- Passenger ferries are the most used mode of transportation between islands in the Philippines and the vary from smaller banca boat ferries to very large ships with sleeping quarters for longer trips. The Oceanjet fast ferry from Cebu City, Cebu takes about 2 hour to Tagbilaran City, Bohol and costs about 500 pesos ($10 USD) for seat in the airconditioned cabin.
I am going to visit Tagbilaran city during Christmas. After watching this video, I can't wait
Thanks David. I like Tagbilaran City. Safe travels.
I had to come back and watch this video again as the wife and I will be making this journey soon. You provided some very valuable and good to know information. Thanks a bunch and have a great 2020!!
Thanks DoubleE. Travel in a foreign nation can be a bit of a challenge but it is pretty easy once you have made a trip or 2. Safe travels and Happy New Year.
So nice to see, how travelling was before Corona. Just remember our last ferry trip from Bohol to Cebu in 2020. At this time it was the only affordable way to get out of Bohol and back to Luzon, after suddenly the 1st lockdown in Manila was set.
I enjoy ferry trips also Martin. A slow boat is often ok with me also as it is a chance to relax and sometimes see dolphins.
i went to Bohol for 2 days the last time i came to Cebu 3 years ago to see the Chocolate mountains and Tarsier. Enjoy.
Thanks for the tour Rod . Nice to see Bohol again , it’s a lovely scenic island to travel around , and I will hire a scooter next time instead of organised tour in van . I’ve been three times now but still not got to see Anda , must go there next time . Lovely place to live , but I would share your concerns re lack of good medical facilities. Same problem as living in the beautiful provinces , but hours away from big hospitals in city.
We rented a 125 cc motorbike for 400/day for 6 days Brian. We paid 500 for 2 days also. I think the hotel that helped arrange that one received a commission so no problem. It is nice to have your own transportation and stop whenever you want.
Thanks for sharing.. I like Bohol seems that it is rapidly growing
Love Bohol Island. We stayed at Henann resort for a week and did the tour of the island.
I love Bohol as well. Happy new year Michael.
Hi kumusta rod. Another great video nice to see you back.bohol is a beautiful place and I see they have changed a few thing at the pier in tagbarlarin. With the triceicle riders do they have a new area where they go to now.ive been busy doing daddy jobs and looking after mums special needs so I'm back on and back in action again with my channel keep up the great videos very insightful much appreciated rod Salamat mate.scott expat in the Philippines
A really good tip for me.Thanks. Ill see you on the road soon.Enjoy and have fun
Thanks Emmanuel. Have fun and safe travels.
Bohol is on my list to visit, I need to take a break from Manila 😳.
Many thanks Rod for this informative video of Tagbilaran city, been there a few times before, as we have relatives residing and working there on Bohol. Regards to you, Bob.
Thanks Bob. We rented a motorbike and will head up the east coast today for about 6 days so it should be interesting.
I want to get over to Bohol sometime soon. I wouldn't go to Tagbilaran, though. I'd go to Jagnar.
We are going to head up the coast today for several days John and will pass through Jagnar on the way to Anda, Ubay, and beyond.
@@AmazingPhilippines1 Maybe you could get together with Joseph Seeley. He lives in Mabini. His YT name is the same as his real name, and you guys could maybe do a collaborative video.
the town is called jagna not jagnar ....... in p.i, j is pronounce h ... you say it hag-na (like hug-na) not yag-na ...... jagna is the next town after garcia hernandez if you travel from tagbilaran city,my mom's family is from garcia hernandez ..... mabuhay !!!!!!!!!!
We stayed one night in Jagna as I was tired and we found a decent place to stay.
I have had some issues with internet, poor or none several places we have stopped.
Thanks for the video! Have fun!
Thanks James.
Definitely high on my list of places I'd love to check out for possible residence. Another great informative video Sir Rodney I surely always 💯% appreciate your great quality work! That blue trike looked so clean it seemed virtually brand new! Another great travel video thanks so much!
Sincerely,
BM
Nice info-narration and by this i subcribed...
Thanks Joma and thanks for subbing.
Enjoy you trip. Looks nice there.
thanks for visiting my province sir..
So nice of you. I like Bohol and Tagbilaran Bugs.
Great video ! And I loved Bohol !
I have a new appreciation for Bohol after spending 7 days going around the island Joe.
Wisconsin hello ..good video . thanks for sharing pricing on ferry & bike rentals . salamat ...
Hello Charles. Did you get part of the April snowstorm? I just pass along info as I find it so safe travels.
