💬 Tips & Notes
Ahmedabad isn't a city you "tour." You move in for a few days and let it grow on you.
October to February is the sweet spot. Pleasant weather, festival season (Navratri, Uttarayan). Summers will cook you alive (45°C+). Monsoons are beautiful but humid.
Auto-rickshaws are everywhere. Use shared ones for the real experience. BRTS buses cover the main routes. If you're staying a while, rent a scooter. Best way to explore, no contest.
The city is largely vegetarian, but incredible non-veg exists in pockets like Behrampura, Jamalpur, and Juhapura. Breakfast culture is massive here. Fafda-jalebi on Sunday morning is basically law.
Gujarat is a dry state. No alcohol served legally. But the city's "nightlife" is its night food markets, late-night chai stalls, and the Manek Chowk scene that runs past midnight. You won't miss the drinks.
