April through late June is the hot, dry season in North India, which is then replaced by the humid, rainy monsoon season from July through August. September through November can be quite pleasant, December through January a bit cold (at least at nights), and February through March nice again.
While Go Deeper Travel will do much to mitigate risks and assure a quality experience, India’s unpredictability means there is much we can’t control. So bring an attitude of flexibility, caring for others, and adventure. You’ll have some stories to tell, no doubt.
