I went to the Philippines 5 times. $1 is equivalent to 50 pesos. We rented whole house for 10000 pesos which is $200 only. Very cheap country and good food. People are friendly and respectful. I will recommended philiplines for vacation .
Yah our money value have a big difference 😆
Ja
Not a cheap country, but it has a cheaper cost of living...
Bro I'm from Philippines Not all people here are nice and respctful
@@zususki7579 Yeah, there are still some racist people here.
That's why the Philippines is called the "Pearl of the Orient Sea"
Yeah right I remember it
*Pearl Orient of the East
In Tagalog "Perlas ng Silangan"
Proud PINOY here... Though i dont travel to all those beautiful places of my beloved COUNTRY... Thus, really appreciate and THANKFUL to this VIDEO
MARAMING SALAMAT PO!
These beautiful places, cheap cost, and great experience than other country may have too. But what make the Philippines the best of choices among them, is the people. They can and understand english, aside of the hospitality and friendliness that they can offer compare to other countries in Asia.
FYI:
1-Tarsiers are well protected species, it's illegal and fatal for them to be domesticated.
2- No known shark attacks in the Philippines, even our whale sharks are friendly, so no reason to be scared on Philippine deepwaters.
3. What he featured in the video is just 25% of the country, basically just the middle of the country.
Try watching Wake Up in The Philippines. Thanks
I agree. There are more. Some of these are Pagudpod, Quezon, and hundred island. I miss it!
@thecommodity pin this
Unless you go to the trench which is the deepest part of the Philippines sea, and that is where sharks give birth and feed.
@@Blog-os3kh whoever goes there?😉
But the Wake Up in the Philippines featured 8 or 9 regions, and there are 19 regions in the country. So they missed a lot of places, some of them are even more dope than these ones featured here. It's still a pretty well-presented ad, though.
Honestly Philippines is my favorite country
thank you. To give you more idea, here are some of my travels in my Philippines: ua-cam.com/video/aVBLe5z9bPs/v-deo.html
Yes love philippines and also love #SB19
I agree
Just don't stay too much in manila
I've been to Puerto Princessa something and it was magically breathtaking.
Every country at the South-East Asia has an extraordinary and gorgeous places. It's difficult to explain one by one. But overall it's so beautiful and amazing. I'm from Surabaya City Indonesia.🙏🏻👍🏻🙏🏻👍🏻🙏🏻👍🏻
True
I've never been to Indonesia and I would love to visit one day
Yes because its gods creation .for me every country they have their own beautiful places
because southeast asia is enthusiastic and impressive when it comes to islands and beaches that can attract the tourists and a lot of foreigners come here as their favorite destination and we also have good food.
👍🔥🏆
You should react to FINN SNOW's top 10 Phil. Destinations. He's an Icelander who now reside here in the Philippines 🇵🇭. Good day and God bless. 🙏 😊
As well as cinematic underwater shots, he has the best gears for underwater shots…

$1 = P47.80 the current exchange rate now. I was in El Nido Palawan 2 years ago. A decent budget meal (sea food) is $5 . Everything is cheap. The cost of food and hotel are very affordable. There are wide variety of food to choose, from Asian to European. During winter season, most visitors are European, out numbered Filipinos. I highly recommend to visit El Nido for 5-6 days stay as this season may encounter a bad weather and may not allowed for boat tour and island hopping. But in case it will happen to you, the alternative tour is to check out the beautiful waterfalls surrounding the island. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT. It was an amazing experience.
I've been there in siargao for 2 times. It's really beautiful and a must to visit. It's really worth it.
Dumaguete is Forbes magazines one of top retirement places in the world. I noticed there were so many expats in dumaguete, especially at night you can see them in beer joints with their motorcycles parked nearby
Philippines the land of enchanted islands

