/kloc-China visitors under the age of 0/8 cannot enter the Philippines alone. They need an adult to accompany them, preferably one of their parents. If parents can't accompany them, they need to entrust other adults to accompany them, and provide a power of attorney written by one of their parents when entering the Philippines. The power of attorney shall include the client's passport number and the client's certificate number, and attach a copy of the client's valid certificate. Therefore, it also ensures that the information provided by family members is true and effective, and avoids being unable to enter the country because the information provided is misleading.
2.65-438 years old+people under 05 years old
In the picture below, the rumor of Philippine Airlines is not the official information of Philippine Airlines. Please consult the Philippine Immigration Bureau for details. I checked, and there are examples of being fined thousands of pesos for not carrying the original birth certificate. Therefore, children under the age of 15 should bring the original birth certificate when traveling in the Philippines! If you can't find it at the moment, you can reissue it.
The route I choose is Shanghai-Manila-tagbilaran. No experience in buying tickets. The sooner you buy an international line, the cheaper it is. People who grab tickets are more likely to get round-trip tickets at cabbage prices. But there is no suspense. I'm not the one who grabbed the ticket. I'm wasting money! The plane ticket for the early morning of May 23rd was purchased on May 18 after getting a visa, and it cost RMB.
3392.00。 It is nearly 50% more expensive than its peers again.

Tips:
1. Pay attention to safety when transferring at Manila airport. Because of Manila, the safety factor is not high. Even from T3 to T4, it may not be smooth sailing. I go back and forth alone, and I don't want to have any moths. Even when I buy a plane ticket, I choose to transfer at the same terminal.
2. Cebu Airlines, the free baggage allowance is 7KG. If you don't think it's enough, go to official website to buy air tickets and baggage allowance.
Insurance has bought overseas travel insurance, and the purchase channel is still Ma Yunjia. Don't save this money just in case. Especially if you want to dive, not just any insurance company. You should read the terms clearly. If you buy the right insurance, you can still get compensation even if you enter the hyperbaric oxygen chamber. Of course, it's best not to get out of danger! Safety first! It is said that paragliders in regular groups also have special insurance. )

Update:
2065438+2008 65438+2008 In response to the delay of Shanghai Feijiami, when applying for compensation, it was found that the products purchased in official website were much simpler than those purchased through Taobao. So, I suggest now, if you buy this insurance, go to official website!
money
When you get there, you can change dollars into pesos. You can also exchange RMB directly into pesos at home. According to the exchange rate situation at that time (also for fear of trouble), I chose RMB directly against peso.
Call the Bank of China five working days in advance to make an appointment to exchange pesos. I booked 7,000 RMB and exchanged it for 48,300 RMB.
P) pesos. I almost thought I was rich, wake up! ! )
PS: I saw this one when I was looking up the information before: bring a Huaxia card and confirm that there is 2400 yuan in the card. After arriving at Manila airport; In the lobby of T3 terminal, I found a blue CITI.
There is no handling fee for the bank's ATM to withdraw money from this ATM in both directions. In addition, a handling fee of 200 pesos will be charged for withdrawing money through other ATMs in the Philippines. If you have an Huaxia card, you can try it.
Now Huaxia card is also charged. But I have a friend who works in a foreign bank. Before going to the Philippines on March 20 17, he told me that all the staff in their bank are card holders, and there is no handling fee for global cash withdrawal. It won't be expanded here.
In addition to international roaming, it is also convenient to use local calling cards. Global calling cards can be purchased at Manila airport, and the staff will help with the operation. Remember to take care of the domestic calling card.
I chose the 500P package, including calls, traffic and text messages; It seems cheaper if you don't have to call. The staff will show a form and make a choice according to the content of the form. Don't worry about the language, the staff are familiar with it, and receiving customers is like an assembly line. There is no problem at all.
20 17 1 1 experienced landing at other airports before entering the country, and lamented that he had prepared a local calling card in advance, so he could contact the local airport pick-up service and hotel staff in time. So I suggest that a group of people travel abroad, at least prepare a local phone card in advance. Open international roaming, just ignore this one.
The island jump trip is in Alona.
There are many locals holding colorful pictures on the beach to drum up business. Go out to sea to see dolphins+snorkeling in Zhadao, Barrica+Virgin Island, and make an appointment one day in advance. The final negotiated price is 1, 300 pesos for two people, including goggles for snorkeling+breathing tube+250 pesos for environmental protection in Zhadao, Barrica. I feel great! )
Update: If you bring your own snorkeling equipment, it is recommended that children or people who are not nearsighted wear a full-dry snorkeling mask, which is better than traditional snorkeling masks and breathing tubes. Myopia, with snorkeling glasses.
