I have always been fascinated with this place. This coming May 19 - 22 we will be having our late "Summer Vacation" in Bicol. We already have plane tickets, but there's still a lot more to plan. So guys, I super need your help.
Can you give me suggestions/details sa:
- Hotel/Accomodation
- Foods
- Transportation
- Tourist Spots
- Souvenirs
- at kung anu anu pa.

ReplyDeleteso how was your trip in albay? mejo huli na itong comment. pero pepperland hotel in legazpi malapit lang sa airport yun. safe gamit mo dun.
ReplyDeletein case na bumalik ka sa albay heto ang hints:
tourist spots: embacardero, lignon hill (da best magpicture ng sarili dapat may araw pa at hindi maulap para kita ang Mayon), mayon planetarium (transpo is in tabaco city center), kawakawa hill (the best ito!sarap tumambay), resorts of Sto. domingo town, kung super rich ka check in ka sa Misibis, hoyop hoyopan cave (pwede na rin puntahan pero may kalayuan, transpo wise, dapat may sariling service), Busay falls (thrilling abutin ang lalim ng falls #2, 7 falls kasi lahat-lahat dun, cheap pa ang entrance 15-20 pesos), of course Cagsaua ruins!!! i almost forgot, Vera falls of Malinao ganda dun, destination ng mga globetrotters (safety precaution mag log in sa libro ng barangay as per brgy. captain order para swabe pagligo, walang worries! oops watch out for leech pero bihira lang naman, clear ang tubig dun, may mga animals (kamag anak nating onggoy) nearby, it is also claimed by d locals "enchanted")
souvenirs: punta ka sa brgy. Bitano ng legazpi city o kaya sa cagsaua ruins mismo. Pottery ng Tiwi, may kalayuan ang lugar pero meron kaming OTOP (one town one product) sa tapat ng gaisano mall mula sa left side nya para di ka na lumayo.
food: Pinangat (laing) in camalig or maybe you can buy that in legazpi city town center or kain ka sa Graceland, meron silang pinangat special dun(malang siram!!!!!!!!!); pili nut products (rampant bentahan sa bus terminal); bicol express (bili ka na lang dyan sa inyo [hehehe]); thumb-size longganisa ng Guinobatan (usually pang halo xa sa pancit, sarap! nakakapanglaway); kinunot na pating(shark) (madami sa turo turo, wala sa mga resto pero two-thumbs up ito); kung ayaw mo na mag libot-libot punta ka na rin sa Bitano yun may bilihan ng souvenir.
Night life: Bar 101 or bars sa Penarada Park both in Legazpi city. halo halo na din mga crowd doon.
picturesque views: embarcadero, lignon hill, kawakawa hill, brgy basud of sto domingo, cagsaua ruins.
Malls: LCC (dito ka na sariling amin ito!!!!!! meron sa legazpi at tabaco) and; Gaisano (after LCC tsaka ikot ikot dito, masmadaming choices kc). A.Bichara Silverscreen (cinemas and Bar 101), embarcadero (water-front mall, ganda dito parang pang-rich yet pang masa din)
Food trip: Tiya Bita (stall) - sikat na sikat ito sa locals. patok sa masa. operating lang sya paggabi.
Wifi: meron naman kahit papaano. Mag internet cafe na lang. meron din ata sa pepperland hotel ng wifi.
transpo: dyip dami!!! beware na lng sa mga tricyle drivers they ruthlessly charge their passengers with tantamount of charging charge of charge! (hindi ko naman nilalahat pero ganun talaga) pero dapat marunong ka makipagdeal sa mga tricycle driver! sabihin mo 30 pesos arkila papunta ng gaisano kung mangggaling ka sa pepperland) kung ayaw eh mag dyip kana lang - 1 or 2 rides lang minimum pay kada sakay.
sana makapuntaka ule.kung hindi naman, spread the words toyour family or friends who are planning to be here.
care to exchange links? hehehe
