As a result, the most common question that many people have is which nation they should visit in April.

If you're still undecided about where to go in April, check out our list of the top 15 April holiday destinations!

Thailand - South Asia

Even though April is the hottest month of the year in Thailand, travellers from all over the world rush to this country. The reason for this is that this is when the Thai people celebrate the Songkran water celebration. The Songkran water festival takes place in Thailand from April 13 to April 15, and it is a time when Thai people pay their respects to the Buddha, especially the elderly. Thai people often make traditional foods and dress up in colourful clothes for this event.

On the first day of the celebration, young people traditionally wash the hands of the elderly with perfumed water in order to ask for forgiveness and blessings. The next day of Songkran is Family Day when everyone gathers with their family for lunch and visits the temples to give offerings. After the offerings, everyone will construct water pistols, water dippers, and other weapons in preparation for a water war.

Where to stay

If you're visiting Thailand in April, you should stay in one of the two major cities, Pattaya or Bangkok. In Bangkok, the festival will take place around the Banglamphu area, especially Khao San Road, Phra Athit Road, Santichai Prakan, Wisut Kasat and Rattanakosin Royal Square. Many significant and unique activities are taking place in Pattaya these days, including parades, special cultural events, and a thrilling water war.

Travel Tips

You can participate in this water festival in many multiple towns in Thailand. However, if you want to avoid the heat, Chiang Mai is the best option. Because the temperature in Chiang Mai is normally in the 20-30 degree Celsius range at this time of year, it will be much more comfortable than in Bangkok or Pattaya.

Bolivia - South America

If you're searching for the best place to travel in April with a great temperature in April, consider visiting Bolivia, which is nestled in the Andes mountains. Tourism Bolivia attracts visitors from all over the world not just because of its stunning natural beauty, but also because of its highly rich and diversified culture. Learning about Bolivian culture entails studying Latin American culture as well. You will not be regretful for spending so much money on a trip here!

Why go in April?

Bolivia is a country in central South America with a diversified landscape that includes the spectacular glacial peaks of the Andes, as well as the Amazon basin's jungles and wide savannas. 

And because April is when the rainy season begins to finish and the dry season begins to emerge, it is the ideal and most beautiful time to see the spectacular tourist sites, including the world's largest salt desert. Salar de Uyuni, Inca Trail, and Nevado Sajama, a massive volcanic summit.

Where to stay

Bolivia offers a lot of fascinating and appealing places for us to visit. The capital, La Paz, should be your first stop on your Bolivia tour because it is a must-see for any visitor. The Bolivian capital, La Paz, is the world's highest capital, at 3640 metres above sea level. This is also a reason why La Paz is known as the city buried in the sky. The higher you travel, the more structures appear along the slope, hidden in the clouds and creating a lovely natural environment.

Travel Tips

When travelling to Bolivia, according to Travel Tips, you can move from a freezing mountain temperature to a steamy and humid forest in a single day.  You should pack a selection of outfits if you're visiting Bolivia's Andean area.

Temperatures can dip below freezing in the mornings and nights, but in the afternoons, when the sun shines brilliantly, it will be difficult to adjust to the weather here if you do not pack a range of clothing.

Furthermore, remember to carry a travel raincoat because rainstorms can strike at any time, especially during the rainy season (November to March).

Amsterdam - the Netherlands

Amsterdam has a reputation for being a unique city. Because few people realise that the Netherlands' busiest location has so many lyrical and tranquil moments. The capital of the Netherlands, Amsterdam, is an excellent spot to visit in April. The slender structures originating from the 18th century that border the more than 100km long canals are the city's showpiece. It is a waste of time to visit Amsterdam without wandering around the plaza or appreciating the beauty of the canals.

The twisting canals of Amsterdam draw tourists from all over the globe, and bicycles emerge on every corner of the city, giving the impression that one is standing in the second Venice. This city has a tranquil, soothing atmosphere reminiscent of a lovely French scenario.

