Travel guide to Cebu, Philippines: Olango Islands, Moalboal, Oslob
Preface: This guide mainly introduces how to play around Cebu, including the Olango Islands, Mobo, and Oslob, which is suitable for a week's play. The following is a detailed introductionFirst introduce the issues of air tickets and visas
Air tickets : There are direct flights from China to Cebu, Philippines. Among them, the flight from Hong Kong should be the cheapest. In the off-season, the price is only less than 300 yuan one way, and in the peak season, it is only 700-1,000 yuan. I usually go to Qunar.com or Buying on Fliggy is very convenient!
It is recommended to buy a direct flight. Transferring is quite troublesome and tiring. When traveling, it is better not to spend all your time and energy on the road. You will not save a lot of money.
Visa: Philippine visa application is relatively simple. Find a travel agency that handles visas on Taobao and submit the information as required. That’s it. It only costs more than 200 yuan to apply for a visa in 7 working days
It is recommended to choose the price for simple materials. Currently, the 7-day application is quite cheap, only 215 yuan
Next, let’s talk about after arriving at Cebu Airport
Mactan Airport in Cebu is a small airport. When you go through customs at the airport, you may When asked about the purpose of your visit and the name of the hotel, just prepare it in advance. Generally, you won’t ask more questions
After leaving the airport, you can buy a recharge card and a SIM card (free, no need to show your passport) , apply for a package, etc.
Then take a taxi to the booked hotel to rest.
Regarding the choice of hotel, I recommend staying at the seaside. The price of a seaside hotel with a swimming pool is only 400-500 yuan. You can book it on Ctrip or Make a reservation on agoda, or stay in our apartment near the airport (a 15-minute taxi ride from the airport). You can chat privately
The following is how to play
Olango Island Hopping
One-day tour: Olango Island Hopping Tour is How to play an attraction, you can visit 2-3 islands in one day. Remember these islands, Shiseido Island, Nalusuan Island, and Gilutongan Island. The estimated play time is 6 hours: Here are two ways to play: 1. Report The local travel agency, for more than 5 people, costs about 380 yuan/person, which is relatively trouble-free. You don’t need to worry about all the arrangements; 2. Charter a boat to jump to the island by yourself. This is a bit troublesome. First, you need to go to the pier in Mactan, such as Hilton Pier, charter a boat, the price depends on the size, generally ranging from 2500p-7000p. You need to pay a certain island fee to land on each island, the price ranges from 100-300p, there are also snorkeling equipment rental and other fees (preferably Brought from China), the above picture is for viewing

Moalboil Sardine Storm
Every time I take a group to Mobao, no tourist says that Mobao is not fun. As long as I go, I believe it will be an unforgettable trip
How to get there? Two ways: 1. Take a bus from Cebu South Bus Terminal. The cost is very low, but it will be quite a hassle. The journey takes 4 hours. It is said that there is no air conditioning on the bus and it is a bit crowded with people. The details are unknown, mainly because I have never done it. ; 2. Charter a car to go there. The price of a taxi in the past was about 2500p (more than 300 RMB). The journey will be faster, but it will take at least 3 hours;
It is recommended to stay at a seaside hotel in Mobao. This can also be booked online. The price is not expensive, between 30-70$
Since I don’t have a good underwater camera and no good photos of the sardine storm, I found another picture on the Internet.
You will definitely be surprised. In addition to sardines, there are also turtles and large areas of coral. It is so beautiful
Osrob

This attraction is for watching whale sharks, suitable for staying at most one day, the largest fish in the world, you can see it before 11:00 am every day, but you can’t see it in the afternoon. There are more tourists here, so it’s best Go early, you have to queue up to buy tickets
Here are some simple tips:
About mobile phone cards: When buying a recharge card at the airport, you need a globeSIM card for free, usually at 7.11 convenience stores 40 pesos each, and recharge cards are available for 100, 300 and 500 pesos. Recharge method: dial *143#, select 2 on the first option interface, select 2 on the second option interface, and enter the recharge card on the third interface. The ten-digit code on the card (scratch it with a coin), the fourth interface is to enter the six-digit code on the recharge card. If the recharge is successful, there will be a text message prompt; then you can activate the package. Remember to activate the corresponding package, otherwise you will use the data Deductions are very expensive.
