When I woke up early in the morning, it started to rain like the Philippines. Fortunately, when we set off, the rain had gradually stopped. The next few days will be one-day tours reported on Taobao. Every day there will be a different tour guide and different companions. Andy, our tour guide on the first day, picked us up at the hotel early in the morning and set off.
First of all, the first item on the itinerary is zip lining. Unfortunately, it is still raining in Bohol, so I have no choice but to change the itinerary and go to see the Philippine national treasure tarsiers first.
According to the tour guide, tarsiers are nocturnal and sleep in trees during the day. The scenic spot is very small and there are only a few tarsiers. It only takes ten minutes to complete the tour. There is a specialty store surrounding tarsiers at the exit. (The cat at the ticket gate is very good)
Arriving at the zip line again, the weather has cleared up ~ Flying Duck! I wasn't very scared before I went to the battlefield. I walked along the mountain road to the hillside and walked on the stone path. Adrenaline surged and my heartbeat suddenly accelerated. However, even after reading the guide, I said it was not scary, so I comforted myself to calm down. When we were skating, we put on our clothes and instantly felt full of courage. Xiaohei's security measures were very good and they would ensure safety before setting off. Sure enough, sliding down at an altitude of 100 meters is very exciting, but during the process of sliding down, you can feel the cool breeze coming from your face and the scenery of the river passing by. It is not worth it. The price of the zipline is 400 pesos for a round trip, which is quite a lot. It only costs RMB 30 one way, which is quite a deal!
At the end of the zipline, check out the Nebo River boat meal. There were a lot of people eating, one boat could accommodate about 50-60 people, and they had a buffet. (Insert here: The fried chicken in the Philippines is very good. The Philippines has its own "KFC": Jelibee, which is much cheaper than KFC. I haven't seen it much in Bohol. There are many stores in Cebu.) There are snacks on the boat meal. You can sing in the dark and enjoy dancing at the stops. The whole journey takes about 2 hours, so you can tip yourself.
ATV was originally a project that I was looking forward to very much, but... I realized that it was not very friendly to girls who are weak and timid. There are single and double ATVs, which are said to be small off-road vehicles that will not roll over. It is recommended here that girls who are timid and weak are better off driving a two-seater car. Driving ATV along the way to visit the Chocolate Mountains. July is not yet the season, the Chocolate Mountains are still covered with vegetation, matcha chocolate... Because there are many forks in the road around, there will be a little black tour guide to lead the way in, and Andy will follow the car at the end to "pick up people" . The mountain road we drove in was very... rugged, full of large and small gravels and potholes. Because it had rained in the morning, there were still a lot of quagmires. Ah 3 chose a single-person ATV, and the probability of being splashed with muddy water was almost zero, but alone It is very important to control the direction of an ATV. It has three options: accelerator, brake, and gear shift (reversing). The accelerator is very powerful and it is easy to rush out. You need to hold the front of the car tightly, which requires a lot of strength! Watching the passers-by slowly passing me, I felt very nervous, but I was afraid of falling, so I kept driving with one leg! Every time we drive a certain distance, he will stop and take time to take photos for us. Xiao Hei will take the initiative to take various photos for us, and his skills are good, so he can give us a tip.
When you reach the end, there is a convenience store where you can buy coconuts to quench your thirst. After drinking, you can ask the clerk to cut the coconut in half and eat the pulp inside, which is also very delicious. On the way back, my hands had no strength. My friend who was traveling with me originally rented a two-person car. In order to show off their driving skills, the two boys drove into a single car. By chance, they got into someone else's two-person car, and it turned out to be a nightmare. Not long after driving, I passed through a mud puddle and was splashed with mud. My clothes were scrapped.
On the way back, our tour guide Andy chatted with us. The Philippines has thousands of islands, more than 100 ethnic groups, and a population of more than 100 million. Messians and Manilans are the two ethnic groups with a relatively large proportion. Most of them are Messians. Bohol and Cebu are very friendly to the Chinese because they believe that the arrival of the Chinese has improved their lives.
Stay at the Amorita Hotel in Alona Beach in the evening. It is the best five-star hotel I have stayed in in a few days. The hotel is very large and has two swimming pools and a private beach. All drinks and desserts provided in the room are free, and the hotel is very close to Alona Beach, which takes about 15 minutes to walk. I casually ordered a burger in a small alley and went back to the hotel for a swim~ It may be due to the American colonization in the past. The burgers in the Philippines are very delicious and will basically not make any mistakes, so you can rest assured. In addition, many stores support WeChat and Alipay payments, especially in Alona, where there are many Chinese-owned restaurants. On the contrary, traffic and mobile phone card signal are a big problem. The 4G traffic Globe card originally packaged in Taobao (a local communication company in the Philippines, similar to China Mobile, China Unicom, etc.) was shut down in 4 days... I feel that the billing method of traffic is different from that in China. It is recommended not to use Douyin or Weibo. , playing data-burning games and chatting on WeChat should still be enough.
