How to travel to Palau How much does it cost to travel to Palau?

Palau is also a popular tourist destination. Today, Bian Xiao will talk to you about some related strategies about this scenic spot, including accommodation, expenses, transportation and other information. Now you can watch it with Bian Xiao.

Transportation from China, the most common way is:

It only takes 3.5 hours for Hong Kong and Macao to fly without detours.

Taipei flight

Seoul Fei

Generally, northern guests will choose to fly from South Korea and buy more air tickets themselves. A couple in Jilin flew from South Korea for many days, and a couple in Zhoushan flew from Taipei to Palau for less than 4 RMB.

How to buy a plane ticket

1. Buy your own air ticket and book a hotel.

Disadvantages: Waste of people and money.

Advantages: Stay as long as you want.

You can choose to fly from South Korea or Taipei to buy your own air ticket, and the air ticket will be 6k+ round trip all year round. I tried to book my own plane ticket this time, because the machine wine is too limited. After all, I really don't like the mode that the machine wine bag restricts me to play for a few days, but I travel to Palau alone. 1w3. Hmm. Goodbye.

2. Book wine from charterers, land agencies and travel agencies.

Advantages: cheap, really cheap, much cheaper than your own.

Occasionally, in the off-season, there will be more than 6k and less than 7k, and the price for two people to live on holidays will be so high. So if you want to order wine in Palau, it's strange that others will definitely book earlier and cheaper air tickets, but Palau won't! Palau a few months in advance, the charterer may abandon the plane, and the price will be extremely cheap. So ask your agent more and ask them to check the price for you and save you money.

Disadvantages: only 5 days and 4 nights or 6 days and 5 nights.

Point: In fact, 5D4N can never have five days, and 6D5N can never have six days! ! ! !

And the cheater is! ED Pacific Airlines looks like 6 days and 5 nights, but it only takes 4 days. I lost two days from the first night to the last morning! So this time I chose to take LQ Langmei Airlines from Macau. From the first night to the last night, there will be one more day than in the Pacific Ocean.

The advantages of the Pacific Ocean are:

1. will never be cancelled due to uncontrollable reasons such as weather.

Punctuality and good service. It is said that the plane meal is also good.

Pacific disadvantage:

1. The price is generally high, and you can go to Hong Kong and Macao (I heard that Macao stopped these days. I don't know the truth)

2. If the arrival and departure time is not good, it will be 2 days less than the actual time.

Advantages of Meilan:

1. What a precious day! What a precious day! What a precious day!

2. The fare is very low.

Mei Lan disadvantages:

1. Cambodia Airlines, the plane is very small. I hesitated when I saw the plane, thinking, I am very grateful to buy 500w aviation insurance for my husband and me. I really haven't been on such a small plane. But the on-board service is really good. Free shipping per person 15kg, and a meal, although the meal is really, um, terrible.

It is said that there is a history of canceling the black market, and it didn't set sail until 17. I don't know how much longer I can hold on.

We can only leave from Macao. After all, inland air tickets to Hong Kong still have great advantages, and there are many direct flights. I have a direct flight from Xi 'an to Macau, but I don't, and the ticket price is very expensive. In fact, the price of going inland to Macau (+Macau hotel accommodation) is included.

Precautions for booking charter flights:

1. This ticket was issued late.

Generally, air tickets for charter flights will only be released 1-2 days in advance. Usually, once the reservation is not refundable, but you really can't go, you can contact the agent to change your name about 1 week before departure (provided that you can sell it to others or entrust an agent to sell your machine wine package).

You need to print a ticket to travel.

It is precisely because the ticket is issued late that it is easy to cause the embarrassment of nowhere to print. You don't need a passport to cross Hong Kong and Macao, but you need an air ticket for your trip. I'm so worried. I didn't print it when I passed through Macao this time. The check-in counter didn't change my ticket, so I had to print it. When passing through Beijing, I was stopped and watched my mobile phone's electronic trip to travel itinerary repeatedly.

