    Best Time To Visit Aurangabad

    Plan your trip during best season to experience the best of this stunning destination

    The best time to visit Aurangabad is winter. Its highlights include cooler temperatures, clearer skies, and minimal or no rainfall. Providing ample outdoor opportunities, winter in Aurangabad attracts heavy crowds worldwide. Whether you wish to explore popular heritage sites like Bibi Ka Maqbara and the Ajanta or encounter wildlife at Siddharth Garden & Zoo, winter offers the best experiences. As summers can be extreme and rainfall can disrupt outdoor adventures, winter is the ideal time to explore, rejuvenate, and relax. In summer, travellers can have a great time in the early mornings and late evenings by exploring the attractions, local markets, and more. Lastly, monsoons in Aurangabad make the surroundings lively, especially after extreme summer. However, it may challenge some outdoor enthusiasts to explore and travel.

    Climate in Aurangabad

    Summer Season in Aurangabad

    The summer season in Aurangabad can be scorching, making it challenging for travellers to participate in outdoor activities. If you can bear the heat, consider early mornings and late evenings to explore the region for the best time. As summer is the off-season, you can expect fewer crowds, especially at famous attractions like the Ajanta. Summer can be extreme, so keeping yourself hydrated is recommended. Also, carrying essentials like sunscreen and sunglasses is a must. Overall, summer is not the best time to visit Aurangabad, but those who wish to escape heavy crowds can plan a trip during the season.

    Monsoon Season in Aurangabad

    The rain, surely, brings relief to all travellers due to a slight drop in temperatures but it brings challenges for outdoor leisure. Nature lovers can have the best time sightseeing fresh and green landscapes under cooler temperatures. However, adventure seekers and outdoor enthusiasts make many sites challenging to access. During monsoon season, the places near vegetation, including the Ajanta and Ellora, look more appealing due to mist and rain. The scenic beauty and landscapes set the mood for perfect pictures and videos. Additionally, you can have a great time exploring Daulatabad Fort, unlike in summer due to the cooler temperatures. If you plan a vacation to Aurangabad in the monsoon season, prepare for heavy rainfall and some restricted adventures. Some of the best activities during this season in Aurangabad include exploring waterfalls, birdwatching, and nature walks.

    Winter Season in Aurangabad

    Anytime between October and February is the best month to visit Aurangabad. During winter, you can take part in numerous activities comfortably. The weather is cool, with more transparent skies and minimal/no rainfall, making your vacation exciting and fantastic. You can witness many festivals, like Makar Sakranti, and delve deeper into the region's rich culture. You can easily visit many popular landmarks in winter, including Bibi Ka Maqbara, Siddharth Garden & Zoo, and Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Museum. Exploring the local markets to indulge in authentic culinary delights and buy souvenirs is among the best things to do here. Overall, winter is the perfect time to plan a vacation to Aurangabad for an exhilarating experience.

      Moturi's 4 days trip to Aurangabad

      My trip itenary was designed by Shreya from back2holidays. She has prepared the itenary according to my requirements and it was very well fitted. The hotels were good and made us comfortable during our stay. The diver given to us was very polite and covered all the places.

      Dhruvsolanki's 4 days trip to Aurangabad

      The trip was amazing. The prices were reasonable too with a good choice of accommodation. The only concern I faced was that the driver was advised to take a shortcut which was not that smooth but saved some kms and some tolls. This would have been fair provided I would have been informed of the same
      in the first hand. Other than that everything was excellent.

      Somnath Dash

      Somnath's 5 days trip to Aurangabad

      A Memorable Family Trip with BackToHolidays – Special Thanks to Shreya Rajput Recently, my family of seven, including four senior citizens, embarked on a memorable trip to Mumbai and nearby destinations such as Khandala, Lonavala, Shirdi, Mahabaleshwar, and Panchgani. Initially, I faced challenges
      in planning the trip due to the diverse needs of my group. Arranging suitable transport, comfortable hotels, and selecting the right locations was overwhelming, especially since I wasn’t familiar with the region. That’s when BackToHolidays and Shreya Rajput stepped in and completely transformed our travel experience. Shreya not only helped me plan the trip from scratch but ensured every minute detail was taken care of. She crafted a personalized itinerary based on our preferences, unlike other travel agencies that often stick to rigid, template-based plans. What truly set her apart was her proactive involvement throughout the trip. Shreya called me daily to check on our experience, ensuring that each day went smoothly and making adjustments whenever necessary. Upon our request, she even arranged a guided tour in Mumbai, further enhancing our experience. Her attention to detail, care, and exceptional customer service made the entire journey stress-free and memorable for everyone, especially our senior family members. Recommendation: The only suggestion I would have for future travelers is to spend more time in Mahabaleshwar and Panchgani during the winter months, as these locations are exceptionally beautiful and deserve extra time to explore. A heartfelt thank you to BackToHolidays and especially Shreya Rajput for making our family trip so special. I highly recommend their services to anyone seeking a personalized and well-organized travel experience!
