Bohol is one of the most attractive tourist destinations in the Philippines.We have been there last November 12-13, 2009.This Do-It-Yourself Tour guide might be of help for budget conscious tourists.
Try the early booking promos of Cebu Pacific Airline at www.cebupacificair.com.I was able to get a round trip ticket for two ( Nov-12 1400H from Legazpi City to Cebu City and Nov.15 0945H connecting flight from Cebu City to Manila then 1340H Manila to Naga City ) for only P1,117.44.Airport Terminal fee at Legazpi P30.00 while at Mactan-Cebu International airport P200.00.If you can avail the Manila-Tagbilaran promo that would be much cheaper.But I decided to take the Cebu flight because I planned to have a one day DIY City tour in Cebu after Bohol.
Taxi ride from Mactan-Cebu International airport to Pier 1 will cost you less than P200.00.Take a cab at the departure area,(white colored taxi) it is cheaper by P70.00 because they don't pay for the terminal parking fee.At Pier 1 entrance,temporary vehicle pass fee is P10.00.
Avail the Ocean Jet Ferry Libre Balik Promo, meaning you have to pay for a round trip ticket at 50% off.Cebu to Tagbilaran City cost P820.00/passenger.
To save hotel transfer,book at El Portal Inn. They offer free shuttle service from/to pier or airport.Room rate at P900.00/day air conditioned room with hot and cold bath good for two guests.They also offer package tour.Country side Tour at P2,000.00 using air conditioned car (maximum of 4 persons) P3,000.00 for a van ( 5-12 persons) and Panglao Island Tour for car P1,800.00 while van for P2,200.00.You can also rent a tricycle for P1,200.00 for a country side tour.