I am a pure Filipina from the Philippines but I haven't gotten to those beautiful islands beaches in my entire life! Hahaha... you guys are so lucky to have a wonderful vacation with such an amazing islands here in the Philippines! Mabuhay kayong lahat and keep safe always!
#itsmoreloveinthephilippines
#itsmorefuninthephilippines
Yes Sad true 70% of Filipinos haven't yet traveled these beautiful beaches in philippines 😢 💔
Coz we have 7 thousand island
Wow! Really? Siargao is your No 1? I'm glad that I went there with my wife last Nov. 2022, I think there's more Caucasians than Brown Flip like myself lol! Also, there's too many stray dogs but they're all friendly and they always come around you begging for food😅😎, I highly recommend it. But it rains there 10mons. of the year. since it's situated in an open ocean. The locals told us that come between March and April where it's mostly sunny days.
El Nido was one location for Red Bull Cliff Diving 2019. The divers were thrilled and challenged since they get to climb a real cliff to get to the platform.
You can also check out Finn Snow's top list.
Costs in the philippines is pretty much the same as indonesia, i would even say, philippines is a tad cheaper.
A bet cheap
Yeah it is cheaper since the tourism here is inly starting to gain traction
Cheaper for tourists and balikbayans but for the locals its expensive tbh.
@@1211jinx HAHA ginto 😂
Hi guys! Thank you for your reaction. I’m Filipino and I’ll try my best to explain to you the cost of living here in the Philippines. I travel a lot so I’m basing this from my own experience.
I’ll use USD for your reference.
A decent full meal may cost you $2-$3 like fastfood such as McDonalds. You can have hamburger, with french fries and soda for just that much.
If you feel like being a little fancy, good restaurants may cost $6-$10 per meal.
If you’re planning to stay in Boracay for let’s say 3 days and 2 nights with food and accommodation this might cost you around $200-$300 sometimes higher depending on the season. And when I was in Cebu it cost me around $250 but it was 4 days and 3 nights, food and accommodation. You can find cheaper prices if you were able to get a promo from a travel agency but of course DIY is always cheaper.
Hotels if you’re planning to stay in Manila or anywhere else here in the Philippines, and if you have Airbnb you can find rooms as low as $20 per night. Just make sure they have airconditioner coz Philippines is a tropical country. Altho most of the westerners love the hot weather here.
Airbnb will definitely give you an idea how cheap the hotels are here in the Philippines.
Don’t be afraid to explore. Filipinos are known for our hospitality. Filipinos can speak good english so I’m sure you wont have any problems asking for directions. People here are kind and they will help you out. Be careful with pick pockets, well I think they’re everywhere no matter what country you’re from. But in general Philippines is safe. Filipinos are very kind and polite and we love to smile. We like foreigners and we love seeing you guys enjoy the beauty of our country especially the food, beaches, nature and of course the people.
I hope this helps you. 🇵🇭💙😊
PHILIPPINES HERE I COME, DESTINATION BORACAY!!!!!
Very well said ma'am😘😘😘
😬😬😬
If you travel to the Philippines try the Tao Philippines expedition in Palawan for more off the beaten path destinations..
I've been on one 3 years ago and it's one of the most satisfying and meaningful vacation I've ever had. Not only was I able to sail and explore the hidden gems around Palawan, I also know what I paid for the tour are directly helping the people living in communuties on these islands. The fresh seafood, cooked right off the ocean, lots of alcohol and the karaoke nights are something to look forward to.
Pretty much the same as Malaysia in terms of the dollar to pesos. It all depends on which part of Philippines your at. if it is a tourist area then it would be alot more expensive.
There are still Boracay, Camiguin,Panglao, Cebu and a lot more to experience…
In my lifetime, ive never heard in the news of great white sharks spotted on philippine seas.
seing this video makes me more proud of my country.....love it proud pilipino
Tarsiers can be suicidal when they're stressed actually.
Sad to hear you can get one in TX. I’m pretty sure it’s illegal, if not it should be. They have to be in their natural habitat. As an American myself I wish that the US will stop making exotics their trophy. 🥺
Exchange rate now cu'z of the pandenic is 47 pesos to a dollar from 50++before covid.
@@jessicaal415 only these two are the one claiming that you can get one in TX which is non-sense. You can owned monkey in Texas but not Tarsier.
@@jessicaal415 There are 18 species of Tarsier though. Philippine Tarsier is a protected species because they're near threatened. It's illegal to own and export them outside the country. And Philippine Tarsier don't live well in captivity. They will not eat and and sometimes they will hit their head in their enclosure or hard objects, resulting to death.
You are referring to the big lagoon, if it's high tide, it gets really deep as boats can pass through it but if it's low tide, you have to swim through the long stretch to get to your boat. It can be shallow reaching up to your knees then deeper as the day goes along.
Bohol made it to #8. You must visit Balicasag and Virgin Island!!!
There are a lot of a must-see places in the Philippines especially the beaches. Kalanggaman Island in Leyte, Cuatro Islas in Leyte, Balabac Islands in Palawan, Bicol Region. By the way, Northern parts of the Philippines are not yet in the list.
I had so entice by your videos I'm going to the phillipines this year
as a filipino living in the philippines, there is only one place that i really wanna go to ... i live in mindanao and we are surrounded by nature, white beaches, falls, rivers, mountains, volcanoes, etc etc so going to el nido or bohol wont have the same impact for me, BUT THERE IS A PLACE THAT I REALLY WANNA GO TO... ITS CALLED "BATANES"!!! its located at the southernmost of the philippines, you can literally see TAIWAN from one of its islands ... its a place where everything you see in the philippines are all present in one place! but accessibility is difficult even for locals ... i just hope someday travel agencies can make BATANES more accessable for everyone to see its beauty ... TRY TO REACT TO IT ...
Welcome to my beautiful country philippines💗
I am pilipino to tell you the truth
for a very long time i never heard a news about shark attack here in our country I really dont know why despite of so many beaches we had here and many fishermen we had.
Thank you for reacting to our beautiful beaches 💕

