Singapore (Thread 18)

[CH3]

Just booked at Royal Plaza On Scotts for our December trip. Excited much as this is our first out of the country with my fam. Thanks for all the inputs mga sis.

[yummieyomi]

possible ba na dumeretso sa songs of the sea pag labas ng USS? or ano pa bang attractions within sentosa na pwede mapuntahan after mag USS? gusto ko kasi masulit yung one whole day para hindi na pabalik-balik sa sentosa area. para the next day, ibang lugar naman ang mapuntahan. 

[glacy_rein]

^just got back from sg! Wholeday USS sis kung makatapos kayo agad kaya ang songs of the sea, may cable car din and other attractions sa sentosa there are 19 in total pero some sisses here dont suggest the others kasi panget naman or sayang pera.. Guess you can do the 3D shows etc within sentosa and yung vivo city some shopping!

Regarding your prob pret_ty68 ganyan din prob namen 10am kame dumating pero 1pm check in naghintay nalang kami ng 2hrs. Kelan ba flight mo? By sept 25 kasi isasara ang budget terminal so sa T3 yata malipat mga asian flights so dun may iwanan ng luggage (may bayad i forgot how much) pero i dont suggest kasi ang layo ng changi airport sa mbs. 2lipat ng train yata... Better ask your friend or yeah icheck in mo nalang somwhere na murang inn.

Merlion Park is open too but since may upcoming F1 closed yung mga tawiran find the tunnel underneath kasi kame naikot namen! Haha! Late na namen nakita yung tunnel for short cut but anyway sulit padin naman magpapicture dun pati sa baby merlion!

Had a taste of the wafer ice cream at 1sgd too! I missed the ben&jerry's though kasi ang mahal naman! Lol.

Overall pamatay ang lakaran superrrr and then if by commute i dont suggest na magpagabi kayo lampas 11:30-12:00midnight kasi wala ng train so taxi ang choice eh may late night fee din kaya sayang nasa 7sgd din.. Medyo nakakalito kasi ang bus at may cutoff din if malayo ang makuhang lugar.

Mustafa din kame nagpapalit sgd may nagrecommend na isang sis na ok dun.

[glacy_rein]

Another suggestion if you are a blackberry user and needs to contact relatives from the ph and do internet stuff and bb services avail of the sim card in the airport. I got mine from budget terminal just before going out very helpful 30sgd yata consumable and if mawala ka search mo lang sa website na www.gothere.sg andun na lahat ng instructions via taxi, train, etc.

[rocky]

^sis, ang mahal naman ng sim mo. dati nakabili ako ng singtel sa 7/11 nasa SGD8 lang tapos may load na rin yon na pwedeng pantawag & text apir tayo, fave ko rin yong ben & jerry's sa vivo kaso maharlika nga. hehe

[glacy_rein]

^yan di ko alam. Haha! Consumable naman sis kaya ok lang din kasi nagbb service pako na 15sgd set for 7days.

[katniss]

did you guys avail of the free wifi ng Singtel@SG ba yun? kamusta service nila? kasi as ive read available sya anywhere, kelangan mo lang talaga ng local SG sim, register, tapos pwede ka na kumonek anywhere na me hotspot. kasi ok sana kung makakonek sa wifi anywhere para just in case you get lost eh mag-gothere.sg ka na lang.

[ibarra]

kamusta na jan sa sg? 2 mos din ako nag-bakasyon diyan. nakakamiss din. sayang hindi ako umabot sa birthday ni merlion.

[+aeon_flux+]

mga sis san ba pwede pumwesto during f1? gusto ko sana makakuha ng pics pero di namin afford ang ticket. 

