thank u. Basically my plan is like that but dun noe ok bo.

16 June => Night flight
17 June => Reach GC, Rest and explore the hotel area a bit
18 June => Dreamworld
19 June => Seaworld
20 June => Paradise country + shopping (but where is nearer huh?, Habour Town?)
21 June => Super early flight to Sin :scared:

also would like to check if GC is a stroller friendly place coz think need to bring the stroller for my gal to nap.

ah yes Harbourtown. We go there on 2 separate days. lol. heard they got more factory outlets now compared to when I went there.

I prefer movieworld than dreamworld. Dreamworld is all about rides. Movieworld have more warner bros stuff for your 4yo. paradise country is near the other theme parks.

think 17 Jun you can also go harbourtown if you can finish the hotel area early.

which hotel you staying? I stayed near hard rock cafe. walk over a few streets can get a bus to all the theme parks and harbourtown. convenient.

I am staying near sufer paradise too but not too near.Abt 15mins walk. Ferny Ave (I think it is spelt like this)..Btw, Hard Rock ex? Also, how is the security at night? Safe to walk with the kids at night to Surfer's Paradise?

with regard to your previous post, Yes almost everything closes at 5pm.
so go at opening time and lve at 4pm. HRC price is normal i think. Cant really rem the price i paid. sorry.

http://video.xin.msn.com/browse/catch-up-tv/the-noose-6 -> episode 6.
check out the noose abt afew of the attractions at gold coast.
I did the jetboating as shown. NICE! but seriously dizzy for one who cant take dizzy bus rides or taxi rides. but think not suitable when you have kids.

The hotel I stayed was at hanlan street. Actually the hotel is beside HRC. it was prev known as Courtyard Marriott. Now is hotel chancellor.

You can try the Qdeck for viewing the entire Surfers paradise.

And the bus stop where i took to go theme parks and harbourtown is at ferny ave.

EDIT: oh, qdeck changed name to Skypoint which was also featured in noose episode 6.

EDIT2: episode 8 had dreamworld featured.

Hi,


I will be travelling to GC in June and am thinking of renting a car as I have a party of 5. Just like to check do I need to convert the Singapore licence to international license to rent the car?

Thanks.

Better to bring international license. Anyway it is easy to get.

I went to Sydney last November. I did not convert my Singapore driving licence to international, but they accepted after seeing the licence.
