Best time to visit Mumbai

While planning a trip to Mumbai avoid the monsoon months of June through September, when Mumbai becomes one big, overflowing pothole.

Plan your trip between October and April when the air is pleasant and there is relatively less humidity.

If you can manage to visit Mumbai in August/September you could participate in the celebrations during Ganesh Chaturthi, which is one of the biggest festivals in Mumbai.




Celebrated to honour the elephant headed god - Ganesha, who is considered a very benign god in hindu mythology, this festival is the event to witness.

Huge processions chanting "Ganapati Bappa Moriya" carry massive idols of the divine figure to the beaches where they are submerged in the sea. This is a truly Indian cultural spectacle, which one should not miss.
