It is final! We already have our airline tickets and its going to be an adventure in CamSur! Lolz. We purchased the tickets rather early because we availed of the promo or sale on cebu pacific airline and air philippines. I am sooo excited, this coming November we will be exploring the Province of Camarines Norte. I have heard quite a few good things about the place, I know for one that we can go island hopping there. Wakeboarding is also popular and it happens there in CamSur. I still have to research more about the place. But if there are mylotters here than have been there or a resident of the Province, i will appreciate any tour tips or information about tourist destinations or activities in the place. Thanks in advance, mylotters and wish our trip good luck!

That sounds a lot of fun!!! And so informative.. those tips and suggestion will be well-noted. I just hope we could do all that given the short time of our stay. Tourism in CamSur must have been very good since there are lots of destinations and activities that one can do there. Visiting Albay is also a good idea especially if going on a road travel from CamSur to nearby provinces. I also dreamed of one day seeng Mayon Volcano "in person". Hehehe. And of course, I am amazed with the Butanding in Sorsogon, I only saw them on television.. Wow if only we could that this November..perhaps anpther time, another tour. We'll concentrate on CamSur first. Thank you. Your response is so helpful!

You should have taken a bus instead of flying. In that way you could also have experience the beauty of the nearby province. You will also experience the reality that our fellow countrymen are experiencing in the country side.

I heard that the travel time from manila to camarines sur is too long. We have just availed of the air fare promo so fare on the bus and plane are a little bit the same but of course the difference is the travel time to get to camarines sur. But nonetheless, I think it is also good to go on a land travel. As you said, you can see a lot of sceneries/situations along the way.

Thank you! Yes i am really excited and looking forward to the trip. You can go there too. What we did is save a lot from our income and watched out for air fare and hotel promos. Hehehe!!!
