Re: Singapore (Thread 26)

[mybabyrj]

already set to go there on sept9. ok na plane ticket. kaso haze ang pinoproblema ko ngayon, asthmatic and may allergic rhinitis ang son ko.

should we cancel our trip?

[pjiyeon]

^ako naman sis september 14 flight ko paSG. sana walang haze sa week ng flight ko or else cancell ko nalang

[mybabyrj]

^oo nga sis. puro indoor activities ang magagawa natin doon pag nagkataon.

mga sisses na nasa sg, baka may maisuggest kayo na itinerary na indoor lang lahat

[michi247]

^Sis how about the Singapore Attraction Express (SAEX) I saw it in their website 11sgd direct from the hotel to the zoo. May kasama kasi kaming 2yr old, ok kaya ito?

^nakita ko yan, diyan din kasi kami nag-aabang ng public buses from SG Zoo. Hindi ko siya inavail kasi mas mura nga yung train+bus and hindi kasama yung Newton sa pick-up point. Kung malapit kayo, mas ok kasi 30 bus stops yata kami bago bumaba. lol

@toria - hindi na ko naghanap. if bumalik na lang si hubby at may time. Papahanap ko yan. Thanks!

Trip report, kababalik lang from SG. Aug 23-27

Day 1 Arrival to SG, check-in at Sheraton Towers at Newton - ok yung hotel, room and service. Malapit din siya sa MRT, 3 minutes walk. May complimentary use of smartphone sila so tipid ako sa roaming. Ang ayaw ko ang wala kainan so mapapamahal kung sa hotel pa magdinner. May Newton Food Centre kaso close sila that time, Sept 8 pa daw resume. Nasanay ko sa Bugis na marami pagpipilian.

Last time nag Singapore Tourist Pass kami 20sgd for 3 days pero this time EZ link na lang, kasi nung compute ko fare namin hindi naman kami aabot ng 5sgd RT. So mas makakamura kami and pwede din gamitin EZ link na pambayad sa vending machine.

Hindi naman mahirap magbus.

Day 2 Dahil gusto nga ng anak ko ng Zoos, Park Hopper Plus na kinuha ko, sulit talaga at makakatipid kung trip niyo na zoos lang iti niyo. 79 sgd adult and 59 sgd child, kasama na yung entrance for 4 zoos, unlimited tram rides (5sgd per zoo), unlimited amazing river quest ride (5sgd per ride) and one time carousel ride (6sgd yata). So for 3 days, food and fare lang gastos ko or if gusto mag-animal feeding ng anak ko.

River Safari - ito inuna namin and ilang beses kami sumakay sa Amazing River Quest. Ito rin fave ng anak ko siguro dahil may river cruise and ride nga.

Day 3 Singapore Zoo - Thank God for tram kasi nakakapagod sa sobrang laki. Kalahati lang yata naikot ko nung last na punta namin ni hubby. Pero this time, natapos namin ng anak ko, isang show lang namissed namin kasi 11AM na kami nagstart.

IKEA - for dinner and shopping.

Day 4 Jurong Bird Park - 2 shows lang meron sila so tip ko morning pa lang nandun na kayo para maaga kayo makauwi.

Back to hotel, ligo at punta naman sa Night Safari. 7:15PM ticket namin kaso late na kami nakarating so ang haba na ng pila sa tram ride. Nagtram lang kami at nood ng isang show, di na naman tinapos yung isang show, picture lang konti then uwi na kasi baka hindi namin maabutan yung train. hehe!

Day 5 Dapat Gardens by the Bay kaso pagod na kami. Nakipagmeet kami sa friends then IKEA. Back to hotel para kunin luggage then airport na.

Nakakasawa na puro animals nakikita ko pero enjoy naman anak ko. At least natapos na namin ang zoos so if ever makabalik, Sentosa naman. Yung Haze, di ko siya ramdam kasi feeling ko mas mausok pa sa EDSA. hehe!

[pchym]

Hi sisses! We're here in Sg na. Question po: diba at least 100sgd yung maspend for you to have the tax refund? Puwede ba accumulated receipts in a single day or 100sgd for single transactions? Thanks po.

