I enlisted the Tanay Group Tour for our company outing this year. My father-in-law said that Tanay was very similar to Baguio, and looking at the photos, I was intrigued by the fact that a slew of activities can be done in just one day. We departed Manila on time at 4am. It was still […]
I have just returned from a brief trip to Davao, and these are the things I love about the city. 1. The taxis are pretty honest. Compared to Manila’s dinky taxis, most drivers here use the meter and don’t get you lost to charge more money. If they overcharge you, you can report them to […]
Today is Samal Island day! Pickup was at 8am, but it’s I overslept. Kuya Alex was kind enough to not mind. We headed to the roro dock to Samal Island (Fee: php200), which was an hour or two of waiting due to the Saturday traffic. Good thing Kuya Alex’s company was good. We bought some […]
I was in Davao this weekend for a little R&R. Given the last minute trip arrangement, I booked the service of Kuya Joey Davao on the last minute. Surprisingly, he was able to book me a tour and also arranged for our airport transport to the hotel. We arrived in Davao at 6am via Cebu […]
We slept on the way there but these were the scenes we saw in Chesky Crumlov, a UNESCO world heritage site since 1992. Let’s first start with a map of the area, showcasing the river that encircles the town. The entrance which looks like an aqueduct. Isn’t it impressive? As you can see, it was […]

We signed up for The Taste of Prague, the #1 food tour in Prague according to TripAdvisor.com. It’s not exactly cheap so we came with really high expectations. We were warmly greeted by Karolina, a 39-year old mother of two who has been food’ng with The Taste of Prague for awhile. Apparently, the group consisted […]
We started the tour in Mala Strana area where the aristocrats lived. It’s closest to our hotel so it’s the best place to start. Following the alley, we passed by the John Lennon Pub Restaurant. On its right, you can see the water level. In 2002, there was a flood and the water level reached […]
We used Turkish airlines this time, and it’s an 11.5 hour ride to Istanbul where we will have a lay over to Prague. Turkish Airways had a decent legroom, an average meal and so-so service. They gave the kids a toy pack so that was really nice. Here was our mea of stir fried beef […]
