Singapore (Thread 20)

[Grayce]

Yes.  Kaya sha if 5 days in SG and 1 day in KL.  Chinatown, Ikea and the museums are two hours max each.

Parang pagod pagod naman if may KL pa on the side tapos JB for Legoland etc

[xtine]

Question:
1. From Dhoby Ghaut, best way to get to USS and MBS/Merlion/gardens of the bay? Ok nba un singapore pass namin going to those places?

2. What is the nearest mall or name of mall na may H&M, Zara, MAC At sephora here sa orchard rd.?

^^Sis, 

1.  Always use www.gothere.sg .  Pero to answer your question, from Douby Ghaut, go to Yellow line "Bayfront" Station.  This is the station shared by Marina bay sands hotel and Gardens by the Bay.
2.  Somerset Stn MRT is also along Orchard road.  This is nearest to H&M and 313 Somerset mall which has Zara.  Sephora is on Takashimaya which is walkable from 313 Somerset. 

Placement of Malls in Orchard (Right side)
Orchard Central --> 313 Somerset (Somerset MRT station)--> H&M Building --> Mandarin Gallery --> TAKASHIMAYA --> Isetan --> ION orchard (Orchard MRT station).

So from 313 Somerset, there's two building before Takashimaya.

Yes sis, as mentioned, its doable but its not going to be a comfortable one.

If I may, I agree kaya siya in 6 days. Kami 5 days kaya naman.

2 days sa KL.

Day 1 Arrived at 4pm. Petronas kaagad tapos shopping along Bukit Bintang
Day 2 Genting, Berryls, etc., di na namin pinuntahan Batu Cave kasi holiday nun ang daming tao for some reasons sa Batu Cave)

Flight to SG ng 4am. Dating namin around 6am ata. Can't remember.

Day 1 Check in. USS. 5pm umalis na kami kasi 2nd time na rin namin yun. Chinatown.
Day 2 Johor Bahru. Legoland, etc. After balik SG, Orchard & Mustafa.
Day 3 Yung mga tito ko nagcity tour for half day (Merlion, etc tourist spots). Kami hindi na. Nasa Orchard lang kami all the time. Pagbalik nila nag-Marina Bay Sands na kami Helix Bridge, etc. Tapos Sim Lim (WHICH I DO NOT RECOMMEND GRR)

Tapos diretso na Airport since flight namin 12am.

[kayesl]

[travelling_daisy]

Hi sisses!

Ask ko lang po if may naka-try na sa inyo na mag bus from Johor Bahru to Singapore using the causeway Link Bus. We'll be staying kase in JB after KL for Legoland and Hello Kitty then we'll proceed to SG. Flight namin to Manila is from SG.

My question is about the immigration procedure. From our hotel in JB, we'll go to JB CIQ 2nd link via taxi. Then we'll take the Causewaylink bus (CW3 or 4) to Jurong East Interchange. Pagdaan po ba ng Singapore Immigration, we have to go down the bus and bring our luggage with us and ride the bus again after clearance from immigration? From Jurong East, we'll ride train na to Dhobhy Ghaut Station. We'll be staying po at Strand Hotel sa SG.

Hope someone can comment or share input po about the immigration procedure I described above. Tama po ba?

Thanks in advance.

[bagaholic_chewy]

^ hi sis! Na-try ko na. Yup, kelangan mo ibaba lahat ng things nyo from the bus..

[travelling_daisy]

^Noted, sis. By the way, did you book your tickets online po? Or on the spot na? And aling CW bus yung nasakyan mo sis? Mas madali ba sa Jurong or sa Kranji?

Thanks!

[bagaholic_chewy]

Dun na ako bumili ng tickets sis. Bale ginawa ko kasi SG-JB-SG balikan lang. Madami naman sila buses so ok lang. Ang sinakyan ko yung papuntang Queen St. (CW1 yata yun...?) kasi yun ang pinakamalapit sa pinag-stayhan ko.

[travelling_daisy]

Ah ok sis. Actually, malapit na din yung Queen St. sa Strand Hotel. Sa Bencoolen kase yung hotel di ba? Pwede yun na din sakyan namin siguro. San sa Queen Street sya bale? The last time we stayed there, nilakad lang namin yung church sa Queen Street from our hotel. Inisip ko kase nung una, either Kranji or yung sa Jurong ang baba ang kunin namin para mag MRT kami to Strand, yung circle line kase malapit yung Bras Basah station sa strand hotel.

[bagaholic_chewy]

Sis, i checked google maps.. Ito ang lumabas..

http://maps.google.com.ph/maps?q=queen+street+singapore+bus+terminal&cid=0,0,15858999292427082762&sa=X&ei=E-wUUZnNO-GPiAesh4CgBA&ved=0CDoQ_BIwAw#bmb=1

Parang malapit-lapit na rin. If i were you, sa Queen St. bus na lang kayo. Then walk or taxi to your hotel. Mas efficient sa time, plus less pagod pa kesa mag-mrt pa kayo.. If ako yan ha..

[neneng_bee]

sis neneng_bee ...kaya naman since may kasama kayo kids sis hndi sila pwede sa mga backpacker's style kasi pang adults lang yun, so possible siguro na pwede niyo pag pilian is YMCA (@Orchard) or South East Asia Hotel (@Bugis, more on a pension style) , and meron pa siguro ma-aadd ang mga sis naten na meron den kasamang kids sa tour... nung kame sa SEA kame nag stay nasa area ito ng Bugis kaya malapit sa lahat...

Magkano ba ang per night sa mga nabanggit mo? may kamahalan ba ito?
