Marcos saysFebruary 2, 2013 at 9:17 pmThanks Febry. Another reason why I wanted to visit the Chocolate Hills, was that I wanted to give it a second chance. I wasn’t WOWed the first time I saw it. I was like … okay, this is it? Bohol could get very touristy. I saw your post and I can relate to your experiences. Lakbay Diva saysFebruary 1, 2013 at 8:08 pmha! how did you get to the canumantad falls? did you have a guide? we almost lost our way going there as we didn’t have one hahahaha… Marcos saysFebruary 2, 2013 at 9:11 pmYikes, I took a jeepney to Candijay asked the locals there for advice on how to get to Can-umantad falls. Initially, I planned on walking from the highway to the falls but discovered it was too tiring to trek the uphill road. Hired a habal-habal to the jump-off point to Can-Umantad Falls. The one in the upper side, which passes through the scenic rice paddies. Me and the habal2x driver tried to look for a local guide. We didn’t find one, so he volunteered to lead the way (even though he wasn’t very familiar with the trail). Medyo naligaw din kami :D Dg Lakwatsero saysFebruary 13, 2013 at 2:57 pmI am a big fan of travel bloggers who take great photos. You are one of the best, I guess. I have been on a four-day tour of Bohol some 3 years back. I took a lot of photos but did not have anything as good as yours. Simply awesome!
