Best Time To Visit Maharashtra

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

Nestled in the western and central parts of India, Maharashtra is a testament to its rich heritage. Maharashtra is home to beautiful beaches, lush green mountains, and fascinating woodlands. The Gateway of India, Panchgani, Lonavala, and Mumbai are prominent tourist spots that attract many visitors yearly. Despite a thriving economy with several bustling metro cities, the region harbours some delightful places to escape the fast-paced urban life.

Maharashtra experiences extreme cold or dry temperatures throughout the year. With an average temperature between 16 and 32 degrees, winter, i.e., October to February, is the best time to visit Maharashtra for sightseeing, trekking, and swimming. However, from March to May, the temperature rises to 40 degrees Celsius, making it difficult for tourists to enjoy sightseeing. The rainy season in Maharashtra begins in June and continues till September. The weather of Maharashtra remains wet for most of the year, and the lush green valleys in the hill stations here are pleasing to the eyes.

Climate in Maharashtra

Summer Season in Maharashtra

Maharashtra experiences summer from March to May, with temperatures ranging from 20 to 40 degrees Celsius. Due to the hot and humid weather, summer is not the best time to visit Maharashtra. May is the hottest month in Maharashtra. However, the temperature in hill stations like Mahabaleshwar, Lonavala, and Matheran is low compared to other plain areas of Maharastra.

Monsoon Season in Maharashtra

With temperatures ranging from 23 to 34 degrees Celsius, the Monsoon offers relief from the scorching heat of Summer. The Monsoon season in Maharashtra lasted from June until September. Maharashtra experiences heavy rainfall from June to September, especially in July and August. However, monsoon season is not a good time for outdoor activities, but it is an ideal time for those who want to enjoy the green landscape.

Winter Season in Maharashtra

The pleasant and cool weather makes winter the best time to visit Maharashtra. With temperatures ranging from 16 to 32 degrees, Maharashtra experiences winter from October to February. The clear, bright sky and the gentle breeze allow visitors to indulge in various outdoor activities like trekking, sightseeing, boating and many more. However, the best month to visit Maharashtra is between November and February, when the beauty of this place is at its peak. Visiting various hill stations like Panchgani, Chikaldhara, and Malshej Ghat on your next Maharashtra trip will give you a memorable experience.

    Moturi Sree

    Pune

    Moturi's 4 days trip to Maharashtra

    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

    Mumbai

    Dhruvsolanki's 4 days trip to Maharashtra

    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's 5 days trip to Maharashtra

    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!

    Mandawkar's 3 days trip to Maharashtra

    Back 2 Holidays did an amazing job organizing our trip!!! We enjoyed every destination and hotel they recommended, except for the hotel in Tarkarli. Shrey’s personalized care and expertise made our visit to Konkan truly memorable — special thanks to her! We highly recommend their services to anyon
    e looking for a smooth and comfortable travel experience. Thank you for making our journey unforgettable. However, we are still unsure why Travel Triangle charges ₹300 per person. This should have been mentioned during the initial discussions
