[crybaby05]

saan ba makakabili ng discounted tickets to Disney and Oceanpark? CTS lang ba?

[Misis_Maku]

Mga sis ano mas okay, bili nako hkd dito, or usd muna tapos sa hk nako magpapalit to hkd?

peso to hkd is okay lang..may recommended akong nagpapalit sa may causeway bay, kase super oks ng rates nya... dun ako nagpapapalit parati,e... hmmmn... exit F (likod ng Sogo) if im not mistaken pag mtr ka, then tawid ka lang...lagpas lang ng onte sa bilihan ng sacchi bags

yehey HK-Macau naman ako for september, back read back read kaylangan ko ng mumurahing hotel.mag mamacau pa kasi kame at 2 lang kame ng officemate ko.
malamig na ba ng september sa HK need ko ba magdala ng makapal ng jacket?baka lang mabigla ako hehe balak ko puero shorts at shirt lang dalahin ko. excited na ako first time ko sa HK

sis cartman,
better check the weather forecast, kase minsan malamig na ang septemeber in HK if matyempuhan mo na maulan. Though, hindi naman yung super lamig, cardigan/ scarf will do, para lang sure kahit naka-shorts ka.

Then, Suggest ko na mag-hostel ka na lang para mas mura or [textspeak!] mga travelers' inns nila; marami sa Tsim Tsa Tsui area, around 300hkd/day [textspeak!] room; since dalawa lang kayo keri na yun and malinis naman yung rooms, tsaka near pa sa shopping areas... as for Macau, meron ding mga youth hostels dun, prep yourself na lang for some basic mandarin para maka-haggle ka ng onte sa presyo, hehe... or if hindi kayo maarte, may bedspace din/ accommodations for backpackers, mas mura yun... if i'm not mistaken mga around 100hkd lang... though never ko pa na-try talaga, nashare lang saken...oks din naman kase you get to meet and share rooms with foreign people.

[rocky]

^yes, yon ang advantage sa mga hostel magkakaroon ka ng instant friend.

saan ba makakabili ng discounted tickets to Disney and Oceanpark? CTS lang ba?

san ba kayo mag-stay sis? kasi sa mga hostel may binibenta din silang discounted tickets

I need help mga sis, 2 days [textspeak!] stay namin sa HK (ngkamali ng booking) and we're planning to spend 1 day sa macau...bale, we' ll arrive in HK at around 7pm then rest, next day plan namin to go to macau..so siguro whole day yun, go back to HK around night.. Day2, di pa kami decided kung san... sa dami ng nabasa kong magagandang tourist spots dito sa GT, can't decide which one... Magkalapit [textspeak!] ba ang Ngong Ping at The Peak?

May nakapagstay naba sa New Hong Kong otel sa inyo mga sis? Any feedback? based sa info, its located at Chung King Manson Nathan road...

[mama squeak!]

^Any place that has Chung King Mansion as its address I would stay clear of.

After reading up the HK threads here,, trying DIY travel arrangements, checking with a long list of travel agency and tour operators, we ended up with a tour package from a reputable travel agency. I dont know if we're allowed to post the name here.   

The price fits our budget, less than 15K, 4D-3N, PAL ang airline, and me city tour. Wala pa lang tickets for Disney and Ocean Park. We're planning to buy from there na, kasi we have senior citizens na kasama, eh cheaper ang tickets supposedly for them. If we buy from the agency kasi, uniform rates regardless of age. We have to arrange our own transpo nga lang. Sana di kami mahirapan.

Any feedback mga sis about Sky 100?

[kidsrepublik]

Thanks thelittlered,

Sana pwede for 8 adults and 3 kids, ang dami nameng baggage, sana Hindi malito yung receptionist.
Medco OT lang, Ano bang makikita sa Macau na mageenjoy ang kids? Pinagiisipan ko kasi kung pwede pang isingit.

Day 1
10am arrival to HK
Lunch and rest after arriving the hotel
4pm Go to The Peak

Day 2
Disney

Day 3
OceanAdventure

Day 4
Pending pa, indiscipline ko - Mongkok shopping samorning then Science Museum in the afternoon
OR
Macau balikan. May nakita akong discount sa groupon HK sa Star Ferry

Day 5
Nan Lian garden
7pm Depart from HK

Ok na ang Macau? Mageenjoy ba ang kids kapalit sa Science Museum?

[rocky]

^wala masyado sis, more on adults ang mag-eenjoy don dahil sa mga casino

May nakapagstay naba sa New Hong Kong otel sa inyo mga sis? Any feedback? based sa info, its located at Chung King Manson Nathan road...

sis, scary ang paligid ng chung king mansion

[mama squeak!]

^baka maconfuse si ilovepink so claruhin ko lang ha. Yung paligid/area is okay since nasa Nathan road sya and busy palagi sa area na yan. But the building itself ang hindi maganda bukod sa luma marami ring mga less than likeable characters na tumatambay dyan.

[crybaby05]

any feedback on Mirador Mansion? sabi kasi nila parang Chung king din daw to. Kaso may mga nakita naman akong taga GT na nagcheck-in at cosmic guesthouse. okay kaya?

[diwata]

1 whole day for Disneyland is enough.

[prettynvain]

^Any place that has Chung King Mansion as its address I would stay clear of.

totally agree!

[_ilovepink_]
