I have visited Boracay on this trip. I have read many positive things about Boracay, but it is one thing I had not read about, which surprised and disappointed me: The trafic. Not so many cars, but many tricycles and motorbikes. Alongside the walking path along the white beach, these motorbikes were not allowed, but on the mainroad, it was worse than beeing in Manila! I had to walk (or use tricycles)on this road every day from my hotel (when transport was not available from the hotel) Paradise Bay. This hotel is situated in a quiet bay 15 minutes (walking) from white beach. A very nice place, quiet.
Beautifully situated. All the rooms had beautiful view over the bay, with palmtrees in the foreground. On the white beach you melt in the sun, but on this place, with a nice breeze, I think it is better. But a disadvantage is the distance, but the price for a room for what you get in quality, is very good. Similar quality on the white beach would cost the double of what you are paying at this place.

Taxis are cheap and easily available...you might have to insist for the driver to use the meter otherwise most drivers are friendly and willing to help...Chatting in English is not a problem. Even if you do not like pipe organ music, going to Las Piņas to see the only bamboo pipe organ in the world (early 19th century) and listening to the wonderful sound of that magical instrument (9 o clock or 13.30 pm) is highly advisable.

Manila, while short on tourist sights, turned out to be one of the great shopping cities of Asia, with varieties of goods and first class restaurants at prices 50 percent less than any other major city in the Far East.

My cousin took me to Malate, the place is cool and there are good clubs and beautiful GRO's. Before my departure to the U.S, I met my old friend back at the hotel to have lunch at the hotel lobby, the pancit and the BBQ chicken are great.

Only challenge I have is the location of the hotel. It is not safe to walk outside after the sun sets. Too many touts soliciting for numerous stuff.

Always allocate extra time for travelling as traffic conditions may cause delays.

The tourist office was very helpful and had a wide selection of trips locally, within the Philippines and abroad. Local knowledge provided by the staff proved invaluable.

This hotel is good for people who have to catch a plane the next day since
it's quite close to the airport - airport car service is quite overcharged (550 peso
for a ten min. ride).

A driver was hired to take us around Manila as he was familiar with the city and surrounding area. We visited the zoo, most of the local malls, and ate at a restaurant that served local cuisine. Everyone we met was very helpful and friendly and made sure that our stay in Manila was enjoyable.
