^^^ we booked tours in advance c/o coron wonders. half yung down namin for booking. wala naman naging problem kasi flexible naman si ate rina. ni-recompute nya based on sino lang ang kasama for a particular day tapos dun lang divide yung gastos. so si sis beautz mas mura binayaran nya kasi hndi sya nakasama sa day 1 na town tour. kami naman na nag-town tour sinerve na lang din sa amin yng dapat food ni beautz at no extra cost.

joining...

i'm doing some backreading in preparation for our coron trip. 2 lang kami.  naisip ko lang, mahirap mag join ng group tour.  what if na delay ang flight namin so magiging cause of delay pa kami.  we might rent the boat exclusive na lang for the two of us kahit medyo mahal.

problem ko rin ang UW camera.  might buy na lang a dicapac.  mahal ang rent, 900 or 500 yata rent per day?

re: aquashoes.  i'm thinking kung pwede na yung havs ko na may strap.  matibay naman ang havainas.  ang worry ko lang baka matanggal sa pagkakastrap while swimming.

i like our tour to be hassle free as much as possible. i have already inquired with some tour coordinators, hindi pa lang namin naffinalize.

          @two zero,maraming salamat sa reply.appreciate it :)

           i need your opinion mg sister,this is our case:

          we will be departing coron at 1:40 pm ,if there's no delay then we will be in manila after 50 minutes.

       (1)  the question is,how long ba sila ma delay? 1hr,2 hrs or 3 hrs?

        (2) since ang flight namin is at 1:45,what time should we be at the airport?

       (3) for sure,we will have our lunch outside the airport.are there decents restaurants near the airport where we could have lunch ?

        marami po ulit salamat. :)

@LimaCharlie  2 lang rin kame nag Coron ng friend ko and since gusto namin hawak ang oras, at kame magdictate gaano kame katagal sa lugar or tourist spot, nag private tour kame kay Kuya Charlie. Php6,500/pax lang all in na yung package.

May nabasa ako somewhere dito sa thread na na g leak ang dicapac at nasira camera nila. kaya if i were you, don't take the risk. =/ UW camera is 500 per day.

what do you need aqua shoes for? naka havs din ako nung nagpunta kame pero wala hehe. pero pag swim di ko suot slippers kase baka mawala.hahaha. anyway, wala naman ako tatapakan sa dagat, bawal tapakan kase corals. masisira. =) oks na yang havs.


@hottie

depende sa airline yung delay. kame dati cebu pac wala namang delay. mga 4:20PM flight back namin to Manila. Yung AirPhil that time tanghali pa dapat flight naunahan pa namin kase super delayed talaga sila. di mo rin masabi talaga.

If 1:45 flight niyo, mga 12:00 safe na yun, better be early. Wala rin kainan sa airport so mag brunch na siguro kayo or heavy breakfast. lagi din brownout sa coron so baka pati cup noodles di pwede kase wala hot water gaya nung time namin, brownout kaya hindi kame nakabili cup noodles.

hi mga sisses,

ask lang po. we'll be in coron this coming June 18-20 ... yup 3D/2N lang po.

ok lang po ba sa coron na maghanap ng tour guide for coron island loop tour. may mga available na bangkero na ba sa port? or we really have to book for a tour guide.

has anyone of you tried this? thanks for the update...

@huit
thanks sis. ano covered ng tour nyo?  ang itinerary namin is half day banana+malcapuya+bulog dos on day 1. then overnight stay sa banana island. then on day2, whole day island tour naman.  ang quote sa amin ng isang tour coordinator, 7,200/pax all in na.  try ko din humingi ng quotation kay kuya charlie. 

re: havs. yung nakikita kong pics sa mga blog. may mga steep hills/rock formation.  ok na ba yung havs when climbing steep hills?  tsaka takot ako sa sea urchins..ang sakit nun pag natapakan, mapprotect na kaya ng havs ang feet ko? heheh...

