Package deals from Shun Tak
[QUOTE=Shimano;1708074]Reason why I was thinking going to Shun Tak is so I can buy those sauna packages. Is it not worth it? Also, any suggestions on daytime saunas? And at places like Eighteen or Familia Nobre, how long can I stay there?[/QUOTE]It has been a couple years since I've purchased a sauna package from one of the shops in Shun Tak, but as things stay largely the same there, I would say that I never noticed any big savings (we're probably talking HKD 200 or so) by purchasing a sauna package from one of the three or four shops that trade in the deal. (That was one of my wonderful introductions to mongering, seeing the shopfront posters of beautiful women with the word "SEX" in foot-tall type; I knew then and there that I was in a new, magical world).
At one of the shops there was one particular gentlemen who spoke English well (I have long forgotten his name, sorry) and is very helpful -- to the point of escorting you to the ferry ramp. The downside, for a short trip, is that you're locked in to one particular establishment and typically there is the trouble of finding the tour operator in Macau to pick up your return ferry ticket. Not a big deal, really, but considering the savings are scant anyhow, nothing much to recommend them, either.
First Asia sauna experience in about a month
This will be my first mongering venture to Asia. Traveled extensively in Brazil and Europe.
I would like to have the full sauna experience. Shower girl, thigh massage, pool, etc.
I've read reports where there are no shower girls, etc at certain times and places.
What is the best time to go to say FN or Rio to get the full experience and choose from the best line-up?
Thanks,
CB
The Time to hit the Saunas

CB[/QUOTE]I always go to the suanas between 7:30 pm and 9 pm. Generally the saunas fill up with customers later, but I like to be the first guy with the prime time girl of my choosing. The prime time line up shift begins around 7pm and the girls work until 3am when the morning shift comes on duty.
I almost always arrive in Macau on Sunday and depart on Friday. Not only are the hotels less crowded and much less expensive than on the weekend, but the saunas are less crowded and the girls less worked. A win win for me.
