WE ENCOURAGE  THE PHILIPPINE GOVERNMENT TO CONTACT FV TO HELP IN ANY WAY POSSIBLE TO PROTECT THE FILIPINA


   Our  service is much different from others that are around. Our goal is to help you with that first face to face meeting, make sure you have a hotel room that is clean and has a toilet seat and hot and cold running water, a place to eat within walking distance and Jeepneey's and Taxi available at your door step. All at a price that is within reach of most working guys. We do not arrange tours but hook you up with a good travel agent and advise you as to good hotels in the area you plan to visit.

Expect a trip to the Philippines will cost you about $2000 USD which includes your round trip airfare, [ west coast ] [ east coast can be as high as $2500 these are not peak season prices, there are several time periods that tickets are outrageous , 1 peak season starts by Thanksgiving thru Mid Jan. another is summer time,  May 29 to mid Sept.] 13 nights hotel, transportation to and from the Cebu or Cagayan De Oro City Airports. We can help you with our state side travel agent. [ on links page ]

 


Travel agent will need as much lead time as possible so contact AC Travel at least 7 weeks before you expect to travel as seats at  low prices are limited. We require that you have been in contact with your pen pal and have a legit relationship on going. We DO NOT do introductions as that is unlawful in the Philippines.

We have a driver and van available in Cagayan De Oro City and a Niece in Cebu to help with communication problems and arrange to pick you up at airport and help you with communication problems with your penpal if needed. New guide network is now being set up for all Islands soon [Aug. 2007]



 We work out  Cagayan De Oro City area but can arrange travel to another Island, and if needed  bring your girl to Cebu or Cagayan. It is a good idea to visit more then one girl. [ see our go it alone pages ] Our goal is to make sure you and your pen pal have a chance to get to know each other in a safe and secure environment, we will not tolerate any exploitation of the Filipina girls nor will we arrange any sexual activity or going to late night bars for the men on tour so do not even ask.


    The Metro Park has a Dentist in residence and she does very good work at very fair prices [ by American standards ] Dental work in the Philippines is about 15% of cost in the states. Click here for prices and Office Photo

We can also arrange scuba tours and PADI certification for those who might like to learn how to scuba dive as the Cebu area has great dive spots and you can get a PADI certification for about $500 and only 4-5 days, includes all dives, equipment and scuba classes by a young German couple who speak very good English.  Peak summer travel season [ and higher airline fares ] goes into effect March 29 and will stay high until Mid Sept. Please give travel agent at least 7 weeks notice for best prices. click here for sample contract Soon an American friend will have a 30 foot catamaran for sailing and scuba classes will post price for service soon as boat is still being built.
