Philippine Capital- Manila

I thought this would make things easier for you to decide babe. Im giving
you options . These are the places that are commonly toured by local and
foreign tourist. All the other places are either too far or too inaccessible and
takes a lot of time to tour. The places in my hometown are easy to look up
and go to so im not including them here. So you take your pick here and well
start from there love. Ive included links for you so its easier.

Strolling at Mall of Asia

Seafood lunch or dinner from the market to ur table in 20 minutes

Lizzy
Pretty much eating and going to the malls is what we can do all day. Its too hot
to go to parks, Zoos are disappointing and frustrating and the air quality is really
bad.

OUTSIDE MANILA
-

Unfortunately, we have to take flights and domestic flights range from $38$80/ person depending on where were going, when were going and when we
were booked, and flight availability

Cebu - Approximate 2 days stay for what Lizzy wants to do (swimming with the
whale shark)

:
Hotel in cebu- from $30 - $60 https://www.agoda.com/city/cebu-ph.html?

Swimming with Whale shark + Kawasan Waterfalls adventure (includes hotel
pick up and drop offs, lunch, entrance fees, snorkel gears, souvenir pictures
including underwater pictures)
Fee is $300- for the three of us. The place is about 4 hours away from Cebu.
Unfortunately there is no other airport near it. But we will be provided a car service
to and from the place. So we need to reserve one day for this activity alone.

BORACAY- From Cebu, we can go directly to Boracay (Flight $45-$85/ person).
Upside- Boracay has powdery white sand. Really many activities to keep Lizzy
buzzing. And it has island parties everynight.
Downside- Too many tourists year round. Cant have the beach to yourself
depending on hotel location. You can see on this side where most tourist traffic is.
On the left of the picture is where most budget hotels are located. Which also
means this is wheer most tourists, restaurants, water activities and events happen.
On the right side, you can see same beautiful beaches but less people.

Boracay hotels- http://www.boracay.travel/hotels-in-white-beach-station-2

http://www.boracay.travel/accm_search

of shows at night, island hopping, jet skis

EL NIDO - another option is just to bask under the sun in paradise. This place has no activities

other than island hopping and exploring hidden and secret beaches. Its pure sea, sand and limestone
formations. Its about an hours flight from boracay ($30-$90/ person) andut 6 ab hours to get to this
paradise (van transfers arragned with hotel). Hotels range from ($50-$200 dollars for the three os us
per night. Island hopping packages include lunch, fees for the boatmen and our own boat for baout
$100 for the three os us), unless were in a bigger group which can reduce the amount. Island hopping
package operators are tied up with the hotel so its very accessible. And all hotels are beach front so
you can be lazy al you want without seeing too many people. The words here are serenity and
seclusion.

Or we can opt for places just a few hours away from Manila, minus the beautiful
scenery, but with decent beaches and fun activities for Lizzy. No need to take
flights, just commute by bus or hire a car service for under $80/day.

activities for lizzy. Accomodations Are at the regular $30-$150 per night range.
