Day4: |
||
| hotel balance | 17200 | 4300 |
Notes:
- figures are in Philippine Peso
- airfare courtesy of Cebu Pacific (promo)
- our hotel - Royal Oberoi Resort Hotel
- the rest of Underground Tour package is along with hotel payments (we reserved through our hotel)
- all figures (on the left column) were divided into four (right column)
So our total expense is roughly above Php10k without the pasalubongs. I would consider this as not a budget travel since primarily we stayed in a bit expensive hotel.
