What militant do you support in Philippines..?
How to if I don’t have insta and FB?
manila to butuan airlines is cheap then take a bus to butuan to surigao then siargao..
Wow,So expensive,As if they are overpricing😊Hongkong to manila,not to expensive.😊
I’m also grateful for vloggers like you, who share these useful information 😊
thank you for this. you made what could be a stressful trip to be fun. if i ever do it i will have a good attitude and just enjoy it. not be rushed or be stressed. there were beautiful scenes
Hi Tal, good day there. Oh my, that was a very stressful journey. Here is another option Tal, which might be a good option for travellers with huge luggaes. If you are carrying huge bags and luggages, you just do the air-conditioned Bus like the DLTB or Philtranco Bus going from Manila Terminal to Surigao City or Davao via RORO. The Bus will take care of your luggages, you don't have to walk far carrying luggages to the cashier. Although it is RORO, the good thing is the port from Matnog to Allen, Northern Samar is much closer like only 45 minutes to 1 hour ferry boat, very convenient and the Bus will take you to the Southern part of Leyte in I think Liloan via the island of Samar and travelling by bus is great you will see beautiful scenic places along the way and the San Juanico Bridge and there are stopovers in provinces from Manila to Leyte for meals (home-cooked meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner and for CR), and the port from Liloan Southern Leyte to Surigao is much nearer that from Cebu to Surigao I think it will only take 1 hour. Total days I think is 1-1/2 days to 2 days only. The good thing is you can get your huge luggages and bags once the Bus reaches Surigao. Please take this option Tal, this the most convenient way for travellers and very affordable than what you went through. You will only pay one time for the Bus and the Matnog port and the Liloan port which is very affordable due to its proximity to islands. Enjoy and please make more beautiful videos ✨💖🙏💐🎉🌴🏖️
Caveat though. If you are not used to long/sitting for 24 hours and more then I suggest not to take this. The seat can also be uncomfortable, you might not be able to sleep or get some rest. Plus you will have to hold your pee or what not, until there is bus stop or drivers have to eat. Plus it can be crowded/too crowded for you esp for those that are new on this type of transportation here in PH.
Really 😂
@@cristinapalisa4449 Oh please come.on, if you can comfortably seat in an already super-compressed sitting area in a 20- to 24-hour nonstop airplane flight from the US to the Philippines or from Europe to the Philippines, how much more comfortable you can be in an air-conditioned bus which has a more leg space sitting area(you only need to bring a travel blanket because it is cold, but you can flip close your personal Aircon directed to you). And by the way, you can book all the 2-seater or 3-seater bench-like seat with all back and butt cushions you can own the whole seat for the whole ride to Mindanao for 3k plus pesos already included the ferry boat fare you will be given a ferry boat ticket in the port like Matnog and Liloan given by the conductor you just have to ask the driver and the conductor for it (we did it before and we put some of our important bags in that spacious 3-sitter seat booked for solo seat and I can even sleep comfortably in it), much more affordable than the 2Go travel and the Cebu hotel for stopover while carrying heavy luggages and bags going to and from. The bus ride is not like an airplane non-stop ride on air because if the plane stops on air everyone will be dead know what I mean? The bus has bus stopovers every meal time and even snack time in every town or province for meals and for CR. Bus driver will stop if you ask him if you want to pee outside. Please stop this wrong misconception about the bus ride to provinces. It is much more comfortable than the 20- to 24-hour plane ride from US or Europe to the Philippines. When in Matnog or in Liloan ferry boat, you can relax inside the ferry in an air-conditioned room with snacks. You can feel the luxury of being in an air-conditioned bus and ferry while listening to jazz music and watching the beautiful scenic nature in the Philippines. You can even stop and stay in a province, refund the remaining fare, rent a hotel and explore the lakes, beaches and mountains of the province, the people and food then go back to the same route provincial terminal where the bus stops over, and continue your ride. Easy right? By the way, the plane is crowded too, much more crowded than inside the air-conditioned bus. Only in the stopover where people meet from different buses but it:s nice you can meet and socialize with other people, unlike in the airplane you will just sit and sleep, eat sit with the same seat mate compressing you giving you difficulty going to the CR the whole time right?
