^ ay sis, iba ang StarWorld, iba din ang City of Dreams. ang City of Dreams malapit sa Venetian/Holiday Inn/Cotai Sands. Ang StarWorld Casino yun ang malapit sa Wynn.

[SOFIEMAE]

^correct, its located in taipa/cotai then may daan siya going to hardrock... may live poker show everyday ata dun kasi nang magpunta kami meron din tapos iniannounce yung mga poker stars at what time mag start... parang may entrance fee pa nga ata (not sure) nasa gitna ng casino ang PokerStars LIVE, maglalaro ba yung frend mo sis cluelesschx nalibot namin ni hubby casino ng city of dreams kasi hindi kami umabot sa time ng bubble show na gusto namin e tamad na kami mag wait for another 15mins nagikot nalang kami kaso laki ng mga minimum bet nila dun

[Cluelesschx]

^ and ^^
yes magpopoker tournament siya doon, 2200hk$ lang naman buy in (compared sa apt manila on april na 100kpesos buy in!) hindi naman siya magcacash games, tournament lang.

sa macau side ko kasi siya inihahahap ng murang matutuluyan tapos turuan ko na lang siya how to take the shuttle.. ang tanda ko kasi from venetian/hard rock me shuttle papunta macau kahit late na late na....  last year kasi ganun ginawa namin, 10 kami from venetian tumawid (ng super layo) papunta hard rock, sa basement me shuttle free, nung nakatawid na kami macau at nakita ko wynn bumaba na kami hehe mas mura i cab.

Me masusuggest ba kayo na mura lang na matutuluyan, lahat kasi ng nasa agoda at leat 4k pinakamura.

Thank you!

Sana makabalik ako sa Macau ng mag isa lang mas madali siguro mamasyal

Mga sis paano kaya kami pupunta airport from Hotel Sintra na free lang? Hehe.

[rocky]

^anong oras flight nyo sis? kasi kung umaga/hapon may shuttle bus COD sa harap mismo ng sintra. then try nyo baka may shuttle bus COD to airport. kung wala naman, taxi na lang kayo sobrang lapit na non kaya for sure mura lang metro non

[SOFIEMAE]

tama si sis rocky pero sis walang shuttle from COD to airport (sabi ng pinoy na guard na pinagtanungan namin)... kung may time pa kayo pagkababa ninyo ng COD pila agad kayo going to galaxy or venetian dun may papunta shuttle going to the airport kung gusto ninyo talaga ng free hehe other option from sintra hotel took the shuttle from Star World Hotel to Galaxy Hotel

Yes sis, sa terminal..may mga signages ba going there?

[cookiee]

Sis im ok na. Got here na airpprt. What we did is we took the shuttle ng Sintra to Macau ferry. After sakay kami shuttle Venetian. Since the flight is 10pm today nag stroll around kmi ulit for last minute shopping.  Then punta sa Main lobby and fall in line sa Airport shuttle service. They did not asked anything naman. Btw I still have around 1.3K HKD. Selling it for 5.90php/1hkd. Excess kasi namin. More than a 1k usd kasi pinapalit namin.

[u8mypinkcookies]

We booked sa Ole London, sana okay sya Three months from now pa trip namin. Plan namin to spend a day sa HK then balik sa Macau sa gabi.

[rocky]

Yes sis, sa terminal..may mga signages ba going there?

parang wala masyado sis, hehe matatanaw nyo naman sya bandang kanan pag nasa footbridge ka. para syang theme park

pwede rin pala sakay ka ng sands hotel na shuttle, from there tawid ka na lang

[Cari]

Thank you mga sis

[cindylulu]

we will be coming from hk and we will be staying at Sofitel in ponte 16 for 1 night. sisses, may idea ba kayo kung may free shuttle service din ang Sofitel? Tia!

i asked sofitel, they're providing free shuttle from the ferry terminal.

[rhed]

Hi, we're planning to stay at Venetian and get a Bella Suite 4 aduls,, 1 teen and 1 kid. Ok lang ba sneak in sa room yung iba sa amin?

[princess lorraine]

^hi! We have stayed in venetian twice already and as far as i know, they are not that strict with sneak in. 

[rocky]

^^sis rhed, sabi ng friend ko na nasa housekeeping kahit isang katerba kayo wala na silang paki don. hehe! sa laki ba naman ng venetian & daming turista sa buong hotel & casino hindi na nila mamomonitor yon

[rhed]

Thank you princess lorraine and rocky!

Our flight is mnl to macau kasi but I'm dying to go to disneyland!
Day 1: arrival at macau 4:30pm. Check in to a 3  star hotel. Na hopefully kasya kami in one room pa din or two rooms but below 4k each room tour macau sa gabi
Day 2: check out. Go to venetian to do early check in and leave our luggages. Go to ferry for honhkong disneyland. From ferry terminal in HK, mas ok b mag mtr or taxi na lang? Since 4 adults, 1 teen and 1 kid kami. Sa gabi, balik kami ulit to macau. Mtr or taxi?
Day 3: tour macau. 5pm ang flight namin

Another question: 

I saw this website hotelinhongkong.net and mas mura sa kanila bumili online ng disneyland ticket I'm planning to buy there na lang para hindi na kami pumila. I saw their cotaijet + galaxy package http://www.hotelinhongkong.net/macau/ticket/cotaijet_%2B_galaxy_quick_rich_meals_coupon_package#
ok po ba 'to? we can use it naman macau-hk then hk-macau diba? i'm sorry paranoid lang! i have 2 senior citizens and 1 kid kasi sa group    kasi lahat ng nabasa ko reviews  from hk sila then going to macau. Thank you po!

I read the 2 threads of macau and hk already. Info overload but super helpful!

Hello everyone! Spending our Day 2 in Macau. I must say reading and reading threads and tips were very very handy.

We arrived at HK yesterday morning then took the bus to the ferry terminal for Macau. Medyo maalon & good thing I had my gummy worms to chew and the last episode of HIMYM to keep me distracted. Since Sunday, super dami ng tao na kasabay namin sa Cotai Jet and parang palengke. Mabilis lang naman yung sa immigration. We took the shuttle to Hotel Lisboa then naglakad na lang kami to Hotel Sintra where we are staying. They asked for HKD 500 deposit upon arrival. Since di kami pwede mag early check in, we left our bags to look for a place to eat. Hanggang sa nakarating kami sa Senado Square which was supposed to be our IT in the afternoon. Directso lang and Ruins of St Paul na. Went back to check in pahinga. Evening we took the shuttle bus to City of Dreams in front of Sintra. Explored COD, Venetian Macau and Sands.

Day 2: Went to Fisherman's Wharf na walang excitement. Okay lang mag picture ng konti. Then went to Hac Sa Beach and lunch at Fernando's. You can take Bus 25 and some other buses  sa Bus stop E near Lisboa Hotel. Paid 6.40 dahil malayo yung location. Nothing to see sa beach. Beach na madumi.. Hehe

The weather is nice, parang Baguio/Tagaytay so happy si hubby. Walang angal sa lakad. Though Medyo may rain showers. I brought mostly shorts and mukhang di sanay mga tao here. I was thinking kasi na summer na.. Oh well, good thing I still brought a jacket. Though I wished I brought my windbreaker..

We ate the pork chop bun for $18 (hkd) each. Then had egg tarts at Lord Stowe's for $9 each.
