Davao, Philippines

Davao, the first impression for most people is "this is a dangerous city". Actually, the people here can be proud of saying that Davao is the most safe city in Philippines.













I took Cebupacific air to Davao city from Manila at 7PM, and it was night time when i arrived. Davao international airport is new and clean, the taxi waiting outside airport are all orderliness.
I stayed in Sequoia Inn for first night, it's an expensive inn, single bed room is P950, and twin bed room is P1200. So i moved to neighbor hotel,BS Inn, during the second and third night; Single bed room in BS Inn is only P350, and double bed room is only P550.
















Going to Philippine Eagle Park is a half day tour, took long time to there and only spent 40 minutes in the park; joining local tour by agency would be an easy and efficiency way for traveling. You can also take public jeepney or van in front of Ateneo de Davao University to Calinan, then take a moticle to Eagle Park. The fare from davao to calinan is around P60, and moticle to eagle park is P40.















Night life in Davao is not so allured, the streets turn quiet after 9pm, and the only lightening shops are few coffee shops and burger cars.















Pearl Farm Resort is the most beautiful beach in Davao, said by many people and tour agent.
Buy the tickets from Pearl farm resort davao city office for pearl farm resort day tour, and u can spend all the day in their resort and using the equipments of the resort and with lunch buffet. The price for pearl farm day tour is P1200/person
