^hehe.....halos yan din ang breakfast namin - rice, sinangag w/corned beef, egg, yung veggie nila konti pang gulay at chopsuey na  then bread w/dari cream, watermelon, juice at coffee.  yung egg lang ang binabago nila every day.

kindly say hello to him from 'Rundolph' (my brother kasi siya nag-inquire kay kuya)...hehe

Hehe... Sige...

Naku sis, korak sa gulay... Aw... Now, egg na nilaga then longanisa na super liit. Haha...

Badtrip ako yesterday, nagLBM ako, at sinumpong during pa man din ng Nasa Loboc River lunch na kami. Ending chix and rice lang nakain ko. Para akong diet... Hays ang sarap pa man din ng mga seafoods... 3 kami kumain ng pusit na malalaki nung gabi, dun kami natira. Yun 600 package ng dumaluan1. Yung grilled platter nila. So ako, sister ko at mom ko. Yun hubby ko at father di naman nagLBM kasi sila lang di kumain ng pusit... kakaasar talaga....

[~tiArA~]

Hello po, parecommend naman po ng itinerary for 5d/4n. No countryside tour na kasi we are done na with that the last time.

What we are thinking was:
Day 1: ETA Bohol 2:30PM -- beach lang
Day 2: Danao?? Ang mahal naman kasi. E 2 lang kami So parang malabo to. If may makasabay kame mas ok.
Day 3: Sea tour
Day 4: Panglao Tour
Day 5: ETD Bohol 3PM so beach lang talaga tong day na to.

Our Days 2-4 are interchangeable naman since sana may makasabay kame sa Danao. Kung wala, baka d na kami mag Danao talaga So wala na naman gagawin sa Day 2

Help!

TIA!

HI mga sis... need your advice... me & my hubby will travelling with our 4 y/o and a senior citizen

Jan 9 - 12 kami nasa Bohol.. based from the things I've read here.. paki-comment naman sa travel plans namin:

Jan 9 -
11AM arrival..
have lunch first in the city?? or check-in early if the BBF would allow
check-in at Bohol Bee Farm at 2PM..
Chill at BBF

Jan 10
Panglao Tour -
Would you recommend checking out at BBF tapos dalhin na namin gamit namin? oks lang kaya sa tour operators yun?
Check in at DBR2

Jan 11
Countryside Tour

Jan 12
Aside from my kiddo playing on the beach/pool, meron pa kaya kami pwedeng puntahan? O buy na lang pasalubongs??
Flight back to Manila is 3PM, dapat by 12PM check-out na kami and on our way to airport?

San ko kaya isingit yung PINR tour? hehe

thanks mga  sis!

[jhez]

^sis, eto suggestion ko...
 
Day1 - BBF kasi tahimik nga pero hindi sya malapit sa beach. pero madami nagsabi na masarap food. Mahal yata kasi organic. Not sure kasi dumalaw lang naman kami dun last stop namin ng countryside tour.

Day2 - countryside tour (sabay na dito buying of pasalubong)

Day3 - Bohol beach club or PINR then relax sa beach. Sea tour din pwede kaso di ko sure kung may nakatry na magdala ng toddler sa mismong snorkeling... Mahihirapan siguro to...

Day4 - stay sa beach ulit dumaluan... Pahinga na kayo then onting ikot sa beach na lang. Last picture etc...

Yung day2 and 3 pwede pagpalitin.... Sa mga gamit ok lang dalahin na lahat. Wala prob yun ilalagay lang naman sa likod ng car yung gamit....

POV ko lang sis ha, kaw pa rin decide on this one...

Nga pala, wag masyado impulsive sa pag-buy pasalubong. Mga murang bilihan:

Peanut Kisses - P120/pack of 16pcs Python
Kalamay - dunno exactly san mura pero nakuha ng mama ko P25 or 30 yun sa bao na. sa python din.
Keychains - Hanging bridge 7pcs for P100
Tshirts - Hinagdanan Cave P99 - P120 (yun P99 binebenta sa hanging bridge ng P120 then yung 120 sa hinagdanan P150 sa hanging bridge)

[mama squeak!]

^^sis, you can combine both the countryside and Panglao tour in a day. Start the countryside tour at 8AM that means check-out na kayo. So in essence you save one day to just relax. Here's another IT you can look at:

D1/Jan 9   Arrive Tagbilaran at 11AM. Who will be picking you up? If its the resort rep, go straight to BBF and have their buffet lunch while waiting to check-in. If DIY yung punta nyo sa BBF, either go straight to the resort or have lunch in town. But what about your bags? Kaya ba na bitbitin nyo while having lunch in town?

D 2/Jan 10   Check-out early. Either leave your bags at BBF for safekeeping to be picked up after the tour or take your bags with you. Kung malaki naman ang space ng sasakyan nyo, take them with you na lang.

Countryside tour starts at 8AM. If this is your regular countryside tour, expect it to finish around 2-3PM. On the way to DBR, you can do the Panglao tour since dun naman talaga kayo ihahatid. By the way, BBF and DBR2 are located in Panglao island. The regular Panglao tour is short lang naman. The usual sights na dadalhin kayo is the Dauis church and Hinagdanan cave. No need na sa BBF kasi nanggaling na kayo dun.

Check-in at DBR2 around 5-6PM. Make sure if you follow this  IT, you have to inform DBR2 na late check-in kayo kasi manggagaling kayo ng tour. Baka kasi they will release your room kung wala kang advise.