Where to stay

In Amsterdam, there are two possibilities for lodging: one is in the city centre, which is handy to move and lively but is rather costly, and the other is outside the city. If you want to save money, you can stay at a suburban hotel, which will be less expensive. In the suburbs, select a hotel close to a Metro station; it takes approximately 5-10 minutes by train, which is also extremely handy; however, the evening will be less crowded.

Travel Tips

If you're visiting Amsterdam for the first time, you're probably a little lost. Get a tourist map or read the travel suggestions below to help you plan your trip!

The city of Amsterdam is split into a number of districts and areas. This includes the city's core as well as the remaining East, West, South, and North districts. Tourists usually mainly visit the core region of Ams, which contains the following important districts:

• The Old Centre contains many stores, beautiful canals, and unique historic structures, as well as well-known tourist attractions including Dam Square, Nieuwmarkt, Spui, and the red light district.
• The Canal Ring is a 17th-century network of waterways. This is still a popular location today, with vibrant streets like Leidseplein and Rembrandtplein at night.
• Jordaan district, which dates from the 19th century, is known for its art galleries, souvenir shops, and monuments of prominent people.
• Plantage is recognised for its several museums, as well as the Artis Royal Zoo and Botanic Garden.

Naples - Italy

Naples is Italy's third-largest city, situated in the southern Campania region and on the coast at the northern end of the Gulf of Naples. Naples tourism draws visitors to the coastal area, which features a lengthy coastline with gentle waves, gorgeous beaches, mediaeval churches, and thousands of years of historical monuments. 

Except for the bitterly cold winter months, Italy is rather mild. Between March and June, when it is no longer cold and the average temperature is around 20 to 25 degrees Celsius, is the greatest season to visit.

When tourists have the opportunity to travel to Italy, they will always select Naples as a must-see destination. Naples has the most museums and national monuments in Italy, while not being as developed as Pisa or as poetic as Venice. When you visit Naples, you will see the old fortress of Pompeii, which was destroyed by the eruption of Vesuvius, which reduced Rome's most wealthy town to ashes. Alternatively, you can take a train from Naples to the island of Capri for a holiday in the best holiday destinations in april.

Where to stay

You can select from a wide range of hotels in Napoli, ranging from affordable to high-end. For easy transit during your vacation, look for hotels near bus or taxi lines. The Ramada Naples hotel is a good choice. 

This hotel has a wonderful position because it is immediately close to Garibaldi station, which makes it easy for trains to Pompeii and Sorrento. It is also only a ten-minute walk from the town. The rooms are decorated in sophisticated burgundy tones, and the bathroom has a huge bathtub in addition to minimum equipment.

Travel Tips

When taking public transportation in Italy, you need to be careful with your belongings because public transport is highly congested and there is a lot of theft. Furthermore, traffic might cease operating at any time throughout the week, so read the instructions on the website carefully to minimise problems.

Zambia - Southern Africa

When travelling in Africa, Brazil is typically not the first choice because travel packages in Zambia are sometimes more expensive than in surrounding countries. However, few people are aware that Zambia is home to several huge parks and safari regions with a diverse range of wild and valuable species.

Travelling to Zambia is a thrilling adventure across the American country. It features lovely landscapes, delectable cuisine, breathtaking views, and a plethora of historic attractions. You will remember your journey to Zambia for the rest of your life. Zambia's stunning untouched natural scenery and several unique works of art attract visitors.

The studio has just been refurbished and provides modern city living in a peaceful and secure setting. The apartment offers a beautiful view of the owner's lush garden, as well as a swimming pool service in the studio's yard.

Travel Tips

When travelling in Brazil, keep a close eye on all of your goods and avoid leaving bags or suitcases on the floor. Because bad guys can grab your luggage in a matter of seconds. It's quite hard to get it back in this nation after it's been removed. You might not be aware that Brazil has one of the world's highest crime rates. 