Too long hours😊
Take a bus from Cubao Manila to Surigao. You can see a lot of scenery while traveling.
I can't travel so long. you are so smart and strong enough for carrying your back pack
Thank you for this very helpful info. and we're glad that you're back in our Country. Enjoy your stay brother.
I applaud and give you so much props for your extreme patience and ability to maintain a cool and positive attitude throughout this stressful process. I'm glad you made it to your destination safely!
Thanks for posting. Im planning my trip to Siargao this November
Siargao is becoming Expensive maybe because there's a lot of foreigners there They thought foreigners owns the bank much money .
Hahahaha there are alot foreigners in Siargao for sure
The law of supply and demand makes everything expensive.
Thanks for all these info. Will try it one of these days when I visit.
Please do!
Im a filipina. Thanks of the information. Going Siargao next month .hope so
Thank you for sharing this‼️
Watched with my fam. At first we were intrigued-excited, but as we watched, realized this route requires alot of patience, endurance, physical strength (some qualities we are still striving to have) 😂 Sir, you just earned our mad respect. Subbed 👍🏼
You are soooo patient. Take care tal.
Tal i love what you are doing you are brave that looks like small cruise ship 🚢 my friend make sure you are always wearing your life vest while in the ocean. Stay safe my friend.
Nice to saw you again tal
Man, hats off to you. 🙌🏽🤠
This is quite the comprehensive guide
That ship you’re on is as big as a mall 😅
2023, flew to (from MLA >) Butuan City, then took the bus to Surigao City, SDN, then boarded a ferry bound for Siargao IAO
CHEAPER (than Batanes) but EXHAUSTING 😅
CebuPac also flies to Surigao City, so, that’s another alternative
Appreciate the nice comment brother
It really takes time to endure the long time travel by ship from Manila to Siargao. Tal you're tireless hardworking guy, appreciate it.
Thanks for sharing your trip …, The ship was huge like you’re in a short cruise vacation . When I was young , I remember going to Bohol in a ship that took us 2 nights and 3 days with 2 or 3 stop over … looks like fun to travel now by boat . I will try to do that on my next vacation the price is not bad too … watching from California…
thank you for showing the port of surigao to siargao, and how its done.
I gotchu
Thats crazy the air fare to Siargao is bout the same going to Japan
Must try to visit to siargao , cause it’s a paradise and not just same in any kinds of beach in PH
That puts me off enough - thank you.
Wow Nice Tal 👍👍👍💪🙏✌️👌
now im intrigued
Omg shared bathroom. 30 years ago we have this ship Negros Navigation from Bacolod to Manila we always stay in the cabin & we have our own Bathroom
wow Tal...nice experience...hehe...Its a cutie pie 😁...your more Filipino than me because you did that.
New subs,❤i'm not frm Siargao,Thanks for loving my country,😊
What a nice room
Thank u❤
Wow! What a long and tiring journey 😅 I admire your patience and perseverance, though ❤❤❤ welcome 🙏 🤗 home Tal 💋 😘
Wow, that’s better food than in domestic plane. I’d like to try that ferry ride
I miss you bro!! its been a long time since i last saw your vids.
Hahahahaha! You’re a trooper. I’d be livid regarding private room “confusion”. Classic philippines. Rampant delays on land, air, and see. So grateful my mom brought us to good ‘ole usa at a young age. Visiting the country is all about I can take over the years, and definitely not for too long 😂
great experience
It really is!
If your vlog is updated the reason why there's such a crowd in ports is because it's gonna be Holy week, Filipinos(christians or non-christians) take advantage of the longer holidays to go back home and spend the holidays with their families, same as All Saints' and All Souls Day(Nov 1 and 2) and Christmas, remember those dates if you want to avoid crowds
I don’t understand, why can’t passengers pay the ticket and terminal fee in the same counter or next to each other?
