Diamond Princess Departing Singapore 15/04/2012

[russgrae]

Hi, We are leaving on the Diamond Princess from Singapore to Beijing, stopping at Laem Chebang,Ho Chi Minh City, Nha Trang, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Nagasaki, Pusan and finally comleting our cruise in Beijing.

We would like to know where the ship docked in each port, and how people handled the departure from each port to the various highlights. Not that interested in large group tours, and have arranged private guides in Laem Chebang to visit Pattaya, and Shanghai, to visit the city. We also plan to self guide around Nagasarki, Nha Trang and Hong Kong. So far, are our plans a good workable one?. With the other ports, we will just see what happens! In Ho Chi Minh City, we will not get off the ship. We have been there 3 times before, and do not think a 2 hour drive there and back is worthwhile for us. Would be interested in any ideas, and thoughts people who have travelled this route, could advise us. Regards Russell