3. Departure tax must be levied together with the air ticket! Generally speaking, the price of machine wine does not include departure tax, and it is $65,438+000 per person. This fee should be paid to the charterer in advance and can be cleared directly when leaving the country. Palau also has other fixed taxes. How much did Palau spend?

Only Palau 1 Expressway, 2 gas stations and no traffic lights are needed.

Palau has no agriculture or industry, and all materials are imported.

Therefore, it is conceivable that the price in Palau must be not low.

And Palau's tax on tourists is really not low. They are:

1. Departure tax is 100 USD per person.

2. The ocean tax is 50 dollars per person/10 day.

3. The fishing tax is 20 dollars per person (put a question mark here, because I don't have sea fishing and personal test, 20 dollars is certain, but 20 dollars is still 10 days, I don't know yet).

According to the calculation, if you want to go fishing abroad, the Palau government will charge you 170 US dollars, which is equivalent to more than 1000 soft sister coins per person. This is also the place where my meat was a little sore before I went to Palau. Obviously, I want to give you flowers, and you have to charge me so much inexplicable money. Later, when I chatted with local tour guides, I realized that Palau's government is very poor and totally depends on aid (but it is unwise to hug China's thigh, alas), and tourism is also their most important source of income. Therefore, it is understandable that the Palau government, with its rich marine tourism resources, levies taxes on tourists. Palauans are also friendly to tourists. This is one of the reasons why I have a very good impression of a country that has not established diplomatic relations with Greater China.

Palau trip price has been given above. It's not cheap either, is it That's not all. In addition to these fees, you must also pay the tour guide a mandatory tip of $65,438+00 per person per day. But it doesn't matter, believe me, it's worth it!

Eating in Palau is not cheap either. A portion of shredded potatoes is 8- 12 dollars, mangrove crabs are about 30 dollars a catty, and a bowl of noodles is 10- 12 dollars. I just arrived for dinner on the first day, but I didn't order the menu after reading it several times. I looked at my husband and asked if I could run away. I'm really used to walking around Southeast Asia. Seeing the price of this beautiful killing knife, I am full for a second. But I got used to it after eating it for a few days. Well, otherwise you can starve to death in Palau!

Counting, including organic wine+eating+playing, Palau's per capita is probably 12k, and 12k refers to staying in a cost-effective hotel, not a trip to a local tyrant who likes to eat seafood and doesn't play parachuting helicopters. Well, that's how I played this time.

Don't expect too much when staying in a hotel in Palau. Maybe you will be surprised.

If you have been to high-end Madai, you have been to Thailand with unparalleled cost performance. Well, hotels in Palau may make your flesh ache again. 1One night in 50 yuan can only be the level of domestic high-end express hotels. Why? Palau is relatively backward ~ Palau has few hotels and few things.

When Palau dived in Weibo and said that China people threw China cigarette cases into the water, Bo Huang lived in Baiyue. The highest hotel in Palau is the Pacific PPR Hotel. It is also the best place for Palau to watch the sunset.

I stayed at the Leisenring Hotel this time. Advantages: It just opened last year and it is very new. The newly arrived swimming pool has just been repaired and has not been drained. The room is clean, too, much better than I expected. Disadvantages, so fucking far. One-day tour is free for one person, and 10 for one person.

Personally, I suggest that the hotel be booked in downtown kroll. Because I am scheduled to arrive at the airport, I know the sadness. Although it's not far. It only takes ten or twenty minutes to drive downtown. However, it is these ten or twenty minutes that are full of blood and tears.

There are really not many hotels in Palau. If you consider booking tickets, it is basically impossible. Many hotels don't accept the temporary booking of individual travelers, but they all book in advance, and the price of individual travelers will be high. So it is better to recommend machine wine together, and the price is actually more cost-effective. Pay attention to buying a hotel with breakfast, otherwise it is very inconvenient to eat breakfast. Palau is a commercial street, and it takes 15 minutes to walk, haha. Don't even think about going out and eating casually number

Go to the red circle in the picture, near the city center. What's the best position over there, near the dock? First push.

