Bohol Philippines

Now I will tell you about Bohol Philippines. Go to Bohol is very easy. There are some flights you can choose from. I took a flight to Cebu, the history of other islands in the Visayan region of the Philippines, and from there take the ferry to go to the island of Bohol. Summer is almost over, but the airport and the port was still quite crowded. Get to the airport and harbor a few hours before your trip so you will not have problems with long lines for security checks.

Another way to fly directly from Manila to Tagbilaran airport. Tagbilaran is the capital of the province of Bohol.

Bohol village

Whether you are traveling solo or traveling with friends or family, there are several options that you can do if you want to see the best destination in Bohol. You can speak with a local tour guide and rent a car with a driver for the day. This is the most practical rather than rent and drive a car or motorbike hire.


The tour guide will give you a choice of Bohol some tours. Tourism Village so I took my wife and I could see all the wonders of this island. This will cost you about $ 60.

Baclayon Church
This is a very old church which was built during the Spanish rule in the Philippines.

Beside the church is a museum that has old robes used by the priests, old music scores, images of saints, and a very old bell.

Lunch at floating restaurant in Loboc River
Loboc River has gained popularity when children's choir won the international grand prix besting (and old) the best choirs from around the world. River is the main water channel from the island. This is a very fun and hard to forget

at the floating restaurant while serenaded by folk singers. Restaurants float drove by while we enjoyed our lunch of crab, shrimp, scallops, pork barbecue, mixed vegetables, grilled fish, and fresh fruits. This is all you can eat only about $ 12.
This cruise will take you 3 kilometers into the heart of river. You will take a pit stop at a local tribal village. The people of the Ati tribe all smiles and used to tourits already. They are more than willing if you want to have your picture taken with them. You can even hold a spear, wearing their head dress, or bows and arrows as props. Do not forget to give them some tips as this is the main source of their income because they were replaced by the developer at a nearby island.

Tarsier
Get up close and personal with the world's smallest primate. Bohol is the home of the tertiary. The smallest monkey in the wold is protected metal but local government has allowed several families in Bohol to breed and take care of some tarsiers so that they can use it for tourism and increase awareness about these animals.

Bohol tour guide you will be able to connect you with this family so you can take pictures of these tertiary. The animals are tame enough that you can put your face next to them. Those monkeys are very small and you can literally cup one in your hand if only allowed. They have very large eyes, live in a social group like the other monkeys, and at night according to the care takers.

Man-made forest
On our way to the world famous Chocolate Hills we passed a man-made forest. Our tour guide told us that mahoganies forest layers grown by the Boy Scouts back in 1950. This is a protected area and no one can cut one tree. A survey is being conducted regularly every five years to monitor the area.

Chocolate Hills
Chocolate Hills is a competitor to become one of the world's natural wonders. There are more than a thousand brown, green mound that you can see from the deck to see how far your eye can see.

Basing on the stone choir you can see near the deck of view, it seems that this area was under water during the early years of the earth. You can reach the deck view, which provides 360-degree view Chooclate Hills, through a 214 step staircase.

If you want luxury image with the Chocolate Hills as a backdrop, your tour guide can take you to the studios of professional photographers who can do this for about $ 2 per photo. Very cheap!