I have to get up early. I remember it was about 6 o'clock in the morning, and I arrived at the assembly point. I got on the crab boat and put on my life jacket. After that, I rushed to the dolphin's daily haunt and chased them.
Do dolphins think humans are noisy? In addition to the motor sound, the elderly tourists also shouted excitedly "Dolphin! Dolphin! "
It wasn't sunny when I went out to sea, so I took a picture and let you take a good one.
Baricasa snorkeling
After bidding farewell to dolphins, I went snorkeling in Zhadao, Barrica. Among the tourists in the same boat, there are two Korean girls who also brought steamed buns and said they could feed them. So I asked them for one, Consamda.
Update: I learned later that it is not good to feed small fish. I admit my mistake.
One of them entered the water first and then exclaimed. Then I understood. Let me talk about my feelings first. The sea is salty and the water is beautiful! The moment I jumped into the water, I was scared. I feel the water is deep, and I'm afraid it will drift away in minutes. Grab the boat and stay by it until the guide comes to take me.
In other words, friends in the same trade, because they have been scuba diving, are immune to the following scenarios. But I didn't, so fear, novelty, envy and so on. It constituted my mood at that time. Believe me, underwater is really great! Big coral, midstream fish. The picture does not reflect the overall beauty!
In other words, the tour guide caught a small blue starfish as a gesture of goodwill, and we asked the tour guide to put it back into the sea. Don't take it away or stay, it is a respect for nature. Barrica Zhadao, a private island, was once open for free. As more and more tourists come here, it has a certain impact on the local environment, especially underwater, and island fees have been collected. For example, Barry Casa has passed the "peak" now, so please take care of TA. Even if it's just a passer-by
Virgin Island
After snorkeling, go to the next destination, an island that needs fate-Virgin Island. Why is it fate? Because there will be crescent-shaped fine white sand beaches after low tide. My reflex arc is very long, and when I think of taking pictures, the tide is already high. therefore
This island is not big, you can visit it in half an hour, and the introduction of the island has not been carefully inspected. I only remember playing with sand on the beach for a long time.
At this point, I participated in the island-jumping tour project and continued to eat and drink after returning to Alona Beach. There were other activities on the island trip, which I didn't attend at that time.
Highland part
Next, talk about the scenic spots on the island, because there are motorcycles, so I want to go by myself. I asked the hotel owner first and decided not to go to chocolate hills. Then I checked Google Maps, and after communicating with the rabbit driver, I decided the order: starting from Alona Beach, first going to the tarsier protection center, then seeing the caves, and finally returning to Alona Beach.
-Philippine Glasses Monkey Protection Center
It's far from Arona Beach, about 45 minutes by bus from Tu Tu-1 hour, and 25-30 minutes by bus. Considering the closing time at 16:00 in the afternoon, I went to this place first. After all, it is the national treasure of the Philippines, I want to see it!
Note that the tarsier is Nocturnal Animals, who can take pictures, but can't turn on the flash! Eyes are big, but fragile.
Tarsier tarsier is still an endangered protected animal. Before entering the park, you will pass through the exhibition hall to get a general understanding of the eating habits and living habits of tarsiers. There's even an autopsy. You can see that the tarsier is only as big as the palm of your hand, and its eyes account for more than half of its head. Really? Big eyes.
(Photographed in the exhibition hall, mother tarsier with two babies)
The admission fee is not expensive, as long as you spend a loss (60 pesos/person, maybe there is a mistake). After entering the park, you should follow the staff carefully to avoid scaring the tarsiers.
-HinagdananCave, South Cave of Hinada
It takes about 20 minutes to drive from the tarsier protection center to the cave. According to the nationality convention, buy a ticket before admission (40 pesos/person, maybe there is a mistake). There will be a notebook at the entrance where you can write down the information of tourists such as year, month, day, name and nationality. Don't write. Please feel free. When you walk down the stairs, the tour guide will always remind you to be careful. They are still very polite, awesome!
Water is seawater mixed with groundwater, which is very cold and clear. The tour guide said that you can swim in the water and you can pay extra. Also, there are bats in the cave, but don't be afraid.
After leaving the cave, I bought some souvenirs in the shop at the door. A tarsier T-shirt, 99 pesos; Small glasses monkey key chain and small bag, 100 peso 3? I don't remember exactly. I think I can (easily) love (properly), so I bought a few more; Two strings of pearl bracelets at the bottom, purchased from Alona.
Beach, 200 pesos.
Summary: two tickets are cheap, and they added up at that time 100 pesos/person; The ticket price is relatively expensive, and it cost 1000 pesos (because there is a certain distance). If you want to go to more places, you can book a day trip, as well as see churches, chocolate hills, fireflies and other activities, which is more cost-effective.