D3/Jan 11  Relax lang and enjoy the beach. But if you're still up to it, you can do the sea tour/dolphin watching but you have to wake up early as it starts at 5AM. Otherwise relax by the beach na lang kayo. I'm sure mas ma-appreciate ito ng kid mo.

In the late afternoon, you can go to town to buy your pasalubong or pwede din namili ka na in one of the sights na napuntahan nyo during your countryside tour. 

D4/Jan 12  Relax ka lang by the beach. I don't suggest buying your pasalubong last minute kasi dapat by this time naka-empake na kayo and ready to go. Check-out by 12NN. Lunch at the resort and tambay na lang sa beach until your pick up to the airport. You have to be at the airport 1 and a half hours before your flight so alis kayo ng resort ng 1PM.

^^^ sis, we stayed at BBF  I think they will allow naman early check-in kung available yung room, ask mo nalang sila, mabilis naman sila mag-reply eh. If not, mag-lunch na lang muna kayo dun.  Hindi kami nag buffet, I think may required number of guest na yun eh, not sure though.  Pero meron sila platter, good for 3 lang, pero ang dami ng serving, 4 adults kami, sobra pa samin. Forgot how much yung platter, basta total ng bill namin nasa around  1200 pesos good for 4 na yun.

Kami sis naisingit na namin yung PINR sa countryside tour. Bale nagpaabot na kami ng medyo gabi, tapos dun na kami nag dinner. Ano ba pupuntahan sa Panglao tour?? Yung hinagdanan at yung beach? Kami kasama na yun all in one day eh PINR is near lang sa hinagdananan.

Yung pasalubong, naman nasa mga tourist spots rin so kami, dun na rin bumibili eh.

[barefoot_taka]

sis megan cat how much ang e.a.t. danao tour kay kuya naldix?

[liezeltraveller]

i will going to bohol next year.

[jhez]

Meron na pala adventure sa loboc like danao. Yun parang skyride nila. Di kasi namin tinry pero kita sya sa loboc river during our lunch.

[mama squeak!]

Last time I was at BBF with my parents meron silang lunch buffet for 2 persons pero yung serving nila is good for 3. Kaya what we did we got the buffet for 2 and nagdagdag lang ng isang ala carte. Busog-busog na kaming tatlo nun.

[ayanlanz]

^^yes meron nga po zipline na dumadaan across loboc river.
madadaanan nyo po yung site kung papunta kayo ng Chocolate Hills, Butterfly Garden, Hanging Bridge part ng Bohol.

when yun sis? Last October lang kami, may buffet pa rin, pero may required number of person na, parang minimum 11 yata. Di ko lang sure 

[mama squeak!]

^We're both correct. Binago lang nila yung description sa buffet for 2 to platter for 2 but the food is the same as the buffet they serve. The difference between the platter and the buffet, the former fixed servings while the buffet is refillable. Pero in fairness marami yung servings nila for 2 pwede na for 3 actually.

For those interested in BBF's lunch buffet/platter menu, these are the latest prices:

For 2 persons       -  Php550/pax
For 3-5 persons    -  Php500/pax
For 6-10 persons  -  Php450/pax
For 11-20 persons - Php420/pax  **minimum 11 for the lunch buffet

Plus VAT pa yan ha.

 

[bunso]

^ ah lunch buffet lang pala yung may minimum 11 person

Sis,iba yata yung price ng buffet at platter, actually pati yung food.  Kasi hindi per person yung bayad nung inorder naming platter.   Tapos konti lang yung klase ng food, sa natatandaan ko, grilled marlin, grilled pusit,grilled shrimp, lumpia sariwa, then seafood soup, choice of organic salad or fresh fruit, at with complimentary cab-cab. 800 yata yun, (makaklimutin kasi ako. LOL) with rice na rin yun, bale nag-add nalang kami ng drinks.  Ganun rin ba sa buffet nila?

[mama squeak!]

^sis, not sure what you ordered but those are the updated prices/info given to me by BBF. Same lang yung food na sini-serve nila ang difference lang is the platter fixed servings while buffet pwede refillable. That's for their lunch menu ha iba pa daw yung dinner menu nila. Di ko na lang tinanong.

I make it a point to always eat there every time I come visit my parents. Plus my Mom always brings her guests there for their buffet/platter menu. Best seller parati yung organic salad with the different flower petals and the honey mustard dressing (for those mahilig sa healthy food). Their seafood lasagna is good too. Lahat na yata masarap   

[riandrew]

^ so do I. a Bohol trip is never complete without dining at BBF!
i'll be revisiting Bohol by February, so it's time for my favorite organic food again! 

[prettybarbie]

naeengganyo na talaga ko pumunta sa bohol, sayang kasi nakapag book na ulit ako sa boracay pero naisip ko baka pede ko pa rin naman isali ang bohol sa trip ko.

iniisip ko from Manila- Caticlan- Cebu- Tagbilaran- Manila

okay lang ba ang byahe from cebu to tagbilaran.... komportable ba yung supercat?

[mama squeak!]

^Yes, it's just an hour and 45 minutes. 

[jhez]

^^we tried na cebu-tagbilaran. Ok naman, di maalon and mabilis lang byahe. Parang eroplano lang din. di rin nakakatakot, along the way may mga dolphins na nagtatalunan. Umuulan pa yun trip namin.
