    Thats amazing & good man yourself as you were very braved to experienced the Sulu & your tagalog is good as well.Being optimistic that Sulu is safe now is amazing, i think former president Duterte helps a lot to have a more peaceful living now in Sulu. By heart & by mind muslim or christian are one, everybody is race & born as a filipino. Hopefully the tourism there will be promoted to help the province to prosper. Stay blessed from ireland.

    Bro nice vlog🤙 I've been many times in Philippines but next time i want to go to Minadanao ( first davao). Do you recommend there? Is basilan open for everyone or only you? And why is there 2 Pulis with you is it (still) dangerous there ?

    • @EndlessMike_
      @EndlessMike_  Год назад +1

      Right on, have a great time in Davao! Ive never been there. Basilan is open for everyone, just coordinate with the local Dept of Tourism to link up with a registered guide and PNP. Not dangerous, to my knowledge - based on available data. PNP escort is just to ensure safety. Basilan is rad, hope you will check it out n enjoy ✌️

    Hi, I'm binge watching your travel vlog to Sulu archipelago as we will be coming to Zamboanga, Basilan, Sulu and Tawi Tawi.. May I ask if they still need swab test result or not anymore? Thank you!

    • @EndlessMike_
      @EndlessMike_  Год назад +1

      Hey there, thank you for checking out my Sulu Sea experience. I hope you guys will enjoy your trip! No swab test, masks, or any other restrictions at this time. If you go to Sulu you MUST coordinate with the department of tourism first. They are very helpful and will get you set up for success. Tawi-Tawi and Basilan you can just register with Dept of Tourism when you arrive.

    It shall become obvious that I'm not a good swimmer by my next comment....I nearly drowned in Masbate City when I wasn't paying attention to the tide and it was several feet deeper, 'the next day' than my previous swim. Suddenly I was shocked and surprised by at least three feet more water than I expected and had to flail my way back to the concrete shore where I sputtered and felt totally exhausted for my efforts.
    Still loved visiting Masbate though 🙂

    I don't understand what all of the check-ins are for. Been here a while and don't. Is there something [more] I don't know?

    • @EndlessMike_
      @EndlessMike_  Год назад

      It’s just for safety, security, and documentation. As the intro shows, these areas have experienced some danger in the past, so they just want to know basic details about tourists coming and going. Pretty standard stuff. Everyone from the Coast Guard, PNP, Military, and provincial gov. did an awesome job though, i was very impressed with everyone’s commitment to safety and a positive future in their communities

      yessir. It is the policy of the Provincial Dept. of Tourism in both Sulu and Basilan to co-ordinate with an accredited guide and armed escort. They are all super awesome, and I was happy to have the company :)

      @@roberttwardowski9711 ah ok, thank you for your clarification. However, i must respectfully disagree with your comparison of Sulu to an active warzone. We shouldn’t ignore the history, but how much time must pass before we can accept the new reality (based on my and many others lived experiences)?? AFP, PNP, National gov and LGUs are clearly working hard at making Sulu a safe and secure place for tourists to enjoy, and I think we ought to add more weight to people’s recent experiences there, rather than perpetuating negative stigmas and fear based perceptions. Anyway, i am traveling to Balabac this summer and am stoked to check it out, the islands look incredible. Have a rad day ✌️
