love to watch your video, bout the island of Bohol..my wife is from inabanga..last time we visit the Place was last 2017..we are now currently here in Bulacan..
Hi Rod. I am enjoying these Bohol Videos as I have never been there. Haha lucky for me I don't drink Coffee but nice of that man on the Bike to show you the way. Have a great evening Rod 🙂👍
Thanks Pete. There are areas of the Philippines, like Bacolod City, where brewed coffee is popular with Filipinos also, but most of the places I travel one has to settle for the 3 in 1 instant coffee.
Another good video.(No surprise their) I am headed back to the Philippines relatively soon and intend to use your videos as a guide to help me get around Bohol.
This week trip around Bohol was interesting and I told my gf that I would be "working" on video much of the time also. I like to explore and pass along new information as I find it Will. Safe travels.
Great little town. Been there hundreds of times. It's pronounce too-BEE'-gen by the way. I love the new stores they put up there too. We live just 25 Klm away in Catigbian. You went through there if you came up from Tagbilaran City, along with Balilihan and Corella. My wife is from Catgibian and we have a house there too.
@@AmazingPhilippines1 We're in our home in the states right now but our family says it's OK there. Naturally, they buy drinking water but the barangay has a new system running now, so they're OK
The air good if u mountain area fresh but it's ok not vry traffic not bad. Enjoyed Tubigon am from Tubigan town too. I love my province bohol. Tnx showing sir miss so much tubigon bohol coz of covid19 2020 fiesta s Bohol. Thank u. God bless always.
Proceed to Eco Farm in Bogtongbod and Sagbayan Peak, how to get there, from Tubigon headout to Clarin then when u see a sign Sagbayan, turn right and keep going till u see the sign of Baranggay Bogtongbod, ask the locals about the Eco Farms. It is owned by the owner of Alona Beach in Panglao. Then the next village is San Agustin where Sagbayan Peak is located.
I should have done a little more research and planned for a couple of more days on Bohol Randy. 7 days wasn't quite long enough to see everything but we enjoyed the trip.
Phonetically say Two-Big-On for Tubigon, Bohol. You can really see the lights of Metro Cebu at night from their Pier. I'm from Cebu but we spend summer in Tubigon or Buena Vista. My family has good friends over there. It's going to be next to become a city in the province of Bohol due to its progress and development.
Another great video,, thanks You are in my top three I go to when I can watch utube.. I am so happy that you are not alone..I used to worry about you..it's always better to take your time and find a keeper..we ain't young anymore and can't hop around like all these younger guys do.. thanks again and keep the great videos coming because I am going to end up around where you are..I am taking care of business slowly so when I move to the Philippines I won't have to come back to the States three or four times a year..I won't have to come back for anything.. unless these world leaders start WW3..ha ha..but it ain't funny because it's very possible..I am privy to some military information that most people are not and we keep getting ready just like a rattle snake before it strikes..I would be more happy I think if I would die in the filipines..I am happy now,I just want to be more happy and experience being in love one more time before the fat lady sings..
Good point Richard. It is interesting and can be challenging (good and not as good sometimes) when I have been so independent for so many years. Getting a second opinion on what I want to do is a new experience. LOL. Take care Richard and we will see you when you get here.
Giday Rod mate, we have passed through Tubigon a couple of times when coming from Cebu and returning. Quite a nice little town we dined at McDonalds there and i was a tad disappointed at the beggar kids gazing through the windows at us. Mind, that also occurred at Jollibee on Gen. Maxillom St opposite Mango Park Hotel in Cebu years ago. It was surprising Security didn't move them on You don't see that here in NZ, that was back in 1997, that was my intro to the Phils. Cheers mate.
Daddybob ..I would surely buy some cheap burgers and fries and pass them out on my way leaving.. probably get them some drinks also..not every time but sometimes for sure..I am not saying anything against you because I would not do it every time..you just made me think about how lucky we are in USA..me and my x girlfriend used to go to the dollar store and get pop top can foods, plastic spoons, paper towels, crackers and make bags up and pass them out to the homeless under the interstate bridge in town where I live..it was her idea..I miss doing that but I don't miss her.. hehehe
@@richardhowe2386 Hi Richard, thanks for your comment, i'm not a mean person, i have been helping the underdog most of my long life, but i draw the line at encouraging begging, which is actually illegal in my beloved Philippines. My wife said they are not homeless children and have families who send them out on the streets to beg. Their modus operandi is to get you to feel sorry for them. Even in my country New Zealand, we have adult beggars operating in the citys, who employ the same tactics to get money, even though our Government provides financial benefits for practically all citizens. Kia Kaha.
Daddybob ..you are exactly correct..I hate to admit it but I have always wanted to go to a city where nobody would know me and I would like to try begging just to see what I could make...I know exactly what you are talking about because I have helped many people through the process so government and charities can help them..you know a large percentage of homeless are alcohol or drug addicts..lots of them have severe mental problems..
This is my hometown!!!! thank you for this video, i miss my hometown :'( been away for 2mos already since im currently in NZ with my husband(pinoy)..I miss my kids as well hopefully we'll get them here next yr...btw it's TWO BEE GON hhehee TUBIGON.. i miss the place, the people, the food, well everything.. i lived near at the cultural center and i was expecting you'll procceed to that street so that i'll be able to see our place but you cut it off, felt a lil bit sad ;( hehe seeing your video feels like i'm home, strolling with my motorcycle because it is the exact place where i drove with my kids.. Anyway, WELCOME to TUBIGON mate.. Cheers!
