Bohol Thread 17

[etherealmaan]

@ ivyn, ang flight namin August 22 - 25. Naghahanap na ako ng magandang place to stay. Meron na ba kayong napiling resort? May nakita akong deal sa cashcashpinoy: http://www.cashcashpinoy.com/service/3d-2n-romantic-getaway-to-bohol-for-two. May nakapagstay na ba dito sa Natura Vista? Wala silang reviews na hindi sa website nila e.

Sa tingin niyo mga sis ilang days pwede ang sulit na bakasyon sa Bohol? Okay na ba ang 2 days?s

^In my opinion, 2-3 days will be enough. Day 1: Panglao/ Balicasag Island, depende kung ano prefer nyo, beach or diving. Day 2: A whole day tour for all the tourist spots (Chocolate hills, tarsiers, Loboc, etc..)

You can also squeeze in some time for the Sui Slide in Danao, which is said to be the longest zip line in the Philippines (480 meters long to be exact). Medyo malayo nga lang to from Tagbilaran City. Prepare to pay 2000+ to a rented vehicle o isingit nyo nalang sa day tour nyo on the second day (which may sacrifice other spots naman).

My friends ziplined at Loboc Adventure park. malapit sa Loboc floating restaurant, makikita niyo nga yung mga nagzizipline sa dulo ng cruise. sabi nung mga tao don, konti lang daw difference nung sa danao at sa loboc. mga 20meters lang daw.

hi mga sis! sana may makatulong  plan ko kaseng itinerary namin ng hubby ko is MNL- Bohol- Cebu-Bacolod-MNL. baka may pupunta rin ng march 7/8-9 sa Bohol sabay tayo sa tour, 2 lang kase kame ni hubby eh.
1. If after lunch ang dating namin ng Bohol,  ma-aaccommodate pa ba kame ng mga tour guides like Kuya Tatsky and RJ?  ano pwede gawin pagdating  don ng halfday lang?
2.  DOT accredited daw po ba sila Kuya Tatsky and RJ?  Pwede po mahingi number or website ni Kuya Tatsky?   (Nakuha ko na yung site ni Kuya RJ)
3. Mas makakatipid ba ako kung one way  ticket lang ng ferry to Cebu ang kukunin ko or same lang talaga halos ang rate nila ng roundtrip and one way dahil pinopromo nila yung return ticket?

Ang lapit na ng planned trip ko, wala pa ako nabbook.    

TIA

Feedback lang po sa mga nakapagtry na ng mga tours c/o PAUL INCON of www.inconboholtours.webs.com. Ok ba yung full package nla na with accommodation, sulit ba and sila ba mamimili ng hotel or we get to choose? Or meron ba na pwde magpacustomize ng tour? parang hindi ko kasi masyadong type na puntahan lahat ng places na normally included sa countryside tour.

Salamat po sa mga magrereply!

kami 6 days kami ng bestfriend ko sa Bohol pero bitin pa din kami.. pero madami din kasi kaming relatives ko na binisita dun eh..

The Plunge mga sis try niyo sa Danao Aventure Park, parang bungee jumping.. nakakalokoka akala ko mamatay na ako, pero worth it! also yung caving nila, na enjoy namin super.. ang galing nga mga tour guide! 

uwi ulit kami ng family ko sa May..

Just got back from Bohol last Sunday.  I love Bohol! ^__^ The people are really nice and the activity I enjoyed the most was the ATV experience. It's a bit expensive at 400 pesos for 30 minutes but it was worth it. May practice session before the guide will let you drive sa highway and sa may rough, back roads. I think lampas na kami sa 30 minutes kasi ang tagal ko sa practice session, hehe.  Maganda din ang view ng Chocolate Hills while driving an ATV. Try nyo din mga sis!

I also recommend Bohol Bee Farm if you want a place where you can relax.  The place has a swimming pool and may mga jacuzzi around the Kinabuhing Bohol area. Regarding the food, malaki ang serving kasi I ordered honeyglazed chicken and 3 chicken ang nasa plate!  I was also surprised that they upgraded us for free from the Barn room to the Beehive Suite room near the restaurant. However, the disadvantage I saw is that medyo malayo ang place sa ibang establishments.  Kailangan mag rent pa ng sasakyan papunta sa ibang lugar and the service of Bohol Bee Farm is  a bit expensive at 800 pesos roundtrip.  Naghire na lang kami ng tricycle papunta sa Panglao Island Resort for our day tour.

1. Hi sis! If after lunch dating nyo,parang pwede naman pero medyo bitin. Around 1 1/2 hours papunta Chocolate Hills tapos allot ng time pag-akyat sa 200+ steps. Then madadaanan pagbalik nyo mga sites like Tarsier Sanctuary, Butterfly Garden, ShipHaus, Baclayon Museum at Blood Compact site. Kung mag Loboc river cruise and lunch kayo, mga around 1 hour alloted time dun.
 
