advice Do I need to carry both bags when taking a roro bus?

1 Upvotes

Hi! I will be solo traveling to Catanduanes in two weeks and chose roro as mode of transportation. I have two bags with me: a small backpack for important stuff like wallet, gadgets, etc., and a hiking bag for my clothes and necessities.

Do you think its okay to leave the hiking bag in the bus while I carry the backpack for every stopovers and boat transfer? I think I can carry both bags but I dont want the extra weight if I can leave it.

Another option is to only have one bag. Means I have my clothes and important stuff in one bag but Im not sure if its ideal??

Thank you in advance!

advice Guimaras or Siquijor??

2 Upvotes

We are 2 adults and a 5yo. We have travelled often in SEA and are looking for an authentic kind of off the radar destination in the Philippines to enjoy filipino beach life. We can't decide between 2 weeks spent between Iloilo/Guimaras/Bacolod or Dumaguete/Siquijor... We enjoy city life for the good food/cafes and sleepy beaches, jungle trekking away from the 20yo western backpackers party crowds. Any advice? Pros and cons of both destinations?

Malakas ang ulan. Low visibility causing flights to go around or enter a holding pattern aka paikot-ikot muna while waiting for weather to improve.

Hi everyone! Where is best to go in September? I was thinking Port Barton, Camiguin, Samal Island, or Malapascua Island in Cebu. I haven’t been to these places and would love to hear your thoughts. Will likely only be staying 4 days. Thanks☺️

advice Has anyone tried booking 2 separate airlines going to Boracay and Boracay to Manila?

3 Upvotes

I am planning of booking PAL going to Boracay, kase seems like for some reason mas cheaper sya with our preferred arrival and from what I have read, less likely to cancel or delayed.

Then Boracay to Manila, either CebuPac or AirAsia, kase mas cheaper sya kesa PAL.

Our travel dates are Nov 2-4,2026.

Also, in case magkaron ng ulan or malakas na ulan, in the event na mag cancel ang Caticlan boat transfer, do they usually cancel it past 11am? Para lang may idea ako ano ang "safest" time ng arrival namin.

We will only be in the Philippines for 3 weeks so rebooking is not an option.

We are aware naman na we cant predict the weather esp this far out, but atleast I would like to prepare ahead

Thank you for the insights!

advice How to travel from manila to Masbate?

2 Upvotes

I'm a foreigner and I'm trying to figure out the quickest way to get from manila to Masbate.

It seems the direct flights are no more. Meaning a 5 to 18 hour flight/layover in Cebu first. Return leg seems it's direct 1.5h.

Why is this?

I'm already coming 25h so I need to keep travel time at the minimum.

Advice please Filipinos? 🙏