[Heatherette]

^Single transaction only

[engroselle]

mahaba na post ko, pero meron pa. hehe

we rented nga pala yung pocket wifi sa Klook. adollarwifi na promo nila for first time users. si hubby pinag sign up ko. di na kasi ako pwede. it was a big help kesa mag roaming sya. 4 days was just 1k pesos. sa airport ang pick up and drop off ng unit.
wala ako nabiling salted egg chips. even sa airport wala. pinagtanong ko. sabi ng local dun, masarap sya pero mahal. sya mismo namahalan e. haha! sa airport daw wala. naghanap na rin sya dati. she bought daw sa shenton way pa. at pop up store lang daw yun. tipong weekends lang lumilitaw dun.
sunday was ikot ikot lang sa marina area sa hapon. nung umaga, Mustafa kami. wala din salted egg chips.😕 dun na din kami papalit usd to sgd. 1.345 rate nila.
cab kami papuntang st joseph's church. catholic church sa victoria street. st andrews sana pupuntahan namin.biggest cathedral kasi sa sg. protestant pala. hehe.
cab uli papuntang maxwell. as expected, blockbuster ang tian tian dahil kay anthony bourdain. hehe
some of the stalls were closed. sunday kasi.  dito kami medyo nahirapan kumuha ng taxi papuntang gbb. wala kami makitang taxi stand. 😁
cloud forest and flower dome kami sa gbb. pero nagpalipas oras muna sa mcdo sa loob ng gbb. better to be inside the domes ng around 1pm to 4pm. mainit kasi sa labas. hehe. dont worry, madami mauupuan sa loob ng domes. tambay mode talaga mga tao. nagpapalamig. better na may selfiestick kayo dito. para malalaki ang shots nyo. maganda talaga sa loob 😊<br>
we waited for the lights show. kanya kanya ng hanap ng spot ang mga tao. nakakangawit tumingala so i suggest humiga na lang kayo. 😊 <br>
we bought dinner sa texas chicken. malapit lang kasi. wala silang kanin! haha! biscuits pero kasinglaki ng muffins ng Kenny Rogers. laki ng chicken cuts. parang dinosaur 😊 we bought 1 box ng biscuits nila as breakfast for the next morning 😊<br>
Monday afternoon was our flight home. we woke up 8am na. nakaayos na luggages namin the night before pa. breakfast sa condo then airport na. T2 kami. we ate at 1983 penang. Malay food. ikot ikot then early check in. sinulit namin pocket wifi. di namin agad sinoli. 2pm na. hehe<br>
bili ng mga last minute items sa loob ng departure area. then waited for boarding. <br>
sa T1 ng NAIA lang kami park. parking fee was 1k (4d/3n). mura pa rin compared sa park and fly. 😊

[msrain]

i am travelling to sg on sept. 16-20.  i have a toddler with me... i saw sa news na may zika virus na daw. pwede kaya ipacancel flight sa cebupac without charge if there's a health risk?

[And1moon]

^ You have to ask Cebu Pacific pag ganyan. Based on experience they really don't do cancellations except pag may bagyo, or that time na medyo magulo sa Thailand nung nagka-coup. Given na kakalabas lang nung DOH advisory, i think the powers-that-be ng Ceb Pac are still deciding on the best course, if at all but better call them na lang to set a precedent

[imeego]

We were planning to go to singapore sa summer vacation ng kids next year sana..i  was preparing our itinerary na nga and lurking sa thread na to but with the news of zika, baka we wont push through anymore..buti na lang di pa ako nagbook ng tickets, i was doing mock booking sa singapore airlines last week and was so tempted to book na tapos ayan na may zika na

[msrain]

I called cebupac earlier and according sa customer service wala pa daw travel advisory so flights daw are still confirmed. wait na lang daw ako ng update in the coming days kung ano na ang status. however, australia, taiwan and south korea already sent their travel warnings sa mga citizens nila.

[blazingsheena]

Omg! Katakot ang zika. Tomorrow na kami alis to SG. Anyway, may alam ba kayo promocode sa klook? Dun sa nag avail ng internet broadband sa klook sulit ba and how much? 5 kami maghahati sa internet 😁😁

[engroselle]

hi!
sulit yung pocket wifi nila. pero yung promo na inavail namin was until aug 31 lang (P988 for 4 days). i dont know if na-extend. check it na lang. it's cheaper kesa mag-roaming ka and as you said, madami naman kayo maghati. mas makakatipid kayo 😊

[ri-anne]

thanks so much sis. available pa siya. avail ko na to. mga ilan gb of internet data kaya ito? or unlimited ba? iniisip ko kasi since 5 kami, baka magkulang sa amin? hehe di kaya?

[engroselle]

di ko alam sis kung ilang gb yun. hehe. kasi pag nasa condo kami, di na namin sya ginagamit. meron naman kasi dun 😊 basta pag nasa labas kami, yun ang gamit namin. nag ooverheat nga pala sya. yun din comments ng iba. pero carry na. off lang sandali tapos ok na uli 😊

[blazingsheena]

[sophistique]

Saan kaya mura bumili ng fall/winter clothes in SG this October? Baka sakali kasi may sale, doon na lang kami bibili to prepare for another trip. Thank you.
