Mga sis, marami ding bang halal food sa Jalan Alor? Parang ansarap kasi magtry ng street food. Tsaka mga magkano kaya ang price range per meal para lang may idea kami sa budgeting. Thank you ulit.

[phurple0515]

^The price range is from Rm5 to less than RM20 pinakamahal.

[icegayle]

Thanks sis. Additional question, we are travelling with 2 seniors, my husband and my 10month old baby. Balak kasi namin within KL lang sightseeing since 3d/2n lang naman. Can you suggest kung ano ang mode of transport na pwede at madaling gamitin, ok ba ang HOHO or we can use train na lang. And kung mag Genting naman kami much better ba magtaxi na lang kami. Gusto lang namin matry yun cable car, san ba makakabili ng ticket? Madali lang din ba magikot ikot around the tourist spot ng KL? First time kasi magtravel ni baby kaya medyo worried ako. And also mura din ba ang seafoods don. THank you

[greenarrowbabe]

mga sis, may lockers for rent ba sa KL Sentral? (nasagot na pala ito.  I hope ganun pa din ang price RM10-15)


Kaya ba mag 1 day lang sa Georgetown, Penang? Balak kasi namin since 6PM dating namin KK, by midnight en route na kami via bus sa Penang. Sa mga nakapunta na dun, worth it ba yung travel?  5 hours din kasi yun. safe ba yung mga bus dun or magtravel during mignight?

thanks in advance. appreciate it! 

[phurple0515]

^^ hi sis, if you want to go from one tourist spot to the next, considering na me senior kayong kasama, mas ok na to take HOHO bus.  Madaling mag-commute by train (and mas mura) pero maraming lakad involved kasi.  seafood here is cheaper than Pinas I would say. 

^ yes sis, me lockers sa KL sentral.  I would say nothing much to see in Georgetown pero andon mga masasarap na local foods

[icegayle]

^thank you sis.

[phurple0515]

Any must try restaurants in KL? I'll be there second week of September

May nakapagtry na ba to avail coupons from Groupon MY or other group buying sites? I'm interested at a couple of deals like the ones for atmosphere 360, aquaria klcc, buffet at hotels, not sure which are worth the time and money though. Feedback please?

I'm a bit worried already because I still don't have a solid itinerary and budget sheet. Medyo OC ako with details so medyo panic mode na haha.

Saan mas okay pumunta, Genting Highlands or Cameron Highlands?

Thanks!

[phurple0515]

^ yes, whenever me mga buffet deals sa hotels I grab them, hehe.  I love Hotel Istana's deals.  The deal for Aquaria usually kasi is for MyKad holders (locals).  Maganda din daw sa Atmosphere 360.

I would prefer Cameron over Genting ngayon.  Pero mas accessible kasi ang Genting pag galing ng KL.  More of casino kasi sa genting and the theme parks.  Sa cameron, dapat me car din pag gusto mo gumala around the area, unless me tour ka na kinuha or if you just want to stay sa hotel.

[icegayle]

Sis madami din bang travel and tours na nagoofer along Bukit Bintang like city tour at papuntang genting highlands. We are planning to stay at Myhotel or Skyhotel. Baka kasi yun na lang din gawin namin isang option since may Senior at baby kaming kasama.

[phurple0515]

^ oo sis, malapit na rin sa Bukit Bintang ang office ng Genting.  Sa tapat lang siya ng Raja Chulan station ng monorail.  nasa isang building siya kasama ng Maybank and CIMB bank.  Me sales office din sila don.  Or sa may Time square, sa may queue ng taxi, me travel office don.

[icegayle]

^thank you sis.

[icegayle]

Sis nagcheck kasi ako ng website ng HOHO. In case we book in My hotel or Sky hotel, anong station number malapit, wala kasi sa website nila ang Myhotel or sky hotel.  And in case pabalik na kmi ng hotel, gano katagal kaya ang waiting namin or interval timings nila pabalik. TIA

[phurple0515]

^ sis, pwede ka sa may Bukit Bintang, tapat ng Pavilion mall.
