How to Get to Boracay Island

A Commuting Tip

Here's what I did: I booked a flight from the NAIA International Airport to Kalibo International Airport, which takes about an hour. Upon arrival in Kalibo, instead of booking private transport, I asked the guards about the public utility vehicles to the Jetty Port. As instructed, I rode in a van bound for Jetty Port for 200 pesos, and the travel time is about 2 hours.
