Blooming flowers, mild weather, and fewer crowds, Spring has well and truly sprung come April. Whether you're exploring the romantic Rhine in Europe, the majestic Danube, or perhaps the exotic Mekong in Southeast Asia, April could be a great time to embark on a river cruise adventure exploring the world's waterways.
April is the perfect month to cruise the Belgian Waterways to see the stunning bulb fields in bloom, or cruise Europe’s most legendary rivers including the Rhine and the Danube. Many cruises lines offers themed cruises specifically for this event, with excursions visiting the stunning Keukenhof Gardens for you to witness the extraordinary event up close.
You could also explore further afield, as there are a number of itineraries across Asia and the Far East to Cambodia and Vietnam, and also in the Middle East along Egypt’s legendary Nile.
