Hong Kong guide (Thread 27)

[anika08]

Sis, I am planning to go to Ladies Night for our pasalubong sana. What do they have in Causeway Bar?  Baka dun na lang ako mamili kasi we are staying in Aberdeen? Mura lang din ba dun? Can I also buy pasalubong there so we won't go to Mongkok anymore. Thanks

Sorry sis, ngayon lang ako nakapag gtalk ulit. Sa causeway mall din. If pasalubong shopping, just buy from tst bangketa. Marami ring stores dun na may mga souvenir items. Namili kami sa baba lang ng Mirador Mansion. Para sa clothes shopping, sa citygate talaga bongga. Kasi mas mura sya ng mga 500+ compared sa prices dito sa tin.

sis onefineapril mukhang masisingit nga namin yung symphony of lights sa day 1. Thank U

out of way ba sis rocky yung lian garden? we're thinking of replacing the ngong ping with that? or mas okay ang ngong ping?

eischied_21 roughly sis 20k we're 2 adults and 2 tots

[rocky]

^out of way sis, sa kabilang side yon eh. ok na yong itinerary mo na ngong ping & disneyland kasi nasa isang area talaga sila.

bitin lang talaga stay nyo sis kaya hindi na pwedeng dagdagan IT kasi sobrang ngarag na

[prepster]

mga sis, magbu-book ako ng ticket from clark to hk. ask ko lang kung saang window side mas maganda ang view pag landing, sa left or right side?

^i'm a big fan of airbnb but I use it mostly for my Euro trips since the prices of hotels there are expensive. You just have to check the reviews of the landlords to make sure legit sila. The more good reviews the better and safer. You can also send a private message to the reviewers just to double check on the reviews they did.

hey thanks! Naka-pagbook na kami sa airbnb for 4 persons.. 7 days for 25k. Malapit sa olympic MTR station.

[cherdigan]

^hi sis, san kayo dun banda? we stayed near Olympic Station din, sa may Cosmo Hotel Mongkok kami maganda yung Olympian City 2, 3 mall nila dun, nakakabit na sa MTR saka malapit sha lalo na kung punta ka ng Disney at Ngong Ping

[scents01]

You're welcome sis! :-) have you checked the website already? Nandun yung rates nila. :-)

Yes sis, i just checked..need pala ng credit card to book, sayang debit card lang meron ako..

Baka may alam kayo mga sis na pwedeng gumamit ng debit card or cash on the day itself para makapagreserve?tia!

[onefineapril]

^have you tried Paypal sis?

nung nag-book ako sa Cosmic Guesthouse, Paypal ang gamit ko.  Debit Card ang naka-enrol sa Paypal ko not CC.

[scents01]

^hindi ako marunong gumamit ng paypal sis huhu

Malaki ba additional charge sis kapag paypal ginamit instead of cc?

[onefineapril]

login ka lang sa Paypal then enroll mo yung DC mo... walang charge..

^yong nan lian malayo sa citygate. dapat sama mo yong citygate sa ngong ping & disneyland kasi nasa isang area lang yon sis.

last day, pwede pa kayong mag-ocean park since midnight pa flight nyo.

[khakitin]

kaya ba ng halfday lang ang Disneyland? maeenjoy ko kaya un?

can you help me compare Disneyland to Universal Studios in SG? magkasinglaki ba sila? sa USS kasi we spent the whole day para enjoy talaga. TIA! 

[bubblepop]

.,tanong ko lang sa mga sis na pabalik balik na sa hongkong magkano nagagastos niyo lahat lahat everytime na pumupunta kayo sa HK at nung first time nyo bang pumunta eh kumuha pa ba kayo ng tourist guide(sorry for the ignorance) and ano mas mura airfare? gusto ko sanang dalhin mama ko for her 60th birthday matagal tagal pa naman,at bakit yung iba nakakapunta sa macau sumasakay sila boat ba yun.

sobrang ma aapreciate ko reply nyo mga sis backread muna ako.,thank you

[rocky]

^sis, usually 30k lahat nagagastos ko kasama na airfare (promo), hotel, food, airport tax & terminal fee, entrance & activities, transpo, overnight sa macau saka konting pasalubong. lahat yon DIY lang, basta research ka lang, backread dito sa thread & map. syempre wag ka ring mahihiyang magtanong pagdating don kesa naman maligaw ka. yes, ferry lang papuntang macau & much better kung manila-macau ang plane ticket mo papunta then hk-manila yong pabalik para hindi ka pabalik-balik

^^sis khakitin, dapat whole day. di pa ako nakakapag-USS pero nakita ko na sya. mas malaki disneyland & super enjoy ako kasi magaganda yong show, parade & fireworks.

Hi sis!

Sa tai kok tsui kami nagbook. Maganda naman yung mga reviews nya. Nakita ko din halos fully booked na yung apt.

sa USS... kung sasakyan mo lahat ng rides... at papasukin mo lahat ng attractions... at susuyurin mo lahat ng stores, definitely kailangan mo ng whole day... (10AM - 7PM) to think na until 7pm lang sila...

sa disneyland, kahit siguro lunchtime (12NN), pwede kang mag-start... kasi hindi ganun karami ang rides compared sa USS... kaya lang mas maraming pa-picture with the chars... kung aabangan mo ang fireworks, until 8PM ka dun... so I think 12NN - 8PM, enough na to explore Disney... but halfday? I don't think so

[gab54]

^in my experience. kulang ang half day sa disneyland if may mga bata kang kasama. usually the kids want to ride all the rides, watch all shows, take pix w. the characters, watch the parade & fireworks.

[cherdigan]

^we were there on a Saturday sa Disneyland, akala ko din tama na ang half day kasi 2 yr old lang naman anak ko baka di pa nya magustuhan, pero grabe kulang pala talaga plus if you go there past noon or noon time, mainit and mahaba pila sa mga rides.  We were just in time for the grand parade (May 12) then nakapasyal lang kami sa fantasyland and tomorrowland and rode the disney train  then mag-gagabi na so we opted to rest and wait for the fireworks. di na tuloy namin napunthan yung ibang attractions so mas better po mag-whole day.  Pero kung half day lang talaga kaya, ok pa din basta paabutin nyo na til fireworks para sulit
