TRANSPORTATION
Bohol is accessible both by air
and sea. Several domestic airlines offer direct flights to Tagbilaran
City, the capital of Bohol. You can also reach Bohol through passenger
ships and ferries plying the routes between coastal cities and towns.
If you are from outside the Philippines, you can take a flight to either
Manila or Cebu before taking another flight or boat ride to Bohol. Cebu
is preferable to Manila since it is closer, but only a few international
flights arrive there. After arriving in Manila, you can take any of the
daily domestic flights to Tagbilaran City which takes about an hour. Philippine Airlines (PAL), Cebu Pacific and Air Asia
offer regular flights from Manila to Tagbilaran.
Ferries and ships are obviously slower than aircraft, but they can save
you a whole lot of money. If you are in Manila, you can also take a boat
ride via Superferry, which is cheaper but takes more than 24 hours to
arrive in Tagbilaran City seaport.
If you're in Cebu, you may choose to ride a fast catamaran ferry (also
known as "fastcraft") to Tagbilaran City seaport. This usually takes
about an hour and a half, and costs more or less 500 pesos. Supercat and
Oceanjet are some of the operators of fastcraft trips to Bohol. If
you're on a tighter budget, there are slower ferries that can take you
to Bohol at less than half the price of fastcrafts, but they usually
arrive in four hour
