A crazy 10 day trip to Long Beach Island in 2015, dedicated to relatives who go abroad for the first time
Crazy 10 day tour of Long Beach Island in 2015
Speaking of Long Beach Island, I've only heard about it all the time. In 14 years, because my colleagues mentioned going to Long Beach Island, my mind was very hot. I took Cebu air's cheap ticket to promote my trip to Long Beach Island one year later. Many people call it "Philippine long trip"
Booking time: May 18, 2014
Travel time: March 9, 2015
It's really a long time. I've lost the excitement of traveling for a long time^_^
We have 4 families and 12 people in our party. The team is a little big, but it's also a big team, so we won't be too lonely.
There's a lot of nonsense. Let's record the whole process of our trip in detail. If it can help you, please like it
First of all, let's talk about the air tickets
Almost every year, Cebu Airlines has a big promotion on air tickets. We order 1 Yuan air tickets, plus fuel and tax. The total amount of four round-trip flights for one person is about 1100 yuan, including luggage.
Because of the cheap air tickets, it must be the red eye flight. The departure time is 12:30 a.m. and the children are asleep.
I want to remind you that because of the cheap air tickets, you should pay for some luggage, because when you leave Long Beach Island, you will find that you just hate that you don't buy enough luggage.
Our luggage is:
trip
Flying from Shanghai to Manila is 20kg
Feikadikelan, Manila 20kg
return journey
Kalibo flies to Manila 30kg
Manila fly to Shanghai 35kg
Originally, we all bought 20kg. About two months before we left, we thought we'd better buy some more. Because Kalibo and Manila are very strict about luggage inspection, the cost of overweight would be very expensive, so we just bought a little more, just for the sake of dried mango, which I miss so much.
For the airport, I don't think I need to introduce more. Cebu Airlines doesn't need to change the terminal during the whole process. It's very convenient. As long as you've been on a plane, you must have no problem. If you've never been on a plane and go out for the first time, you can ask more. It's always right to ask more.
As for luggage, I still want to say a few more words. Because I have children, I think a little more about it. I'm afraid she'll be cold in rainy days. According to the strategy, it's humid and hard to dry in Long Beach Island. So I'm very worried that everyone brings 3-4 sets of clothes, including long sleeves and short sleeves. As a result, it's a failure. Even if I take the luggage, I'm reluctant to lose it. Because it's not cheap to buy, it's also money
In fact, the local clothes are incomparably cheap. They are so cheap that you can buy two T-shirts at 190P. They are all over the street. I regret it when I look at them. So, dear friends, it's better to bring a suit for the airport. It's better to buy other ones directly than bring them. The concept of 190P is about 25 yuan to buy 2 pieces. What's my mood!!!!
Let's talk about what we need to prepare
1. Drugs. Some of the people in the same trade are allergic to seafood, some are allergic to marine climate, so they must take allergy drugs. The local hospital is very poor, and there are few drugs. So it's better to take allergy drugs, diarrhea drugs and cold drugs, and don't take too many. If it's an adult, it's better to take a few. I made a mistake again, because I have a child, and I'm afraid she won't adapt to illness, As a result, I brought a big bag of medicine. What's the problem? The child is really proud. There's nothing wrong with it. I'm not willing to throw it away.
2. Mosquito repellent water. I brought two bottles of super mosquito repellent water bought from Thailand, but it turned out to be white. Local mosquitoes are only afraid of a brand of mosquito repellent water called off, which is available in local supermarkets, so I don't want to bring anything that fights with mosquitoes. It's tears to say too much
3. Snorkeling tools, elder sister, I bought them from Taobao. They are more than 200. It turns out that they are also wrong. There are so many local snorkeling tools everywhere that I don't need to take them with me. Because I bought them from Taobao, I'm not willing to throw them away, causing me heavy luggage. But I have to nag here. If you are small four eyes, just like me, you'd better buy them from Taobao, because there are no local ones with degrees, Don't take contact lenses to snorkeling, you will kill yourself. The sea is salty, you know.
