CHATBOX (kuno kasi walang chatbox sa tsikot)

Wife is leaning towards SG. Tapos tawid daw sa Malaysia para sa Legoland. What would be the best month/s to visit? Magbabasa-basa muna ko ng do's and don't at tips for first time travelers. Heh.

Was also wondering, mas okay ba yung mga tour package or magsariling itinerary na lang kami?

wag na kayo kumuha ng packaged tour.

"free n easy" na lang - para hawak nyo oras nyo.
lalo na at me kasama kayong bata.

weekends/holidays malaki crowd.

kung me kasama kayong magbabantay ng gamit nyo mas ok.

yung nga lang ambilis magbago ng weather.
last month me halos 1 week na umuulan kaya malamig.


to/from Legoland - me taxi/limo service. mas ok yun kasi me kasama kayong bata. derecho hatid sa park or sa hotel. kahit 1 day trip ok lang. pero dati kami nag 2 days dahil sa waterpark.

No need for tours. Check out PEX (pinoyexchange, not sure if it’s still active). There are threads there in the Travel area where you can check out the places you want to visit (international & local). There are very useful tips, not sure of updated lang.

Pinakita ko nga sa anak ko yung Legoland at waterpark nila. Naexcite!

Will check this one out. I remember I registered in this forum way back 2010 to check the latest in IT companies to apply.

tour is nice, if one wants a programmed schedule.
but googling for the sights and doing them yourself, is more... invigorating.
you do not have to follow a time schedule. you can stop and smell the flowers and linger longer, sample some local meal, or put your feet up and rest, anytime you want.
SG is a small place. "it's fun, getting lost". just don't run out of money.

also,
be wary of local holidays.
years ago, we asked an "informed" person, on what day to go to universal.
"tuesday" daw.
so we did.
turns out, that particular day, was a school holiday!
ang haba haba nang pila!

Now that you mention it doc, I might just ask one of the users of our client in SG on the best days to visit.

Best months for me is October-November or January-February, kasi medyo malamig na at hindi na din bagyuhin. Malaki chances na walang flight cancellations or rebooking. Summer kasi okay sana kaso mainit sa Malaysia.

Combination of tour package and free time dapat sa Singapore at free time din sa pagpunta sa lego land para hawak mo oras at schedule mo imho. Dami naman nga masesearch na guide sa internet about going to Lego land from SG.

Mukhang ito na ang final namin. Ikot sa SG then Legoland ang last leg bagi umuwi.

Thanks everyone! Sana matuloy kami.

When I was in the US, almost daily I was at subway, USD5 if you get the sub of the day. Magkano na ba Subway here?

Pricey nga sa PH for a sandwich. I love 711 siopao pero sa Dali I found siopao that is just as good

price-y, but malaman.

Yung kowloon sa park square (90s/80s) favorite ng Dad ko. We would always stop by there before going home but my Mom would always remind my Dad bumagsak daw sa city hall sanitary inspection kaya napasara ata for a while. Kaya na bad impression sakin Kowloon hehe

The quality of Kowloon House has dropped

Passed by the branch in West Avenue and the Siopao is a dissapointment
