The borders are open but are the girlie bars and other venues open for business?

reports are that places are open. there are videos of numerous places in Angeles City being open and lots of girls, so little foreigners. BUT don't expect it to be like before. they have endured two years of radical lockdowns and changing policies.

there are some paperwork for arrival but other than that, people should go.

I'm thinking of going in May or June when the weather is cooler here in Oz.

Do they have lots of paperwork to be completed, RAT tests and proof of vaccination requirements?

Should be traveling over Easter.

I was going 4 times per year previously. So it’s just a case of seeing some dates

wow it's that good?! I'm thinking of June or August but just worried about the weather there

Hi 170 & Col Klint - my last trip to Phils was a Manilla, Peurto Galera, Angeles & Burgos St 3 wks fun fest although I came home pretty disappointed.
PG is now Koreanified and expensive, Angeles to me is just a shithole and the rest well for me very mehrrrrrrr..... I'm not a big drinker and party animal so maybe I'm just not cut out for all night binge drinking & fucking.
Am I doing something wrong????? This was my third trip to Phils - Cebu was nice once before but the hassles and crap food & accom & getting around just makes me want to come home - I can't see how the cheap pussy makes up for all the 3rd world crap.
And besides the pussy was very so so anyway - most girls I would rate 4 - 7 standard.

i think it's getting under control.

Qantas fares today $800 return from Syd

Philippines needs tourist dollar too.

[hogansheros_breakout]

I'll up this info as it is now out of date....

[17012430]

you should budget for that.

Hotel $50-$150 per day
Foods $25/day
Girls $50-$100 per day

Thanks that's actually very helpful. $150 hotel would be high end Marriott style right?

[hogansheros_breakout]

out of date now..

[17012430]

you wont get the Marriott for that unless you get a walkin deal.

I was thinking $150 will be a very nice hotel but all my data points are pre-covid. I will be booking something for my first two nights and then looking around while I'm there to get a different place at local rates.

I think post covid will be very cheap. I'll check the other forums and see what's what

[hogansheros_breakout]

[17012430]

best thing to do it book a ticket and see what happens.

you can read all you like but every person has a different slant on the world. I can guarantee that the pussy with be younger, more enthusiastic and cheaper than Australia.

Agreed. Could only manage to get 2 weeks off work... So now going to try and figure out how to fit PI, Thailand and Batam into one trip haha

Are you sure you can fit these places into a tight two week vacation with all travel conditions?

[17012430]

I really don't think so... but I worked out that I'll have to do a stop over in Singapore anyway - so one or two days can be sacrificed there... Then a week in PI and another in Pattaya. But I really doubt I can pull it off.

Maybe in 2019 this could've been done quite easily.

[hogansheros_breakout]

out of date now..

[17012430]

you simply wont do that because of the travel hurdles and various 48 hour before departure tests. Singapore is not a punting destination unless you have a business need to stop over there. Hotels & Pussy is expensive in SIN.

for two weeks, how about Thailand. wide range of tourist, sex travel destinations.

personally I would go to Ph as I find the pseudo-dating pickup apps more to my style. I have not tested any of my methods post-covid.

Out of all those destinations, Singapore is still my favourite. Nothing to do with punting either haha. Just love the culture there

[4FoW2]

I've always wondered about staying in Sing as a base and then trip to Batam and back. Yes Sing has got some great tourist attractions and food but bloody expensive for everything.
Always thought Batam might be a bit boring during the day???? Did some research on ISG but never tried. Any feedback from others? Worth a week??
If I had the inclintion now I'd just hit Bangkok - you know what you're going to get.
Re Hogan - my tag - 4FoW2 - four floors - lol

[17012430]

Where there's demand there's always supply in this business...

There really isn't much intel on Batam that's why I'm keen to get over there and document.

Anyone been to Manila recently . Are the bars in P Burgos street open ? I heard a lot of them had to shut down . Not sure how many survived. It’s a shame if it’s all closed .

I saw a YouTube clip where the tourist was complaining that the Philippines still had its covid19 requirements in place even if vaccinated unlike Thailand which has scrapped all requirements. It appears the Philippines is still holding off at this stage.

[Pinton]

The Philippines has been open for tourism again since Feb 10th, all fully vaccinated tourists can enter with no quarantine, just show their pass that has proof of vaccination, plus you must have travel insurance policy with at least $35,000 USD Covid cover, but the dumb ass immigration officials still required the tourists to apply for a pass to get entry from one place to another while travelling around inside the country.

Tourism is still very slow, but don't expect all bars to be back in business, many have closed for good, and it will be a long time before things get back to normal.

Also, some people do not trust that asshole Marcos Junior as president, and i would not want to be in the Philippines if that prick ever does what his maniac demented father did back in the 80's when he put the country under marshall law dictatorship while he raped the coffers of all the cash and sent it overseas.

I was working in Davao when Marcos bought in his marshall law, and it was not very nice.

