[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would choose Japan or New Zealand over Singapore. New Zealand would probably be my top choice.

Switzerland - Dolomites - Italian city (Milan or Venice) would be a fun and easy trip logistically.

Have you been to Portugal? That would also be a great 2 week trip. Porto, Lisbon, some smaller towns (Evora), Comporta, etc. [/quote]

OP here. Italian cuisine would certainly be popular with our 10yo! We haven’t been to Portugal, but DH has suggested it in the past. Is train travel possible, or is driving needed? (Looking on my own now, too!)

Why NZ as your top choice…and which island? (Thank you!!)[/quote]

For Portugal, I would rent a car. You can train from Lisbon to Porto, but I don't know about the smaller towns. We drove and spent about 2 ish weeks when my kids were younger and it was nice stopping in different places. We stayed in the Douro Valley, Lisbon, and Comporta. I've also heard amazing things about São Lourenço do Barrocal. In the summer I would stay away from the Algarve.

New Zealand only because I've never been and getting there from the East Coast feels really hard. 10 also feels like a great age for both the cities and the outdoorsy stuff you can do. [/quote]
