2 Weeks in The Philipenes


I thought i'd post my itinerary and how I got from a-b in case anyone is planning a trip to the Philippines themselves and would find it useful! Deciding how long to stay in each place and how to get to and from a location is usually the hardest part so I hope this helps (: I've included a total of how much everything cost but keep in mind we did not budget at all on this trip (other than for the flights) and it was peak season so we easily could have spent half as much as we did.
