Experience Bohol

Bohol is one of the provinces in the Central Visayas region and is the island facing the east coast of Cebu. The island is surrounded by numerous islets. It is the third largest island in the country and is truly nature's bounty. If I have to rate Bohol from my own perspective, I would rate this island near to a perfect score because there's so much more on this island that one can experience.


Chocolate Hills in Carmen

The Chocolate Hills

Probably Bohol's top tourist destination, a geological formation scattered in the middle of the island. This unique natural wonder captured the interest of geologists, tourists, and travelers alike.

The Loboc River

A river that has become a major tourist destination because of the Loboc River Cruise, a cruise along one of the greenest and cleanest rivers in the country. The cruise fee already includes a buffet meal for lunch and an enjoyable cultural show.

Composed of the municipalities of Dauis and Panglao, this island has become one of the most chosen destinations in the Philippines. Alona Beach is famous for its nightlife and there are islands off the coast too that are worth visiting, Virgin Island and Balicasag Island. The other favorite beach destination on the island of Panglao is Dumaluan.

4D3N Boracay - Islas de Gigantes Itinerary

One summer in 2016, we were blessed to explore and experience two of the most visited island destinations in Western Visayas; Boracay Island and Isla de Gigantes . Let me share with you how we did it and here is our 4D3N itinerary. We first flew from Mactan Cebu International Airport to Kalibo , the gateway to Boracay.

Day 1 - Experience Boracay Boracay, once dubbed as the most beautiful island in the world is not just for the rich but for budget travelers too.