4. Slippers, sister, I bought slippers for all three people. AI Xi, facts have proved that I am wrong again. I don't need them at all. Although Havana there is not very cheap, it is cheaper than purchasing on behalf of others. It's overwhelming Havana
5. It's suggested to bring a little rice. If you can cook in the hotel you ordered, you should bring a little rice and various condiments, because although there are condiments there, they can't be used up. It's a bit wasteful to use only a little rice. I'll talk about our cooking fun in detail later
6. If you have waterproof bags, you can take them with you. If you don't have them, you don't need to care about them. They are all over the place.
If you have children, take a thermometer
8. It's recommended to take two eye drops with little irritation, because the sand on Long Beach Island is the most beautiful white sand in the world, and also the most powdered fine sand. It's comfortable and can't get into your eyes when you play again, especially for children. Because we pass through 12 people, four children often get into their eyes. Fortunately, my eye drops can be washed at any time, otherwise you will be helpless when you go to the beach.
9. The purse is very important. Our travel is heavy, and the highest utilization rate is the purse. Because the US dollar is very thick after changing into peso, it's not suitable to put the purse, and we should always pay attention to the problem of loss, so it's very convenient to take a purse, whether to pay or play on the beach.
Let's talk about money and contact information
Qian: it turns out that it's better to take us dollars with you in China. If you change US dollars in China, you don't need to change pesos at all, because you can change them everywhere at the airport and on Long Beach Island. You can change them in whatever denomination you want.
Our family of three, a total of 3000 dollars
Contact information:
International roaming is not recommended, because 1. The network does not have 4G, so slow, so slow, 2 is more expensive, 9 yuan only has 3M traffic.
I bought a smart card, because it's cheap, the signal is good, and the speed is also very fast. The airport is 40p card fee, and I bought another 300p charge card, which can be used for 7 days, and the Internet is unlimited. It's highly recommended. The price is OK, not more expensive than on the island, so I changed my card in Manila, but I can only access the Internet for 7 days, and I can't make phone calls.
Let's make a list of my whole trip
The actual use of US $2400 is US $3000. Except for the 4-night hotel reservation fee, the air ticket is no longer included, and other meals and drinks are included.
Manila airport converted 2000 US pesos and 44 US pesos to 88000p
On Long Beach, 400 dollars, 44 dollars, 200 dollars, 44.05 dollars, 200 dollars
In fact, we really don't need to worry about this, because I calculated that as long as 44 is enough, more death is about 44.1, and the difference is only 10-20 RMB, so as long as you see it is greater than or equal to 44, you can change it.
Room rate: 10 nights, including 8 nights for villa and 2 nights for ordinary hotel, totaling about 7800 yuan
The cost of eating and drinking on the island: about 11000 RMB
Air ticket RMB 3300
Insurance 260 yuan
Visa 600 yuan for 3 persons
Pudong airport taxi 260
The total cost is about 22000-23000 yuan
We will introduce the daily itinerary and expenses in detail
About hotel diniviewvilas
I saw a lot of hotels before I went there, including Agoda, booking and strategy. Finally, I saw our villa on foreign forums. Chinese people live in this villa less, so I seldom see it in strategy. I thought it was a little far from dmall and S2, and I was a little worried. Facts have proved that this choice is super wise, Because my little friend went to Manila in the last two days, I ordered another hotel in the last two days. After comparison, I will love this villa more. This villa is called diniview villas
Near the famous Nami on Long Beach Island, halfway up the mountain, face to face with the sea, face to face with Nami, face to face with the sea, spring flowers bloom is a word I must say when I get up every morning
It is also because of the mid levels, so the scenery is invincible beauty, with a shot, are paintings!
