The best time to visit Ahmedabad is during the cooler, drier months, typically from October to March.
During this period, the weather is much more pleasant, with average temperatures ranging from 12°C to 30°C. This makes exploring the city's many historical sites and outdoor attractions, such as the Sabarmati Ashram or the Adalaj Stepwell, far more comfortable. You'll find it ideal for leisurely walks through the Old City's pols (traditional housing clusters) and for enjoying the local street food without the intensity of the heat.
April, May, and June are the hottest months, with temperatures often exceeding 40°C, making outdoor activities quite challenging. The monsoon season, from July to September, brings heavy rainfall, which can disrupt travel plans and sightseeing. While the rain does cool things down, humidity remains high.
