Sis bali 4 adults kami plus 2 toddlers. Natatakot kasi ako sa ma impromptu na lakad kasi kasama ko mga anak ko kaya sana pagdating dun may kausap na kami. Mayarerecommend po ba kayo na driver? Natry ko na kasi magtour dati pero may mga kasama sa van mas gusto ko sana kami lang family. Saka sis mas mahal yung mga fast craft pero may nakapagsabi sakin may mga ferry naman daw na mura lang nasa 200 pesos totoo ba yun? Ok kaya kung may kasama kami bata? Im not sure if may seasickness anak ko pero hindi naman sila mahiluhin kasi ok naman sila sa plane

^sis for fastcraft ticket prices please check the 1st page for the website's of the companies. Compare mo na lang prices. Re tours, I'll ask my Mom for the numbers of the drivers/guides na kino-contact nya every time she has guests at her B&B. I'll PM you the numbers and ask them na lang.

went to bohol few years ago. tumambay kami ni BF sa alona beach early in the morning and nag hanap ng boatman who offers island hopping tour (dolphin watching-balicasag-virgin island). dalawa lang kami ni BF sa tour and natawaran namin hangang P1,200. however disappointed kasi wala kaming nakitang dolphin. basta nag antay lang kami in the middle of the sea for about an hour for nothing. may dolphin man o wala, we still have to pay the same amount. i know wala naman talagang guarantee na makikita ang dolphin pero may mga nakausap kasi kami na tao na galing sa ibang boat at ang dami daw nilang nakitang dolphin. hindi ko tuloy alam kung it was just not our lucky day, or yan yung napapala pag tinatawaran ang boatman. anyway, we are going back to bohol again next month and this time, kasama na pati family namin. I hope this time makita na namin ang mga dolphins especially may mga kasama kaming kids. i would really appreciate kung meron kayong marecommend na boatman. gusto sana namin maging maayos this time especially because its our special day. thank you in advance for your help.

mga sis pa help naman sa itinerary. nov 16 - 18 kami, booked na sa south palms resort. 3 adults plus 1 toddler. we plan to stay majority sa resort, chill lang. day 2 balak lang namin mag island hopping balicasag and virgin island. question, kelan ba ang best time isingit ang country side tour?

dating namin ng nov 16 ay 8:55 am. kayanin kaya namin pagkalapag derecho coutnryside tour? specifically ang gusto ko lang sana mapuntahan ay chocolate hills, loboc river and tarsier conservatory. ilang hours kaya yun? kasi 2 pm checkin namin, iniisip ko lang baka mapagod pati toddler ko kung derecho tour. para kasing babalik pa ba kami ng tagbilaran kung nagpaderecho na kami agad sa panglao? thanks!

[mama squeak!]

^pwede na kayo mag-countryside tour on your first day. Pagsundo sa inyo sa airport diretso na kayo sa Chocolate Hills (mga 1 to 1.5hrs drive time), pabalik drop by the other tourist sights on the way to Loboc for a late river lunch cruise. Then pahatid na kayo sa resort. Usually nasa resort na kayo around 3-4PM.

Kung hindi kayo napagod on your 1st day, island-hopping kayo ng 2nd day or relax na lang kayo sa beach the whole day. Ideally sana 3 to 4 full days kayo para hindi nakakapagod or bitin. But since yan lang yung time nyo that's the best IT you can do.

[sopas]

thanks mama squeak! mukhang doable naman pala mag country side day tour on the first day.

since mag stay kami sa south palms, mas ok ba i diy ang tour sa bohol bee farm? gaano ito kalayo sa south palms? i am thinking dinner time sa bohol bee farm on day2. yun lang naman ang gusto ko mapuntahan for panglao tour.ano ang available mode of transportation from south palms to bohol bee farm?

[pmartini]

Mga sis advisable ba magstay sa tagbilaran or sa panglao island for our hotel? im not sure kase if malayo ba ang panglao if we want to go and visit main spots like choc hills. thanks mga sis!

[mama squeak!]

