Mathura & Vrindavan in February: a fine time to go
February: comfortable 24°C days — and inside the recommended window.
February is the middle of Mathura & Vrindavan's season — the recommended window is October – March (Holi: Mar). Mild days around 24°C, nights near 12°C, almost no rain. Stays run about 30% above the usual rate this month. Holi (Lathmar) can fall in February, which changes both prices and what you can book.
March is in season too. The season runs to the end of March, next month. The rains usually arrive in July, 5 months away. The heat usually builds in April, 2 months away.
