  1. Dear all

     

    Advices to date on here have been very useful, thanks to all.

     

    Where does Seadream dock in Singapore? And where is a good place to stay closely perhaps with transport to the airport?

     

    Happy sailing/surfing on the 'net !!!

  2. Thanks.

     

    Seadream goes from HKG to Ha Long Bay, Near to Hanoi, Da Lang, Na Trang, Ho Chi Minh City, Dao Tao Island and Singapore. All for docks except for the Island.

     

    The other Seadream trip is from Singapore, Langkawi, Phuket, Port Blair, Colombo, Cochin, Goa and Mumbai. Langkawi is also an anchor-and-tender access point.

     

    I think Dad would be fine to miss all the land adventures and enjoy the view from the deck. After all its just 13 days. He has seen nearly every world icon since 1962 so no need for on ship entertainment nor my friends.

     

    The bigger ships apparently have ramps etc but I think Seadream has more personal service.

     

    Vietnam has more dramatic scenery from the sea view perhaps but may appeal more to me as a solo traveller with the food trekking etc. My greatest concern is the temperatures in India.

  3. Thanks.

    Dad is an unusual 95yo. He finished working full time as a grazier driving bulldozers and fencing l5 months ago after a bad fall.

    Now he is walks on my arm for any distance and we scoot around in a wheelie walker in the city. He still gets in and out of a 4WD to go to the property and is lots of work for me whether here at home or away. He was fit and able to get to Russia in 2011 as an avid traveller, hence his desire to go on a cruise.

    The food seemed better on a smaller ship and the entertainment is not our thing. With a smaller ship I thought had smaller distances to walk and more personal assistance. I thought from the ship layout an elevator took you everywhere other than the top deck bar.

    Am I really crazy to go on Seadream?

    Any help is appreciated by me.

  4. Hello.

     

    First time cruisers are intending to go on a Seadream cruise from either Hong Kong to Singapore via Vietnam in March 2014 or from Singapore to Mumbai in April 2014.

     

    With my elderly father, which is better?

     

    Few people seemed to have cruised to both.
