Peacock Garden | Bohol Tour


Another deal with Tuggy Travels brought us to one of our best trips of the year 2012, The Peacock Garden Luxury Resort and Spa in Bohol. Its a luxury boutique resort located in Tagbilaran City with a European-inspired theme. 





Our package includes a 3 days 2 nights accommodation in a Deluxe Sea View Room with breakfast and roundtrip airport transfers. We paid an additional fee for a side trip to see the Philippine Tarsier and Chocolate Hills. 

I've also been in a backpacking trip to Bohol back in 2010 with a group of friends. As young as we were back then, all we wanted was to try everything the province had to offer. More details about this trip will be featured in a separate blog. :) 

Bohol Trip 2010


Our trip together in Bohol is different and more special because its his first time in Bohol and its my birthday! 

Upon landing in Tagbilaran Airport, we were welcomed by our tourist guide and driver. We scheduled the private tour first so we could spend the rest of our vacation relaxing in the resort. We headed straight to the Tarsier Sanctuary. We couldn't get near the little creatures because they are now resting in their natural habitat. The staff in the sanctuary just pointed them out so we could take pictures of them. The area is very well kept and although we saw only a few of the tarsiers, they staff said dozens of them are still around and kept unseen. 





Our next stop is the Chocolate Hills. It was already noon by the time we arrived so we ate our lunch there too. Everything was the same as I remember it except for the roof built on top of the stairs to the viewing deck. Its 214 steps to the top but it was all worth it once we saw the view of the Chocolates Hills that were colored green at the time. 




On our way to the resort, we passed by the man-made forest which is always incredible to see. 



After an exhausting city tour, we were finally brought to the resort and then immediately checked in to our room. More details about this part of my birthday trip on my next post!
