点评:I am taking the time to write a review because as I was planning on my trip, there was little if not no information I can find on the net.
Whenever I visit the Philippines, I always try to have some beach holiday. This time it is the Gigantes Islands. Me & my sisters traveled from Manila to Roxas City. I just concluded for myself that Roxas City is the most convenient airport to start our trip. This is specially if you don't want to waste your time. We flew Cebu Pacific. Careful guys, I booked 1 20kg baggage allowance, but we only brouht cabin trolleys. We were not allowed to check in 2 bags that equals to 20kg. Unlike last year, we could. We decided to have the 2 bags cellophaned together. Cost 200P. We got to check it in as 1 bag.
As you leave Roxas City airport you can find a queue of tricycles with a fix rate of 100P/pax, that can take you to the Bus Station or Van Station going to Carles. Carles is where the Island hopping boats start from. We opted for the van as this is quicker with less stops. I'm guessing it is a 12 Seater & the fare is 100P/pax. The van leaves when it is full. So, they don't really follow a time table. But there are enough vans waiting one after the other.
We were staying Solina Beach & Nature Resort. I love the resort! The place is very chill. Breakfast buffet is amazing with lots of choices on food for everyone. Dinner was also good. Portions are for sharing with 2 persons. Prices were reasonable.
The hotel booked our Island hopping tour. We went for the joiners, which cost us 999P including drinks & lunch. We were brought to the pier. The staff at the pier were well organized. The formalities were arranged by the hotel crew, we only had to wait at the waiting room until it was time to board the boat.
Tour was okay with 5 island stops? Touristy as it is. The level of adventure 7 out of 10. One time we had to walk for about 200 meters to the shore because it was low tide & the boat couldn't anchor nearer. Lunch was good, fulfilling the promised unli-scallops! The level of adventure/hike was not as taxing as El Nido islands. All in ll still worth seeing.
We spent 3 days in Carles, the took a van from the bus station to Iloilo City. There were no traffic, it only took us 2 hrs to get there.
Iloilo is great mixture of an urban new city, with a few old spanish homes. Lots of restaurants, malls, & cafes to hang out. Excellent infrustructure & lots of taxis!
Hope you get some tips from my review.
翻译:我花时间写评论是因为当我计划旅行时,我在网上能找到的信息很少,甚至没有。
每当我访问菲律宾时,我总是尝试去海滩度假。这次是巨人群岛。我和我的姐妹们从马尼拉前往罗哈斯城。我刚刚自己得出结论,罗哈斯城是开始我们的旅行最方便的机场。特别是如果您不想浪费时间的话。我们乘坐宿务太平洋航空的航班。小心点,我订了1个20公斤的行李限额,但我们只带了随身手推车。我们不可以托运2件20公斤的行李。与去年不同的是,我们可以。我们决定将 2 个袋子用玻璃纸包装在一起。费用200P。我们必须将其作为 1 件行李托运。
当您离开罗哈斯城机场时,您会看到一排固定价格为 100 比索/人的三轮车,可以带您前往前往卡尔斯的巴士站或货车站。卡尔斯是跳岛游船的出发地。我们选择了面包车,因为这样更快,停站更少。我猜这是一辆 12 座的车,票价是 100P/人。车满了就开走。所以,他们并没有真正遵循时间表。但有足够多的货车一辆接一辆地等待着。
我们住在索利纳海滩自然度假村。我喜欢这个度假村!这个地方很冷。自助早餐很棒,有很多食物可供选择,适合每个人。晚餐也不错。部分适合 2 人分享。价格很合理。
酒店预订了我们的跳岛游。我们去的是木工,花了我们 999P,包括饮料和午餐。我们被带到了码头。码头的工作人员组织得很好。酒店工作人员帮我们办理了手续,我们只需在候船室等候就可以上船了。
行程有 5 个岛屿停留,还可以吗?旅游胜地就是这样。冒险程度为 7 分(满分 10 分)。有一次我们不得不步行约 200 米到岸边,因为当时是退潮,船无法停泊在附近。午餐很好吃,兑现了承诺的扇贝!冒险/徒步旅行的水平并不像爱妮岛那样费力。总而言之还是值得一看的。
我们在卡尔斯呆了三天,从汽车站坐面包车到伊洛伊洛市。路上不堵车,只用了2个小时就到了。
伊洛伊洛是一座新城市和一些古老的西班牙住宅的完美结合。有很多餐馆、购物中心和咖啡馆可供闲逛。基础设施优良,出租车很多!
希望您能从我的评论中得到一些提示。
