Average Cost for Vacation in the Philippines

[Justud 42]

Excluding travel fees would say between 2500 - 3000K US. I have made many trips, personal and business. I usually stay at the Dusit, so rooms are higher than average. 5k to be safe in case of emergencies.

Two weeks pocket money in 'pinas?

No airfare?

No hotels?

No cash for the family?

Feeding the family only occasionally?

If you actually managed to spend $100 per day, you would only need $1400 pocket money.

I think it really depends on what you are wanting to do. Every time we go we plan on doing upgrades on the house and usually purchase other items. Some pricey and some not so much. If you are in a larger city then you may have to budget more per day. If you are out in the sticks you may not need as much. Our trip is budgeted at 10,000. Plan tickets run us about 2,500 for both of us. 1,000 for Manila. About 3,000 for a month stay were she is from out in the sticks. Give or take a few hundred bucks. And about 3,000 put back at home to pay bills with when we get back.

Hahaha! Hello batchmate.

Yep. Just figuring out our pocket money as we're travelling with my one year old kid. Airfare, few days stay on a resort with my aunt and bday party of my kiddo are already taken care of. LoL. Probably $100 per day is just about right. I am planning not to use credit card if possible, that way, I will not have cc bills after our vacation and no over spending.

Hello guys!

For those who went back in the Philippines for vacation, I want to seek for information for average cost of your vacation. What do you think the average cost for 2 adults and a one-year old kid travelling to Philippines for 2 weeks?

I am trying to save for our 2-weeks vacation. I don't want to overly budget neither under budget. I'm figuring out on how much pocket money I should bring as I don't want to use credit card if possible.

Appreciate any suggestions, tips and info.

For two Adults II think we spent around 5K
