BORACAY (THREAD 28)

[grasyia]

Thanks mga sis! Base sa mga kwento nyo mukhang safe naman. Sana pagdating ko dun lumakas loob ko. Good luck sa akin.

mga sis tanong lang ulit, ano ba mas magastos, boracay o palawan? gusto ko [textspeak!] boracay si hubby naman palawan eh nakabudget kami TIA

[cynth_pink00]

^ it would all depend sis on the type of accommodation you will get and the restos you will be dining in.  I believe mas marami lang choices in Bora than in Palawan. 


Planning of going back for Holyweek. Crossing my fingers we get to find good airfare rates. Hay why is Boracay so addicting kase?

@sis grasyia, pag medyo pumapasok yung water and you're uncomfortable na just tell the diver he'll put more air sa helmet para bumaba yung water..it is safe naman talaga, pero yun nga kung ikaw yung tipong di makahinga in a closed room like Owen in Secret Garden (and me  ) no na talaga to..

what time po kaya pinaka maagang byahe ng boat from boracay to caticlan port?

[fd_lm1819]

@lady czarina: oo nga hapon kunin ko byahe pabalik ng kalibo, hanggang anong oras ba ang byahe ng jetty port?

sis, 9-10pm may byahe pa pero sabi ng van na nasakyan namin minsan daw till 12mn meron.  it depends din sa weather, pag hindi maganda minsan till 8pm lang.  kami we took the 8pm ride pa kalibo.

BAD EXPERIENCE

was in boracay jan 4-7. but since early flight kami on the 7th, we opted to stay in kalibo.  may kasama kasi kami kids and kuya april helped us looked for a hotel near airport.  ok naman si april, he has been very nice and helpful.  nung offer niya sa akin yung private van, i told him na we'll be taking the regular van and confirmed yung hotel booking lang.  sabi niya pagbaba namin ng boat madami naman daw kami masasakyan na lang na van sa terminal.

sa terminal, we got the boat + van which is 200 per head. pagbaba namin ng boat may nag assist naman sa amin.  on the way to kalibo, i got a call from the driver ng private van.  he was yelling at me, nasaan na daw ako.  siya daw yung driver na pinerwisyo ko.  sabi ko wala ako booking sa kanya kaya i called up april agad and cleared with him na wala kami naging usapan sa transpo.  the driver told me na hihintayin daw nila kami sa hotel at ipapapulis daw ako.  sabi ni april wag ko na daw pansinin na lang. pero after a few minutes, i got another call from the owner of the van named jay guanco.  i felt harassed and natakot ako sa safety ng mga anak ko kaya i told the driver na iiwan ko na lang sa kanya yung bayad ng hotel na april paid in advance para ma book.  we will just look for another hotel.  the owner of the van was calling the driver maya't maya checking kung nasaan na kami hanggang dumating sa point na sinundan kami sa hotel na hinahanap namin.  dun na nagkaroon ng confrontations which lasted for 15-20minutes siguro buti na lang dumating si april at he cleared with the owner na we didnt have any arrangements talaga sa transportation. walang nagawa yung owner but to leave but he kept on sending me text messages.  gusto nya yata bayaran ko siya at binabantaan pa kami.  utusan daw kasi ng pulis yung jay kaya malakas ang loob.  i told him na harassment ang ginawa nya sa akin.  buti na lang the driver of the van na sinakyan namin was so mabait and happened to be a pamangkin of the mayor and he assured our safety habang nasa kalibo kami.  siya din ang sumundo sa amin and took us to the airport kasi takot talaga ako for my kids kaya habang nasa kalibo pa kami hindi ako kampante.  thank god, we got home safe.  april who's real name is eking pala texted me early morning and apologized for the van owner's attitude.  sabi ko any miscommunication between the owner and april dapat sila ang magusap since kami ni april ang magkausap at hindi nya ako dapat hinarass.  my kids were traumatized and we are now taking actions for the van's owner para hindi na maulit sa ibang bakasyonista na ang ginawa nya sa amin.

mga sis, medyo marami akong itatanong. first time ko kasi to go to Boracay with my vietnamese girl friends. hindi na namin problema yung place kasi may ninang ako sa Station 1. will stay in bora for 3D/2N.

January 27
Manila to Kalibo
12:10pm - 1:10pm

January 29
Kalibo to Manila
12:10pm - 1:10pm

1. sa previous posts, nabasa ko po na safe na magpataan ako 2hrs from Kalibo to Boracay. so assume ko 3-4pm nasa bora na kami ng Jan27. tapos January 29, dapat umalis na kami bora ng 8am para makarating kami ng Kalibo ng mga 10-11am in time for our flight back to Manila. tama po ba, mga sis?

2. sa food naman po, saan po kaya okay kumain (station 1, 2 or 3)? dun po sana sa mura lang, para may enough money kami for other activities.

3. from Kalibo to Caticlan, ano po ang okay sakyan? Shuttle van or Bus? Magkano po kaya ang rates ngayon? Pupunta kami after ng chinese new year, sana hindi naman maghike ng todo ang prices. 

4. ano po ang mga okay na activities sa Bora at magkano po ang magagastos bawat isa?
eto po yung nakita ko sa internet, hindi ko sure kung ganito pa rin ang price.
pa-check nalang po.

- Banana Boat - Php250 per person (min of 5pax) 15mins
- Reef Walking - Php600 30mins
- Zorb - Php300
- Fly Fish - Php600 per person (min of 3pax) 15mins
- ATV - Php400

Thank you po sa mga sasagot! Malaking tulong po sakin. Ako lang po kasi nagpaplano kasi wala
pa sila rito. Thank you po
