  • How get to Boracay in the Philippines? Look no further, we'll tell you all about our own experience in this video. We chose an easy, fast and convenient way to get to the island.
    We started our journey in Manilla and flew to Caticlan airport, the nearest airport to Boracay. You have many ways to get to Boracay Island, either by pre-booking or doing it yourself in the moment. Since we did not book it yet and knew you could also do it at the place, we decided to wait.
    When arriving at the Caticlan airport, you pick up your baggage and leave the terminal. When entering the next building you have the options to just book a transfer to the harbour and arrange everything yourself or to book a whole package. This whole package is fast, easy and it costs 1050 pesos per person. This includes all transfers bringing you to your hotel and also port fee plus environmental fee. We chose Southwest Travel & Tours as we heard good things about them, and they were the first ones we noticed in the arrivals hall.
    A door to door service is super easy and gets you to the island pretty fast. So more time for your holiday and less haggling with van and tricycle drivers. Overall we totally recommend booking this whole package, Yes you do spend a little more, but all the mandatory fees are included! So in the end the extra costs are negligible and it makes for an easy and efficient transfer.

    I have no intention on going to a crowded tourist trap or overpriced amenities as Boracay. Been to Bali Indonesia which was a crowded place of overtourism especially the beach. However the people in Indonesia are so friendly and helpful. Living in the Philippines, focus on Tagaytay with alot cooler weather. Enjoy.

    Hello there dear sir/madam. honestly ur video was very helpful to me as i am heading there in 10 days. I HAVE ASERIOUS QUESTIONS THOUGH: WHICH HOTEL DO YOU RECOMMEND ME TO STAY IN BORCAY? DO I HAVE TO BOOK IN ADVANCE ? OR WALK IN RESERVATION?

    • @yesandexplore
      @yesandexplore  5 месяцев назад

      Hello! Thank you for watching, we are glad to hear that.
      First hotel we can recommend is the one we visited:
      Hue Hotel at Station X Boracay Review
      ruclips.net/video/L5P9-8wAbrk/видео.html
      Overall if you want a good hotel for a good price it’s better to book in advance as you will also have the most choice. And there is always the option to walk in reservation but you don’t want to waste time the first few days. So we would recommend if you want to do walk ins to book at least something for the first few days, explore the island and then find an area with hotel that you like and do walk in reservation!
      Enjoy your stay like we did!! 👍🏽

    would you say 4-5 hours at MNL is enough to be on time for a flight to Caticlan?

    • @yesandexplore
      @yesandexplore  4 месяца назад +2

      Yes that’s more than enough under normal circumstances. Try to make sure(if you can) you book connecting flights on the same ticket. That if something goes wrong they will rebook you. Good luck with your travels 😃

    Hi Guys😊,
    How many hours in advance were you in terminal 3? And i read about any travel tax, how much is it?

    • @yesandexplore
      @yesandexplore  Год назад +3

      Hey!! We arrived about 2.5-3 hours in advance at terminal 3. Regarding the travel tax we are not sure what you mean but for Boracay you have to pay a terminal fee (150 pesos), boat fee (50 pesos) and environmental fee (150 pesos) but since we booked the transfer this was all included!

      Thank you for your reply. Cool cause my friend said maybe 4-5 hours in advance and omg...
      Ya in different videos from Terminal 3 , there was a Travel Tax counter, but maybe the tax is only for citizens and not for tourists.

    • @yesandexplore
      @yesandexplore  Год назад +2

      No problem! We are happy to help :) after some quick research I can confirm that as a tourist you do not have to pay travel tax, unless you stay in the Philippines for more than a year!
      Hope you enjoy your trip!!

    • @yesandexplore
      @yesandexplore  9 месяцев назад +2

      It’s important that you book a hotel before you go to Boracay and pay the fees on the dock before entering, then it shouldn’t be a problem! But always check tourist office as rules can always change! Good luck!

      Hey! It all depends on how long are you staying, what you want to do and if this money includes accommodation! If it’s just food and you eat local plus alcohol from 7/11 you can… but drink alcohol and western food then it will be harder!
