Mumbai
Hectic, loud and busy. No other words could describe Mumbai better. A capital of Bollywood was a truly overwhelming destination for us. But on the other side we are happy we have visited this place. It was incredible opportunity to see the local culture and daily life of people of Mumbai.
Best time to visit Mumbai
june – september
november – march
Mumbai’s weather depends on monsoons. You should definitely consider this factor when planning your visit. Temperatures also change. Best time to go to Mumbai is definitely between November and March.
Summer months are affected by monsoon. It usually starts in June and lasts until October. Mumbai is one of the cities with heavy rainfall. It can deifnitely ruin your holiday if you plan to do some sightseeing. Price might be cheaper though. May and June are also very hot and humid months. It is almost unbearable to be in the city.
Winter months are the best for exploring Mumbai. The temperatures are very pleasant. It is still very warm and hot. Evenings are a bit cooler. Almost every day is sunny. It is great time for walking around the city.

TIP: The tourist area of Mumbai is around Churchgate train station. There you will find multiple hostels, hotels and restaurants. It is also cleaner part of the city. Expect higher prices. We personally stayed in a non-tourist area near Sandhurst road. It felt very safe and we saved a few bucks.
