Glad you enjoy up North. I first came across your channel during your Baguio travel guide and what I like about your page is the simplicity and class at the same time. You captured beautifully and provides extremely good edits. Keep it up! 👍🧡

Hello Sir Ajel! salamat po sa support! 🍻

[@isaidimapotterhead]

Is there an entrance fee to the windmills po? Been following your vlogs on Ilocos as I plan to go there this year. Your vlogs have helped me decide that it's time for me to head up north.

[@aldenescabarte]

There’s no entrance fee po sa bangui. It’s like a public beach area lang hehe. Enjoy your trip sa Norte po 🤗

[@isaidimapotterhead]

@@aldenescabarte thank you so much. Very helpful po.

Pano kpag comute lang ung as in wlang car . . . Pwd ba mg jip jip jan? Ung kht di na kmi mg rent jan. Hehehe pwd jip jan pang transpo my dumadaan.

[@aldenescabarte]

Mahirap po mag commute honestly. I suggest mag rent po kayo ng van or car. Places like Bangui Windmills and Boejador ay need pa papasok sa interior road. Wala pong dumadaan na PUV. Ok lang po mag commute if within Laoag. Even sa sand dunes wala pong PUV.

[@maritesadvincula6764]

@@aldenescabarte mgknu ang bayad sa renta? Ilang oras at araw po un? Trcycle meron dn ba?

[@user-ie7tb7fi9w]

Wala na yatang jeep puro bus na lng sinasakayan Jan sa norte

[@Blister_G]

Hello po may itatanong lang po sana kung magkano magandang dalhin sa aming fieldtrip provided by the school na papunta sa Ilocos Norte? eto po mga pupuntahan namin. *Pagudpud *Bangui Wind MIlls *Kapurpurawan *Burgos Light House *Malacanang of the North *Paoay Church *Calle Crisologo Sa palagay niyo magkano kaya ang magandang dalhin sa fieldtrip this weekends, on budget lang rin naman po sana including snacks, souvenirs, dinner? Asap po sana, salamat!!!

[@aldenescabarte]

Hello po! Basically libre po yung mha sites na mentioned nyo po. Yung magagastos nyo lang is ang food and accommodation. Kahit 2k max each ok na po siguro.

[@Blister_G]

salamatttt!!!! @@aldenescabarte

[@DiaryniPanget]

Sir hindi po pwedeng maligo or mag swim sa Bangui Windmill dahil malalim po dyan kahit sa malapit lang not safe po

[@aldenescabarte]

Ah kaya pala, ganda pa naman ng beach. Salamat po sa info. 🤗

[@michellegracelargo8124]

Hello. Hm rental mo sa nmax po? Ty

[@aldenescabarte]

700 po min 2 days

[@khiko65]

Patapat bridge is not about the bridge it’s the magesticscenery from the bridge.

[@aldenescabarte]

Its about both

[@ma.kristinaesta7677]

best time to visit sand dunes?

[@aldenescabarte]

Shortly after sunrise or before sunset! ☀️ they open at 5:30am.

[@aldenescabarte]

Wag mid day kasi sobrang init po 🥵

[@louiewishingtin578]

Can you rent a tricycle?

[@aldenescabarte]

I think you can but I haven't tried. But tricycles are one;y ideal within Laoag City.

[@GUITARTIME2024]

Just English would have been nice.
