Asian Cruise in April - Weather/temperatures

[BARBYDOLL]

We will be starting in Beijing and visiting Japan, Thailand, S. Korea, Viet Nam, Singapore and Hong Kong. Could anyone tell me what the weather will be like in April, please.

 

I believe we will need some sort of jacket in Beijing and one of our Japanese friends has said that the temperature in Japan in April will be similar to a British summer. Will it be hot and humid at some of the stops? I know the ship will be air-conditioned, but I am thinking of the outside temperatures.

 

Thanks.

If you go to the Princess website, you can get weather averages for the ports you will be visiting.

you're going to have the full range with your itinerary. bejiing will be cooler, early spring weather. the closer to singapore (very close to the equater and always hot) you get the hotter and more humid it will be.

 

plan on packing things you can layer.

Hi,

Vietnam, Thailand and Singapore will be hot and humid especially in the afternoons when there are regular thunderstorms with temperatures in low 30sC. You may need a jumper inside the dining rooms of the cruise ship. Tours usually provide you with cool water and wipes, but take a handkerchief along as well to wipe the sweat. Great places to visit . Enjoy.:)

Thanks for all your replies. It will help with the packing, as we want to reduce what we take this time.
