QUOTE(Beachkid @ Aug 11 2011, 07:05 AM) Hi all, 5-6k including flights?I saw the current promo would be approximately 1500 Malaysian if I travel next year Feb. If I were to go to Hong Kong Disneyland for 2-approximately 800 HK right now, and stay there 5 days 6 nights-food,mid level accomodation and entrance fees for tourist sites. Would MYR 5000 to 6000 be enough? Food average HKD 50 per pax per meal if you are going for roasted goose or bird, prepare to HKD100 per ppl prepare HKD150 per pax for food in HK disneyland This can easily cost you rm1k Feb still CNY period so mid range hotel will cost your around rm350 per night meaning it will be around rm2100 for 5 nights 5-6k will be enough if you manage to get ur flight for two pax below rm1k each |

QUOTE(lowyatter @ Aug 25 2011, 01:47 PM) C.) One thing i really enjoyed was going up to the Peak to see the night time view. Dont take the tram which is super overcrowded, instead take the bus. Cheap and no queue!. I would say taking tram up to the peak is a must-try thing and make sure u sit on the Right hand side of the tram as you can see astounding view along the way. Just use your octopus card to get in and avoid Fri - Sun plus holidays, the queue will be shorter. My mom who is in her early 50 also queued for it so it wasn't really that bad. Taking bus ride from the peak to Central is another better way to get back to city. Bus 15 / 15c will drop you at Peddar Street then you can walk to many good restaurant. D.) Symphony of Light is also worth watching. Everynight around 730?? there will be sound and laser show from all along Victoria Harbor It starts at 8p.m every night This post has been edited by moody5: Aug 26 2011, 09:52 AM |

QUOTE(XboX720 @ Aug 31 2011, 01:17 PM) Hi everyone, I will be traveling to HK next year April 2012. Currently looking for accommodation. Any worthwhile recommendations? actually it is slightly too early for you to book Apr 2012 hotel room. most of the hotel rate for next Apr will be only released in Dec -JanI found Cosmo Hotel which is within my budget, anybody stayed there before? Cosmo hotel, is it located in Wan Chai? (as i only can remember there is a Cosmo Hotel located in Wanchai which is far from MTR) |

QUOTE(XboX720 @ Sep 2 2011, 07:59 PM) Yup, that's it. But it says in their web page they have free shuttle bus to 15 destinations including MRT. you are going there in Apr 2012,right?http://www.cosmohotel.com.hk/facilities.html My budget will be around RM 700 for 2 nights. Please comment and suggest. Trust us, you dont have to rush to book hotel now as your budget is good enough to stay at better hotel which those hotels mostly will announce their rate only in late Dec onwards Added on September 5, 2011, 11:10 am QUOTE(XboX720 @ Sep 4 2011, 12:03 PM) It's an interesting place to stay, hope they still have rooms for April 2012. no matter how hard you search for your Apr 2012 hotel, mostly will quote u crazy prices or show 'N/a" as they are not opened up for Apr 2012 yet You've stayed there before? Could you share some thoughts of the hostel. This post has been edited by moody5: Sep 5 2011, 11:10 AM |

QUOTE(eksk86 @ Sep 8 2011, 01:13 PM) I will be going over to Macau on the last day of my trip to catch my flight. Which ferry you guys recommend to take? I know there's Turbo Jet, Cotai Jet and New World First Ferry. Btw, do they have a limit on passenger's luggage? My family and myself will be travelling with a medium-big luggage and a hand carry luggage each. it depends on where do you stay in HKIf you staying in Kowloon island then it is more convenience to take New World First Ferry If you are staying in HK island then it is more convenience to take Turbo or Cotai and Cotai stop at the pier which is nearer to macau airport anyway, no worry on the hand carry luggage |

QUOTE(XiuKeong @ Sep 12 2011, 02:49 PM) For the ferry from Macau > HK, is it possible to buy the ferry tix at a specific time but board the earlier time? Possible. For example, I bought 5pm but board the 4pm ship:) It is up to your luck that they let you board or not depending on the availability of seat |

[/quote] you typed from The Peak to Central (that you missed out the 'downhill tram station') in your previous post which this may mislead them. no offense if you are taking MTR, Admiralty stop is nearer to it. Added on September 22, 2011, 9:23 am[quote=XiuKeong,Sep 22 2011, 01:20 AM] Same like my case. A taxi driver offered HKD100 for a short ride to Central from Tram Station which actually only cost HKD20. Oops. Forgot to mention it's tram station. It's the uphill that I dislike about [/quote] wow HKD100 really big time con man! hahaha if you are young and weather is nice, maybe can consider walking Don't try to do this in the bloody warm summer or when you are travelling with kids and elders, just pay the HKD 20 (the jump start amount of cab).
