Lautau island - just take MTR to Tung Chung station which is on the island itself.
Yes as far as I know, cab goes by meter. In city area, not that difficult to get a cab. But I thought their cab fares is around the same as SG rates? Not that expensive if you compare to Europe.

I took the cab before and it was quite cheap, I find. Better than walk all the way to MTR station which was a bit far (was at Harbour city side).. But of cos, you cannot compare taxi fares with MTR fares. They are close to SG rates.
Lantau island
- Big buddha
- Po Lin monastery
- Tai O
- Disneyland
- Airport
Hmm.. can't remember what else.

Hi Mao Mao
We'll be visiting during the 1st week of Dec on a weekday, do u think it'll be crowded? We plan to spend a full day there, is it enough to cover everything? Should we go for the shows 1st or the rides 1st? What about makan, anything nice & cheap? How's the weather?
We're not staying at the Disney hotels but will be at the Nathan Hotel, any comments on this 1??
Many thanks in advance!!

Hi All
I will be going hk with two kids on the 11Dec,staying at lingham place hotel.Planning to take a train to disneyland from there, anyone can advice?I do not intend to start the trip to disneyland early as I have a 16mths old baby who needs to nap before he can stay awake till the firework display....
Any advice what is the latest timing I should head to disneyland during the days...I guess my gal will basiclly take the ride and picture taking and that it is. In LA disneyland, she spent about half a day...cos she cannot take the ride when she was only 2.5 years old then.
Thanks

Hi Dreamer
Thanks for reply...
Hubby already booked the ticket to disneyland via internet...its still cheaper than the price paid for in LA. My daughter is excited about disneyland and also we promised her to bring her if she did well in her exams.
If we do not take train, what is other mode that can help to get to disneyland...we do not mind paying as the air tickets and lingham place are all paid for.thanks again.

Hi Dreamer
No, not first time to hk, many times, but with one kid and only stay one day as next day I usually fly to LA for my holidays.
Yap, this time round, everything paid for except taxes as this is the lucky draw prize that I won....Oh yes, I paid for the disney land tickets.
Cost me a bomb?Like how much per trip as in singapore dollars?

S$120 includes to & fro from hotel / disneyland, entrance fee & unlimited rides.
Still ex?

Hi Rachel,
I'm really worried that it'll be very crowded.
This is my first time staying in Shamrock. What's your comments on the hotel?
So which hotel will u be staying this time round? how much you pay? I paid $1220 for 9D8N, travelling by cathay.

hey sunshine,
guess it shd be crowded as it's e festive season... think is better for u to book tix online...jus in case
personally, i've quite negative comments on shamrock...
$1220 for 9d8n is quite reasonable... me hv booked cathay airtix online, $480...
hv yet to book any accomodation... most of e hotels, even hostels, are either fully booked or double, triple their rates, which are really out of our budget... now cracking my head... sigh

Hi Rachel
I just got back from hk.Langham place location is excellent.Weather is a bit unpredictable. Not cold...lucky no rain when I went to disneyland on tuesday...wednesday was raining cats and dogs...Many caught unprepared as in the weather is not cold yet has to put on thick sweater even in disneyland itself...wonder some, wanna look good and not scared of heat.....
Of course, during rainy days, just a light cardigan is good enough..their weather is just like singapore rainy days....
Disneyland is small as compared to LA.Not happening but my girl enjoyed it...