There is only one college in Tubigon and thats Mater Dei College.. when you look at the facade of the school it's small but when you get inside its huge.. heaps of room are in there for students, from primary to tertiary.. they do have two 4 storey building at the back and 3 storey bldg in front.. aside from the buildings for the primary and secondary.. 👌🏻👍
Do you know if there is a ferry from Argo area to Bohol? We're going to be in Sibonga near the Simalia shrine for a few weeks in Aug and it may make a good day or overnight trip.
I believe I saw on MAPS.ME app or google maps that there is a ferry that runs from just north of Argao at Talo-ot to just south of Calape, Bohol which is south of Tubigon John. I just did a search and there is an article that states that Lite Shipping has relaunched a daily trip from Argao to Loon, Bohol which is north of Tagbilaran City.
Very good question fatherwolfs and I don't know the answer. I know of a guy up north who makes kayaks but they are quite different. The size and the motor would matter of course.
There are three pension houses in Tubigon. TMR pension house. Dross gold pension house. Lagayas pension house. All have room from 500 up too 900 a night. Alturas has malls all over Bohol and owns Colonnade supermarkets in cebu and mandaue.
Thanks for that info Paul. I just shopped at Colonnade in Mandaue City yesterday. I tried to take a little video and security said that it is not allowed.
Good video Rod. I suggest that if you look for a place to settle in the Philippines, Look for a place that has elevation and drainage. I'm not talking about storm drains. I mean someplace within a few hundred meters where it drops off so you might be surrounded temporarily by a great inland sea but you probably won't have more than a few inches of standing water where you live. Don't count on storm drains. My ground floor apartment that I have now is at least 15 feet or 5 meters above the nearest paved road 80 meters away. No large amount of water is going to accumulate around my apartment and I'm certain I'm not going to get flooded. Elevation should be high on your want list for long term accommodation.
Good point Robert. I was just reading about flooding in the USA and was involved in sandbagging in our little town in Minnesota while in high school. Many people don't think about this issue. Tsunami is also a potential risk out here in the pacific ocean.
@@AmazingPhilippines1 I don't think you need worry that much about Tsunami in Cebu Rod. I did hear tell that an earthquake at just the right spot could cause a sort of tidal bore between the islands of Cebu and Negros but the chance of it happening is vanishing small. I wouldn't be considering a move to Mactan if I were really worried about it.
Coffee is grown in a few areas of the Philippines C Gj but it seems that in most places the 3 in 1 (instant coffee, sugar, creamer) if the only option. I have been told that Bacolod City has brewed coffee stands on the street and much cheaper than starbucks.
McDonald’s coffee in Hong Kong saved me. I drink coffee from the time I get up until bedtime. Hong Kong coffee consists of Sanka everywhere but McDonalds. Free refills as well. Say what you will about McDonalds the food is consistently good around the world (not great, but good) as is their fresh coffee.
We have been getting a little rain in the last week or so Wayne and the wet season should start within a couple of weeks. That translates to the SW "monsoons". I have been watching the clouds and the NE and SW winds seem to be battling it out each day. Windy.com is a good sight to watch the winds around the world.
@@AmazingPhilippines1 .. Finally , we will be visiting BOHOL this June , excited and recommendation for snorkling , touring guide? ..also nice we will landing the new airport that close to panglao island.. Hope to hear from you sir.. thank you
hello sir,, pls.tell me, How many Hours Travel by Any Ferry Boat from Cebu city to Tubigon port in Bohol,,? 1 Hour? 2 hours ? Waiting for your Reply.. new Subscriber..
Ferry traffic is in "transition" with the quarantine status on different island. It is presently difficult to travel without proper documents, pcr test, 14 day quarantine, etc.
Amazing Philippines you mean, i need to be Quarantine 14 Days before i can go to Bohol ftom Cebu ? 14 Days Quarantine is only for People coming ftom FOREIGN Countries.. i will just Travel From CEBU to Bohol..
Love Bohol island. The sun beat me down Pretty bad when Maylin and I was there I got pretty sick for a couple days but loved being takin care of by Maylin.
Philippines is a Wonderful place. I lived there for 3 years back in a time when there was very little Foreigners. Here is the Issue with Foreigners...which I'm also one, is that Foreigners drive up the cost of living in a City which they Live. I see this here in Mexico where prices are increased because Foreigners have more money...
Thanks David and that is certainly correct. There has also been great growth in the cities here with many other Asians moving in and starting businesses. Add to that that developers and investors are seeking the highest return and some "flipping" homes and condos.
Filipinos driving skills are horrific! It's so hot there and I don't understand why anyone would want to move there to live... It's ok to visit but, then leave. I know the Filipinos love their country just like I love America but, I live in the best country in the world.. Nice video to promote the Philippines...
You are right about the driving skills Emma. I lived in Las Vegas and Phoenix deserts for many years where it gets much hotter much of the year. I thought the humidity would be difficult for me but I have acclimated well. Many from the SE and other southern US states tell me they think it is less hot and humid here. I just read an article today that more "Americans" are retiring in other countries.
Thanks for showing our simple hometown tubigon sir godbless u more. injoy ur vacation here in Bohol.
Thank you, I will.