Hotels with their own docks:

Highest level: PPR Pacific

Cost-effective ratio: Baiyue room facilities are slightly old and backward.

A rising star's new hotel: Half Moon Bay

Needless to say, people have to carpool to pick up this and that on the pier road. You can have breakfast or make up in the hotel, and someone will pick you up after you leave the boat! Yes, that's it. This time, I envy to see our ship pick up guests in half a month, and then pick up guests from the Pacific Ocean.

In addition, Palau holiday is also newly opened, which is opened by China people without adapter, and the voltage and plug are also available in China, with sea view and good cost performance, and it is opposite Baiyue. You can think about it.

In the best position:

Palau Hotel, Palau Hotel

Boda is also the tallest building in Palau, with 5 floors above ground and 1 floor underground. A 6-storey tall building is extremely dazzling in Palau.

On high luxury goods:

Pacific Ocean

Hotel Seguire

These two hotels are the real Palau international 5-star hotels. Others say they are 5-star hotels, so don't be fresh. =

New hotel:

The local five-star bay is said to be very advanced in looking at pictures, and it feels ordinary when you arrive at the hotel. I have never lived there, so I will try it next time.

Ocean Star Economy Hotel

Ailai forest is the place where I live this time, and the location is too fucking off! But the teppanyaki in the hotel is delicious.

Economy Hotel: Nemo's Home

Don't stay, don't ask me why, just go and see, it's not as good as domestic township guest houses. Of course, this is my irresponsible judgment from the outside. I didn't go to other people's rooms.

Many travel agencies in Rihui Hotel sell hot and cheap, claiming to have the best mangrove trail in Palau. Don't believe it either. You bought a calling card in this place, and the traffic may not even have a 3g signal, which is far away. There is also the Ailai Club, which claims to have the largest water park in Palau and is also near the airport. It's a long way to eat and live this time, and I don't want to suffer any more. hello

Resort, I personally like it, really, the literary style is too suitable for people like me who like to take pictures, but it is expensive and far away. So he didn't survive.

I don't have any verbal commitment now. I'll find a picture of the hotel and post it for your reference.

minimum duration

According to local people, Palau has no obvious rainy season and dry season. Because the rain in Palau comes and goes quickly. Palau is a place that produces typhoons, but it is also a wonderful flower without the typhoon itself.

According to the encyclopedia, the dry season in Palau is from June 165438+ 10 to April of the following year, and the rest is rainy season.

Palau is called the land of rainbows, which probably means that rain comes and goes quickly. But I didn't see the rainbow this time. Every day is blue sky and white clouds, and it doesn't rain at all. March-April is the best month for diving in Palau.

Here comes the point!

When is the cheapest time to go to Palau all year round?

The answer is: Generally speaking, the off-season is 4.1-24 per year; 5.7-6.30; 10.7- 12. 18.

Palau's tourist season completely follows the holidays in China. New Year's Day is the peak, and winter and summer vacations are not cheap. The price of machine wine is usually twice that of off-season.

Basic information language

Palauan. English

Wen will be fine. Palau has many restaurants and supermarkets in China, as well as many imported China foods, such as Laoganma, stinky tofu and instant noodles, which are all necessary for travel.

money

Dollars.

It is suggested to change it in China in advance. Or, there is a local ATM to withdraw money. UnionPay, MasterCard, visa, etc. Everyone can withdraw money, and the bank will charge a handling fee. Visa and master credit cards can also be used locally, but there are few places to use them and there is a handling fee. Alternatively, local restaurants and local restaurants can accept RMB. Of course, this is the most uneconomical form, and you will usually be charged an exchange rate difference of at least 5 percentage points higher than the normal exchange rate. If your domestic bank is changed to 6.3 and you go to the local area, you will have to settle with the exchange difference of 6.8. In short, it is recommended to buy US dollars before going to Palau (personal suggestion).

