Sis phurple0515, 12midnight kasi ang arrival namin sa KL. What can you suggest sis? First plan namin is magstay na lang kami ng airport until morning, then punta na kami ng SG via train or bus. But then naisip ko sayang ang araw kung sa travel lang mapunta. So plan ko na gumala na lang muna kami sa KL sa day tapos sa gabi, magovernight trip (train) kami to SG para kinabukasan andun na kami and nakatipid pa kami ng accomodation. Ok kaya ganitong set-up?

Sis, do you know if may locker sa KL na pwedeng iwan ng mga gamit (1 luggage and 1 backpack) while gumagala kami during the day? Nabanggit din ng isang sis dito na may shower room sa KL sentral, so pwedeng dun na kami maligo right? Para hindi na kami magrent pa ng hotel... Thanks sis=)

^^ i'll answer some questions based on our recent experience. For me, mas advisable mag overnight train from KL to SG para makatipid ng hotel accomodation at the same time, hindi sayang yung oras sa travel. Mga 7-8 hours ang byahe.

Re locker, yes, may nare-rent na locker sa KL Sentral, may 10MRY, 15 at 20. We only got the 10MRY one and kumasya ang 1 backpack at 2 bags namin na regular size lang. Locker is good for use ng 8 hours pero per "opening" ang charging nila,meaning pag nai-lock mo na then may nakalimutan ka at bubuksan mo uli, that's another payment kasi parang token ang ihuhulog dun sa locker para mag lock.

Sa pag book ng train ticket, I suggest you also book in advance, 3 weeks ahead ko binili yng ticket namin althou may nakita ako na bumibili sa station but why take the risk di ba? The earlier, the better at makakapili ka pang preferred seats nyo..:)

And yes, may shower room sa KL sentral na pwedeng liguan for a fee, may toilet inside pero yung squat style lang. If kailangan nyo gumamit ng toilet and hindi carry yung squat, may pay restroom din dun for 40 cents lang, malinis, mabango at private talaga, hehe.

Hope this helps..:)

Thanks sis tammy. Paano ka pala nagbook ng ticket? Meron ka bang link ng website sis? Kasi nung nagcheck ako sa KTM, isang schedule lang meron eh. walang overnight trip.

Sa phils ka ba nakabased sis? Paano ka nagpay ng ticket, through credit card? Malaki ba ang charge nun, kasi di ba foreign currency yung ipupurchase na tickets. Thanks po...

sis, I'm based in the Phils and yes I booked the tikets online. Baka mali lang yng station na napili mo and yung name ng Train si Senandung Sutera, yan ang overnight train nila. Gumawa ako ng online account jan, not sure lang kung pwede as guest lang pero I think pwede, eto yung link https://intranet.ktmb.com.my/e-ticket/FastBooking.aspx?ExOrigin=19100&ExDestination=37600&ExDestinationTxt=WOODLANDS%20CIQ&ExTarikh=31-Jul-2013&DateTemp=2128

mock booking lang yan, you have to choose SENTRAL KUALA LUMPUR to Woodlands SG para mabilis, pero if you're coming from SG, I would suggest na you come from JB Sentral para yung currency is in MYR, if you come from Woodlands SG, fare would be the same denomination but in SGD so ang laki ng babayaran pag nagkataon. So kami, nag bus kami from Woodlands to Johor Bahru and dun na kami nag train to KL Sentral, but from KL Sentral, ok lang mag derecho Woodlands SG since currency is in MYR.

I paid using credit card, when I checked my bill today, hindi naman ganun kalaki ang charge, I think depende sa credit card company. Citibank only charged me with the fare converted in PHP, at that time 1MYR= 14.15 PHP, better check with your bank if they will charge you extra.

I hope wala ako na-miss sa question mo, hehe..

dahil nahirapan ko magbook ng P1 sale sa SG nag KL na lang ko. =). nagcheck ko ng KL to SG via air asia, P600+ yung base fare, mas ok na ba yung price na yun kaysa sa train or bus?