1 USD = 49 Philippine peso (PHP), depending on the exchange rate.
Thank you for choosing siargao as your #1 destination
That guy Lost LeBlanc is very well-spoken, so articulate and really know his stuff.
Mostly vlogers here are Americans and British roaming around...
And mostly of them living here in Philippines and aquire Filipino citizens...
Philippines is one of kind and beautiful beaches and landscape
If Philippines will improve the infrastructures then it might caught the attention of the world...
I want people go and see Philippines...

Philippines now is more beautiful than previous years.

Philippines is so beautiful not to mention the water they are so clear 😆😆😆👋👋👋👋👋👍👍👍👍👍👍💞💞💞💞💞💞💕💕💕💕💕💕💯💯💯💯💯💯🔤
If you happen to be in Siargao, visit also Samal Island and Talicud Island in Davao, which are just 1 hr (by van) or 2 hrs by motorbike.
More beautiful beaches in the Philippines,sooo enjoy po
Thank you to reacting to philippines 😊😊😊
We went to cresta de gallo and camp out overnight...best time of my life 💖🥰

React to Top 8 Best Beaches in the Philippines by Finn Snow for more on the off beaten path travel destinations in the Philippines.. and his Top 10 Destinations in the Philippines for 2019 and 2020..
Love your highlights and commentaries!
Philippines is surrounded with water, we have 700+ Islands during low seasons. Wait until the high season comes. If you love salty water, there are so many places that you can go to enjoy. Philippines are divided into 3 regions. 1) Luzon which the capital is Manila, a modern city with lots of huge malls around (2) Visaya is where you can watch whale shark, Chocolate hills, tarsier sanctuary and a colonial architecture.
3) Mindanao-Southern Philippines known for Davao City & Mount Apo Volcano, plus water falls and beaches.
thanks for choosing SIARGAO as your no.1 island spot.... proud to be siargaonon....
How far a dollar will stretch depends on what you eat and buy, the accumodation you are willing to pay. While the Philippines can be cheap and very expensive at the same time.
If you want to see the best places in the Philippines talk to the locals. El Nido is the best!
We love you guys 💞
From Philippines 💞
History bonded Texas with Mexico and Mexico with Philippines. Maybe that can affect our preferences...
I'm Filipino of Mexican descent. And I love Spanish music (aside from OPM)...
Thanks for watching these videos about the 🇵🇭
That river like thing is not really deep. During low tide you can walk on some parts of it but that area is mainly for kayaking and when you go further, you will get to discovee the really beautiful coral reefs .
Can’t wait to come home after this pandemic. 🇵🇭🇺🇸
Wow it's a wonderful sharing my friend love you see you around God bless 🙏
Thank you for promoting the Philippines.
$1 is around 45-48 pesos. It can buy at least a burger. If you wanna try homemade food, that can give you a meal like breakfast.
Try to react The Tourism Ads Of the Philippines 2020 WAKE UP IN THE PHILIPPINES
I once went to Kawasan Falls and its really beautiful especially if your with children who cant really swim theres this not too deep part where they can play and also theres a rope for kids and everyone to hang into just in case and to go nearer the falls if you dont know how to swim theres also this flowting bamboo that you can sit into
You must do a reaction video on wake up in the philippines tourism ads, that shows more about the beautiful sites/culture in the phil.
fun fact! actually, a sad fact but Tarsiers are suicidal! once they're stressed out, like placed in a noisy area or somewhere they're not used to, they WILL kill themselves huhu they are very shy creatures and just love to sleep and chill on trees HAHA
Btw been to Cebu and went to 3 of their several dozens waterfalls in the island. Went to Badian and Kawasan. I agree Kawasan has become very commercialized but still a must see. The 3rd waterfall we went to and I STRONGLY suggest, look it up is Dao Falls in Cebu. Smaller but magical. Words and vids can’t express enough the beauty and uniqueness of this spot.
Enjoy tour beautiful island in the Philippines .the people in the pbilippine is friendly god bless
Mabuhay from Philippines🇵🇭
Roughly 50 pesos to a dollar. Your dollars go a long way in the Philippines esp in the non touristy or provincial spots.
because this was done few years back, some of the issues he mentioned here have been addressed to.
The red bull cliff diving was held there !!!
Nice Review thanks to TC. Enchanted River in my List.
PROUD RO BE A SIQUIJORIAN😊😊😊THANK YOU MENTIONING OUR BEAUTIFUL ISLAND "SIQUIJOR"😍😍😍
