Hi Everyone,

Any recommendation of Airbnb preferable 2 bedrooms, good location, near MTR/bus stop within TST?
Thank you

[Gwenstacy]

Still confuse if I should get the 2 days pass for DL $629 (last time I checked) w/o meal or 1 day pass $589 w/meal. Then there's the 3 in 1 meal coupon in DL $238. Sayang talaga, close yung NgongPing sa visit namin this month. Best experience pa naman daw.  Mga sis worth it ba to go to the Peak with kids? 3 nights and 4 days kami sa HK. So im thingking if skip na lang namin the Peak then go for the 2 days pass for DL on 1st and 2nd day then OP on the 3rd day just to experience the short cable ride then last day would be for shopping. Any insights sissies?

^If you're going on a weekend/holiday to Disney, kulang ang 1 day to see all the attractions. Puro pila ang gagawin mo. Average waiting time is 30-45mins. You will need at least 2 (bitin pa 'to minsan depending on the number of visitors). On a weekday, we were able to do/see 75-80% of the attractions. On our 2nd, tapos na kami before lunch and my kids visited again their favorite ones.

Btw, in choosing the dates, also consider if there are holidays in other Asian countries. We had a trip once in Night Safari in SG and nagkataon diwali festival. The place was packed than usual

[michi247]

^^ nag two days kami sa DL din dati para sulit. Yung OP naman ang hindi ko sinama sa itinerary namin.

Day 1 City Tour + The Peak
Day 2 Chin Lin Nunnery and Nan Lian Garden + Ngong Ping Village + City Gate Outlet
Day 3 Disneyland
Day 4 Disneyland - pinuntahan lang namin yung mga namissed namin na show and rides nung day 3 then umalis na kami ng mga 3 or 4PM.

[Gwenstacy]

Thanks sissies, we'll be going on a weekday. I'll check the holiday schedules. For sissy michi247, on your last day nag DL kau, panu naging set up niyo nun? Checkout from your hotel then go to DL then straight to the airport? Panu yung luggages? Or DL first then go back to the hotel for checkout then airport?

[michi247]

^  check-out kami then iwan luggage sa hotel. After DL, balik sa hotel para kunin luggage. Sa Disney's Hollywood Hotel kami nagstay.

Medyo kaloka lang yung bomb explosion kahapon sa MTR ano? 

[iceylicious]

mga sis sino na sa inyo nakapag availsa inyo sa air you go travels? mas ok po ba mag travel agency meron kase sila offer na 4D3N with airfare for 16,888 pesos or mag DIY nalang..
 btw, may kids and senior kami kasama.

[bb]

^hi sis! sa experience ko naghintay na lang kami ng medyo murang airfare (around 4,500 sa ceb pac) tapos hotel. May kasama din akong senior (tatay ko, 70) and 3 kids (ages 9,7,5). Naisip ko kasi yung sa mga package madaming kasama kasi group lagi ang pag alis. Eh minsan kasi may mga hindi maiiwasang pangyayari halimbawa yung pamangkin ko medyo sumakit tyan nya sa Macau so nagstay pa kami ng matagal doon. Kung nasa group, hindi ko alam paano gagawin kung hihintayin ba kami o sabihan na sumunod na lang. Ang advantage ng DIY, hawak mo kasi yung oras mo. Madali lang naman magtravel sa HK kasi ang train nila sakop na ang buong HK kaya lipat lipat ka lang ng train. Pero that's just me. Medyo sanay na kasi kami sa DIY kasi never pa kami kumuha ng package sa travel agency tuwing mgtravel. Quite an experience too, to explore new place relying on yourselves lang ... and google of course! hehe!

[iceylicious]

di ko pa rin kase na experience mag travel agency.
kung 6k na ticket roundtrip mura naba yun??

[runbarbierun]

^ Usually pag sale ang CebPac, 2500-3400 roundtrip ang ticket.

[bb]

^^ kami nasa P 4,100+ yung roundtrip flight namin sa cebpac din. November 2016 kami nagtravel.

[izabelle]

We have our tickets na din for our HK trip pero November pa yung travel date. Sa PAL kami nag booked, around 6,600++ round trip.

[Memamimu]

Mga sis, okay lang ba bumili ng tickets sa golden crown to Disneyland and OP kahit hindi kami Duon mag stay sa golden crown?

Pick up ba ang tickets? Thanks!

[_pink12_]

^Yes sis pwede. Just go there to buy and pick up your tickets.

[istine0618]

Hello Mga Sis,

Eto yung itinerary namin. Please suggest naman san okay kumain for lunch or dinner. kasama ko si Husband and 2 kids namin.

Baka isingit ko yung the Peak sa gabi after our Ocean Park Tour or dun sa Day 1 namin. Ano sa tingin nyo? Mas ok ba ng Day 1 or Day 2?

Ayaw ko rin nung masyadong nakakapagod na itinerary kasi nga kasama ko yung 2 kids. Maganda yung medyo relax lang.

Day 1 OCT 28: Arrive Macau Airport at 15:30, Own arrangement going to Hongkong Hotel
Day 2 OCT 29: Ocean Park
Day 3 OCT 30: Disneyland
Day 4 OCT 31: Pick-up at hotel in Hong Kong, transfer to pier & ferry to Macau Arrive Macau, Macau City Tour - Visit : A-ma temple, Ruins of St. Paul Catherdral, Macau Tower                          (Macau Tower ticket is optional), Souvenir shop and Casino. After tour, drop back to selected Macau hotel
Day 5 NOV 01: Back to Macau Airport for 16:35 flight

We might stay sa BP International in HK, for Macau any recommendation sa magandang hotel? Budget is around 8-10K pesos per night.

[izabelle]

Hello,

TIA!
