This photo was taken year 2016 when Bud Bongao or Bongao Peak was still constructing its cemented road and stairs for easy hiking and to attract more tourists.
How can I go to Bongao Peak (Bud Bongao), Tawi-Tawi?
From Manila:
Plane:
1. Manila to Zamboanga City.
2. Zamboanga City to Sanga-Sanga airport, Tawi-Tawi.
Ship:
1. Zamboanga City pier – Lamion Pier, Bongao, Tawi-Tawi
Schedule: Monday, Wednesday, Friday Time of departure: 1700h. Time of Arrival: The next day 1200h. Fare: 1,200 pesos (economy)
Tips: I do not recommend Ship since you will arrive noon time or afternoon.
Tricycle:Upon arrival at Airport get a tricycle going to Bud Bongao starting point. Fare: 100 – 150.
Tips: It is highly recommended to bring bananas (senorita) to attract more monkey and so that you can take a nice picture with monkey since they like bananas “just like a bait” 😀😂Just ask favor to tricycle driver to have a short side trip to banana vendors along the road.
Starting point:
You will have to pay 20 pesos for the entrance. There is also a small souvenir shop inside the tourism office.
Are you excited to climb Bud Bongao? Well, thats the first thing you will see when you start hiking 😀
Hiking time: 1-2 hours 🙂 sa mga mejo bata-bata, 3 hours sa may mga edad ✌✌✌
I’ll give you some pictures for foresight 🙂
Kubo to pause and rest
Giving of bananas to the monkeys
Beautiful isn’t it?
Basic rules.
Take nothing but pictures
Leave nothing but footprints
Kill nothing but time.
Enjoy guys and have fun..