that's where RED BULL high diving contest was , Palawan Coron
1 dollar can get you 1 bottled water and a chip or even a convenience store hotdog.
Although for popular tourists spots you can expect that prices tends to be higher unless you will buy from an established chain of supermarket, or convenience store.
you can even find a street corner store that sells rice and viand for a dollar on some places.
CEBU PACIFIC is really a go to airline in terms of domestic travel. Compare to PAL that more rely on international flights, Cebu Pacific is more focus on domestic travel, but also offers few international flights.
Crystal clear blue water.Only in the Philippines
Currency conversion is about 50PH for 1 USD. Cost (food) is about 60-30% cheaper, specially seafood, pork, chicken and veggie dishes. It also depends where you go/hangout. If you hangout in the main city or 4-5 star hotels, it will be as expensive as US. I find the best budget is around 60-100 USD per person, this will be enough to pay for your hotel, food, alcohol and island hoping. If you go with a friend, its even cheaper if you can split the cost and share. It's also a lot cheaper to go during their winter season, less crowded and better discounts on hotels and tours.
you should check out Nas daily's 8 days in 8 minutes in the Philippines. Thanks!
With 1 USD, you can already have a full decent meal with drink here.. 😊👌
When everything goes back to normal, come and visit Philippines...explore the beauty and uniqueness of our country...
You should go there my husband really enjoy staying in Cebu and Bohol ...the dollar 💵 if you have one dollar equivalent to 50 pesos... so if you have one thousand dollars is equivalent to 50,000 thousand pesos...he wants to retire there...we have a condo in Cebu City 🌃...when we go back there we have a place to stay...
The "Garden of Eden", Asik-asik falls by a Canadian Becoming A Filipino. You'll see the wonders, a waterfall faliing in a heavy forested side of the mountain. The video taken by a Canadian Becoming a Filipino, who visited the waterfalls
The best is to visit the Tubbatahah Reef in Palawan, this is a protected island. All species of fish are there. The most expensive beach resorts in the world is near to this reef but at the Northern side of Palawan.
The video shows what you truly experience here.very informative.Gid bless!
Coron in my place,,very nice for vacation in phillippines,,❤️❤️❤️so beautiful more island beach,,
Still Lot of island in the Philippines not yet discover.. Opportunities of adventurer n explorer.. more fun in the Philipppines..
That was just in visayas and there's also a very nice beaches in luzon and Mindanao just take a look at have fun in the Philippines
Wow thanks sayo vlogger. Taga tablas romblon kami...

Where is Baler..and Aurora Province..the Hawaii of the Philippines....surfers paradise too..where international movie Apocalypse Now was filmed..
I'm from the Philippines and I haven't been to any of those places. It's expensive to travel here especially if you're a bread winner
I agree with you. Hope i can travel freely.
Top 5 Dumaguete❤️ proudly to say thats my home☺️
My hometown BOHOL ! 🥰
My curiosity brought me here,New subscriber indeed.
Thank you for featuring my second Home,country:Philippines
You have to try to visit our place sir in the future...he did not include it in his vlog but sipalay city,negros Occidental Philippines was one of the best beaches in the philippines..it also have a monicker of jewel of the sugar island.
Please react 14 reasons why Philippines is different from the rest of the world.
You forgot batanes, hundred islands, there’s a lot of tourists spots (beautiful islands) in Philippines. Even in cebu there’s place with white sand beach too.
Try to visit philippines in boracay-baler-la union-pagudpod & puerto galera that was so good...
$1US=50php(peso) or $1Cad=40php. Basically your boba milk tea= $5-$6 here in calgary but in Phil=70php or $2cad only. You can check out NAS Daily vlog for price comparison but of course, if you want a luxury vacation, expect a pricey one. I suggest to look for someone in your blog to help you out when you visit 🇵🇭. Being with locals will save you tons of $$$. Since you're Canadian, you can contact Kulas(kyle jennerman) or Bret Maverick. They can probably help you out as this canadian dude already live there. They can tour you around Philippines. actually they visited most places in our country better than any Filipinos..... Good luck and cheers from Filipino here in Calgary