^thanks sis! =)

5PM ang touchdown (Day 1). ok na ba kung overnight lang ang KL? petronas lang naman gusto ko puntahan pero baka may malapit pa na pwede idagdag para 1 whole day nakapagstay naman ko sa KL. day 3 na lang punta SG.

mahaba-habang back read sa thread 8 ito.

yung legoland malaysia johor bahru yung location di ba. kasi may nakita ko na direct flight ng kl to johor bahru via air asia. naisip ko kasi yun na lang book ko para diretso dun. then from johor bahru to SG na lang. (bus)

Petronas, Legoland and USS pa lang naman ang iti ko.

michi247 - if Legoland, yes much better na dun ka sa Johor Bahru saka ka na mag SG, and you can do that after the Legoland, kahit gabi na pwede ka pa magbyahe.

hanshellite - di ko alam kung saan airport ka, pero kami sa LCCT and parang nakita ko na may shower room sila, altho di ako ganun ka sure, ha? nakita ko lang nung naghahanap ako ng makakainan, yung isang restroom malapit sa papuntang KFC dun ko nakita yung may shower room na arrow. If sa KLIA, hindi ko alam kasi ni hindi ko nakita yung airport na yun, hehe..

^thanks sis! legoland lang naman gusto ko puntahan. hindi ba mahirap from airport to legoland ang biyahe? and from legoland to SG? wala kasi ko plan magstay sa johor. I hope may locker na mapag-iwanan sa legoland para sa luggage.

naghahanap ko ko ng info ng biyahe. puro SG to legoland nakikita ko at iba-iba info, may JB at may Woodland Hills ako nababasa, nalilito ko ng sobra.

^^ di ganon kaganda sis...if you want nice beaches here, it should be in those islands na di masyado napupuntahan like pulau redang or pulau tioman. 

^ sis, if airport ka lang, ubos na 2hrs mo (or more depende sa traffic) to travel papunta ng city mismo.  so, either sa airport ka lang talaga, or kung gusto mong 2hrs is spent na sa byahe, madalian na lang talaga ang pasyal mo sa city mismo, like to see Petronas and KL tower...sa KLIA ka ba sis or LCCT? pag KLIA ka me express train to KL don (KLIA train). pag LCCT bus ka talaga or shuttle to KLIA train station.

^ you can try Sky Hotel sis, the one in Bukit Bintang which I often suggest din to other sisses here.

sis, sa site ka ba mismo ng Sky Hotel nagbobook?  I find their rates sa site nila mas mura (168MYR) over Asia Rooms rate (320MYR) per night.  tia!

natapos na ko magbackread. questions lang.

1. Ganu katagal ang biyahe from LCCT to Bukit Bintang. Plan ko din magstay sa Sky Hotel. How much abutin ng taxi or ok lang na magbus kami from LCCT?

or much better sa Tune Hotel na lang kami magstay malapit sa LCCT kung may flight din kami papunta JB (3rd day). Isip ko lang kung ano magagawa ng first day kung dun magstay. May malls ba?

2. Ito yung gusto ko puntahan for one whole day.

Batu Caves, Thean Hou Temple, Little India Brickfields, Merdera Square, Istana Negara, National Monument, National Mosque, Petronas Tower and Menara KL Tower. 

Hindi ba mahirap puntahan kung commute lang kami. May nakita ko na package, RM80 per person. Since 3 kami RM240, not sure kung san ko makakamura. Hindi ko kasi din alam pagkakasunod-sunod. Natakot naman kasi ko sa nabasa ko na di ok driver sa KL baka tagain kami sa presyo. 5 year old yung anak ko sa time ng travel.

3. May downpayment ba sa Sky Hotel, once nagbook.

Sis, sa sky hotel website, may dp na 10%... dun sa AsiaRooms no dp required.

when travel nyo sis?  kami next year pa (March).. I am also looking into the option na check in muna sa Tune hotel Airport since 1230AM na yung dating namin sa LCCT and sa morning nalng pupunta sa Sky hotel.  we have a 4 yr old kid na kasama din kasi.  based on backread dito, mga 1 hour yung byahe from airport to bukit bintang tapos add pa ng 50% from the metered taxi fare between midnight until 6am.

Hi sis phurple, yung beaches ba na namention mo, i.e., pulau redang and pulau tioman, gaano kalayo sa KL yun? advisable bang magbeach kami ng 1 day? balikan lang to KL?

Maganda ba beaches ng malaysia, comparable to our beautiful beaches here sa pinas? Thanks...
