If you want im offering my self as a tour guide and we can used my car to roam around the city. Just let me know if your ok with my offer. Enjoy and stay safe always!
Hello, @Ken Abroad! After 6 weeks in our country, you must have gained quite a handful of knowledge, experience, fun --& some poundage, too! 😁 Just like Cebu, Davao is also one of the best places to visit. People are warm, friendly & hospitable, as always. It is generally peaceful & also has sense of order, like in Cebu. But as always, whenever you're outside, be alert (alisto); careful (maingat); & discerning\critical (mapanuri); that will always put you in good stead. Continue exploring our country. GODSPEED! 🙏😇
Hi Ken. Try going to Pearl Farm Beach Resort in Samal Island. They do offer day tour from Davao City. It's one of the best resorts in the Philippines. Very beautiful place. You won't regret it.
Hello Ken there's activities coming partly semilar of KADAYAWAN it's in Mati City they are celebrating a SAMBUOKAN Indak Indak Street Dancing this coming October 29, 2022... But you have to travel 3hrs. if you ride a van 5hrs. if you ride a bus you need to go to Davao City Transport Terminal, Ecoland if you take a bus name BACHELOR BUS route MATI...it's a peaceful place people are accomudating Gov. Officials are friendly
Oh my God ! It’s Davao City my hometown. Its a safe and cleanest city. Try to visit Roxas avenue, if you want local foods or at Jack Ridge. Or if you want to experience nature in Davao , visit at Eden Nature Park or at Malagos/Calinan Philippine Eagle sanctuary to see the Philippine Eagle and one of the famous orchids in the world the Waling-Waling Orchids and try to experience our Durian fruits. Enjoy your trip Ken.
Hi Ken, Im heading to Davao in Early December, My Step son is attending San Pedro College there and Im flying out to bring him and my other step son back for a month to Chicago. If you stay plan on staying in Davao for awhile let me know where I should visit as i will be there for 3 days while I wait for my son to finish school before the Holiday Break. I plan on staying at the Waterfront and also we have a day trip at a Resort in Samal Island to do some jet skiing. Thanks stay safe
Am a new subscriber. Am a Filipino -American living in Seattle, Washington, USA. Am enjoying your videos about your travel in the Philipoines. Salamat!
NIce one, Ken :) Don't be surprised at more prohibitions imposed around Davao City than other places you've been to-it's one of the strictest (if not the strictest) cities in the country with regards pretty much all that was listed at the entrance to the Park :D Just the same, it's for everyone's safety. Most fiestas/festivals happen during the first half of the year, peaking around April-May (Kadayawan happens in August though). You're still in luck however, as some major and colorful fiestas in VIsayas and Mindanao are celebrated in October. Take your pick and book :D: 23 October-Sunday would be the dance parade Masskara Festival up north in Bacolod City, Negros Occidental (Visayas) OR the Lanzones Festival in Camiguin in Northern Mindanao, "lanzones" being a fruit you must also try, those from Camiguin Island being the sweetest. Go ka na! :D (BTW, although Bacolod/Negros Provinces are in the Visayas, their lingua franca there is yet another one: Ilonggo (or Hiligaynon), although they would understand Bisaya, speak Tagalog. The Ilonggos are also one of the coolest Filipinos you'd encounter.)
Ken, the Eight Miles from Home vloggers; Jay, sha sha and their daughter story, are there in Davao City right now too. They have living in the country eversince before the pandemic. They just had their vacation in their home country but they decided to come back again. Maybe if you can meet them, they can give you advices about living in the country. Enjoy your Davao stint. Take care and God bless. - Willie Fred Cabalar Badbaden of Toronto, Ontario Canada
The Food Scene in Davao is booming, do check them out both the old food places and the new. Also do check out the Karenderya at the adjacent building of your hotel beside the fried chicken store in case you're looking for a quick very cheap home cooked meal. Also the fried chicken place is open 24 hours.
Welcome Davao City ken😘there are beautiful hotels in the city nice if you book near SM city ecoland!! Happy watching you now❤ thank you ken and have a nice stay, enjoy your day♥️
Ken,I admire the fact that your spontaneous and decided to take a trip to Mindanao.Also your right as far as walking around to check out the area, and see whats around!I have been to both Manila and Cebu but never tried Dorian, I hope you try again! safe travels my friend!
Hi Ken ,nice seeing you exploring our beautiful country,i hope you will continue to enjoy and see what Philippines has to offer. Looking forward for more of your videos in the Philippines,stay safe and happy.
WELCOME TO DAVAO CITY THE LARGEST CITY IN THE PH🇵🇭 WITH 2,444 KM.² AND ONE OF THE LARGERST IN ASIA LARGER THAN TOKYO AT 2,190 KM². DAVAO IS A FRUIT BASIN OF THE PH🇵🇭 AND AT THE SAME TIME THE MAIN EXPORT TO OTHER COUNTRIES LIKE DURIAN, PINEAPPLE, PAPAYA AND MANGO.
At 11:44 that bldg behind you Ken with the yellow gate is where I used to reside as a college student in Ateneo de Davao. Great seeing it again through your video 😊
You're such a humble guy, salute to you sir.. , hope you can walk around San Pedro St. The busiest part of Davao, and actually it is walking distance through the location of your hotel right now.
I would suggest booking hotels or likewise through AGODA, they are often cheaper and give you beter rewards in the form of discounts for future bookings =)
Siargao is the best and the most popular place in Mindanao for both local and foreign tourists. You should visit this island before leaving the Philippines.
Yehey! you are in davao city!!! U should visit zamboanga, too. The dialect there is different from bisaya and tagalog. Its "chavacano" its like spain in the Philippines. they speak Spanish words (some percent of spanish words)