You know, it's really quite an interesting way to spend your free time. I myself often don't mind having sex with prostitutes, and I try to find some opportunities to do so. I would like to recommend the website Pander https://mx.pander.pro/putas/brisa-546 where I managed to rent a prostitute named Brisa. And I can safely say that she was just peerless.

I was in Manila and AC in May. It was great fun. girls were happy to fuck long time, beers are cheap. hotels were cheaper. think $150 for >5* with breakfast deal. most nights I was paying $50 near burgos.

I wish I was there again today (and every day)

[morbovalenciano]

That's how it is

[bradpitt]

So who has immediate plans to head to Philippines?

Cebu Pacific has introduced their flights ex-SYD again

Qantas flights before Christmas are about $1,500 return. that makes it hard to justify for a one week trip. Prices in Feb/Mar next year are more like $1k return.

The reports I'm seeing on other forums are that bar prices have increased and people are paying more. BUT for me in PH overnights stays are the norm and these range the equivalent of AU100 - AU200 for nubile little fun girls. That's what I am paying for one hour on a massage table in Brisbane where as the pinay stay all night in your hotel (if you want) or they go home.

Just wondering what other destinations people have on their radar.

[4FoW2]

Pitty - found business return to Bang via Manilla in March 23 for $2.3K AD.
Thinking about a Hua Hin/ Bang/ maybe Manila trip.

that's a good deal. best of both worlds

[Hung-wolf]

I was in Philippines in May to June for 3 weeks as it was my first international punt trip but it was much different than I thought what it would be. I don't know about now but in may covid insurance, one travel pass and facemask bullshit was all over the country. Even needed pass to move inside country from one place to another.

For fun part I went partying but not much at all. Had a lot of fun. Went visiting places in El nido and Boracay. It was great. Spent time with couple of girls not even a single WL. All of them were from Pinalove or I met them on my tourist destination tours. Finding girls on Pinalove can be shit but depends. Never paid any girl more than 1000 pesos except food we ate together. 1000 pesos were offered for traveling and they wouldn't say no as no one says no to money ��.

One girl spent 2 nights and went home after few hours called me to ask if it's okay for her to come back to me to spend more time together. I would have been a fool to say no. So spent another 4 days together full of fun and great sex. Sleeping naked and showering together. It was just great. I enjoyed my best and one of best time in my life.

I would love to go back. Philippines is just great as no problem with English. Food can be shit or so so. But nothing's perfect. Right?

[ysopsycho]

Hi all. Longtime lurker, first-time poster.
Heading to Manila next week for work. Staying/working in Makati. Does anyone know if Greenbelt-3 is still a thing for meeting WL or did they disappear when Cafe Havana went? Thanks.

Of interest to me too.

Had some fun around Cafe Havana...sad to see it go!

Can reliably inform it's still a thing, but not as what it was in it's heyday. After a coffee at the starbucks I was wandering around for about 10 minutes before I met a 30 y.o. woman, a 7/10, who provided a great LT for the equivalent price of a 45 min massage plus 3 pines worth of extras back in Australia.

Plenty of ladyboys hanging around if that's your thing too.

Pity as it was a good alternative if you didn't want to head into the heavier areas.

LBs not my thing.

I am flying to Manila and on to Europe in April. I’ll be spending. 3 nights including the night of arrival. The same on the way back in May.
I am older in my 60s. Does anyone have any suggestions about pick ups or meets.

It sounds like you're planning a great trip! Being 55+ myself and having travelled and enjoyed the nightlife in the Philippines since 2010, with over 30 trips under my belt, I have a suggestion for a three-day layover in Manila.

If you're looking for some excitement outside of Manila, I suggest pre-booking a transfer from NAIA to Angeles City and taking the expressway, which is about a 90-minute trip. Once there, you can stay at the ABC hotel or book an Airbnb at KandySuites. Hit your first bars that night and have a girl stayover. The next day, you can hook up with a dating site girl or a WeChat massage girl.

If you prefer to stay in Manila, catch a white taxi to your Makati hotel. On your first night, head to Burgos St. The next afternoon, you can visit Greenbelt shopping center and enjoy some nice food there. There are lots of freelancers in the area, so you can take one back to your hotel with you. Rinse and repeat for the next days.

On your final day, you can rest and relax before catching a booked car back to NAIA in the afternoon. The new expressway is great for punters!

If you're looking to save money, you can take the bus to/from NAIA and choose cheaper accommodation.

And lastly, on your outbound trip, you may want to find a genuine girl who will be willing to meet you when you return to NAIA. It's always exciting to be greeted with a hug and ride to your hotel with someone you know.

[cafepombo]

Bradpitt I need your help organising my life! That is some solid advice. Hope the guy does exactly what you recommend and has a blast

[Macbeth_oz]

Leaving in 3 weeks. Great advice from Brad Pitt. Will be following through on it

Been to Philippines at least 20 times now and can confirm what Bradpitt has suggested is a great recommendation.
Angeles is the Pattaya of Philippines.. it’s amazing but manila girls are hotter and thus a little more expensive than Angeles.