It's just because it's halfway up the mountain, so the clothes washed every day will soon dry
It is also because of the mid levels, so there is no interruption, the rest is very good
It's just because it's halfway up the mountain, so there are few ants and mosquitoes. Later, I was disgusted by the hotels and ants I stayed in
Villa we live in moon room, the first floor is the function hall, can cook, can be leisure and entertainment, the ground floor is our guest room, can two families live together, oh, villa one day is more than 1600, so each only about 800, don't feel expensive, this price after you have been to Long Beach Island, you will feel really cost-effective, because the user experience is absolutely hotel experience.
Villa has its own swimming pool, sister, I used it for 2 days, and basically learned how to swim in sullen water!!
The other two of them live in sun's room. There is a monkey's nest over there. So every morning when they get up, monkeys come to greet them. It's very ecological and warm. Don't be afraid, because they won't hurt you. The room is bigger than us. We have one more bedroom. We can live in three families, but their pattern will be different. They are all very good.
Because our villa was unoccupied the day before, we checked in before 2pm. The welcome drink was very good, and the front desk staff was very good. Leilani was very enthusiastic and introduced the surrounding facilities and routes to us in detail
If you have a child over 4 years old and you can cook, it is highly recommended that you live here, because my introduction will make you yearn for it. In addition to beer and coke, all other food, drink and fruit are free in the refrigerator of the villa.
Next, I'd like to share our 10 day itinerary with you in detail. You'll understand every detail
The first day is March 9
At 12:30 at night, I wanted to drive to the airport, and then park my car in the parking lot around the airport. But because I haven't operated it and it takes a long time, I'm afraid there's something wrong with it. The parking fee is about 280 days, which is about the same as our taxi, so I finally chose to take a taxi
Due to the fact that Cheng's home is close to the South Railway Station, he went directly to the airport line 7 of the South Railway Station to the terminal 2. On the way, the children fell asleep.
The airport and my friends got to know each other for a while. The little friend from Nanjing went to the wrong building because he didn't look at the terminal information carefully. Everyone was familiar with it and began to check in at 10 o'clock. In this way, sister, I walked into the International Departure Hall of Pudong International Airport for the first time.
A little low, so still very excited, the children are active, all kinds of happy waiting for the arrival of the plane.
At about 5 a.m., when we arrived at Manila airport, we exchanged pesos, changed clothes, had breakfast, and waited for the transfer. Because we were afraid of flight delay, we bought the second flight ticket at 11:30 noon, and there were six hours of nothing to do. When we went there, we thought that it would be boring. In fact, we didn't have to worry about it. We had a chat, had dinner, changed money, and cleaned up our winter clothes, It won't be long before we check in again
Manila continued to fly to kadikelan. Because the plane was small and propeller, we didn't know whether to avoid other planes or what. It took about an hour to take off. Because of the red eye flight, we were so sleepy that we all fell asleep.
When the plane was about to arrive at kadikelan, there was a lot of excitement in the plane. We were all looking at the scenery outside. It was really beautiful. Looking at the whole Long Beach Island in the air, we immediately felt excited, blue sea and blue sky, and yearned for it.
When you come down from the airport, if you don't know how to get to the wharf, you don't have to be afraid and don't care about the rickshaw pullers at the door. When you go out and turn right about 50 meters, there is a small pavilion, which is a regular ticket office. You can buy Tutu tickets and go directly to the wharf. The Tutu ticket is 50p
When you get to the dock, you can buy the ticket directly. The ticket is 500p for three people. In this way, you can board the legendary crab boat. Long Beach beckons to you.
After getting off the ship, there are all kinds of cars, which sell tickets regularly, but you can still bargain. Our villa is on the mountain, and there are 12 people, so it's a big car, 200P
Along the way, your first reflection must be that this place is so poor and dilapidated. It's not as good as the rural areas of China in the 1980s. You'll be a little strange and disappointed. But when you pass by dmall, you'll feel much better.
When we got to the hotel and checked in, we couldn't wait to go to the beach below. The scenery along the road is just a picture
The kitchen of the hotel has pots and pans, knives and forks, etc., which can cook, and they are all Western-style, so we went all the way to the white supermarket and the green supermarket at the entrance of dmall. The supermarket is not very different, but the price. The green supermarket is usually the local people, and the price is cheaper. The white supermarket has more tourists, and the price is a little more expensive. How much is the price, I haven't compared them.
