What people love about Nile River Cruises in April
- Legend of the Nile: 6-Days Tour for 5 stars Nile Cruise Aswan to Luxor & Sleeper Train Round Trip From Cairo
Khalid was our guide in Luxor, great experience! He gave us plenty of time for photos and explained everything with detail. Very knowledgeable and he took us to the best restaurant in Luxor! It was the best food we had while in Egypt for 2 weeks. Recommend this tour!
- Nile cruise from Aswan to Luxor 4 days/3 Nights
Everything very well organised ! Right at the railwaystation when we stepped out of the train there was our guide Peter with the driver just outside the station. He was very helpful and knows really everything about the places he took us. The latenin the afternoon trip to the Nubian island was amazing. The cruiseship was good with very helpfull and kind people who really want to service you at everything. In Luxor we met our guide Mohammed who was also very incredible in his knowledge about ancient Egypt. With his driver he tool us very comfortable across the highlights of the temples and the valley of kings. The hotel in Luxor also good.
- 4 Days 3 nights 5 stars Nile Cruise Aswan to Luxor
We had a great time. I cannot say enough positive things about Alaa, our guide. His depth of knowledge was exceptional. He could answer every question we had with a detailed answer that showed an impressive mastery (in part reflecting the fact that he has a doctorate in Egyptology). His insights transformed our experience of visiting sites, bringing them alive. But more than that, Alaa was superb in the way that he guided us between the sights. He would advise us on how to deal with the touts and other difficulties. He prepaid any baksheesh required, so we never needed to concern ourselves. When one of our group fell ill at the start of the day and couldn't join us, he arranged with a cousin that was a manager at the Luxor Winter Palace to get her a room upgrade, and when later that day another of our party fell ill in the middle of the tour he arranged for her to be escorted back by taxi and then water taxi to the Winter Palace while we continued our tour - both times without any extra cost to the member of our group. We will be recommending Tourradar and Alaa to a number friends back in London that have been intending to go to Egypt.
What our customers ask about Nile Cruises in April 2025
What is the weather like along the Nile River in April?
April brings comfortable temperatures for Nile River cruising with daytime readings between 25-30°C (77-86°F) at major stops like Luxor and Aswan. The moderate climate makes exploring outdoor sites such as Karnak Temple and Valley of the Kings particularly pleasant. Pack lightweight clothing for daytime activities but include a light jacket for air-conditioned spaces on cruise ships like the MS Royal Lily and Le Fayan 2.
What are the best day trips from major Nile cities in April?
Day trips from Nile cities shine in April. Travelers can take early morning flights to Abu Simbel from Aswan float above Luxor's West Bank in hot air balloons or explore the less-visited Dendera Temple. The Old Cataract Hotel serves an elegant afternoon tea with Nile views. As one TourRadar reviewer notes: "The April sunrise balloon ride over Luxor followed by the Abu Simbel day trip were absolute highlights of our Nile journey."
What are the accommodation options along the Nile River in April?
The Nile River corridor offers a range of places to stay from upscale hotels to floating accommodations. Top choices include the Jolie Ville Luxor Resort Steigenberger Nile Palace and 5-star cruise vessels. The Sonesta St. George in Luxor and Cairo Sheraton provide rooms with river views. A TourRadar review states: "The April weather made the cruise ship's pool deck perfect for relaxing between excursions while our room at the Steigenberger had amazing Nile views."
What is the price range for Nile River cruises in April?
Expect to pay between 520-1299 USD for 4-5 day Nile cruises in April. Standard 5-star boats like Le Fayan 2 start at 530 USD for 4 days while luxury vessels such as MS Royal Lily reach 1299 USD. Book 3-4 months ahead for the best rates as April sees higher demand than off-season months.
Are there any special events or festivals along the Nile River in April?
April brings Sham El-Nessim an ancient Egyptian spring celebration along the Nile. Cruise ships including the Princess Sarah and MS Royal Lily host Egyptian nights and traditional Galabaya parties. Cultural performances and music events take place at major sites like Luxor Temple and Kom Ombo Temple adding to the festive atmosphere.
Which Nile River cruise itinerary is best for April weather conditions?
The 4-5 day Aswan to Luxor route works well with April's weather patterns. Ships like Princess Sarah and Le Fayan 2 take this popular route stopping at Kom Ombo Edfu and Philae temples. Clear April skies create good conditions for temple visits and the optional Abu Simbel excursion benefits from mild temperatures.
