Pack light cotton clothes for most of the year: Hyderabad is warm year-round and very hot in April and May (about 38–39°C). December and January nights drop to about 13–14°C, so bring a light layer.
Hyderabad is warm year-round and very hot in April and May, so light cotton clothes are the base of the bag. Add a travel sunscreen, a packable sun hat and an insulated bottle for long, hot days.
From June to September the monsoon arrives, and a compact umbrella is worth the space. For temples and mosques, a light scarf covers shoulders or your head. Bring a Type D adapter, and since most trips home include gifts, a luggage scale keeps both bags under 23 kg.
The monsoon runs roughly June to September, with the most rain in August. November to February is the most comfortable time to visit. India uses Type C, D and M plugs at 230 V: bring a Type D adapter.
