Im arriving in Manila on April and would like to include Cebu or Bohol on my trip.

Which is a better place to stay, Cebu or Bohol?

Have anyone experienced Pamilacan dolphin/whale watching / Is is worth seeing?

Hi leniram;

Cebu and Bohol are both good places to stay. Some tourist will stay in Cebu and will have a full day countyside tour in Bohol.

Should you decide to stay in Bohol, you will have more time to explore the island.

Pamilacan is worth a visit for everybody who love natures beauty. Plus you will able to contribute directly in marine mammals conservation program and help the former whale hunters earn a living.

Should you need further assistance, pls email me. I can also give you list of discounted room rates in Bohol.

Enjoy your trip.

Hello! We stayed in Bohol at the Crystal Cove Resort. It was nice but EMPTY!!! We were literally the only people there in the whole resort (Abu Sayaff times--not a lot of tourists). Bohol was beautiful! We went to Chocolate Hills, took a river cruise, and played with the tiny monkeys. Beautiful place!!!

Hello guys!!!
Thanks for responding.
Due to sudden change of flight plans, I am proceeding to Boracay instead of Bohol.
I heard of the RORO travel which fits to our itinerary and makes our trip more exciting.
I would welcome any comments about Boracay whether (+) or (-). Thanks and Mabuhay!!!!

Boracay is nice!!! We stayed at Casa Pilar which was fantastic (even though a darned typhoon was there too). We were able to get balikbayan rates of about 30% off. Great place and fantastic staff. Good restaurant also!!!!