[prettynvain]

ok ba sisses ang strand hotel than sea hotel? i will be paying my family's accomodation eh 9pax sila so affordable hotels lang sana since 4days sila dun.. but i want to pay by credit card and book ko na sana as early as now.. they'll be there Nov. 24.. yung sea hotel parang pay on arrival eh... 2 lang sa kanila ang may credit card kasi puro students pa yung iba and irereserba kasi yun kung sakaling kulangin budget eh..

ok na ba S$2,000 for 6 pax? yung 3 kasi hiwalay budget nila at yung kid nila is 2 years old lang so mga pabili lang ang gastos nun... for S$2,000 transpo and food and others lang except na accomodation and USS ticket (bought online) and yung bayarin sa pinas.. and siguro entrance sa singapore flyer and if zoo or underwater world whichever mapagdesisyunan later.. pero kasama yung pang-souvenir from USS na ang bibili lang naman ata eh yung 2 kids.

i doubt you'll see the cars in action from outside. alam ko fully boarded ang race track at wala talaga mapapanooran walang ticket

hindi naman yata required na may SG sim para maka-wireless@sg.  alam ko kailangan mo lang ng username at password.  baka may friend or kilala ka na may account, makigamit ka na lang.
altho ok din naman meron kang sim dito. in case you are outside na walang wifi, pede ka pa din makatawag or maka-text.

[+aeon_flux+]

^^oo nga sis, kaya di na din namin inisip na mag avail ng ticket, parang di sya worth. sa entrance na lang siguro magtake ng pic, tho mas maganda talaga makakuha ng pic during race.

[Juricks]

booked na my tickets to SG to visit a really good friend of mine.. finally!
sayang nagpatumpik-tumpik pa ako.. mejo tumaas tuloy yung airfare.. sayang yung promo..

alright! salamat. tanong ko yung friend ko kung me account sya.

booked na rin kami sa wakas ng hostel after ilang considerations. we're booked at ABC Hostel 450 M away from Bugis Station, Triple room with ensuite CR, free breakfast and Wifi na. PhP1300/pax/night. we're considering yung Fragrance Hotel Emerald kasi halos 1k per night lang for a triple sharing kaya lang halos 1KM naman from the nearest MRT station tapos wala pang free wifi and breakfast. LOL

pansin ko lang ang hirap maghanap ng hotel/hostel na me triple sharing sa SG.

[glacy_rein]

Kame nag-apartment lang 2,053/pax 4nights na. We're 6. Tulog lang ginawa namen dito and safe naman nga lang malayo sa pasyalan pero ok lang at malapit lang din yung mrt.

[msrain]

kami we stayed at strand hotel. $ 360 per night. we are 8 ( 7 adults and 1 child ). almost 1,800/pax/night. okay na rin kasi may free wifi and breakfast. nearest station is bras basah mrt. mas convenient yung hotel kesa sa sea hotel. medyo lalakarin pa yung sea hotel papuntang bugis mrt. sabi nga sa web nila it's a 6 minute walk. pero yung sa strand hotel to bras basah mrt, is just a 2 minute walk for us.  meron din 7-11 sa tapat where we buy our bottled water kung ayaw namin ng tap water.

maluwag ang room. maraming counter for luggages at malaki ang cabinet. malaking ang floor space kaya hindi kayo magbubungguan kahit madami kayo. yung anak ko nakakatakbo-takbo pa. at may mini sala din sila.

[pinkpotato]

^ bale sis all of you in one room?

ganda nga ng location.

Sis wala ka talaga mapapanood pag nasa labas ka. Kasi nilalagyan nila ng cover yung parts ng track na medyo nadadaanan ng non-ticket holders. The best you can do is watch inside the Esplanade (im not sure what specific area though) through projectors na set up nila and hear the loud engine roars at the same time. The next choice if you really want to take a picture of the racing cars is at least buy 1-day ticket. Friday is the cheapest para my chance ka makapicture during practice time nila. The tickets will be worth it if you're really into F1.

yes sis. may family room sila na good for 7 persons. malaki at spacious room. cheaper kesa kumuha ng multiple rooms. yun nga lang syempre may waiting time sa bathroom. hehe.. pero family naman kami kaya okay lang.