Enjoy,have fun and be safe ken.I'm just a silent follower here😄I never been to davao yet and it seems so pretty there...Hope you try to visit south which is bicol region and northern part like ilocos, pampanga, etc...so rare seeing foreign vloggers cover on that places as i mention above.
Love all your videos. I think you found your audience in the Philippines. Filipinos love you as I can see from your vlogs. I live in Chicago, USA dye to work and Filipinos for sure are grateful for what vloggers like you are doing. I was born and raised in the Philippines and I can say I'm learning more about Philippines through your vlogs. Thank you and God bless.
I believe every city in the Philippines that you step foot on will certainly charm and captivate you Ken.Another educational vlog for us.Best wishes.🇲🇾💕
There is very different from Manila, like a different country! Thank you so much for sharing everything in your travel, you show us places we would never go in our lifetime! 👍😃🙏
Ken, it's nice to know that your in our city DAVAO. ARAW NG DABAW ( day anniversary for DAVAO) is.in every MARCH 16. AND the much famous KADAYAWAN FESTIVAL.(FESTIVAL FOR.FRUITS.&.FLOWERS) celebrated every AUGUST 21ST. AND FESTIVAL STARTS A WEEK BEFORE, AUGUST 21ST. MANY FOREIGNERS VISIT DAVAO.CITY.THAT.TIME. SAME AS.SINULOG FESTIVAL.IN CEBU., THE FEAST OF STO.NIÑO,EVERY.JANUARY .
The largest festival in the Phil is Sinulog Festival in Cebu celebrated every third Sunday of January. Balik balik sa Cebu. Be sure to get your booking early plane and hotel accommodation. Months earlier. My place is already booked by people from Manila for the January's sinulog festival.
it's definitely feels weird having a Christmas Season now. now I remember when I was a kid, we don't start Christmas season til the start of Misa de Gallo which starts from Dec 16 to the 24, which is around a week before Christmas Eve. then it got extended from the 1st Day of December about a decade later, which got extended again for the whole of December. before I left the Philippines, they were already starting to celebrate Christmas season on November but the Christmas displays were beginning to brought out or put in display in October. nowadays, it seems September has now become the start of the occasion.
I am from Davao living in Chicago right now, I used to study there at Ateneo and UIC! Go to Samal island, Eden, Crocodile farm and eat crocodile ice cream.
Kadayawan festival happens every 3rd week of august..its a thanksgiving festival for a bountiful harvest of different local fruits grown in Davao Region..
I have stayed in Mt APO Hotel in 1998.it was d highest point in Davao. Cooling. Haven't really roam around d city. Excited to watch ur adventures der n d Street food whatnot. Tourist spots too. Cheers, Ken
Thank you for loving and exploring our country. Please, if you've got the time, try to see our majestic Philippine Eagle. Stay Safe. Stay Healthy. Stay Happy. Lots of Love from the Philippines...❤🇵🇭🥰
Awesome first impression in Davao. It's always wonderful to see your interaction with the locals as you walk around exploring and showing us whatever cross your path for eg, that "bicycle type" of transport. Guess this's the first time l see them. Oh, that People's Park, a nice place to relax. As always, epic content, great video and l learned so much tagging along. Love your videos too. A big thanks, Ken.
Welcome to my birthplace Ken. Davao city is a very good place and beautiful place in the Philippines. Me and my family will be there on 2nd week of December. I'm so excited to back home.
Yes, Ken, you are in Davao, the Vice President's home province. Next trip, will be Baguio, Vigan, Subic Bay, Heritage Park, Bataan, Laoag city in Ilocos Norte, Batanes and many more nice places.
You should have tried also the Hot Cake, it's delicious, it's different from the Pancake in other countries. Nursing/Medical Students in the Philippines wear white uniform.
Hi Ken there are foreign vloggers who lived in Cateel like Kumander Daot a british man and Becoming filipino who is a canadian ,he is in canada this days and eight miles also there touring , enjoy you tour there coz Davao is quite huge ,🤗
you were looking to attend a big festival in the Philippines, it would have been the perfect time to go to Bacolod City this weekend (October 22-23) as it is the highlight weekend of the MassKara Festival one of the largest festival in the Philippines.
There's also this Spanish City in Mindanao called Zamboanga City the language they use there is called "Chavacano" it mostly contains 65%spanish n funfact its the only spanish city in the entire of Southeast asia, so yeah i recommend it 😁
In Jamuay, the festivities of Dinagyang is celebrated in Iloilo City. It is celebrated with colorful costumes similar to the pictures in the gallery. Cebu also celebrates the Sinulog festivities in January. Not sure which one happens first.
Wow, just go with the flow.....Least you can still vlog when you are clearing customs clearance.... A new place, a new town, a new adventure ... Always a good feeling arriving at a new place and get a feel of the local vibes......Always stay safe, be vigilant and take care mate.. Cheers!
If your Interested in Filipino Festival go to Bacolod Its the Masskara Festival- i think end of October. But all hotels and flights are probably booked now! And since you like pineapples and your in Mindanao one of the worlds biggest pineapple plantations are in Mindanao! Davao looks so cool!
I figured you were going to Davao when you said 2 hour flight. I lived there for two years and loved it. Thinking about going back but also considering Cebu. Favorite experience there was whitewater rafting on the Davao river (depart from crocodile farm). Shout out to anyone at Jacks Ridge or Gap Farm. Much love to everyone in Panabo. 💛
Ken ive been watching ur videos u inquired if there is an ongoing festival yes there is an ongoing festival in the philippines now it is in bacolod city in negros occ.caĺled maskara festival it will culminate this coming sunday...in as much that you are in davao might as well visit samal island its a beautiful place and good beaches

