Singapore (Thread 25)

[sneezes]

^Hi Sis, pwede matanong when in Aug ang punta nyo?
Holiday ang Aug 7 and 10 since National Day so long weekend ito, expect traffic papuntang KL since madaming uuwi.

Nung pumunta ang family ko dito, nagbus kami to Larkin (JB) then dun bumili ng ticket to KL (30 ringgit lang ata one way, half ng price pag SG to KL). Kaso lang be prepared kasi medyo mala-Pinas sa JB, lalo na kung gabi kayo pupunta dun.

Mas mabuti pa kung dito na kayo sa SG sasakay ng bus to KL.

By the way, if 4D3N lang kayo sa SG mas okay pa siguro na spend nyo na lang ang time na yan dito sa SG para mas sulit 

Hi sis, Aug 13 naman hehe after the holiday...di ko maopen yung link hehe
what do you mean "mala-pinas" and JB? pick pockets ba yan? or walang system ang bus station?
if that is the case, is it advisable to get a train from woodlands na lang to JB then JB to KL -- one train lang to right? meaning we don't need to get-out of the train sa JB since meron kami ticket from JB to KL.

gusto ko kasi mapuntahan ang KL - kasi nakapunta na ko sa sg eh...and puro adults naman kami so parang USS lang talaga ang main attraction...i don't reco kasi yung night safari sa mga kasama ko...dami tao and it seems to expensive...

Meron bang bus na derecho ng Legoland from Singapore? How about buses from Legoland to Kuala Lumpur? So far ang nakita ko lang eh mga roundtrip buses eh ('yung nasa may Singapore flyer).

Balak kasi naming umalis ng Singapore before 8am (with our luggage) then Legoland hanggang around 3pm tapos derecho na sa Kuala Lumpur. Flight namin the following day pa, sa KLIA na.

Meron din bang available lockers or left-luggage facility within Legoland's vicinity? Thanks, GT sisses!

May mga bus ba traveling to SG from Hello Kitty Malaysia? Natanong ko na to sa kabilang thread baka may nakakaalam lang din dito.
Nagbook kasi ako 1 way coach transfer lang to Legoland then last namin i-visit si Hello Kitty.
thanks mga sis

@sneezes Sis haven't tried the train to KL kaya wala ako alam dito. Baka yung ibang sis dyan may idea sila.

Yes, beware sa mga pick pockets/snatchers sa JB and KL basta dapat lagi ka lang alert.
Sa Larkin bus terminal, may ticketing booth. Ang ginawa namin is namili lang kami ng departure time ng bus tapos yun ang binili naming. Madami din mga nagaalok alok sa tabi tabi ng bus ticket, to be safe dun ka lang bumili sa booth mismo.

^^ legoland have lockers but I'm not sure if it can fit luggage. We have backpacks that day and we were able to fit two samsonite backpacks in one locker

Hi Chris! We used Causeway Link Bus before from JB to SG (stop is at Queens Bus Terminal) but they have several trips also coming from other areas in SG. You may check their web page and see which pick-up point is convenient for you. I think they added Legoland-KL (Bukit Bintang) route now and pick-up time from Legoland is at 6:30PM.

WTS bus to Legoland from SG Flyer leaves at 8:30AM I think.

Thanks, Dee!

Thanks, rhed!

Stressful! This is an unplanned trip. Nadoble lang 'yung transaction ko using the Cebu Pacific mobile app. Ginamit ko na 'yung amount for this trip instead of requesting for a refund (which will take forever to process)!

I'm not sure kung may nagtanong na nito before. My friends and I will be going to Singapore next month pero sa Malaysia kami mag check in ng hotel, sa JB actually.  Yun ba ang need namin na declare kahit di sya sa Singapore?

[stormy]

Hi! ano mga ok na bilhin pag GSS?  Lahat ba talaga nagse-sale?

[traveldelight]

facebook!

^ Where can we buy the tickets at SGD 55?

[pinksuman]

stormy,
yes sis lahat nagsasale except ofcourse na luxury ones like vs, hermes etc.

barbieavril,
sorry sis so yung flight nto pinas to sg? pero nakacheckin kayo sa jb malaysia?