We bought a lot of food, drink, meat and so on, because there is no breakfast in the villa, so we have to make our own, pork, beef, eggs, rice (we didn't bring, bought the smallest package and didn't finish eating, and the local rice porridge is delicious, cooking is just The day passed when the condiment was bought.
On that day, we didn't have lunch because it was noon in feikadikelan, Manila. Maybe we were excited, maybe we forgot to be hungry after chatting with so many people. In the evening, we all put our chest on our back, found a family at random, and sat down to eat
The first time I tried the local mangoshake, it was delicious. It didn't mix with any water. It was very pure, and the dinner was delicious. Everyone was full of praise for the chicken. When I went out, I found that NIMA, we chose the restaurant of the hotel we were going to stay in. It's really fate ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!!!!!!!
The first day ended in such a hurry. The total cost is as follows:
Smart card 340p
Breakfast McDonald's 427p
Tutu 50p
Ticket 500p
Dinner 1200p
Supermarket shopping 1800p
Taxi back to Villa 100p
The next day, March 10
The main itinerary is to visit dmall and dtalipapa
Dmall is a pedestrian street for shopping. There are all kinds of shops, eating, drinking and Lhasa. However, if you want to buy souvenirs, it is not recommended to buy them in dmall, because the price will be much higher than that of dtalipapa
Datalipapa is a seafood market. You can buy prawns, crabs and all kinds of seafood you want
Let's talk about the price of all kinds of seafood
Daming prawns, dead, we bought 12 at 1000p, super big
Daming prawns, live one extra large and a little smaller, 800p
The big one of the female and the big one of the male is 650p, two of which are about 1kg
Grouper medium-sized 400p, asking price to 2400p Oh, bold also bar
Oysters 50p / kg
The biggest squid is 600P, and the middle squid is 200P
The next day, the loser man and baby bought a pair of glasses and a hat. The total price is 320p, which is basically 100p
Dmall bought two pairs of Havana, I and wa a pair, 2600p.
Hamburger for lunch 350p a meal
Dinner was bought by dtalipapa and processed with seafood. Because there were so many people, it was more reasonable to eat together. The total amount was 1700p
The seaside can also be braided hair, I and baby each braided a, 200P a person
The tattoo on the beach is also very good. It's painted, but remember, it takes about 2 hours to dry. After it's dry, wash it with water and go to bed again. My husband's Dragon 300p, I casually drew a small butterfly, 200P
It's not recommended to bring sand digging tools in China. We bought a sand digging tool and a swimming wristband. It's 500p in total
The third day, March 11, the day of snorkeling
Because before I came here, I saw that Xiaohei mark was mentioned in many strategies, so I added his wechat very early, but I didn't contact him all the time. I didn't expect that my peers also added and contacted him.
After going to the island, we contacted mark to help us arrange island hopping, BBQ, snorkeling and sea fishing.
The weather on that day was not very beautiful. It was very windy. The sea water was really clear. At a glance, we could see 3-5 meters below the sea. Because of the big waves, the sea fishing failed. We didn't catch a single fish.
Because of the big waves, snorkeling also failed. One of our 12 people could swim. He was snorkeling to see the fish. We were watching him on board. The children threw bread into the sea, and all kinds of fish came together
It's a pity that my sister was seasick because of the big waves. She vomited all kinds of vomit. She also fainted another elder sister and baby on board
Simply we gave up fishing, snorkeling, directly on the island BBQ.
Xiao Hei met with us the day before yesterday and told us that the ingredients needed to be purchased in advance. We started to be a little worried and didn't dare to give him the money for fear that he would never return. But after all, many people mentioned Xiao Hei mark, so we boldly gave it 4000p
Small Gang we cook, BBQ, we jump in the seaside Island, in fact, it is not us, is the only one, we can only say - --- Yang Jie, good!!!