@sopas, BBF is around 15-20 mins drive from your resort. Not sure lang what the available transpo is around that area since hindi uso taxi dyan. Ang usual ko na nakikita are mga habal-habal which is not advisable sa inyo since you have a toddler. Either ask your resort or kontratahin mo yung nag countryside tour sa inyo.

@pmartini, don't stay in Tagbilaran city, there's nothing to see there! Stay at any of the resorts in Panglao. Madali naman to visit the main tourist sights even if you stay in Panglao. Walang traffic sa Bohol, well sa Tagbilaran mismo medyo but nothing compared to here.

Just to give you an idea, the distance between the airport in Tagbilaran to Panglao (bridge connecting the two islands) is only 6kms. With a bit of traffic in the city that's about a 10 minute drive. Then from the bridge add another 20-30 minutes to your resort. It's a non-issue kung mag-countryside tour kayo.

hi mga sis, hindi ko alam kung na post ang aking questions dito earlier...ask ko lang kung kung ano ang review ninyo sa DUMALUAN 1? kasi puro DUMALUAN 2 nakikita ko po,   salamat po...Godspeed

[sopas]

ah oki. baka ipa squeeze na lang namin with kuya tatsky's team.

speaking of.. ayun ang bilis mag reply ni kuya tatsky! pero hindi raw sya ang magdrive yung isa sa mga drivers ata nila. Innova na lang kinuha namin 2400 ang rate nila. sabi nya text text na lang daw uli a night before our flight. wala namang issue ng no show si kuya tatsky noh? book ko sana bohol life tours kaya lang ang laki ng difference mga 1k- 2k din yun sayang pang kain rin

sorry dami tanong first timer kasi. sa south palms ba ano mga water activities? may play are ba for kids? it seems bare kasi sa pics. maganda pero bare pa. excited na ko!

[pmartini]

Thanks sis mama squeak!

[daveigh]

[cescilay]

Hi! Everyone na naka-experience taking public transportation from Carmen (Chocolate Hills) to Tubigon port?

[matetreyes]

Anda, Bohol is pure love!

[golden_sparrow]

@mama squeak: any review po sa DUMALUAN 1  ?  Salamat po. Godspeed 

[sopas]

hiyee sissies! we're done with our Bohol getaway. we had fun and much needed R and R.

SouthPalms: sulit ang stay namin! may free peanut kisses pa kami everyday and replenish ng water hehe. we stayed at the deluxe beach front. my daughter enjoyed walking and playing sa pool, sa may dagat. yung food nila for me sakto lang. mahal pero di naman yung nakakahinayang i just felt that na may mas sasarap pa. accomodating sila sa mga requests namin like extension cord, high chair sa loob ng room, etc. wala nga silang kiddie playroom, but may villa sila near the beach with sand castle building toys, yun na lang nilaro namin.

Kuya Tatsky: sa day tour namin tagbilaran si Kuya Rikrik ang driver. ok naman, talagang bibigyan ka ng tips para makatipid etc. yung island hopping tour namin through kuya tatsky na rin, kay kuya vito yung boat. pinayagan naman sila dumaong sa southpalms may pipirmahan lang na waiver. ang laki ng boat! malaki na sya for us kasi 3 adults 1 toddler kami. nanibago ako kasi yung sa zambales/batangas kaliit ng boats. Pauwi, kay kuya tatsky na lang kami kumuha ng pangsundo sa airport, di hamak mas mura kasi sa kanya kesa sa southpalms. nagpadaan na lang kami saglit sa bohol bee farm para bumili pasalubong, nung day 1 kasi pagod na kami kaya sabi namin wag namag bee farm.

Air Asia: we're fortunate na minimal lang delay which is papunta kasi dumating daw pala si cayetano. pero other than that smooth naman ang byahe namin ok din yung flight walang kakaiba etc. maluwag pa nga ang plane so amin na 3 seats parang may sariling seat na si baby.

thanks mga sis sa inputs nyo lalo na kay kuya tatsky sobrang real help
