Bohol Itinerary and Travel Expenses

Our recent Bohol trip is one for the books. Not that it’s extraordinary or something but it is because I got sick during the trip and we needed to go to a hospital in Tagbilaran (we were staying in Panglao) to see a doctor. Thankfully, it didn’t ruin our schedule… only our budget. :D

Anyway, I am sharing to you our itinerary and summary of expenses  for future reference.

Notes:
  • I didn’t include the amount we spent on foods as it varies per person. For us, we usually pay not less than Php 500 for lunch and dinner (for two persons) and usually lesser for breakfast. Maybe we spent not more than Php 5000 for food for the whole trip.
  • For tours like island hopping and countryside tour, you can join other tourists (group tours) to save on costs/rent but we opted not to join so that can do whatever activity we want or go to spots we are only interested in without having to consider other tourists in the group.