Hello, @Ken Abroad!
After 6 weeks in our country, you must have gained quite a handful of knowledge, experience, fun --& some poundage, too! 😁
Just like Cebu, Davao is also one of the best places to visit. People are warm, friendly & hospitable, as always. It is generally peaceful & also has sense of order, like in Cebu. But as always, whenever you're outside, be alert (alisto); careful (maingat); & discerning\critical (mapanuri); that will always put you in good stead.
Continue exploring our country. GODSPEED! 🙏😇
Hi Ken. Try going to Pearl Farm Beach Resort in Samal Island. They do offer day tour from Davao City. It's one of the best resorts in the Philippines. Very beautiful place. You won't regret it.
Hello Ken there's activities coming partly semilar of KADAYAWAN it's in Mati City they are celebrating a SAMBUOKAN Indak Indak Street Dancing this coming October 29, 2022...

After Davao .... dont miss Bukidnon .
Davao City is probably one of the safest place in the Philippines. Enjoy your trip Ken!

Yes, Ken, you are in Davao, the Vice President's home province. Next trip, will be Baguio, Vigan, Subic Bay, Heritage Park, Bataan, Laoag city in Ilocos Norte, Batanes and many more nice places.
Hello.... Ken .

I was there so good and so serene place.
Just enjoy the time that you're in that place. There's also a lot of beautiful beach in town and outside of downtown ken. Specially out side of Davao.
The 2 hour flight was a giveaway,then the durian on the roadside.

There's also a SINULOG Festival in Cebu every January Mr. Ken.. You might wanna check it out soon ☺
MASSKARA FESTIVAL in Bacolod maybe next week, pretty cool 😎 👌 👍 😀. You're welcome Ken....
you were looking to attend a big festival in the Philippines, it would have been the perfect time to go to Bacolod City this weekend (October 22-23) as it is the highlight weekend of the MassKara Festival one of the largest festival in the Philippines.
There's also this Spanish City in Mindanao called Zamboanga City the language they use there is called "Chavacano" it mostly contains 65%spanish n funfact its the only spanish city in the entire of Southeast asia, so yeah i recommend it 😁
Si.
Gudluck to ur new journey, and waiting u comeback here in philliphines. 👍
In Jamuay, the festivities of Dinagyang is celebrated in Iloilo City. It is celebrated with colorful costumes similar to the pictures in the gallery. Cebu also celebrates the Sinulog festivities in January. Not sure which one happens first.
Wow, just go with the flow.....Least you can still vlog when you are clearing customs clearance.... A new place, a new town, a new adventure ... Always a good feeling arriving at a new place and get a feel of the local vibes......Always stay safe, be vigilant and take care mate.. Cheers!
If your Interested in Filipino Festival go to Bacolod Its the Masskara Festival- i think end of October. But all hotels and flights are probably booked now! And since you like pineapples and your in Mindanao one of the worlds biggest pineapple plantations are in Mindanao! Davao looks so cool!
Hi Ken, wen n davao visit Jacksridge Resort, Samal Island for beach resorts, Magsaysay Park, Puentespina Eco Resort in calinan, etc
I figured you were going to Davao when you said 2 hour flight. I lived there for two years and loved it. Thinking about going back but also considering Cebu. Favorite experience there was whitewater rafting on the Davao river (depart from crocodile farm). Shout out to anyone at Jacks Ridge or Gap Farm. Much love to everyone in Panabo. 💛
