I’d be up for a get-together.
If you visit Cebu the 3 top attractions IMO are the Taoist Temple, Fort San Pedro and the aquarium at SM Seaside.
Take one of the fast ferries to get to Tagbilaran. It’s worth the few extra dollars to go business class.
For a place to stay the Ice Bear Tourist Inn is nice and budget-friendly.
Good tips, thank you sir. I’ll send updates when I know my schedule.
I’ve visited Corregidor twice, and for anyone with an interest in WWII and military history it’s a must see. It can be done as a day trip from Manila, or there’s a small hotel where visitors can stay overnight.
Corregidor is on our list!
Hey, so, we just had a supermini Dope Fest here in the Philippines, @Mr.Duality and me. It was a nice meetup and I look forward to meeting him again one of these days!
➜ (Mini) Dope Fest in the Philippines. Who can join? Mon 28 Dec in Visayas, on Bohol Island ■
I am in Davao now. I flew in today and want to travel to GenSan tomorrow. That’s General Santos City.
I’m trying to find a car for hire on Facebook. An interesting process. I’ve never tried this before. The driver for GrabCar today from DVO airport to my hotel suggested that. I’m looking for someone who knows local sights of interest, and sights of interest along the way and also in GenSan. We’ll see how this goes!
Otherwise, I’ll take a bus.
In GenSan I know someone there and will visit him for a few hours, then I’ll fly back to Manila later that day (our Friday here).
BTW it is 1am here. HAPPY NEW YEAR 2026!
The rental cars here in Bohol are awful. Bald tires and unreliable. I think we’ve rented 3 cars here. One had an electrical problem and another got a burst radiator hose.
