Stop overs in Hong Kong + Singapore....where to stay? What to do?
In early 2017, I am going on the Portrait of India tour by way of Hong Kong and Singapore. I have my 3 days in Hong Kong tentatively organized with things/places I never got to on my previous trip to HK-- The Peak, the Star Ferry, Lamma Island for hiking and dinner and Shenzhem (yes, I know I need a visa). Any thoughts about going to Macau - the casinos hold no interest to me...anything else?? I have my Hong Kong hotel arranged-The Mira Hotel.
Singapore is a complete unknown to me. I will have 2 days there. I think I want to visit the Botanic Gardens, take a skywalk, take a food tour, have a Singapore Sling at Raffles...any other thoughts and recommendations? And where to stay? Raffles is too pricy. I stayed at Raffles hotels in Cambodia and loved them. I will hold off on super fabulous hotels until the Tauck trip begins in India! But I want great location and a lovely upscale hotel.
