Suitable for families with children

Family verdict

Go with kids 5–15 for Science City, kite flying at Makar Sankranti, and street food tours along the Sabarmati Riverfront. Skip the old city's heavy traffic with younger kids under 5, and avoid summer months when heat peaks. Plan visits for cooler seasons and book hotels near the riverfront to minimize travel through congested areas.