@@AmazingPhilippines1 hi Rod ..
yep i got 7'' deep of tiny snow balls .
apx 1 hour south they had 15''-17''.
thaws are starting now , havent seen
any bears yet . salamat .....
Hi Rod ! Thanx for the meetup in February, that rooftop restaurant was pretty cool, stay safe ! Brian
Great video Rod! Good info for me for future use.
It isn't too difficult Jerry but it is nice to have some info about travel. There are other ferry companies with lower rates and slower boats also.
Thanks Rod, looks like I should visit sometime----looking forward to seeing more
We will be here about 1 week Clyde so it will be interesting....and expensive. LOL.
American expensive or Philippines---lol
Have a nice trip
Thanks Manuel. It is interesting....and can be a bit expensive, but it will be fun.
Hi Rod, very informative and interesting. I would love to do this sort of trip some day. Great tips around getting the tickets a few days early from a agent if possible 🙂👍
I enjoy ferry travel Pete as long as the weather is agreeable. There are other slower ferries with lower rates often times also.
Good to see so many signs in English and companies that I know. I just saw one for the California-Texas oil company gas station. In Australia we have plenty of McDonald's, KFC and Subway. We have no Denny's, Wal-mart or Jollie Bee. We have a few gentlemen in our church who are married to Phillipine wives who do give me a lot of information. In 2017 I was on a cruise ship Golden Princess which was very nice. Excellent buffet or if you choose many dining rooms. To protect Australian farmers we do not allow imports of pineapples or bananas. I am told the Hawaain pineapples are sweeter than the Australian ones. Do you know if the bananas in the US taste different to the phillipine ones? I do find your videos of great interest as I have only been in Manila one day and then in a bus up to Tagatay and back. Keep up the videos I love them for which I thank you. John Hutchinson.
Thanks John. There are a couple hundred types of bananas I think and several types found in the markets and stores here. The "common" one tastes pretty similar I think.
@@AmazingPhilippines1 Thank you for the update on my banana file, I had no idea. When visiting new Zealand the bananas on sale were shipped over from Ecaquador. I asked the grocer why don't you obtain your bananas from Australia, we have plenty. He answered be cause they are too expensive in spite of the shipping costs which I am sue would be because of Australian labor costs. You know we don't just work for peanuts the same as Americans too who expect a living wage for their labors. I remember after writing to you we had a drought or maybe a banana disease here about 15 years ago and there was a huge shortage of bananas. To make up the shortfall the Australian Government relented and allowed imports of bananas till the local supply was restored. I must admit that I didn't find any difference in the taste but I don't know if I was eating a local or imported banana. Thank you once again for your effort to answer my question. John Hutchinson.
Rod looks very clean and beautiful bright colors. Good job with your video. I've always been pretty interested in the American restaurants. Have you eaten at any of them I know you get around quite a bit
There is a Denny's and TGI Fridays in Cebu boogieman and I have eaten at both. They are not cheap but if you are craving western food, it is here.
Nice ❤️👻👍
Thanks for the visit
Another nice vlog. Like your videos. Still amazes me how inexpensive it is. $10 boat ride, $4 dollars taxi ride, .50 cent admission fee, a dollar trike ride. Please, I'm curious how comfortable can one live on $2200 US/ month?
I know they always say it depends on what lifestyle you choose. Well my lifestyle would be comfortable with no worries whatsoever. I don't have to live like a king but I don't want to live like a bum either. I believe a lifestyle like rod as would be great for me.
@@47boogieman67 For me a large amount of the cost has to do with the style of food I chose to eat. If you are happy with rice and chicken and or pork everyday then you can eat fairly cheap.
@@abehill9132 I believe I would be like you my biggest expense would be the food. I definitely can't eat all the Filipino type food that they eat. I would have to eat a lot more American type food and pay the price
$2200/month is more than enough...just an overview, apartment rental of $200 is above average convenience, food is $500, utility bills around $200(electricity, water, internet).... So the rest of your budget will be for your recreation/entertainment/investment, etc..... 😀
Thanks for the share -- brought back memories from May of 2019. My wife is from Bohol, and we are planning on building a house there in the next 5-10 years, although I am no where near ready to move there full time -- I still like the good ole USA. She already has land out by Mabini, so we'll build somewhere around that area as her family is from Mabini.
