Singapore (Thread 27)

[chummychum]

Hi Sisses! Gusto sana namen mag Legoland then Legoland Waterpark the next day. Aside from Legoland Hotel, me alam ba kayo na hotel or airbnb na malapit sa Legoland? Thanks!

Hello, sobrang dami na po ng thread. Baka po may nakakaalala which accommodations/airbnb/hotels are accessible to Sentosa and Marina as all tourist attractions are located there. TIA

San maganda mag stay? Geylang, Bugis or Orchard?

[i_miss_sleep]

^same question for my upcoming trip

[chicafabulosa]

We normally stay at Orchard area. Tapos we just take a taxi going there kasi marami kame (normally my kid and 3 adults kame). Mas tipid for me ang taxi kesa mag bus lalo na may bata kame na dala.

[my_name_is_meg]

Geylang area (where I am right now) is a bit far from Sentosa and Marina. Better stay in Orchard or Bugis. But if you prefer Geylang ok lang din basta walking distance lang sa MRT. lahat naman ng nabanggit madali basta malapit sa MRT.

Hi sisses. Ask ko lang kung worth it ba mag sands skypark? Thank you!

Just got back from SG.  We loved it!  Everything so neat and clean and orderly.  Aliw na aliw kami sa MRT nila.  Ang daling gamitin.  I initially planned on buying the EZ Link card pero mas naging madali for us to just buy tickets as we went.  We used the train most of the time, but other days na pagod na from walking, nag-Uber kami.  Totoo nga na ang dali to get around SG.  Nakakainggit sana ganun din dito.

We stayed at The Strand Hotel in Bencoolen.  Super convenient, MRT literally sa harap ng hotel.  Highly recommended area kasi maraming malapit na kainan.  Mga thrice din kami kumain sa Food Republic sa tapat.  Din Tai Fung the afternoon we got in.  Ang ganda sa Fort Canning area.  Ilang kembot lang from our hotel.  We spent almost a day sa park and National Museum of Singapore. 

We loved how walkable the city is.  Ang sarap to just wander aimlessly, puro green makikita mo, wide open spaces. Siguro eto yung pinaka-naappreciate ko sa bansa nila.  And of course, the food!

We'll be having a short stopover in Singapore this March 23. We'll be arriving by 10AM then our flight to Manila is 5:20PM. Do you think we can still squeeze in some photo ops destination like Merlion Park and other free attractions then pasalubong center (for chocolates)?

Need your tips on how we could maximize the limited time. TIA.

^ hi sis you're lucky pasok kayo sa 5.5hrs na layover. Free guided city tour yun.

here's the deets: http://www.changiairport.com/en/airport-experience/attractions-and-services/free-singapore-tour.html

Hi sisses. We'll be staying at an apartment in Mackenzie road, near little india station. 5pm arrival namin so I am estimating mga 7pm na kami makarating sa place. May pwede pa kaya kaming puntahan around that time? yung malapit lang sana para di sayang oras. Thank you!

My cousin and I will be going to singapore this june. How much kaya dapat pocket money namin?

[summersunder]

madami bang sale kapag CNY? I will be there ng weekend na yun eh hehe. Sana my mga open na stores and places para mag ikot

[icegayle]

We stayed in Bugis before, okay naman ang place tahimik. Pero siguro next time na balik namin sa Little India na kami hahanap ng hotel. Aside from mas affordable ang hotel, madami pang choices for Halal food. And for me ok naman ang area unlike sa iba na may nagsasabi na madumi. Mas madumi pa nga sa Manila eh. Just saying.

@kaiz

5k a day is good... not sure what you want to buy though...
I brought 50k and I just spent 25k with souvenirs na.. pero I paid all attractions na. Shopping, transpo and food lang yun. I stayed in SG for 4 days or 5 ata.. di ako nagtaxi. siguro 3 times lang.

Depende sis kung ano ba ang trip nyo gawin.  Uminom, kumain or maglakad lakad lang. If trip nyo Indian food then you can go around Mustafa area.  Cheap and tasty food.  Mustafa is open 24hrs.  Kung inom naman, you can go to Clarke Quay.  Maglakad lakad, you can go around Esplanade around the bay area.  Behind that you can find Makansutra for food. I believe theyre open til 2am.  Your place is near Orchard din. 7pm is not so late. Madami pa kayo mappuntahan.   

[ficklemind]

agree madami pa kayo magagawa after 7pm.

*Marina Bay (Esplanade, Merlion or sa Marina Bay Sands mismo, dun sa mall)
*Gardens by the Bay (conservatories closes at 9pm pero yung grounds and free area open pa naman yun after 9) pwede pa kayo kumain sa Satay by the Bay
*Orchard
*Chinatown
*Clarke Quay
*Bugis
*Mustafa (open 24hrs)

i'll try to think more pa 

all these places malapit lang sa Little India

Hi sisses. Ask ko lang kung worth it ba mag sands skypark? Thank you!

I dunno how to answer your question.  Ill describe it na lang.  Its a large cantilever deck with wooden floor and glass fence.  May souvenir and refreshment shop.  If you go by day, make sure you have umbrellas, hat and sunglasses and sunblock.  Sobrang init.  At night naman expect people sitting/ viewing all around the edge. Walang ibang makikita dun ayun lang.
