Following the news in which Costa Cruises and the Juventus football team announce that they have come together to launch their Italy at Sea proposal, I want to give you some advice on what you should do or prepare if you want to cruise through Asia. This makes sense because this program, Italy at Sea, between Juventus and Costa Cruises is a themed cruise set in the Italian squad that will take a tour precisely along the Asian coasts. So now you know if football is your thing, and more specifically Italian calcium, and you are also passionate about Asia, do not miss the opportunity.
To start with these tips, there is a basic question and that is that the Asian coasts are many and all different, so although I speak here in general terms, keep in mind that It is not the same to visit traditional China to more advanced Japan, or to navigate the landscapes of Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia ...not to mention a river tour of Vietnam. By the way, if you want a highly recommended itinerary through the latter country, I would read this article.
Almost any time is fine to travel to Asia, since the temperature is good throughout the year, but without a doubt, the best is during the months of November and December.
With the theme of vaccines will be mandatory that you take the yellow fever, and also those of hepatitis A and B, tenanos-diphtheria, typhoid fever, polio and meningitis are recommended.
As for visas, that will depend on your nationality, but In general, the countries that do not require a Visa (but look at the exceptions) are Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines and Hong Kong, Macao. You already know that all these issues must be solved before embarking, if you want to go down to port and move around the cities or go on excursions during your stopovers.
And if you have any questions, I recommend that you ask and consult with your travel agency, they will be the ones to inform you in detail.
