Bohol trip Day 2 cont. and Cebu




Bohol trip Day 2 Cont.


       
After Balicasag Island we headed to Virgin Island, from afar i saw that that tiny island  consist of very shallow land or sand. When we arrived, some vendors flock to us selling pearl accessories, buko juice, and some seafoods. We were amazed by the sight because the sand is white, very shallow water surrounded us.

Bohol trip day 2

Bohol Trip Day 2 

         We woke up around 5:30 am because its the Dolphin watching, Balicasag, Marine Sanctuary Snorkeling, and Virgin Island Tour. Andami naming puntahan! so sulit talaga! :) We are still so sleepy but we have to wake up because we might not see any dolphins. We booked this tour from the doorman in the hotel, cost 2600 pesos. We made the wrong move. Because later that night while having dinner, we saw many guys offering that tour for only 1500!!! we got ripped off!!!!



We saw alot of dolphins yun nga lang mahirap kunan.heheh. cant forget the little dolphins following their moms. :) 



breakfats in Balicasag is soo expensive. 100pesos each
hindi satisfied fiance ko sa kinakain nya kasi UBER mahal!! not  worth the price. share lang kami nyan.


Snorkeling in Marine Sanctuary near Balicasag Island.








Transferring to a small boat for marine snorkeling.
I don't like Balicasag Island. You won't see anything interesting, what you see in that island is small stores offering breakfast (soo expensive). Swimming Gadgets for rent PAX:
Aqua shoe-200, snorkelling gear - 100, case for camera - 300
the seashore in that island is not white sand, the sands is just not pleasing to walk.
For this trip alone cost us 3500 already. such a ripped off, we should have chosen this package in the hotel which is way much cheaper and complete already. No lunch included pa yan ha. 









Next stop would be The Virgin Island.

Bohol Trip Day 1


Hi! i'm Jas it's my first time to write a blog and I hope you will like it! anyway, me and my fiance love to travel. I always make sure  to travel with a good budget thats worth every peso. i don't want to overspend. as much as possible save money for that trip and i want sulit lahat!!! :) First DIY namin ito and Bohol is my mamas hometown.

D + J = B  <3
by the way this shot cost us 100pesos.before going to chocolate hills our driver drop us in a shop that has a background of it.







1. i booked through Philippine Airlines one way for both of us. book in advance, like two months ahead to save fare. One way because im not sure if we would visit Cebu.

2. i looked through sulit.com to find a package that would suit our budget. luckily i found alot and lists all that in my trusty notebook.

3. i google all hotels in Panglao that is beachfront but affordable and again list it. I don't know why i didn't book it. maybe because its not a peak season.





Bohol day 1
When we arrived in Bohol at 7am. My fiance asked me Now what? hahahah! kaloka hindi ako nagbook ng hotel buti na lang nagresearch ako at dala ko ang aking mahiwagang notebook. :)
I immediately call Alona tropical beach resort and inquire.  Why that resort? because its beachfront, had a pool, located in Alona beach and affordable! We hired a tricyle driver and we paid him 300pesos. I love the ambiance of the resort. I made the right choice. :)


I LOVE PANORAMA SHOTS! :)
 inside the resort i saw these plants hanging in the trees.the color red....i dont know what that is but i super like it! tama ang choice ko ng hotel! :)




big cages for monkeys and birds.
















This resort is perfect. Its in between Hennan and Amorita resort but same beach. why pay for more diba? Nakasulit! :)
 kidney shape pool


We choose the Deluxe Room  w/ air-con without breakfast. Rate is P2980. When we arrived in our room, the native wall is so charming and clean. The smell is tolerable due to native walls. The bathroom is  huge and the big antique cabinet might scare you.hahahha! baka may mumu sa loob!
We love everything in this room, next time ill choose a room with a tub. :)


Outside the room. Couple pic! :)
magsasawa kayo sa couple pic!


















I called  the driver that will tour us for the countryside. I found him at http://www.sulit.com.ph/
