[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d do phu quoc island in Vietnam in between those city trips. It will be warm and beachy

5 nights in Hong Kong is fine as you’ll take the train to Shen zen and also do a trip to Macau.

Does Shen Zhen do visa on arrival for Americans though? I don’t need a visa for China but my kids will. [/quote]

Yes, visa on arrival. And personally I’d want some beach time in Vietnam between cities [/quote]

Where in Vietnam do you think it would be reliably good beach weather in late December?[/quote]

If you are in Singapore and want to go to a beach in Dec/jan, you should go to Thailand, specifically Phuket, Khao Lak, Krabbi, etc.  They are fabulous, beautiful, great food, safe, etc.  The only drawback is that this is high season, but it is high season for a reason.

I recommend 2-3 nights in Singapore to get your feet under you.  If you aren’t experienced in Asia it is also a great way to start in the shallow end.  Singapore is famous for its food and I highly recommend a food tour.  On a separate evening I recommend trying their chili crab, not cheap, but amazing.

If you do go to Phuket it is an interesting city in its own right and another food tour would be highly justified.  The beaches, diving, etc, are also fantastic.

Bali is another option from Singapore where there are beaches and plenty to see and do, the catch with Bali is a higher chance of food poisoning. You should also take care to get outside of Denpasar/Seminyak and Ubud. [/quote]