As a result, displaying riches or flashing personal fortune is regarded as a taboo in Brazil that must be avoided at all costs. Keep all precious jewellery, such as rings and necklaces, at home when heading out. If you have a phone or a camera, you should keep it in your pocket and be extremely careful not to lose it.

Japan - Northeast Asia

Japan in April is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. Few individuals can stand up to the delicate, sweet beauty of this robust yet fragile flower. 

Not to mention the hectic festivals and spring gastronomic delights, which will make you enthusiastically forget about the long journey back home. In general, the climate in April in Japan is nice; the average temperature is 17 degrees Celsius, with nighttime temperatures dropping to 10 degrees Celsius, making it chilly. The beginning of April, however, will be significantly cooler than the end of April.

Travel Tips

When travelling in Japan, you must have cash on hand to pay for the majority of your expenses. Many ATMs in Japan are only accessible with credit or debit cards. Furthermore, you cannot withdraw cash from convenience stores or supermarkets. 

As a result, tourists should bring cash with them when visiting Japan. Larger establishments that sell apparel or gadgets will accept credit cards, while restaurants, smaller shops, and temples will only accept cash. As a result, be sure you have adequate money for your planned vacation to Japan!

Nepal - South Asia

The Nepalese people's festival to greet the new year begins on April 9 and lasts for 9 days. During these nine days, the deity Bhairava and Goddess Bhadrakali are carried in two big chariots and drawn across a vast plaza, followed by a New Year blessing ceremony for everyone.

In addition, tourist sites include Devi Waterfall, Fewa Lake, Mahendra Cave, Barahi Temple, World Peace Pagoda, and the National Mountain Museum.

Where to stay

For your future vacation, you might consider residing near the Annapurna Circuit-Nepal region. The Annapurna Circuit, located in northern Nepal, features the various landscapes of the Annapurna area and is a popular choice for adventure seekers. 

Crossing gorges deep in the dry plains and lush tropical valleys filled with exquisite terraces allow visitors to ascend the tremendous Himalayas. Visitors can also visit the temples and beautiful towns that are sprinkled along the path.

Travel Tips

There are so many youngsters begging in Kathmandu, especially in the Thamel region, that it is difficult to resist their imploring gaze. However, you should think twice before donating money to these youngsters because they are sometimes pushed by lazy adults or informal labour.

Ha Noi - Vietnam - Southeast Asia

Every season in Hanoi has its own charm, with April being the freshness and delight of nature, heaven and earth, heralding the arrival of summer. If you're visiting Hanoi in April, all you need to do is pack some cool clothing to explore the old streets.

So, what is it about Hanoi in April that consistently draws tourists? When you visit Hanoi in April, you will find trucks full of white lilies on the streets, street vendors, and marketplaces, among other places. Or take in the picturesque beauty of Hoan Kiem Lake and Sword Lake. You will have a different impression of Hanoi before the natural environment during the changeover between spring and summer.

Where to stay

There are several alternatives in Hanoi, ranging from low-cost hostels and motels to high-end hotels. However, if you want to visit Hanoi around weekends or festivals, you should reserve a stay at least 2-3 weeks in advance to prevent accommodation shortages or exorbitant pricing.

Those visiting Hanoi for the first time usually choose hotels in the Old Quarter neighbourhood of Hanoi for easy sightseeing and shopping. However, this location is fairly busy, with traffic delays during peak hours, so renting a hotel in Tay Ho, Ba Dinh, or Hai Ba Trung districts is also a smart idea.

Travel Tips

The temperature in Hanoi in the summer is not very hot, but it is fairly hot, smoky, and busy, so pack only thin, lightweight garments with adequate sweat absorption. Theft happens whether you're in Hanoi or anywhere else. As a result, keep only the required documents, a little amount of change, and a bank card in your pocket. If you go out, remember to leave your luggage at the hotel; if you go a long distance, remember to carry your bags and essential documents with you.

