With Hotel Accommodation, This Deal Lets You Visit Boracay for Less Than ₱5,000

With all the safety measures and Philippine travel requirements these days, “budget” Boracay itineraries just don’t seem to be as budget-friendly as they used to. Nonetheless, they’re doable and, to a certain extent, still affordable. For a start, did you know that you can travel to Boracay without flying, stay for three days on the island, and enjoy other benefits all for as low as ₱5,000?

2GO, the biggest passenger ferry service in the Philippines, is currently offering its Sail & Stay 2GO 2021 promo. It comes with a round-trip ticket from Batangas to Caticlan, as well as a 3D2N stay at La Carmela de Boracay, one of the accredited Boracay accommodations at this time. With other inclusions, Boracay on a budget will be within your reach anytime throughout the year.

What about the Boracay travel requirements?

As with most local travels amid the pandemic, you’ll have to secure travel requirements on your own, unless you’ll be availing the services of a licensed travel agency. The requirements for visiting Boracay as a tourist include return transportation tickets, a confirmed hotel booking, a health declaration form, and a QR code.

You will also need to present a negative RT-PCR test result and download a Traze Contact Tracing App. While on the 2GO ferry, be sure to wear a face mask and face shield, as well as observe social distancing during check-in, boarding, and disembarkation.
