Hong Kong Guide (Thread 42)

^Disneyland and Ocean Park saka mga meals ang kinuha namin. Wala naman naging problema.

Mga sis may difference ba yung tickets na binibenta sa Klook vs Golden Crown? I mean kung may added perks(fastpass, priority lane sa entrance gate etc) ba yung sa Klook compared sa nabibili sa GC. Nagcompare kasi ako ng price and mas mura sa GC lalo na kapag naka-family package (2 adults, 1child).

To those who got their tickets thru Klook, how was your experience so far? Madali ba magredeem? I just downloaded the app, first-time user so nangangapa pa ko how to use it.

Ive been using klook on our travels to SG and HK so far so good. Madali lang sis after payment isesend nila thru email ang tickets. I got discounts too because of the points.

When we went to SG last year, sa Klook ko binili lahat ng tickets namin. Wala naman naging problem. Sa USS iniscan lang sa turnstyle yung ticket na sinend sa email ko.

Will buy tickets din sa Klook for our HK trip on Oct. may promo sila ngayong August Php 1200 off sa attractions basta naka minimum na 15k. Super good deal!

[o9kristin]

Mga sis how mich usual price ng food sa HK? Kasya ba 30HKD per meal? We're ok with fastfood and convenience store food..

[ohcmon]

^ Sa McDo nasa HKD 25-40 ang meals. Sa tabi-tabing Chinese restos, nasa HKD 40-70 ang noodles at rice meals.

We just got back from HK. Stayed at Tai San Guesthouse in Haiphong Mansion. We liked it better than Golden Crown. The room for 3 pax we got for HKD 550/night lang, free laundry pa and there's a water dispenser available so no need to buy distilled water. The location can't be beaten! Lots of shops and cheap restos surrounding the area, and within walking distance lang ang Harbour City and iSquare.

Dinayo namin CityGate, was able to get a pair of Doc Martens for PhP 3,000. Presyo ng Timberland 3 pairs for what is normally the price of 1 dito sa Pinas. Sulit pa rin puntahan ang outlet shops dun for me. Dami namin na-hoard sa Body Shop at Guess, tapos the sports outlet stores 'yung ibang current styles discounted na doon.

The tourist SIM in 7/11 costs HKD 80 for 1.5 GB 5 days. Not bad na rin.

Tip lang to bring water bottles lalo kung mag theme park kayo kasi maraming water fountains. Dami namin na-save sa tubig kasi medyo mahal ang bottled water doon, plus walang malamig na tubig sa restos puro mainit lang.

Hi sisses! Kelan sale season sa HK? July lang ba? Planning to go back next year pa naman para sa birthday ng baby ko. Nagdadalawang isip nga lang ako kasi diba maulan, sana worth it naman yung mabili ko sa sale if ever haha. And lagi bang sale sa citygate? Hindi kami nakapunta last time we went to HK kasi medyo malayo, sa GC kami nag stay that time.

[ohcmon]

^ Last week marami pa ring on sale sis. Outlet stores 'yung mga nasa CityGate so discounted items doon regardless kung sale season or not, though may extra promos ngayon na sale season.

IMO hindi naman siya mahirap puntahan. Pwede saglitin kung galing or papunta nang airport at DisneyLand.

[crzysxycl]

^Hi sis. So July-August ang sale season? Haha, naexcite ako bumalik ng HK. Thanks!

8-11 SEpt 2017  sino  may  travel na  same date.

[iceylicious]

sis,  mas ok po ba pumunta na MAcau on weekdays?
from Golden Crown paano po pumunta sa ferry terminal.. parang dami ata terminal papunta dun.

ano mas ok unahin? ngong ping / city gate or the peak?

kung mag disneyland kami ng weekdays may fireworks display pa din ba sa gabi?

ty.

[cl1995]

^Yup. May fireworks display pa din ang Disneyland even weekdays. Actually every night meron talaga.