How about lunch at noon, isn't it
The children picked up a lot of corals and shells. That's the end of the day
The cost of going to sea, 4 families, 8 big, 4 small, 12 people, a total of 10000p
The island fee is 200P, one person, child free
Snorkeling is 20p a person, child free
Day 4 March 12
I've always heard that Nami is very tall. It's the most comfortable place for lunch and leisure on Long Beach Island. I have to go there once
Originally, we went to have brunch. We had lunch directly. The total amount of two meals was 1633p
When you have enough to eat and drink, spa is a must. Nami's spa focuses on feeling and environment. Each couple has a room surrounded by music, facing the sea and blooming in spring.
The cheapest spa is 990p.
Of course, you can not do spa in Nami, you can do horse and chicken killing in diniwind beach. It's also very comfortable. The most important thing is that the price is cheap and the quality is good. 350p can do one hour's whole body.
My husband did it once at diniwind beach. I don't know whether she was too happy to chat with the massage aunt or she was lusty. She pressed it for at least 2 hours. Ha ha ha ha.
The activities in the afternoon were exciting
Parachute. Yes, it's true. Children can also play. Children over the age of 6 can basically get on. My child's alias is Liu Danan, who wants to get on the parachute. Because we have children, we choose the best company in the local area. 1200p is the best company for children. The parachute is the biggest one. Xiaohei on the boat is also very friendly. In fact, everyone in the local area is very friendly and enthusiastic, I like this very much. It's not like watching people talk in some places, meeting people who are in a bad mood and showing a face of debt. The enthusiasm of the people in long beach will make you feel embarrassed.
When the parachute was descending, we all thought it was over. Unexpectedly, Xiao Hei intentionally dropped us in the sea, but it was only half body. Don't be afraid. It just let you feel. It was very exciting and happy, very happy.
The parachute was over and the banana boat continued to sit up.
We played it twice, because the children thought it was interesting, but I suggest you take your swimming glasses, because the sea water is too bitter and salty, and the water is a little painful in your eyes, so we all keep our eyes closed when there is a splash.
In the evening, because of laziness, we chose dtalipapa to buy seafood for processing. Today, we are a family of three
500p bought six dead prawns.
800p bought two Live Prawns
100p bought 2kg oysters
200P bought a squid
The live prawns were processed in the shop, and the dead ones were brought back for lunch the next day
The cost is as follows:
Parachute 1200p per person
Spa2000p
Nami meal 1633p
Banana boat 250p one person
The processing fee for meals is 1019p. In particular, the processing fee for meals is calculated according to the kilogram, that is, what you buy is calculated according to the kilogram, so you can pay attention to the portion size when you buy, and try to buy according to the whole kilogram
In the evening, we went shopping in the supermarket
Mango 200P. Here's a special note. The local mango is really cheap. 80p is one kilogram. It's super sweet. We make mango shakes at home every day
The fifth day, March 13
After playing for 4 days, we decided to have a rest on the fifth day. Our friends went to Puka beach to pick up shells. We decided to play in diniwind beach, and then made lunch at noon
At this time, you will know how happy it is to find a husband who can cook. Brother, good
In the evening, we gave the baby to our colleagues. The elder sisters took three babies with them. All the rest of us went to the beach to watch the performance. On the weekend night, it was still very lively. All kinds of performances and activities, the tide of the whole S2 water was very serious, which directly revealed the dividing line
The bar by the beach is very cheap. All drinks and drinks are at the same price as during the day
Day 6 March 14
It's not easy to travel together once, so we decided to invite our colleagues to dinner in the evening, including our friends who came from a long way to Nanjing. Although we just met each other, we still fell in love with each other.
