[@majorpoint3977]

Lahat naman ata lugar sa provinces maulan. So make sure na lang na mahaba yung vacation days. Hehe

[@_luisaoliver]

True naman. Haha next time na balik. 2 provinces kasi to kaya super saglit lang ng stay.

[@EmChicoo]

Tawang tawa ako sa "final destination" 🤣

[@_luisaoliver]

HAHAHAHA! Kasi naman girl 😂 Yun lang talaga nasa isip ko habang naglalakad kami don hahaha

[@john9817]

Camiguin means Come Again. Balik2 mo sa isla nga maanyag ma'am. ❤😊

[@_luisaoliver]

Oo nga no hahaha! Wow thank you! Yes, hopefully soon and sa months na okay weather. 🙏🏻

[@marquijada298]

We locals pronounce Balingoan as Baling wan not balingo- an.

[@_luisaoliver]

Thank you for correcting me. Now, I know. 🙏🏻

[@bellegregory5885]

hello po sis!!! found you sa DIY group dahil sa el nido trip mo. gandang ganda ako sayo, ang ganda ng skin mo, and ang confident mo magsuot at magdala ng swimsuit. sana all!! 🥲🥲🫶🏻 anw, anong bago sa naia 3? 2022 pa huli kong lipad. el nido kami next month, anxious pa naman ako sa airport. huhu. what’s with self check in kineme? :((( hahahaha

[@_luisaoliver]

Hi sissss! Thank you for the kind words 💟 Self check in na po ngayon like sa Cebu Pacific even if may bagagge kayo. May mga kiosk naman don for self check in. Need mo yung booking reference then enter mo lang said screen and details na hinihingi. Once done, pila ka lang sa bag drop. Kung walang for check in, make sure na may boarding pass na. Meron din option for self bag drop pero mejo nakakalito pa hahah

[@WanderingChronicles]

natawa ako sa 13:43. hahahaha sorry na lodz LOL hahahahahah

[@_luisaoliver]

HAHAHAHAHA! Oki lang tinawanan ko din sarili ko dyan 😂

[@WhereStephyWent]

HI maam, glad to see your video about Camiguin! I have a question regarding white island tour, pde po bang magdala ng food & drinks if ever? saka hindi po ba naka stay yung bagka to wait for you? thanks!

[@_luisaoliver]

Hello! Yes, you can bring food sa White Island since walang nagbebenta don. And yung mga bangka hindi sila nagsstay don. So make sure na may battery mga phones niyo kasi kayo po ang tatawag or magttext sa mga bangkero if ready na kayo umalis don 😊

[@WhereStephyWent]

@@_luisaoliver I seeeee. Another question po, do you think it's better to just DIY or kumuha ng tour guide?Pinag iisipan ko po kasi talaga huhu since I'll be solo travelling next month.

[@_luisaoliver]

@StephyMacasaet hello! Gawin mo na lang yung katulad samin. Kaya ikotin ang Camiguin in 1-2 days.

[@mimoi4624]

Hello! Your video is very useful, planning to go in July for5 days, ask ko lang po kung ok po ba and SJ pabua for work? stable WIFI or phone signal? MBPS?

[@_luisaoliver]

Hello! Thank you for the kind words 😍 We dis not check yung kung ilang MBPS pero stable naman yung internet nila po. Good for working din.

[@gabquiros6397]

May I ask the complete number of kuya Ted po? 10 digits lng kasi nasa descrip box 😅 thank you

[@_luisaoliver]

Hala sorry po hahaha. Si Kuya Rey po pala siya. 09057700747.

[@chenggofent2948]

Ask ko lang sa pag download ng QR code : one by one to show And how about sa kids needs pa rin mag download

[@_luisaoliver]

Hello. One by one to show po. Not sure with the kids but prepare lang po kayo in case

[@angelusferrer9843]

Mamsh sa tuasan falls from entrance, my trekking pa? If yes, ilang minutes trek? Pede ba xa lakarin ng PWD?

[@_luisaoliver]

Lakad lang po. Wala ng entrance. Better to go there ng weekdays para wala masyadong tao.

[@angelusferrer9843]

Thank you so mucj

[@DianaraTorres]

24hours po ba yung operation ng port?

[@_luisaoliver]

Hindi po. Search niyo po schedule ng Super Shuttle Ferry from Balingoan Port to Benoni Port

[@catlynumbao3310]

for 2pax na po yung 12k po. thanks

[@_luisaoliver]

Hello. Per pax po. Mahal lang kasi plane tix ko. and that's for Camiguin alone and if you'll be coming from CDO as well. If you want ng full breakdown ng Camiguin and Bukidnon trip, check it here po: tinyurl.com/CamiguinxBukidnonExpenses
