Insider Tip
The best time to take a cruise on the Nile is between the months of October and May when the weather will be warm and sunny in the morning with cool river breezes at night. Don’t forget to pack a swimsuit. Most cruises have swimming pools and sundecks to enjoy in between all the sightseeing.
