3 in 1week-100 ISLAND – sagada -Palaui Day 1

May 26 2014

I was so excited for our trip. We had a budget of 7000each for all the trip. We prayed that everything would go well. We left home around 4am. Arrived the five star bus terminal around 5am.

Our bus bounded for alaminos pangasinan left around 5:30am. Bus ride was 395pesos. It was a long drive to alaminos. We arrived at 11am. When we arrived at the terminal. We got a tricycle going to Brgy Lucar wharf for the hundred island escapade. Ride was about 20mins, cost 70pesos. We prayed to God that we find a companion for the hundred island tour. We register at the tourism office. Entrance fee was 20pesos per island. We were giving options.

Map

With just the both of us, we were expecting to pay about 400pesos. With the 800day tour it would Include only 3 developed island of our own choice and also get to choose which island we could stay for a while. If we would choose service boat of 1400. It’s gon be unlimited island. Since we were on a tight budget, we asked the tourist agent that we would like to join other tourist in their boat and we would also share in whatever tour package they chose. We got lucky, we were able to find a family of 17 tourist who are willing to include us. They chartered the day tour which includes only 3island tour and beach stay at children’s island. They got 2boats worth 2000pesos good for 10perspn per boat. 2000persons shared on 19heads. We were required to pay just 105pesos. Tipid noh,… Hehe
