^^sis try ninyo yung ding-ding  ito sinasakyan namin para makaiwas sa mahabang lakaran. nung una nakakalito and lumampas pa nga kami ng station. some stations kasi sobrang ikli lang ng pagitan. buti nalang nung lumampas kami e isang block lang yung layo so konting lakad lang pabalik. even daughter ko enjoy riding specially during night time. kapag medyo d niyo pa kabisado sa baba lang muna para mabilis makababa hehe pero kapag sanay na sa upper deck kayo mas maganda and mahangin.

Hi sisses! I've been lurking here for quite a while and this is my first query.

We are going to HK next week (4D3N) and out first stop is to go to Macau (we are booked on the 1st night). What ferry terminal should we use and what is the best transpo method to go there? The one in Sheung Wan or the one near Mongkok? Group of 6 po kami with 1 kid and 1 senior. Bus? Train? Taxi?

Thank you so much!

^sis, depende kung saang side ng HK kayo mag-stay

sis minaco_aino, yes nasa isang lugar lang yan

[minaco_aino]

^thanks sis rocky. 

Another one. Please pardon my ignorance and if this question is paulit-ulit on this thread. About the NP360, kung 1-way ticket lang ang bibilin ko, bago kami sumakay ng cable car, dapat puntahan muna namin yung Ngong Ping Village and The giant Buddha? Tapos pabalik magbus na lang kami papunta Citygate/Mongkok.

Or maground trip na lang kami since yan din yung last day namin? After nung NP punta kami Citygate/Mongkok bago HKIA. 9:55PM ETD HKIA.

question ko mga sis. saan ba ok mag stay sa tsim sha tsui o sa causeway bay? i prefer tst kasi nakapag stay nako dun twice. but i haven't really gone to causeway bay. budget lang kame and ang alam ko expensive sa area na yun diba or same lang? can you also suggest a budget hotel na ok for triple sharing 3 adult female kame.

[minaco_aino]

^sis, well recommended ang Golden Crown sa TST. I'm trying to book with them pero sabi sa email nila 4 - 3 months pa pwede from your travel dates.

Sis seven82, do you mean the tram? Ittry namin yan pag nagpunta kami sa Mongkok. Pero dun sa ladies market kasi, gusto ko sana bus lang from chungking. Hindi ko alam anong bus # eh. Along nathan road lang kasi eh super haba ng nathan diba?  Wala naman akong nakitang tram along nathan. Buses and taxis lang

sis, kelangan mo munang sumakay ng cable car or bus from tung chung station para makapunta ka ng giant buddha. mas ok na roundtrip cable car sakyan nyo kasi zigzag ang bus. saka sa citygate na lang kayo pumunta pagbalik galing giant buddha kasi yon ang pinakamalapit. wag na kayong mag-mongkok ang layo non.

[minaco_aino]

Okay sis (parang) gets ko na. 

1 way: From Tung Chung MTR Station sakay kami Bus 23 papunta Giant Buddha. Tapos from there dun kami sasakay ng NP Cable Car pabalik Tung Chung.

RT: From Tung Chung Station, go to B Exit and find the Cable Car Station to take Ngong Ping Cable car. Then, pagbaba mo nandun ang Giant Buddha and Ngong Ping Village. After visiting those 2, sakay ka ulit cable car pabalik.

Tama ba?

Going to HK in January, was wondering if the ff itinerary is doable (mali pala kasi nabook ko, only 3 days pero same day ang flight, earliest and latest):

Day 1
PM (ETA at HK is 8AM so I assume latest is 1PM we get to our hotel) - either Ngong Ping or The Peak (need to visit Wax Musem), then at night go to the night market

Day 2
Whole day Disneyland

Day 3
AM - either either Ngong Ping or The Peak + Wax Musem then go back to hotel to check-out (wala pang hotel) and HKIA to catch 9:55PM flight (have to be at the airport by 6:30PM).

Need advise on Day 1 and 3.

TIA!

^^sis minaco_aino, tama

[gemwin21]

How to go about going to macau ferry terminal in hkia?
I read somewhere na hindi mo na daw kailangan i claim yung luggage mo sa hkia sa macau mo na daw i claim? Is it true?