fittotravel,
here's the link for the legoland lockers: http://www.legoland.com.my/Plan/FAQ/#Lockers
kapagod naman itinerary nyo =0
so bale before 8am alis kayo ng sg to legoland? kung nagcommute kyo or nagstraight bus it will take you 1 or 2 hours travel time. hope that weekday nyo ito gawin coz super daming tao pagweekend or public holiday. normally the traffic is bearable at nagpapatagal lang dyan is yung pila sa immigration. please note that bus from sg you go down with all your bags and puntang sg IO. sakay ulit sa bus and travel for about 15 to 20 minutes and baba ulit with all your bags and meet with Malaysian IO. Then exit na kayo. you go to legoland. please note that legoland nasa liblib na lugar sya as in sya lang ang nandun so you need to hire a taxi or car to go KL. jb to kl i think mga 4 to 5 hours travel pa yan so night time na kyo makakarating sa KL.
please also add ample time for traffic. Malaysia is just like Manila. matraffic =)

binggay,
you really need 2 taxis sis. alam ko masmura parin compared if you hire the hotel service. well it depends kase kung nasan ang hotel nyo. sa city area kase mga $30 to $40.
yung maleta naman sometimes kasya ang 2 big luggages into 1 cab pero may mga cabs na may gamit sa likod kaya hindi maximise yung pasahero yung luggage space pero anyways dahil big family kayo you really need 2 adults.

jenrb,
yes the gold in mustafa centre is affordable and authentic coz wala namang nagbebenta ng fake sa sg. me and my hubby bought our wedding rings sa kamala jewelers sa labas sya ng mustafa. marami syang branches and they customise. sa mustafa kung anong benta yun lang pero kung pumunta ka sa jewelry shop may customisation pero mga days nyo hihintayin.
i suggest to walk the whole stretch of mustafa etc coz lahat ng streets dun is jewelry shop. daming choices.

sis pinksuman, yes ganon nga.  Libre lang kasi ng friend namin yung hotel accomodation, Hilton hotel kasi ang preferred nya eh mas mura daw yung Hilton hotel sa JB kesa sa SG.  Actually kasi mauuna silang 5, manila to KL, then lipad sila to JB.  Tapos kaming 2 ng friend ko susunod sa kanila sa JB, pero ang flight namin ay Manila to SG, cross lang kami border to get to JB. 

4 days lang kami nung kasabay ko, 2 days sa JB then 2 days sa SG ang itinerary namin.  Then flight namin pabalik ng Manila eh thru SG din.

Legoland Hotel check in time is after 4pm. But you can leave your luggage at the front desk, then head off to Legoland Theme Park to play for the day before returning to the hotel to check in later at night.

Legoland Hotel check out time is before 11am. But likewise you can leave your luggage at the front desk, then head off to Legoland Theme Park to play for the day before returning to the hotel to collect the luggage at the end of the day.

ang ganda sa SG. 
Sulit ang madaliang pagpaplano ng itinerary.
sobrang efficient ng transportation system nila, so walang problema kahit saang part ka mag stay as long as may malapit na mrt station sayo. 
Nataon pa opening ng sea games yung byahe namin kaya dami naming kasabay na Philippine delegates sa airport and yung national stadium kung saan nag opening ceremony, walking distance lang from our hostel.
Bongga ng torch lightning and open display fireworks, hay, gusto ko na tumira sa SG!!!

[luscious_peach]

Who's generous to share a detailed itinerary for a 4-day trip in an excel file (with breakdown of expenses and directions). Finalizing our SG trip for next month. Many thanks!

[leihin]

Are there events on August 7 & 10 in SG for the holidays? I'll be there from August 7 to 11.

Hi mga sis! Kamusta naman ang mga nag-tour recently sa SG?
Pa-help naman po ako. First time ko mag-SG, kaya noob pa. Hahaha!

I'm done back reading. Mostly, 4days or 5days ang i-spent nila to this place.

We will be going to SG on Aug27-29. Yes, 3D/2N lang. So bitin.
Sobrang biglaan nitong tour namin.
We will be staying at Holiday Inn Clarke Quay, may feedback ba kayo sa hotel na to?

Anyone here can suggest a "sulit" itinerary for 3D/2N?
Also, how much budget po ang need ko dalhin just to cover myself? For food, tours, shopping for souvenirs, fares, etc.

(Please note excluding sa budget yung plane tickets & hotel)

Thanks in advance mga sissies! Would really appreciate your comments.

[bigdadis_girl]

^ayos naman sis, masaya and super ganda.  Efficient yung transportation system nila.  Hindi nakakatakot mag commute, malinis pa hangin. 
List down kung ano-ano mga gusto mo mapuntahan sa SG and mga gustong activities.  Since 3D/2N is bitin but you can explore its beauty na within that time.

[pogi02]

^ Sulit pa rin ba if mag-USS kami on our 2nd day? Kasi parang yun lang ang mapupuntahan namin. Gusto pa namin mag-Marina Bay Sands or Garden by the Bay.
Or is it more sulit if we will not go to USS tapos mag-city tour nalang?
What do you think sis?
