People are afraid to travel alone, this shows how calm and relaxing traveling on your own is. To me the only downside is that you have to pay for everything, if you're with 2 people you can always split the cost.

Hi, Rhina! Happy New Year! I originally planned to walk from Santa Fe Port going to MJ Square where I ate my breakfast since a lot of motorcycles in Santa Fe were overpriced. However, one motorcycle driver offered a ride for only 20 pesos. That's the local price of riding a motorcycle from Santa Fe to MJ Square. From MJ Square, I just walked to Kota Beach for like 5 mins. From Kota Beach to The Ruins it would take approximately 30mins walking. Yeah I pretty much do walking the whole time 😂 You may opt to book a tour for this destinations but they will charge you around 500-700 depending on your negotiation skills 😁