Yes indeed, Its not ideal, its not fun the experienced of travel by boat, was an ordeal. liked the indepth video.
your back in PH
siargao is almost never in the travel itinerary of us Filipinos because it is expensive
Ordinary Filipinos will skip going to Siargao since it’s mostly for surfing but unless they want to surf it’s the place to go and yes, it’s expensive from accommodation itself
Most hotels in Makati can print your ticket. Some are free and some charge a very small amount may 25 cents.
2024, and paper copy is still needed. WOW. Continues to be archaic, inconvenient, and still killing trees. Totally not surprised
❤❤❤
Siargao welcomes you back 🫶🏼
Youre one of the Israeli living in the Philippines
Hey, you have a Steam Deck. Awesome device. I'm saving for the OLED one.
It's great!
Thats one of the problem with tourism in this country especially for locals. They charge even the locals the same as foreigners. A lot of locals haven't been to this and that place because of the crazy prices to even go there, thats why locals would opt to go to Thailand, Vietnam, etc. because its much cheaper than going/exploring your own country. Price for foreigners and locals should be different or at the least if a foreigner has/have been staying here for how many years, they just need to present a valid residential I.D to avail the local price. Ive been to Thailand and saw that the price of tourist spots, temples etc., tourist and local fees are different and not the same.
salute to you tal for having a long patience.. as a filipino my last boat ride is 20 years ago when i was 14 yrs old going to manila from cebu it was a very stressful trip..
Next , To Have It Printed for FREE , Go To Any SM Malls and Proceed To The 2GO Business Center
Okay, before you to the south, go to the provinces of Pampanga, Baguio, Pangasinan, La Union, Abra, Ilocos Sur, Ilocos Norte, Cagayaan Valley, Batanes, Isabela, Aurora, Nueva Ecija, Bulacan, Zambales an back to Manila, then go to your home in the south..
Wow
🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
Hey, i'll be going to siargao on april 29 by cebpac and planning to ride a ferry going back to manila. May i ask how many days will i spend on riding a ferry siargao-cebu-mnl. This will be my first solo travel. ❤
I might have missed it, but how much did it cost in total?
There's a 2go trip from manila to cebu to surigao up to gensan and davao.. you dont need to transfer.. why you cut all your trip while there's one trip with multiple stop over but one ship only? Im just wondering. Im from Davao
Hi Tal, is Pesach in April?
Or ask someone at reception where you are staying to print what you need? Or any hotel or office they may be willing to help
Masagana. It means bountiful in Tagalog. 😊
yes it is or it can also means prosperous
Use the hotel reservation office to print.
Maybe ask around where you can find xerox place.
The Siargao logo
Difficult Journey leads to beautiful destination🎉😂Mabuhay Feelippines
I think a bridge gonna be built from Manila to Samal Island
I wanted to ask: why do you have to carry around with you during your ridiculous trips when you know what will be ahead.. as a suggestion, correct me if am wrong, have you ever consider doing door to door shipping of your luggages beforehand so that you don’t have to be carrying around your luggages which can also be frustrating
What I would like to know is if I show up to the port with a lot of personal luggage and cargo will they weigh it and let me take it with me? Of course for a price
After watching this, I have decided to go with the 20k flight 😂😂
or manila to cebu which is cheap. and book cebu to siargao which is also cheap
How much the ticket the ferry bro
I would do the same if i had a lot of time. But port areas are scary and im cebuano. Some persons will meet you at the port saying they are looking after you when you get out of the port and then ask for money! Happened to me in the 90s. Never tried the ship from then on. And it happened in broad daylight.😢
A lot has changed since the 90s. Ports are a lot safer now.
