Hikiren

Ill be there from Nov 27-Dec 1. Itinerary still has to be drafted.

I will leave 26th, very sad can't join. BIMP EAGA finished so I will leave.

Enjoy your trip.

I think that the place is very good (maybe due to this event mayor has special instruction for additional security). Anyway the people here is nice and has good manners.

The mango is nice, banana taste very good but not the durian. Not sure what is cheap here, I mean the goods but massage services is really valuable.

The pearl maybe also cheap....I am not too sure actually as I never bought before.

Food is ok, no much surprise. Good luck to you, wish you a good trip.

Feel free to do so. The guide might find me boring. Company might liven things up. :-D

When will you be there? Maybe we can go along

I like Americano

Haha. I dont mind being alone in a food tour. I dont have company for the trip so i wouldnt know how many people would join.

 

It starts at 830am, i think.

Solo? Kind of boring. Must get someone to join. Perhaps I can join you.

Which dish is best between two???

DESCRIPTION

JOINERS WELCOME!!!

 

This is a 6-stop, 5 1/2 hour tour covering breakfast, lunch and coffee in different neighborhoods that are centrally located. The 1st stop is the market to get some freshly cut pineapples from Davao's Pineapple Samurai. Be amazed at the art of slicing pineapples in less than 30 seconds from complete fruit to chunks! This is followed by Kinutil breakfast, a chocolate drink laced with tuba (coconut toddy). After breakfast, there will be time to drift along the flower stalls to inspect, haggle and buy some local flowers. After all, Davao has a cutflower industry exporting orchids and other ornamentals which is highlighted annually by the Kadayawan Festival. The tour aims to bring greater depth to the experience of the tourist who wants to know more about Davao than just its usual attractions and sights. This is about savoring and licking the goodness that Davao produces.

Any suggestion from the Davaoeños if i only have a day to roam the city?

 

I saw a food tour and museums, i was thinking they, and band watching at Matina Town Square will do.