Australia - Oceania

Australia has a lot to offer, from a bustling metropolis to peaceful villages to enormous rainforests and deserts. It's hard to pick just one destination to visit in Australia, but if you have the chance, travel to the Great Barrier Reef, Whitsunday Islands, Bondi Sea, or Ayers Rocks. Furthermore, Melbourne, the world's most livable city, will welcome visitors with its simplicity while remaining modern and lively.

The most beautiful light festival in Australia takes place towards the end of April. This is the most ideal epic light music event. Every year, it begins in the middle of April and lasts until the beginning of June. There are almost 60 light installation places. The world's most skilled artists have created one-of-a-kind digital technology performances. Mobile light art is particularly eye-catching in a variety of contexts, including video games, fashion, and cinematography.

Where to stay

When you travel, come to Melbourne to wear a new jersey with the Melbourne Cup. Enjoying opera, jazz, blues, and sculpture among the wines of the Hunter Valley, near Sydney, is something you should do here. On Western Australia's Margaret River, you can also enjoy wine, diving, and surfing. At Queensland's World Heritage-listed Daintree Rainforest, take a walk through the primaeval forest.

Travel Tips

Visitors can use public transportation to get from one destination to another, such as the bus, tram, and subway. In addition, Australia has a railway system in places such as Sydney, Newcastle, and New South Wales.

In addition, taxis are a mode of transportation that you can use. However, the cost of a cab in Australia is rather high; the charge increases in the evening, as well as on weekends and holidays. As a result, unless there is an emergency, most residents in this city rarely use taxis to get around.

Phu Quoc Island - Vietnam - Southeast Asia

Phu Quoc is the best beach vacation in April. This natural wonder is also known as Pearl Island. April is also the last month before the end of the dry season, which is the most beautiful time to visit Phu Quoc. So you can be confident in planning a trip to Ngoc Island during this period.

Travel Tips

To round up your vacation to Phu Quoc, keep the following points in mind:

• Get a map of Phu Quoc as soon as you arrive.

• If you intend to purchase pearls, go to reputable shops to prevent purchasing counterfeit items.

Where to stay

Switzerland is well-known for its high-altitude hotels and resorts. They are either snug winter shelters with chilly snowfall or simply a wonderful view position with spectacular mountains, rivers, and lakes below.

Travel Tips

Certainly, money is always considered necessary for travel in general, and tourism in Switzerland in particular. Payment cards such as Express, Diners Club, MasterCard, and Visa are commonly accepted. However, while purchasing items from souvenir stores, you must pay in cash. It is worth noting that Switzerland does not utilise the Euro. You should switch to Francs for ease of travel and shopping. Only a few tourist destinations, such as Zurich and Bern, accept the Euro. So keep this in mind if you're planning a trip to Switzerland. To avoid excessive transaction costs at the bank, you can redeem your money by exchanging Euro cash at a local business in the tourist cities of Zurich and Bern.

Your visit to Cuba will undoubtedly leave you with many amazing memories.

If you visit Cuba, don't miss the cobblestone alleys of Old Havana because this is the best place that is warm in april.

Where to stay

Because Cuba has not engaged in tourism as much as other Asian countries, its hotels are not particularly opulent or luxurious. Part of this is also attributable to the lingering effects of war. That is also why, when visiting Cuba, you should avoid booking a nice and sophisticated hotel. However, it is still feasible to secure nice accommodations at a reasonable price.

Travel Tips

When visiting Cuba, you should be familiar with the money system, as there are two. This nation employs CUC (Cuban Convertible Peso) for visitors and CUP (Cuban Peso) for natives. According to the Cuban travel experience, the CUC coin is more valuable than the CUP coin; 1 CUC equals 1 US dollar, whereas the CUP equals 1,000 VND. As a result, if you don't want to spend too much, change to CUP to spend.

These are the countries you should visit in April; there are many more, but we chose the most fascinating vacation destinations. We hope you've decided which place to visit in April, and we wish you the best of luck on your future holiday!
