Weather Advantage: Why December is the Best Month

A significant part of the reason that a trip to Rajasthan in winter is a good idea is the weather. The days are generally quite reasonable, with temperatures varying from 10°C and 25°C, great for sightseeing, outdoor safaris, etc. The evenings are a little cooler and are perfect for bonfire meet-ups, music shows, and desert feasts.

In the winter, sightseeing and exploring forts are not tiring experiences like they are in the summer when you are taking long walks through forts or riding a camel through the dunes.