@tj & @abbey
kami kase pagdating ng coron, deretso tour na kaya we opt to arrange a tour package.  mahirap kung pagdating namin tsaka pa lang kami maghahanap ng boat rental tsaka first time namin kase sa coron. nung una din, litong lito ako sa mga tour package at sa mga posts sa mga forum, but as you go along...inquiring from tour coordinators, joining forums and backreading a little bit more.  malinaw na itinerary namin. :)

      ^^^ @huit,thank you sis sa reply.malaking tulong to. so we really have to have late breakfast sa resort namin.our resort is   1 hr from the airport yata sasakay pa kami boat palabas ng resort.ngayon alam ko na kung paano gawin ang schedule namin. :)

        sisters, a friend of mine told me we can rent in CORON DIVERS...their rate is 1000 per day ng UW camera.you can go to their website: corondivers@com.ph

      i think they also rent out aqua shoes. kung pupunta daw kayo sa coral garden to snorkel,dami daw urchins dun and slippery daw ang rocks sa kayangan lake.

affordable naman aqua shoes sa dept. stores. mga 200 pesos. ok din kasi gamitin pag akyat akyat sa Kayangan Cave. Nasulit namin ni hubby yung shoes sa island hopping. Pero pag medyo nagtitipid sa budget, ok na din flip flops. Careful lang sa mga matatalas na bato.:)

question po sa mga nag corongaleri. :)

4 kasi kami pupunta ng coron. sa website nila, for example ang Tour B-1 nila is P650/pax pero minimum of 5. since 4 lang kami, at kung wala nang ibang joiners, may idea kaya kayo kung panong magiging computation noon?

depende sis sa trip mo. number 1 destination ko ang coron pero kung may magtatanong sa akin kung saan ok gumala lagi ko ring sinasabi ang bohol. mas madali kasi ang tour dito para sa akin, lalo na kung may mga kasamang bata. marami rin kasing magagalaan.

pero kung magkakabarkada kayo at mahilig sa water activities like snorkeling at swimming ok na ok talaga ang coron.

@huit and all girltalkers- Sis naka-book kami for 3days 2 nights for Coron. Nakuha namin sa groupon yung promo except for the airfare. Included sa promo are accomodation at Coron Village Lodge (nasa town daw un kaya accessible daw sa lahat. May alam ka na ba na nag-stay na don and what are the feedback. Pinili namin to over dive link resort na isolated daw), and 1 day island hopping to Kayangan Lake, Twin Peaks Reef, Twin Lagoons, CYC island, Atwayan Beach and Coral Gardens (pa-comment naman sis sa mga yan. Thanks). Estimated time of arrival namin sa Coron is 1025am kung hindi delayed yung flight. Hingi sana ako ng suggestions ng mga activites and places to go to para ma maximize namin yung time especially sa 1st and 3rd day namin. Flight namin back to manila is 1:40pm. San pa maganda pumunta na di naman gano ka-pricey. How much yung sa shipwreck and where. TIA :)

^ Sis, my cousin stayed na dun with his friends. Okay naman daw but don't expect too much. Parang hub ng mga backpackers. :)

Maquinit Hot Spring sis, and Mt Tapyas lang ang alam kong iniikutan talaga sa town proper mismo. Don't miss Maquinit, maganda siya. Siete Pecados kung kaya pa ng Island Hopping niyo - kung mahilig kayo sa mga fish ganun maganda mag snorkel.

Kung 1:40 pm flight niyo, parang wala na kayong mapupuntahan sa 3rd day niyo? 30 mins kasi papunta Airport. Baka souvenir shop/cashew place nalang.

@LimaCharlie

Half day niyo lang gagawin yung sa Malcapuya? Anyway, cover ng tour namin is 1st Day after lunch na kame dumating so mga 4:30 nag Mt. Tapyas na kame then afterwards sa Maqquinit Hotspring. 2nd day Coron Loop, 3rd day Shop Wreck, Coral garden and Pass Island. 4th day is uwian hehe. Hmmm...so far wala namna ko nakita na sobrang abundant ang sea urchin. may nakikita ako pero since di naman ako tumatapak sa corals (bawal din kase yun) wala naman ako natapakan. hehe. Naka havs lang rin ako paakyat Kayangan Lake, hindi naman mahirap i hike yun, normal lang, medyo kakahingal lang nga.

@hottie

you're welcome! =)