The expenses for the day are as follows:
Lunch at a German couple's house on diniwind beach, fried chicken with mushroom soup 547p
The horse killing chicken by the sea is the 400p that Aunt pressed for 2 hours
Two glasses of mangoshake 230P you have to drink every day
Oyster 230P
Streaky pork 470p
Potato 80p
Mango 230P
Roast chicken (pass by the roast chicken shop every day, everyone says they want to eat, but they don't have a chance) 2 380p
Day 7 March 15
How can you come to Changtan island without going to Luhuo mountain? 120P is the fee for going up the mountain alone
Luhuo mountain is the highest place in Changtan island. At the top of the mountain, you can overlook the whole Changtan island with blue sea and blue sky. Looking at the scenery in front of you, you certainly don't want to come back, and you want to stay in Changtan Island forever
There are a lot of things on the mountain, such as owls, eagles, monkeys, bats and so on, as well as those I don't know. Don't worry, they are all in the cage
But when you look at the monkey, you should pay attention. The monkey's arm is very long, and it will stretch out to catch people. The youngest baby in the same shape was caught by the monkey's hair, which scared us to death. Fortunately, there are many people, and the monkey was scared by us.
Day 8 March 16
On the 15th, my little friend ordered lunch with I love BBQ of dmall, and our lunch BBQ was solved.
It's equally divided among four companies, each with 700p. It's still very cheap.
In the afternoon, we decided to go back to swimming, so we walked back to the beach, along the beach back to the villa
Day 9 March 17
In the morning, my two colleagues, who live in sun villa, went to Manila and went shopping. The SM in Manila is still worth visiting.
Our two families of moon villa also checked out and went to another hotel they had reserved. We stayed in BaTiO
On this day, our main itinerary is shopping. Lunch was finished at the pizza shop on S2 beach.
Here we begin our shopping journey
Shopping, of course, go to dtalipapa and look for store 63, because this store is the cheapest one on Long Beach Island. Although a bag is 5p cheaper, it's also cheap
I bought some dried mangoes
I bought some mango balls
Homemade handmade soap is also good, but it's too heavy. I dare not buy too much. There are too many damn luggage
Coconut oil is also good. I saw the coconut oil used by Ma Shaji. Unexpectedly, the boss told us that we could drink it, nourish ourselves and cook it
There are all kinds of gadgets. If you have space in your suitcase, you can still have a look.
Day 10 March 18
I'm leaving tomorrow. I'm not willing to. At last, I went to take a Skywalker glide cableway. Here, I should pay attention to two kinds of cableways. They are all on the way to Luhuo mountain. One is that we sit on our stomach, and the other is that we sit like parachutes.
In the afternoon, we were still shopping and had the last supper with our friends
Of course, we chose the Great Wall Hotel, a restaurant opened by a couple in Shanghai. Many people have mentioned this restaurant. We also went to feel it. It's true that the taste of seafood is in line with the taste of Chinese people. It's very heavy. It's very good. I like it very much.
But I want to remind you that it's better to buy your own seafood for processing. Don't order it directly in the shop, so you can eat a lot more.
Finally, on the 19th, we left long beach, went to Manila and returned to Shanghai
We had to wait for several hours at Manila airport, so we went to SM. We could take a taxi directly from the airport. SM was super big, but we only had about three hours to go shopping because we were delayed. Because our peers arrived two days in advance, we learned that Lee's clothes were very cheap, and guess was very cheap, so we went directly to Lee
Men's jeans about 200 yuan, I really want to buy 10 pairs, but there is no place to put them.
T-shirts are about 90-110 RMB, and my husband bought two
Next, go straight to the second floor women's Lee
Jeans are still about 200, but my sister's figure is not good enough, only bought a pair of pants
T-shirt is about 100, sister directly bought 4 pieces
Pay the bill and go
Go straight to guess
My husband lost a belt and I lost a purse
The belt is about 300 yuan and the wallet is only 280 yuan. You can read it correctly. It's 280 yuan
Hurry back, board and leave. See you in Shanghai
A very happy trip, a very enjoyable trip, Long Beach Island, clean environment! People's enthusiasm! Beautiful mountains and beautiful waters, we must go again in our lifetime.
I love boracay！！