[ficklemind]

"from Golden Crown paano po pumunta sa ferry terminal.. parang dami ata terminal papunta dun."

lakad lang sis from Golden Crowne to Ferry Terminal ng Kowloon (China Ferry Terminal)
medyo mahabang lakad lang, more than 500 meters.

May ferry terminal din sa HK Island, in this case you need to take the train to Sheung Wan stn. The name of this terminal is Hongkong Macau Ferry Terminal.

Both Terminals may biyahe pa Macau.

[swtgrl_bee]

Yes sis iceylicious, meron pa din. Ay grabe kakamiss ang fireworks. Ang magical kasi. 

[mysterioza_me]

Nagdadalawang-isip ako if tutuloy kami ng Macau. May nagsabi kasi na di sulit pumunta mahal pa naman ang RT ferry ride. Kung hotel hopping nga lang gagawin namin baka di magenjoy ang bata na kasama namin. Ano kayang pwede ipalit na 1-day activity if di kami tutuloy sa Macau. Ayaw ko ng The Peak and Madam Tussaud. Ngong Ping kaya naman ata ng halfday lang pero ano pa kayang pwede namin gawin after ng Ngong Ping.

Day 1: Arrival
Day 2: Disneyland
Day 3: Ocean Park
Day 4:?
Day 5: Departure

Pwede kaya  isingit yung Ding ding Tram and Star Cruise ferry sa Day 3?

Hi momshies, I need your input with regards to my plan itinerary, we are going last week of Nov so Im not sure its cold already by that time, I am with my husband, my mother in law na medyo malakas pa naman, may 4 year old and 16 month old baby.
We will be staying at Le Prabelle in Mongkok
Day 1 Arrival late na so mag mongkok lang kami pasyal pasyal
Day 2 Disneyland
Day 3 Lantau sa morning then the peak sa hapon, I wanted to ask if this is too much
Day 4, our flight is from Macau late night 10 pm, so I am planning na mag mall muna sa am sa HK then punta Macau afternoon, leave our bags sa Venetian which is 10hkd daw per baggage, balik din kami there kasi may shuttle there to Macau airport
They said na maganda un play area sa Venetian and Dreamplay sa Macau so plan ko dun mag stay un kids before kami umalis. Sight seeing lang talaga and ruins and puntahan naming sa Macau.
There is a Panda reserve pala dun, pero mukang malayo, sino po nakapunta na dun?

Also still contemplating kung san better bumili ng ticket sa Golden Crown or sa Klook.

Thanks in advance for those who will share input

Pls guide us. Reply and suggestion will be really appreciated. Thank you sissies.

Sis cheniwin kung wala ka naman pupuntahan sa TST area, mag Klook ka nalang. Kasi ang hassle naman if pupunta ka pa sa Golden Crown just to pick up your tickets di'ba? Saka laruin mo yung Klook app or / site ( I used this kasi) kung saan ka makakamura. I used google docs pa nga noong trip namin noong March at talagang ang laki ng na-discount ko sa Klook.  Madami silang on-going promos/voucher codes.

[ohcmon]

^^^ You may allot Day 4 for Ngong Ping + shopping. Puwedeng diyan kayo mag night market din para hindi niyo na isingit after DL and OP.

Personally for me okay naman mag-side trip sa Macau. Maganda mag-sightseeing, tapos libre naman 'yung mga bus to get around so basically food at ferry fare lang gagastusin niyo doon kung hindi kayo mag-shop. Plus, it's not a place you'll go to na talagang lilipad ka sa Macau ka lang pupunta, so might as well visit na rin kung nasa HK kayo hehe.

[mysterioza_me]

^Oo nga sis medyo nanghihinayang din ako if di kami tutuloy ng Macau pero inaalala ko kasi son dahil mainipin yun kung puro lakad lang. May nabanggit yung isang sis natin dito tungkol sa Dream Play Macau, meron din pala dun. Baka i-consider namin yun para lang magkaron ng activity anak ko dun. Thanks sis.