Big ferry
😀... Bro, make a photo shoot by your phone the ticket for security... Management INTENTIONALLY doing unconvinience to be abled to PAY more EXTRA.. 😮Management can make ALL IN ONE services for easing the STRESS lobbying BUT they make it HARD for the passrngets.. 😢
KUNG BECOMING EXPENSIVE ANG MGA BAGAY, DAPAT LOCALS AND FOREIGNERS PAREHONG MAGREKLAMO SA NAMUMUNO PARA MAPA IMBESTIGAHAN
Yes exactly
Dapat lang.Sana isipin din nila.❤
Waya na baja barko diritso surigao kay moagi pa man sa cebu?🤔happy trip sir🤔
Can you bring a motorcycle?
Yeah, that terminal fee aka "corruption fee" is pervasive in the Philippines at all entry points.
Yay haha. Sharing a room with a stranger and with an opposite sex?! Kalain man sa 2Go, what if dili cool imong ma-room partner, basig nyakis 😂
So ferry food is worse than airline food. That and the incessant karaoke noise onboard plus the wacked reservation system makes ferry travel a no-go for me.
As stay at home,,or use your private plane,or ship.😅
at malls
No blankets! It just gets worse!
What happened to the previous name man?
It long painful trip.😅
Terminal fee should be included in the fare
Look for any sophisticated internet shop
They should have put that Karaoke in a private room so that others who wants silence can enjoy the trip.
are the foods on the ship kosher?
Of course not
Nope
What's the point of their app with the QR code and they make you print it out.
Hahahah lots of things here don't always make sense, just don't ask too many questions, have a smile and you'll get bt just fine
Sana isipin ng mga tga siargao na yung karamihan ng foreigner dyan ay nk budget tours kya nga sa mga turo turo sila kumakain,
😂😂😂😂 Alam mo ba kung sino nag papataas ng presiyo dun, gaya ng ibang island tourist destinations? Mga foreigners din! Lalo na sa siargao, 9 out of 10 ng businesses diyan pag ma may-ari ng foreigners!! Which means, mga taga labas lang din ang mas nakinabang kaysa natives na nandiyan sa mga isla na yan. Pumunta ka sa panglao, el nido, coron, sobrang mahal mga bilihin. Kawawa mga natives diyan. Mabuti sana kung may pera sila pang capital sa negosiyo na main target mga turista. O kaya mabuti sana kung naka bingwit sila ng mga afam para masama sila progress ng lugar. Eh hindi naman!
that electric post is about to topple and could kill a motorist or pedestrian one of these days...
You were taken out of a whole "queue" by 3-4 people and taken out of the terminal and asked for 500 pesos as fees? 🤔
Sana kahit marami mga foreigner sa siargao dapat mura lang sana
Grabe na sila ,di namn lahat maraming pera ang mga foreigner😊nagtetake advantage din yung iba.bussiness dun😊
it's exhausting watching the mishaps in your video....the mistake with the room, the mediocre food, etc..etc..i lost patience....hoping to see more positive experiences for you
'Promo sm'
bummer #2Go
So that is not Manila to Siargao. Its Manila to Cebu. Then from Cebu you take another ferry to Siargao? You have to pay another fare. Not good
How would she know that she doesn't snore? ... Unless: 1) her friends/family told her, or 2) she recorded herself. ... (THERE!) 🤣
Cokaliong Shipping Lines is the worst in the World.
Chinese owner is the most stingy business owner ever.
😊... 👏👏👏🤞❤️🧔🤳
Really annoying procedures. 😢
VERY CRAZY specially if YOU had a bounced of carrying... A RESTLESS management system on the Ferry... 📣🔊
He got lucky caus GL was probably hot
I can't believe they put a man with a woman in the same room! Omg! I wouldn't be ok with that!
You share with an opposite sex? Sana all
Surprise! Haha they weren't informed. That would have been a bit awkward and uncomfortable for others.
Hi Tal, National bookstore has printing services too. Enjoy & safe trip & cruise to Siargao. 👍⛴🛳🛥🚢 Also, isn't yhere a 2GO ship straight to Surigao City or Butuan City? Unless you want to stay in Cebu. 😊That's a beautiful ship unlike many yonks ago. Will try this one day. Thanks.
What they issue for 'another ticket' is actually a boarding pass.
