I plan this travel for almost a year and I want this travel more memorable. At first I was nervous to step on this provinces because of the negative side that I heard in the news, but I conquered it and make myself stronger.
Iloilo to General Santos
Iloilo has a direct flight to General Santos with a cheap fare compare in connecting flight in Manila as I based in Iloilo City.
It took 1 hour and 30 minutes passing by at Negros Island, Cebu and Bohol.
General Santos Airport to City Center
I was thinking that the time is so fast its been a while since I traveled in General Santos back then 2014, Now the airport is more accessible because there is a Tourism accredited shuttle van going to the City center and cheaper fare than a taxi.
GENERAL SANTOS CITY CENTER
I decided to stay in General Santos City for overnight and continue my journey the next day. I stayed in Dayon Suite.
General Santos to Lake Sebu via Marbel and Surallah
I was so excited to have a Zipline in Lake sebu as my first time to do it in my whole life. Commuting is more fun and take about 4 hours including waiting time. Upon arrival in Lake Sebu terminal I hired an Habal- Habal going to the jump off point of 7 falls and took about less than 30 minutes. It was a cold weather on the way and make me get my jacket. I've visited the Falls, House of LANG DULAY & Lake Sebu Museum.
Lake Sebu to Isulan,Sultan Kudarat
We arrived at Isulan bus terminal around 3:30pm and look a bus bound to Pink Mosque. The people there told me not go there now because it's not safe at night I got their point, so I decided to stay in Sultan Kudarat for a night and woke early morning to catch the 2nd trip in Maguindanao.
Isulan Sultan Kudarat to Pink Mosque,Ampatuan, Maguidanao
The Bus left Isulan around 6:30am because of the delayed from General Santos. After an hour of rides I know that I am already in Datu-Saudi Maguindao because of the pink streetlights and buildings. Ate Joham treat me a 5 piece of Pastel (Muslim food) for breakfast and I can say that the food it was so good. I met Ate Joham in the terminal of Isulan and she leaves beside the mosque.
Pink Mosque to Grand Mosque, North Cotabato
After an hour of staying in the Pink Mosque, I headed to Cotabato City and took about 1 hour via Van. From the Crossing Tamontaka Bobong I ride a habal habal going to the Grand Mosque and took about less 20 minutes.
Cotabato City to Asik-Asik Falls
Libungan is one of the jump off point going to Asik-Asik Falls in Alamada. Going to Libungan it will take a 1 hour bus ride from Cotabato City. I arrived at the terminal around 11:30am and eat my lunch. It's hard to decide because the fare is too pricey I negotiate the habal-habal driver and end up to 750 pesos instead of 1000 round trip, after 2 hours bumpy ride we finally arrived in the Brgy. Dado in Alamada, I thought It was the last journey going there, but its not I need to walk downhill for almost 1200 steps to see the Majestic Falls of Asik-Asik.
Asik-Asik Falls to Davao City
It was 5pm when I arrived in Midsayap and took a van bound for Davao City. It's going dark when the driver decided to leave and take a stopover in Kidapawan for Dinner. The rainfall is too strong when I arrived in SM City Davao and my friend pick me up and stayed in their place.
