Jaipur in December

October through March is perfect—clear skies, comfortable temperatures, and all the festivals. December and January get cool at night, sometimes dropping to 5°C, so pack layers. The peak season means higher prices and crowds at major sights. April through June is brutal—temperatures hit 45°C and the sun is merciless. Monsoon season (July-September) brings relief from heat but also flooding and humidity. Here's the insider tip: November is ideal. Post-monsoon freshness, perfect weather, and Diwali celebrations light up the city. Avoid the week around Diwali unless you love crowds—hotel prices triple.