Equation of time; equation?of?time;?time?difference

And China time difference 1 hour, faster than us 1 hour. For example, 8 o'clock in Beijing and 9 o'clock in Palau.

visa

Palau visa on arrival, free of charge. Passports valid for more than 6 months can enter Palau and stay for 30 days.

However, everyone needs to pay a departure tax of $65,438+000. If you buy your own air ticket to Palau, you should give it to Palau Customs when you leave the country. If you buy wine for charter flights, you must pay it to the charter operators together with the air tickets in advance.

Although no diplomatic relations have been established, Palau's landing visa policy is very loose, so there is no need to worry about not entering the country.

Immigration ordinance

1. You can't bring more than the equivalent of10,000 dollars in cash, or you will be confiscated.

You can only take one cigarette and one bottle of wine.

3. Dried meat, fruits, plants, betel nuts and other foods are prohibited.

4. It is best to bring the medicine with English instructions printed on the package, or the medicine that can explain the effect, whether it will be missed.

When we passed through the customs, we did see that everyone's boxes had been opened and rummaged, but I don't know why, the chubby black guy I met when I passed through the customs just looked at me and asked me, is this your first time to Palau? I said yes. Come and dive. He said it was fun. Then, wave me away. I looked puzzled, and the little brother on the same plane who was turned over next to me looked puzzled. He probably doesn't know why only he was overturned. My husband said, I guess it's because I'm here for the first time, and I'm sure I'll be honest and won't bring alcohol and tobacco.

Network &; connect

Palau is really a pit! ! !

I'm a telecom operator, and Palau can't roam the Internet. It is said that Unicom is not good either. It can be moved. I forgot how much it costs every day, but I bought a Palau flow card at that time. I calculated that it was more cost-effective than buying local telephone traffic!

I bought 2g local traffic for 10. Does the meat hurt? I'm hurt!

If you don't want to spend money on wifi, congratulations, your dream will be shattered. Palau's wifi can't even be sent out in Weibo. And only the lobby has a signal, and there is basically no wifi signal in the room.

In addition, Palau's network is particularly affected by the weather. If there were no clouds in Wan Li, the internet speed would be much faster today. However, if it's cloudy or rainy, well, it's over. The purchased 4g card has no network.

My husband still has a heavy responsibility to work every day. It's nice to have a full vacation in Palau. Wow, haha.

Power?Supply?

Officially, Palau's power outlets are the same as those in the United States, and the voltage is 1 10 volts.

Long like this:

But personally, Palau's outlet voltage is very chaotic, some hotels are American standards, and some are the same as domestic ones. I prepared a conversion plug, but it didn't work. The Leisenring Hotel I stayed in, no matter the toilets, plugs or furniture, all came from China, so the prepared plugs were totally unnecessary.

But most of them are American standards. If you are not sure whether the hotel is a domestic standard plug of 220v, it is recommended to bring a conversion plug. A treasure, milk tea husband there, are sold, very convenient.

Long like this:

sensitive

Coconut crab, mangrove crab, nail fish, bat soup.

Coconut crab 60 yuan is about a catty. It hurts too much. I didn't eat. Bat soup is really not interested, and I didn't eat it either. Bat soup is not expensive, and 35 yuan has a piece left and right. It is said to be delicious.

Mangrove crabs like it. A few times. The price is between 25 and 35 pounds. The big one can weigh 4 kg, and the small one is less than 2 kg 1 kg. The meat quality is actually similar. Mangrove crab tastes like killing East Horse Golden Crab, but the price is still a sky higher than that of Malay.

I also ate meat. It's delicious, thick and sweet. Personally, I think it's better than mussels.

Mangrove crabs were fierce when they were alive. They bared their teeth and gestured to the chef who caught them. Don't touch their hands. Take a big hedge to control them and end their short crab life. Mangrove crab is a kind of crab that grows in the mangrove area of Palau. The meat is tender and extremely delicious, so don't miss it for pot friends who are pursuing cost performance.
