Traveling Philippines?
 

Anyone here who has plans in traveling the Pearl of the Orient - Philippines? It's a very beautiful country and going there will surely worth the value of your money. The people are friendly and the destinations are marvelous. There are lots of adventures awaiting for tourists, so, when are you going to visit Philippines?

I leave next month, gla-ams-sin-ceb(with KLM & SQ), plus some internal flights while there to go to Boracay and Camiguin (with Cebu Pacific:eek:)

Please post a Boracay and Camiguín trip report (with photos please).

I will do my best.
Since my girlfriend is from Camiguin and will be showing me about it should be an interesting trip.

You'll love it there. Enjoy....

Plenty of fun in the Philippines. Been living there the better part of a decade.

Seems to be a love-it-or-hate-it kind of place, with those I know split roughly 50-50. It's not as instantly likeable as Thailand or Malaysia and has a certain grot factor that some people can't get past, especially in places like Manila but also in some pretty drab secondary towns (Kalibo outside the festival could be the pits). With exception of Boracay it's hard to fly to a beach, with some of the better regarded ones still taking effort to reach.

It's easy to get depressed by the increased hassles, greater visible poverty or less creature comforts, but the human element and friendliness and factors like that can slowly grow on you.
