The Bohol Countryside Tour for 6 People: ₱8,695

Kumusta kayo? It's kuya Erick. Day 3 was the day we finally did the thing everyone comes to Bohol for. Chocolate Hills, tarsiers, the old churches. ₱8,695 for six of us. The first two days we planned nothing. Motorbikes, a direction, a joiner boat. The countryside is different. The stops are spread across four towns, so this is the one day a van beats a bike. Ours was ₱2,500 for the group, transport only. Every entrance fee after that came out of our pockets in cash. Chocolate Hills first. Over 1,200 of them, and they still got me even after a thousand photos. Then Bohol Enchanted Zoological and Botanical Garden in Bilar. ₱150 each, then twenty and fifty pesos at a time to feed rabbits, hold a python, meet a sugar glider, shoot airsoft. Ridiculous, and the best value of the day. The tarsiers are the quiet one. Among the smallest primates in the world, eyes fixed in their skulls so they turn their whole head to look at you. ₱180 a head. No flash, no touching, keep your voice down. They feel it. The Bilar Man-Made Forest is two kilometres of mahogany that was planted by the students of Bohol, not grown. Drive through and the temperature drops. Then Tagbilaran. The Blood Compact Shrine marks the 1565 sandugo between Sikatuna and Legazpi. Baclayon Church beside it is one of the oldest coral-stone churches in the country. Both free. Dinner was a karinderia that cost less than anything we ate in Alona all week. First time in Bohol? Watch this before you book the countryside tour. The stops are worth it. Most people just buy it the wrong way. ⏱ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Intro 03:45 Chocolate Hills 14:44 Bohol Enchanted Zoological and Botanical Garden 34:05 Bohol Tarsiers 40:11 Bilar Man-Made Forest 41:17 Sarimanok Inn and Restaurant 41:57 Blood Compact Shrine and Baclayon Church 44:32 Karinderia dinner 59:17 Alona Beach 1:06:28 Dumaluan Beach 1:09:56 Henann Resort 💸 THE REAL COST, DAY 3 Van and driver, whole group: ₱2,500 Driver tip: ₱500 Chocolate Hills: ₱550 Bohol Enchanted Zoological and Botanical Garden: ₱900 Python, sugar glider, rabbit feeding, airsoft: ₱230 Tarsier Sanctuary: ₱1,070 (₱180 a head) Breakfast, lunch, dinner: ₱2,945 Day 3 total: ₱8,695 for six. ₱1,449 each. 💸 THE WHOLE TRIP Six of us, five nights in Panglao, flights included: ₱54,565 That is ₱9,094 each Flights were ₱14,569 for all six, booked 8 months early on a seat sale 📍 THE DETAILS Van and tours: Sanchez MJ, joiner meet-up at McDonald's Panglao Stay: Tavern's Room for Rent, Panglao, ₱2,235 a night Chocolate Hills in Carmen, the garden in Bilar, the forest on the Loboc to Bilar road, the shrine and church in Tagbilaran When we went: 31 July to 5 August 2026 💡 BEFORE YOU GO The van is transport only.