When we stayed there in April-May 2019, we stayed at the BLUE STAR DIVE RESORT bluestardive.com/ (even though we didn't do any diving because we were going back and forth to her parent's house in Mabini -- about a 20-30 minute drive). We didn't stay at her parent's house due to CR issues (well, lack of CR I am used to and normal shower) -- but if they get that in the future, who knows. Blue Star Dive resort was great place to relax -- nice pool and jacuzzi tub (not heated tub though). Room was very nice, but a little pricey (went at a time when many tourists come due to different festivals on the island, etc.).
I enjoy Bohol, and Tagbilaran is a fun city to visit.
Thanks for sharing your experience angryman and good luck with your plans. I have met several people who spend several months back and forth to their home and the Philippines.
nice video Rod. This island looks vibrant and full of life. I look forward to seeing more of your footage of this island. Take good care and your videos and commentary are much appreciated.
Thanks Randall. It is another new adventure.
Nice Video - Sea travel pace is fine... Why rush anyway? Looking forward to exploring to many of the places you have highlighted over the years.
Thanks AJ Stock. I enjoy sea travel.
Nice video.
Thanks Jack.
Go try the honey 🍯 bee 🐝 restaurant not sure where there but Finn Snow blog there said the food was really good and had a peanut butter mango shake..,
Thanks Layne. Honey Bee restaurant is expanding and adding several stores around the Philippines.
Amazing Philippines hey Rod , cool so you know of the restaurant then. Finn said on his blog the peanut butter mango shake was pretty good .. have you ever came across the Greyham mango shake ?
HI, OUT OF ALL YOUR TRAVELS IN THE PHILIPPINES, WHY DID YOU CHOSE TO LIVE IN CEBU, I HEARD IT MORE EXPENSIVE THERE AND CROWDED , I REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR WORK. IF YOU WOULD GIVE ADVISE TO ME, I AM LOOKING FOR A PLACE WHERE I CAN FISH OFF SHORE, MAYBE BUY A SMALL BOAT, AND IM NOT LOOKING FOR A GIRL FRIEND, I JUST WANT SOME ME TIME TO REFLECT , ALSO CHEAP RENT , WOW IM ASKING FOR A LOT BUT, THIS IS WHAT IM LOOKING FOR, THANKS AGAIN FOR YOUR HARD WORK
I don't know much about the fishing around the Philippines but based on all of the fresh fish in the markets, it appears there are plenty of options. I like the island of Bohol close to Tagbilaran and there are several towns around the island to choose from.
Nicanor Cuñado
Thanks Pablo.
Good video, Rod. $10 for a ferry ride is cheap. I definitely want to check out Bohol someday.
I like Bohol B W but I have only seen a little bit of it in my 2 other visits. We will be going up the coast in the next several days to see what we find.
Dear Rod, you needed to pay an extra fee for a bike exchange, if it breaks down? In our experience, we actually had 3 times problems with a rented motor bike. And they replaced it with another one every time for free. Hopefully they didn't scam you ... or we just had been lucky with the rental, don't know. Do you have other experiences of renting a bike in the Philippines? Was it always like this?
I have rented 2 times and basically, no issues Martin. Once, I changed from a manual to an automatic scooter. Gf didn't like the automatic but I did.
Thanks
Enjoyed your video Rod and have fun in Bohol
DO THEY HAVE GRAB , LOVE YOUR VIDS THANKS
I think Grab is only in Manila metro and Cebu but it may be in other cities as well. Things are changing. Uber was here a couple of years ago and others are trying to get into the market.
200 pesos ??? I hope you gave a big tip ! :)
Thanks Roland. This was quite some time back but a fun trip.
Hi Chris do you know how much we gonna pay for our car or track by boat going to Tagbilaran or Talibon Bohol?
I am not sure Wendy but I will try to find out for you. Thanks for watching.
You would have to use a RORO (roll on roll off) ferry so you could drive it on. A friend suggested it might be 2000-2500 pesos but I will try to get accurate info.
Rod, I see you're on vacation with some more girls. Lol, how many this time?
LOL. Only one this time James....but it is getting expensive. LOL.
@@AmazingPhilippines1 I bet she's younger, way ypunger...maybe find an older one that wants less stuff. Enjoy Rod, I love ur videos, ur the man.
She is middle aged James and much more mature and responsible than many of the younger ones.
@@AmazingPhilippines1 great look forward to your videos, they're entertaining & very informative too. I'm hoping to come there next year.
Do the boats have a smoking place for the smokers?
they should have a smoking place.thanks
Who’s we?
LOL. Her and I or me and she....I learned several years ago Steve that it is not good to include your gf in videos as you can spend lots of time trying to manage trolls.
