While not very many people on DDF have been to Palau/Koror, it's on many member's bucket lists so I thought I would make this thread to both compile information about the Island for anyone else who may be planning on going there in the future, and ask my own trip planning questions to anyone here who's been there. I'll try to make a wiki with as much pertinent information as I can find as long as what I think is important to know once I get back.
Dan's TR can be found hereWith that being said, here are a few questions, mainly for
@Dan and
@AJK, but if anyone else has been there, please chime in as well.
1. Hotel recommendations- I know you guys weren't exactly that happy with the hotel you stayed at, do you think it's worth spending more for a nicer place while there? Does location on the island matter?
2. Does anyone have any information about Sams tours? It seems like you guys were pretty happy with Impac, should I just stick with them?
3. I'm going to basically have 2 full days on the island, (flying in at 8:15 PM on Monday, flying out late Wed night/early Thur night at 1:45 AM) I'm thinking of doing the tour on Tue which leaves a full day on Wed for other activities, any recommendations from your research?
4. Do you remember what kind of kosher products were available at the grocery store? I'm trying to figure out what I'll have to make sure I bring form HNL and what I can rely on getting on the island.
Thanks!