Interesting Arnold. I will visit Bohol again when the restriction are lifted. Take care.
Thanks for Vlogging our town Tubigon,Bohol!! Watching from Redding CA USA!!!
Thank you too! It was a nice trip. I have been to Redding several times and did some noise control work there many years ago.

There are several pension houses in town also Clyde so they should be cheap. Maybe no hot water showers though but not sure.
Many of your videos are good travel guide to the Phillipines. I highly appreciate it.
Thank you very much Kali.
Very informative. Thanks!

Thank you very much. I enjoy learning and passing on info as I find it.
Rod I can definitely relate to your statement about fresh-brewed coffee got to have it LOL
They have been few and far between on this trip boogieman. I try to carry a few cans of brewed coffee with me for that caffeine shot.
Thanks Rod, the maps are a great help👍👍
Thanks Joe. I am a map guy but they may bore some people.
looks great to holiday in bohol.where are you staying while traveling around.great video rod..drive safely ok..
We find a place each night wherever we stop Geoff. Most of the smaller towns do not see tourists so the pension houses cater to the Filipino style.
How is the air quality in Tubigon? I love Cebu City, but the air can get pretty thick.
The air good if u mountain area fresh but it's ok not vry traffic not bad. Enjoyed Tubigon am from Tubigan town too. I love my province bohol. Tnx showing sir miss so much tubigon bohol coz of covid19 2020 fiesta s Bohol. Thank u. God bless always.
Damn I can't believe I'm the first subscriber it's the middle of the night and I had to get up to get something to drink and I got a notification LOL

It'd be worth a look. Are there any colleges in town? That makes things more lively.

Enjoying the videos ! Are you from the Mid West ? I'm in Manila and would love to visit Dumagute and Bohol.
Thanks Eric. I grew up in Minnesota but moved to Arizona in the 80's to get out of the cold. Dumaguete and Bohol seem to be very popular with expats.
my business was water n ice 32nd and bell rd in phx. hope we can visit about that some time.
Water and ice in the desert are in big demand Robert. Are you in the Philippines now? My email is noisemasters@gmail.com.
