Hong Kong Guide (Thread 39)

[ohcmon]

Sisses, I'll be in HK with my parents on June 10-13. Mej bagets pa naman sila and still physically active so keri pa maglakad-lakad nang malayo.

First flight in, last flight out kami, and I'm wondering if this iti could work:

June 10
8:55 AM ETA HKIA
Check in to GC
Peak
Star Ferry
Avenue of Stars
Walking around TST
Nanlian Garden (possible pa kaya ito?)

June 11
Ngong Ping 360 + Village + Giant Buddha (AM to noon)
Disneyland (noon onwards)
Mongkok

June 12
Macau

June 13
CityGate outlets + shopping elsewhere
8:50PM ETD to MNL


Or sa last day na lang ba kami mag Ngong Ping + CityGate? Mabibitin ba kami if noon onwards lang kami sa DL?

[SOFIEMAE]

^allot 1 day sa DL sis.  Pwede kang mag mongkok kung kaya pa ng powers ninyo

[Heatherette]

I agree. Allot a day for DL. Baka pwede mo isama nalang si NP sa last day.

[ohcmon]

^^ and ^ thanks sisses! Malayo ba NP sa airport? Could we bring our luggages then ilocker na lang there tapos straight na kami sa airport from NP and CityGate? Or kaya pa bumalik sa TST before heading to the airport? 8:50 PM pa naman ang flight namin.

[Heatherette]

^Malapit lang si NP sa airport and may locker sa NP Maganda sis mag-stay nalang kayo around that area kesa bumalik pa sa TST kasi malayo na rin siya.

[glacy_rein]

^as per map malapit lang sis, hindi lang ako sure if may locker sa Tsing Yi Station, dun kasi change lines for airport station. malapit lang Tung Chung (NP/Citygate) so ok lang sa last day.

If mag-DL kayo ng whole day, check the Tsing Yi station na kung may locker para sure kana pagdating sa last day. Better get the Crystal Cabin tickets sa GC kung hindi naman kayo matatakutin sa heights (and yes better experience!) kasi mas walang pila to kesa sa Standard Cabin. Maaga din kayo dito sis para masulit ang Citygate outlet

[ohcmon]

^ and ^^ thanks ulit mga sis! Check out na lang kami before mag NP + CityGate para diretso na kami sa airport after. Iwan na lang sa lockers ang baggages.

^ Sis may I ask the difference between the Standard and Crystal Cabin? HKD 75 din kasi ang difference nila.

[SOFIEMAE]

crysta/glass pati sis yung floor ng cabin...

[glacy_rein]

^^HKD 75 din? ok na Standard sis kung budgeted kayo, we go for it kase for the experience. yung isang friend namen hindi kinaya, pinapikit namen+shades! hehe. Just be there na umagang umaga para masulit niyo time since kahit 8pm flight niyo dapat around 5-6pm nasa Airport na kayo.

[ohcmon]

^ Tinignan ko photos parang mas masaya nga crystal hahaha thanks sis and sis sofiemae! Open ba siya nang super early like 8AM?

[glacy_rein]

^aww closed pa sis. As per website 9am during weekends and Public holidays then 10am sa weekdays.

[ohcmon]

^^ Alright sis. Thanks so much for all your help!!

is it still worth it to go to Hongkong DL even if it rains the whole day?
June 9-12 kami doon and it seems that maulan nga buong stay namin doon according to accuweather.com
can you suggest anything? worth it pa ba mag DL?

[Heatherette]

^Yes! Nung 2 years ago (ata) nagpunta kami ng SIL ko and it rained the whole day pero ok lang kasi may raincoat naman plus walang pila!!!! So nasakyan namin almost lahat! Yung iba pinahinto lalo na yung racing something sa Toy Story land dahil sa ulan but the rest were opened.

hi guys!
i'm starting now my backread but it will be so helpful if makatulong kyo =) according to tripadvisor ok ang reviews sa dorsett mongkok. may nakatry na ba nito? if yes what's your feedback and my itinerary kyo for 5d4n? june 12 to 16 nasa HK kame.
worth it ba pumuntang shenzhen? visa on arrival ba? sabi kase ni hubby wala masyadong marunong mag english dun and puros shopping lang ang gagawin =)
been to HK and Macau last I think 5 years ako. dalawa pa lang kame nun ni bf now my hubby. so next week kasama na namin 4 yr old kid, nanny and friend.
thinking to get 2 rooms para may privacy kame ni hubby.
any feedback?
i'm thinking of shopping, Disneyland and baka mag Macau narin. sure ko naman may misa dun pag sunday no? para makapagsimba. we always go to church pag sunday nasa bakasyon kame whenever nasa ibang bansa para ma experience. kahit na may ibang bansa na we can't understand the language like japan...we still attended it =) best oscha I ever tasted...lasang rice crackers.
salamat ng marami.

okay kaya mag AirBnb sa HK? mahilig kasi dumura mga tao doon maski sa loob ng bahay nila kaya nakaka alanganin.

[Heatherette]

^I tried AirBNB twice sa HK It's about checking the reviews para makampante ka sa choice mo

[blueberry14]

sis Heatherette! do you know where to buy raincoats sa HK?
ayaw kasi namin magdala pa galing dito. sayang sa space sa baggage.
kasi for sure, mahal sa loob ng DL. 

[Heatherette]

^Sorry sis, sa DL lang din kasi kami bumili

[m_lim]

mga sis, anong ok na hotel or serviced apartment ang nasa 10-12thou range?