My little friend ate my Amway in Mint Island, stayed in Mint Island for 14 days (OW+AOW+ free travel) and participated in firefly hunting activities at night. Feedback is a dream.
Eating and shopping
Banglao has many choices of food, including local food, barbecue, Chinese food, Italian food, Korean food, Thai food and so on. On the way to AlonaBeach, you can also buy a cup of fruit.
Shake it. Some companions drink two or three cups of MangoShake (double or even triple sugar+milk) a day, and the clerk knows it!
Bee farm and optical shop are local restaurants with distinctive features. The former also has a branch selling ice cream on AlonaBeach, and the latter suggests going in the afternoon so that you can watch the sunset.
The picture shows Halo-halo in the tarsier restaurant, which is a local dessert in the Philippines. I'm crazy about desserts. Of course I want to try them.
In terms of shopping, in addition to street shops, we will also go to ICM Mall.
It is said that tobacco and alcohol in the Philippines are really cheap. Among several kinds of cigarettes bought, the most expensive is 505 pesos. I also saw Japanese tourists buy more than a dozen cigarettes at ICM that day.
stay
I'm a little different. I stayed in a hotel for the first night, and then I bumped into a room rented by a friend. The hotel booked TipTop through reservation (it is no longer Ma Yunjia at last), with a score of 8.2. It is said that the boss is Swedish, upstairs is the guest room, and the first floor is the shop and restaurant. Allonas
The beach is not too close. About 15 minutes away, not bad. Accommodation is still very easy to solve, just browse the hotel on the reservation.
About diving shop, one room, two single beds, including private bathroom and WIFI. The price of friendship between friends is one month, RMB 2000 (because Jun Jun is a diving instructor). Next, Wang Xingren, named Coke, is raised by the owner of the diving shop. He is super lively.
Hidden shops are often closed during the day, not to prevent thieves, but to prevent little guys from running next door to play with pigs, sheep and so on. Once, coke sneaked out and was caught covered in mud. Three workers in the shop were anxious to give Coke a bath, but Coke still looked innocent. I saw it then. It's really ha ha ha ha. (I was so happy that I forgot to take pictures)
PS: The nearest five-star hotel in Banglao to AlonaBeach is HenannResortAlonaBeach (Arona Beach Henna Resort); And a Samsung twin.
TidesPanglao (Shuangchao Banglao Hotel) opened in April 2065438+2006. I wanted to book it at that time, but I answered the email late, so I booked TipTop.
(The way of eating in Henan is called "Henan" by some people, as if the locals can understand it)
The local traffic and local driving habits are not bad. It takes 450-500P to get to the beach or take a bus from Tabilan airport, which takes about 30 minutes. Tu Tu tricycle 250-300P, about 40 minutes. You can tip your friends, they will be very happy. If you want to be more free, just rent a motorcycle, like 500P a day? I can't remember clearly, but it's not expensive in my impression. Download Google
Map, enter the location, you can't go wrong. The experience is very good!
(Tu Tu cars, many car owners will decorate their cars and see some lovely cars. )
Other precautions 1. Clothes for the Philippines, summer clothes are enough. It is recommended to bring a coat and trousers, because the air conditioning on the plane is still sufficient when flying from Manila to Tabiralan. In addition, remember to prepare swimsuits, sunglasses, magic headscarves and sunscreen.
2. When diving (snorkeling or deep diving), if you are afraid of the sun, please use physical sun protection to reduce the exposed area of the skin. Because sunscreen is not biodegradable, it will pollute and destroy the marine environment, and corals that are sensitive to the environment and organisms that rely on coral groups will be affected; And the sunscreen on the skin may have an allergic reaction when it comes into contact with seawater. I'm afraid of the sun. I need a hat+magic headscarf+sun protection clothes to go to Yong 'an Mountain.
Participating in the island-jumping tour is sunscreen+swimsuit. When snorkeling, don't wear sunscreen and go straight into the water in a swimsuit. (There is no picture here)
Update: afraid of the sun, you can wear diving suits and long-sleeved trousers, Decathlon has it!
3. When you leave Tabiralan Airport, you need to pay 100P/ person's outlying island tax.
After paying100p/100p, there will be a green bill.
Update: 2065438+In March 2007, my friend went to the Philippines and returned to the terminal of Manila Airport. He asked me if I wanted to pay the departure tax in cash. You used to have to pay, but now the ticket already includes this fee, so you don't have to pay in cash! I have answered similar questions from netizens some time ago, so I will update them separately.
After arriving at Manila airport, you can make an appointment at this massage shop first. I didn't ask until I had eaten and drunk enough. I'm fully booked, so I calculated the time and didn't go in case it was too late. Speaking of Bunny's massage, I experienced it once and almost fell asleep. That's awesome.
It is convenient to charge at Manila airport.
