The short answer
When to go to Bidar
The best window is November to February, when days are dry and mild, with highs near 28 to 33 degrees and cool mornings. March to May is hot, and April and May in particular make the fort and tombs tiring. The monsoon from June to October brings heavy rain, with August the wettest month, and ruins can be slippery. For older travellers, the winter months and early starts make the fort and tombs much easier.
