Gardens by the Bay

[gerbil]

Suntec City Mall - Flyer = 10 - 20~ mins (depende kung nasaang tower kayo ng Suntec)
Flyer - Art Science Museum = 15~ minutes
Art Science Museum - Esplanade = 15~ minutes

Madali lang naman pong baybayin yang mga yan..

Thanks Miyawski. Will be in SG tomorrow with my parents. Sana kayanin ang lakaran. hehe. will share my experience when we get back.

Here's our itinerary: (sana masunod lahat)
3D/2N stay at Value Hotel Thomson (via Booking.com)

Day 1
Suntec City Mall
Duck Tours
Singapore Flyer
Art Science Museum (Harry Potter Exhibit)
Marina Bay Sands - "Wonder Full" light & sound show. saan magandang vantage points?
Dinner at Makansutra Glutton's Bay
Walk to Fullerton Hotel

Day 2
SG Botanical Gardens; Natl Orchid garden
Vivocity/Sentosa

Day 3
Little India
Chinatown
Back to Manila

======
Try nyo rin sa Singapore site ng atcrazy for vouchers for Flyer/Sentosa etc. Yun nga lang limited ang dates na dapat i-exchange mo yung printed voucher for actual tickets at their office near City Hall MRT and Funan Mall.

Depende kung anong backdrop ang gusto mo? Mga photography enthusiasts would prefer a location opposite ng Marina Bay Sands (ie Merlion Park area), for a shot like this (not mine):



Pros: View
Cons: Hindi mo ma-i-enjoy ang "Wonder Full" show.

Hehe.

Do you already have your accommodation? If yes where? Medyo mahal na kasi ang taxis past midnight. You can stay in Budget Terminal McDonalds or you can transfer to Changi Terminal 2 which is bigger than Budget Terminal, you can spend the rest of the night there, mapapasyal nyo pa ang Terminal 2. There’s a free shuttle from Budget Terminal to Terminal 2 which drop and pick-up in front of Budget Terminal's main entrance.

Thanks for the info! Yun nga balak namin either magstay kahit san of the two airports. We're planning to stay in Geylang or Bugis, me masusuggest ba kayong budget friendly na hotel/apartment dun? Also, on an everage 3d/2n trip, how much pocket money is fair enough to bring? Thank you..

Hi guys, do u know how the vouchers/deals from AtCrazy.com work (& relaible ba site na to)? Meron kasi available voucher for USS+Altitude Galler+Song of Sea now, sakto sa itinerary namin. Ask ko lang din pano ang pagclaim ng tickets, i.e. for USS since me preferred date kame ng pagpunta doon, marereserve ba nila tickets for that day? TIA

wala ako masuggest kasi never pa ako nag-hotel dito sa sg. try checking agoda.com or any other online hotel booking sites. advise ka na lang namin kung ok ang location ng hotel (kung malapit sa city, airport or mrt).

never pa ako nakatry sa mga deals sa pinas. pero yung mga deals dito sa singapore (groupon, streetdeals) ok naman. for the ticket redemption, usually pinapadala ang vouchers through email, or pupunta kayo sa mismong travel agency then show nyo yung voucher tapos saka kayo bibigyan ng ticket.

Thank you. Hassle kasi oras ng flight namin to and from SG. Hopefully pwede sila late/early checkin/checkout. I'll post again in the coming days..Salamat ulit!

You can deposit your bags sa mga hotel. for example dumating kayo morning but 1pm pa ang checkin, pwede nyo ideposit yung bags nyo then pasyal muna kayo then after 1 pm pwede na kayo mag check-in. Same goes for checking out. you can leave ur bags, gala muna then balik kayo ng hotel before going to the airport

Thanks Jo! I'll take your advice nalang. Cramming na for finding hotels/apartments. We're eyeing for Bugis/Geylang area. Any suggestions?

guys you can browse hotels sa mga online hotel booking sites like agoda.com or asiarooms.com.. trusted naman sila, you can even filter your search by location, by lowest rates, etc...

post nyo na lang dito yung name ng hotel at location then saka na lang kami magcomment kung ok ba ang location or accessible sa lahat.

Magkano po ba budget nyo per night?

Usually ang Hotel 81 and Fragrance Hotel ang nag-o-offer ng mejo affordable na accomodation dito. If the hotel's location is geylang.. usually mas mura din (part of the reason is that it's near the red light district ng singapore). Rates last time I checked for a friend is S$50~ onwards per night.

Another alternative nyo is no-frills hostels. A friend stayed in Superb Hub in Arab Street (near Bugis) and okay naman feedback nila.
