Hi! Sulit ba yung hop on hop off tours? Aling bus ang mairerecommend nyo? Thanks in advance.

Not sulit. Why do this when you can easily just do DIY? Waste of money IMO lang

hi mga sis, mayroon na ba nakapag try sa inyo ng sgmytaxi.com? nakita ko lang sa net and nag enquire ako ng transpo SG airport to johor, marami kasi kami and with kids kaya gusto namin private transfer. 2 Toyota innova ang rate SGD160 pero puwede daw bigay ng SGD150 for 2 Toyota innova. mag book lang daw ako and ang payment cash daw sa driver... okay kaya itong sgmytaxi.com?

Pwede na yang rate na yan Our family friend rented a coach bus binayad nila $200

[mom_c]

^thanks sis, reliable ba ang sgmytaxi.com? medyo hesitant kasi ako baka pag dating namin airport wala yung pina book namin sundo. book online daw tapos sa driver na ang payment.

The SEA Aquarium in Resorts World Sentosa is the largest aquarium in the entire world!
You must visit it.
Sometimes, the queue can be 2-3 hours long, so please purchase your tickets in advance to reduce the waiting time.

Thanks everyone.

How worthy is it to go to the SEA aquarium thinking may Manila Ocean park dito sa manila?

[xtine]

^sis, kung hndi nyo makita yung driver, meron pa rin ground transportation Desk ang Changi.

Pwede rin kayo kumuha dyan ng private transfer to Johor.  Just ask if same rate is applicable pag Johor or different rate.

^^Marami na nag-try nyan. Cheapest and fastest is by bus. Merong straight byahe from SG to KL pero if you want pwede rin magtrain from JB Sentral to KL.

Thank you sis.. How much yung bus? Saka ilang hours yun?

hi!
ask ko lang po if its owrth to visit SG in its Mid Autumn festival? what dates po ito? is it aug 23-sept 26?
what happens po on this festival?
thanks po!

[nestea_dell]

Nice to know!!! Sana dumating na IPA ko this week! 😃

^Sis,  I think sulit ang tourist pass as S$30 lang sha for 3 days and refundable pa ang S$10.  So S$20 lang ang transpo nyo around SG for 3 days which is equivalent to Php700 per person.

*Tourist pass pricing, add S$10 which is refundable when card is returned.
1 Day Pass    = $10   
2 Day Pass    = $16   
3 Day Pass    = $20

BTW, to those who are into Bath and Body works, their shop in Marina Bay sands will open this feb.

engroselle, September 8 I think yung exact date but mga 2 weeks before that, they have mga programs at Chinatown You might want to google Chinatown's website to see their past moon cake festival events to have an idea..

[redmicki_ea]

hi mga sis, tomorrow na kami pupunta ng SG. advisable ba na bumili na lang ako ng singtel sim sa sg may imimeet kasi kami friend sa SG need namin magtext sa kanya. Or ok na yung roaming sim. Mahal yata kasi pag nagreply ako sa kanya using my roaming sim na globe. Thanks!

[engroselle]

^^ thanks sis for the reply. =)
it'll be my 2nd time kung matuloy kami to go to SG. this time with 3 kids. ask ni hubby what mga festivities during aug or sept. para daw sulit. =)
sis sa chinatown lang talaga may happening kapag mid-autumn festival? wala na sa ibang areas?
thanks!

are most of the shops or businesses closed ba on these dates?... 

[bratty]

^^you need to text upon arrival nyo? Sa loob ng airport maraming payphone pero free sya pag local numbers ang tatawagan nyo. Basta di pa kayo nakakalagpas sa immigration counter, mapapansin nyo yun payphones. Baka kasi once nyo lang gagamitin yung sim, sayang naman, mga 8sgd din yun.

[traveldelight]

Good idea! Cable car dinner or Singapore Flyer sky dining are romantic dates best suited for valentines day.

^ sis since you're around sentosa area, you can try mt.faber restos for a romantic vdate but make sure to make reservations

[engroselle]

hi!
i read na meron pong shuttles from SG flyer papuntang Legoland Malaysia. day tour po, need po ba ng visa for this? kasi parang nabasa ko na need ng Malaysian visa...
and is Legoland near Petronas? ;p
thanks!

[bagaholic_chewy]

^ Filipinos don't need visa to go to Malaysia. And sa Johor Bahru ang Legoland, malapit lang sa Singapore. Ang Petronas e sa Kuala Lumpur, mga 4-5hrs away pa from Legoland.

Kaya ba mag Singapore Zoo kung 2:50pm ang flight namin. May magbibigay sa min ng pass kaso sa araw lang ng flight namin pwede gamitin. 8:30AM open ng zoo tapos check-out kami ng 12nn sa hotel sa Bugis then airport na.

[sweetsofia02]

Hi sisses, may nakapag try ba na purchase ng legoland ticket from WTS? kasi meron sila package na coach + legoland. baka mas ok yun. TIA!

[sweetiequeeny]

hello! ask ko lang applicable ba senior citizen rate of Universal studios na S$36 sa foreign tourists like us? I asked travel delight and they said yes. but asiatravel answered no, its only for local residents. kaya naguluhan ako, hope the experts here can answer my question.  Thanks very much.  saka ang sentosa boardwalk, how many minutes of walking up to uss?  kaya ba ng seniors ?  thanks again!

[GirlCrush]

^ang alam ko rin applicable lang sa residents dito Kung sanay sa lakaran ang mga kasama mo na elders kakayanin naman siguro but take note na mga around 1.5KM ang layo nito... May walkalators but if you're not used to walking, I won't advise this kasi kawawa naman yung mga matatanda 

sweetsofia02, that's where we buy our tickets, sa WTS. Okay naman cya

michi247, malabo na masingit ang zoo...

[kayesl]

heads up: SG Haze might come back

[mom_c]
