TRAVEL TIPS

BEST TIME TO TRAVEL TO BOHOL

January and June are a good time to visit Bohol. January to March, the rice fields
are still vivid green, everything looks fresh and photo ops multiply.

WHAT TO PACK
Landscapes are incredible and adventure activities are a must, so make sure to
bring a camera with you. Pick light, comfortable and breathable clothes. A light rain jacket
is also recommended since we never know when the occasional storm will appear. Other
than that, bring sunscreen.

HOW TO GET TO BOHOL

The fastest and easiest way is by plane. Cebu Pacific Air, Philippine Airlines (PAL),
and AirAsia Zest operate multiple flights from Manila to Tagbilaran City, the capital of
Bohol. Travel time is around 1 hour and 15 minutes.
You may also opt to travel by boat. Tagbilaran City Pier is the destination of several
ships coming from Manila. There are also vessels from other parts of the Visayas
including Dumaguete and Cebu. If you are coming from Mindanao, you may hop on a
boat to Bohol in Cagayan de Oro and Dipolog. There are also boats from Camiguin but
the destination is Jagna in the southeastern corner of Bohol.

WHERE TO STAY IN BOHOL

• Kew Hotel
Kew hotel is in Tagbilaran City, Kew Hotel - Tagbilaran has a bar and a terrace. Among
the facilities of this property are a restaurant, a 24-hour front desk and room service, along
with free Wi-Fi. Certain rooms have a kitchenette with a microwave, a fridge, and an oven.
Continental and à la carte breakfast options are available each morning at the hotel.
Panglao Island is 19.3 km from Kew Hotel - Tagbilaran.

PRIVATE CAR CHARTER

Ask any local, the best way to get to most, if not all, of Bohol’s top attractions is
through a private vehicle. You can book a private car charter through charter and simply
input the dates you would need it and you will have a personal driver throughout your trip.

 • BOHOL BIRDS AND BUTTERFLY KINGDOM
