Bicol Region - Sorsogon, Albay, Camsur trip (thread II)

[cerenity_18]

sa Naga, you can visit the church for Our Lady of Penafrancia, CWC, visit museums, hot spring, etc.

sa Albay, you can try Mt Mayon adventure, lignon hill, legazpi boulevard, embarcadero, try the beaches, etc.

sis you think keri namin tong mapuntahan in 2 days? May 19-20 lang kase kami sa Bicol eh 

and san me affordable na inn or hotel sa naga or legaspi ( vista al or ellis ecotel?)

plan namin bus or PNR? we wanna experience both pero convenient ba kaya pareho?

sis yung Rawis malayo ba yun?
anong tawag sa hot springs?sa naga ba yun? sorry po ang daming tanong...Thanks in advance

we're booked for legazpi on may 25-27(3d/2n). we'll be staying at the oriental hotel, legazpi. i'm unsure how to go there from the airport, although i just sent them an email, waiting for reply pa. easy lang ba to commute? based on the map naman  the airport is very near the hotel: http://legazpi.theorientalhotels.com/location/

for the ATV, is this part of the legazpi adventure? do we reserve the tour na now, or when we arrive na?

i'm not sure if we can go to a beach pa, are there any nice ones ba in legazpi?

my bf didn't enjoy the ATV in boracay, so we're kinda wary if we should give this ATV another go in bicol.

thanks so much in advance.

Mga sis, saan located ang Starbucks Naga? Is it near SM City Naga? TIA

[foxy_girlfriend]

^^ I love the ATV in legazpi as in sa riverbed kayo dadaan. may nadaanan pa kaming natumbang sasakyan hehee. The view at the end point is amazing! Then you get to drink sweet buko and do ziplining. In our case we didn't have to reserve kasi off peak yung panahon. I'm not sure ngayong smmer.

[moonstar_004]

^is this at the foot of lignon hill? i definitely wanna do ATV, it's so expensive na lang yata, like P1,800/per person!

[foxy_girlfriend]

yes sis. sa entrance ng lignong hill don kami inofferan.

[moonstar_004]

^thank you thank you for the reply!

^sis you might like to check tips from our fellow GTer during her Sorsogon escapade. I hope she doesnt mind me posting her link. Anyway, are you looking for places to visit at Sorsogon? Try Bulusan Volcano, Subic Beach, Matnog, hot spring, etc.

[rizzie1026]

thanks  for the reply chicqmom. we've decided to avail of the misibis day tour instead of butanding watching. gusto nga nung iba caramoan, fear ko lang kasi is baka maulan or may storm signal pag punta namin.we're keeping our fingers crossed na lang. hope mister sun will cooperate with us

hi mga sis!

may nakapagstay na ba sa inyo sa the oriental hotel in legaspi. i know sis moonstar_004 will be staying there.

i was wondering mahirap kaya magcommute papunta at pabalik dun?if ever punta kami ng lignon hill and cagsawa, ganun din kaya magtrike din kami?

TIA!

[whatswithjuly]

anyone bound to bicol this weekend?

[moonstar_004]

^we're in legazpi now, staying at oriental hotel. the hotel's new pa, it's nice naman. but if you don't have private vehicle, medyo hassle lang. tricycle fares are quite expensive.

we loved the atv. walang-walang sinabi ang atv ng boracay, haha. everyone who goes to legazpi should experience the atv. we climbed the lava rock also, the view was spectacular sa helipad!

in my opinion, legazpi should improve with their tourism. walang standard fares sa tricycles for one. some of the tricycle drivers are not aware pa of some of the known places(like DJC halo-halo, sabi sa amin it was inside the mall, nasa labas pala).

but the view of mayon anywhere(including by our poolside) more than made up for the disappointing experiences. ganda talaga.

mukhang hindi matutuloy ang punta ko sa july 12-14, tagulan waaah sayang.. (

[patchuchai]

mga sis both may promo sa airphil 88 and sa ensogo ang hotel ellis, maganda po ba dito at malapit po ba ito sa city proper, balak kasi namin kumuha ng package tour, although 3 lang naman kami, 2 ng sister ko at 1 pamangkin ko, any suggestions? saka po ok ba ang february mapuntahan ang mayon volcano? tia

[chiqmom]

^hi sis. nasa city proper and st ellis.

mukhang hindi matutuloy ang punta ko sa july 12-14, tagulan waaah sayang.. (

super init dito sis ngayon sa gabi lang maulan.

[patchuchai]

hi mga sis,

i've been backreading, we will be in legaspi on dec 8-dec 10, maulan pa rin ba ito? wala lang bigla akong nagpabook..hehe. mga sis since 2 adult and 1 child (age 5) lang kami, we are planning to stay sa hotel ellis lalo na kapag may misibis bay package but i'm still waiting magka promo  . dito parang walang package tour unlike sa bohol at puerto princessa. while reading,  malalapit lang kasi ang mga places, pero incase kasi walang misibis bay day tour, may nakapag banggit dito ng cwc, pano sis makapunta doon coming from legaspi? hindi ba kaya ng day tour doon mga sis? saka sa isang 5yrs old anong magandang gawin doon at how much naman kaya? so far iyan pa lang ang katanungan ko..more to come..hehe

tia
