Does a filipino who intends to stay in South Korea for 5 days need a Korean visa?
i think you will need it.its better to get one anyway just in case
We're planning some "make it up as we go" island hopping through C & W Visayas, and want to depart from Manila using Superferry.
What itinerary would you recommend?
We don't want to stay at luxury hotels. We would prefer cabins and the like. We do not want to do a "package tour." We want to walk about, get a taste of culture, see some stuff in a laid back sort of way.
If you are Filipino, if you live on any of these islands, please contribute input.
We will be doing all of this during "off season" in June and July.
The safest place to go, I would recommend BOHOL. Superferry stops in Tagbilaran City. And I would recommend going there around 2nd week of July. In July they will have this SANDUGO STreet Dancing commemorating the FRIENDSHIP with the spaniards years ago. And then you guys can go to the beautiful beaches in Panglao and Dauis and more beaches is PANGGANGAN Island in Calape Bohol. Then you can go to LOBOC to see the big cross ontop of the mountain - you can hike or ride the motorcycle called "habal-habal". Downtown Loboc, you can visit the 2nd oldest church, get on the floating restaurant and experience the hospitality they give you. The barangay Valladolid has the floating restaurant and so as the small NIPA HUT to spend the night. I know people from there. Then from Loboc, you can ride the jeepney or motorcycle to go to CARMEN, Bohol and see the famous and wonder of the chocolate Hills.
I am sure there is more to see in BOHOL than what I have mentioned above. TRUST ME! Bohol is beautiful.
Have fun and enjoy your stay!
Hello, I am really hoping you could help me. My husband and I wanted to go to Hong Kong this June and we wanted the best deal for money and time. I checked Philippine Airlines and Cebu Pacific. PAL obviously is more expensive than Cebu Pacific. I also check the Fun Tours of Cebu Pacific where they offer plane and lodging accommodations. The cheapest is Php23,000 for the plane to and from and then 3 nights at a 2-star hotel. I chose the more expensive package for a more relaxed flight schedule and a 3-star hotel accommodation in Dorsett Far East. We will make our own itinerary since we are planning to explore, although I have been there before.
Please help me decide. I am not sure if I will go this route (which we will do all the planning ) or just go to a travel agency. Please give me pointers.
If you haven't purchased your ticket yet, and if you are in Philippines, you should look look for discount air tickets flying out of Manila. I've flown Air Asia many times (http://www.airasia.com) and have been very happy with them. There's also Tiger Air (http://www.tigerairways.com/), which I know flies between Manila and Macau for about $25 US (don't remember the price in Php). After you are in Macau, you can catch a ferry to Hong Kong,
In terms of "relaxed flight," I don't know why you are concerned with this since it's nonstop and it's not a long flight.
If you want to stay in Macau for one night and see things there, check out Pousada de Mong Ha. ( for a review see http://patnotebook.blogspot.com/2009/03/macau-hotel-pousada-de-mong-ha.html ).
Do bear in mind that the Ferry between Macau and HK does cost some money, but it's comparable to the airport express MTR if you arrive at the airport in HKG, but just remember to figure in the transportation costs to either airport when you compare prices.
I've never heard of Dorsett Far East hotel. Have you looked at any reviews for it on http://www.tripadvisor.com , and also where is it located? In my opinion, a key issue in Hong Kong is proximity to public transportation. Try to find something that says it's very close to the MTR, because then you will have no trouble getting anywhere you want. I think hotels in Causeway Bay or Mong Kok tend to be a fairly good value. Also, cleanliness can be an issue at the two star level, so look at the web sites that have hotel reviews and read the comments closely!
Of COURSE you can make these arrangements yourself! It takes just a bit of courage, but it gives you a lot more control. Look for hotel reviews on http://www.tripadvisor.com ALSO you can book online through the Hong Kong based internet travel agency Zuji: http://www.zuji.com . The Zuji site is excellent, easy to book through them, and they have reviews of each hotel. I also think their "deals" (listed with stars as best value ) are indeed pretty good deals. For a bit lower level of accomodation you can look on http://www.hostelworld.com.
In June, it will be really hot in HKG! You might enjoy trying to stay someplace with AC and a pool.
Have fun!
i just want to ask if mac Travel tour agency is really reliable and exist in the united kingdom, or this is approved by the country just like here in the Phil's. which is Philippine overseas employment administration
This "company" has been asked about before in relation to people being offered jobs here in the UK and I'm sorry to say that the company does not exist. This usually means that you are being scammed in some way...especially if you have been offered a job and you have to pay some money to get any type of documents.