2. We booked through Kuya Naldix (brother of Kuya Tatsky ata). If you want, I can give you the number of Kuya Naldix sis. His countryside tour offer is 2,000 pesos. Our guide and driver for the day was Kuya Benjie and sobrang mabait at maasikaso.

3. I'm not sure regarding this sis. If may website, check mo na lang para sure ka kung saan mas nakakatipid.

Kaya mo yan sis! Enjoy Bohol!

sayang sis hindi pala tayo magaabot sa bohol. august 29-31 kami. wala pa nga kaming hotel na pagstayan dun eh, wala pa din itenerary. kaya basa lang muna ako dito kung san sila mga ngpupunta na magandang spot sa bohol

hehe yaan mo, bibilisan ko magblog ng bohol trip ko last feb16. konti lang naman yung changes, isa na dun yung wala ng buffet sa bee farm.

[arianne_143]

Hi mga sis! I am going to Bohol on June14-17 with my partner. I already inquired kay Kuya Tatsky for Sea and Island Tour on June 15. Kaso 2 lang kami ni partner. 1,400/ boat bigay niya (since galing kami sa alona)... inclusions are dolphin watching, snorkeling in balicasag and island hopping in virgin island with free snorkeling mas and guide is 100 per head. walang lunch though pero i think meron naman sa balicasag.

in case you want to join us. PM me

[thebratinella]

post mo na, sis.    natuwa ako sa pictures ng food sa bohol bee farm. iniisip ko nga if from the airport, diretso kami dun for the daytour. 4 days kasi kami sa bohol tapos no sea tour kasi kasama daughter namin.

[rexyloise]

Yey, i've already booked BBC's summer package gardenside room, triple sharing for march 14-16. I just need to pay the 50% dp to confirm our booking.

Sana lang ma-confirm nila sa kitchen that we can use their microwave oven. Dilemma kasi namin is yung pag-sterilize ng feeding bottles ng kids. For moms out there who bring babies on thier trip, can you share how you sterlize the feeding bottles?

[skylar-ddm]

@ sis karla, thank you sis for replying.  ang ganda ng pic nyo ng ATV,  talagang you drove around the chocolate hills ba?  sige sis, please send me Kuya NAldix's number.  Thank you!

[karla]

^ you're welcome sis. bale may ATV station na medyo malapit lang sa Chocolate Hills viewing point kaya around the area na din. Sent you a pm sis.

glad to have been back to Bohol / Panglao, mas na enjoy ko ang Panglao with our 2nd visit.
My friend and I are on a tight budget, we stayed in a fan room at Chill out guest house for 1k per night, ubos na mga murang aircon room along alona area like citadel alona , casa nova garden etc, mura din ang aircon sa chill out guest house for only 1,300 pero fully booked narin kasi, with chillout fan/aircon room u have your own porch na, the room is not small and bago pa sya, last nov. 2011 lang yata nag open, medyo mahabang lakaran lang from chill out to alona (10 minutes leisure walk)

here's our itinerary:

Feb. 23: tricycle ride to Panglao / Bohol Beach Club = 300 (space is good for 2 only, masikip na actually for 2, comfortable parin naman in fairness and kahit tanghali hinde ganun kainit, 30 minutes ang ride)

Bohol Beach Club Day tour (weekdays) = 350 (150 facilities and 200 is consumable, day tour is til 9pm)
= very worth it and sulit, mas maganda talaga beach ng bbc and their facilities.                 
sarap din mag relax sa hammock and pool area.

tricycle ride from BBC to Alona area = 100 (50 per person)
                       if you need tricycle service, i have the contact number of d tryc driver, just pm me
Dinner at Pyramid along alona beach = spent 250 per person
Drinks at Alona Vida Bar = spent 120 per person - 60 per bottle ang tanduay ice            
           
other option for day tour is at Eskaya = 1000 per person (next visit ko nalang to, hehe)

Feb. 24:

Boat Rental c/o Dodong = 1,500
- dolphin watching, balicasag island, optional snorkel with turtles, virgin island - bohol is so blessed with these wonderful islands, especially yung Virgin island

from waking up at 5am to start the sea tour, we arrived 5pm at Chillout guest house, kami na siguro pinaka matagal na nag seatour with kuya Dodong.
 
tryc ride from alona to chill out is 10 per peson.

we're too exhausted to have dinner so we slept in early and nakatapid in a way, haha!

Feb. 25 - breakfast at Alona Vida spent 250 per person - not sulit - the prosciutto pizza and some red pasta is totally bland in taste, i had to put it so much hot sauce, salt, white and black pepper but to no avail hinde ma retoke ang taste.

Lunch at Cafe Lawis besides Handumanan Church in Poblacion, Dauis Panglao - 300 tryc ride from Alona.
- sarap ng chocolate souffle, winner!!!
- winner din ang setting ng Cafe Lawis, ganda pang Photo Opp and to cap off our vacation.

Tryc ride from Cafe Lawis to the Airport = 100

Terminal fee of Tagbilaran Airport is only 20 pesos per person - ang init, liit ng airport, kaya pala mura, hehe
