Early Retiree Posted December 23, 2007 #1 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Has anyone ever been on the Lisbon to London Pride cruise at the end of April to early May? I am wondering how the weather is at that time of year. Cool is OK but rain can be a problem. Please let me know if you have had any experience in Europe that time of year. Thanks in advance for any information. Merril Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PittsburghJack Posted December 23, 2007 #3 Share Posted December 23, 2007 From my experience, weather in early May in Europe can be "iffy". I'll be in Lisbon in early May and will pack a raincoat.:eek: Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted December 24, 2007 #4 Share Posted December 24, 2007 You may be talking about highs in the 50/60's. Could be rainy or might not be the case. I use the following web site for historical data but always come prepared because weather varies year over year there as it does in most places in the world. http://www.wunderground.com/ Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted December 24, 2007 #5 Share Posted December 24, 2007 I just wanted to add that in my opinion this is a great time of the year to cruise in Europe as it is far less crowded that time of the year then say the summer months. And if you prefer moderate temperatures while in port it's a great time as well. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruisinMatt Posted December 24, 2007 #7 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Bring a rain poncho and a lightweight jacket. Seabourn provides umbrellas and disposible rain ponchos when needed. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TootyJane Posted March 19, 2008 #8 Share Posted March 19, 2008 We were on the Pride (during a most disasterous cruise) last May and weather was definitely cold. We missed a couple of ports due to weather/sea-related issues and a couple of ports due to problems with the ship itself. Definitely bring a raincoat and as others have said, Seabourn does provide umbrellas. HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
