TOUR CEBU-BOHOL TRIP A few months ago, on kinfolk 25 to 30, 2010, we, the students of the STI College of Cotabato, had an educational tour of Cebu and Bohol, both of which are major touring car spots of the country. The given drill was prepared and realized with the purpose of exposing us to two of the most visited places in the Philippinesto let us experience and find oneself for ourselves the feel of the dynamic tourism there and to know about the original trends regarding the field of hotel and restaurant management which, as we know, consists of work that entails lodging and sustenance service, and plays an essential role in the tourism industry.The get by is considered to be a significant part of our training as aspiring hotel and restaurant managers, owners and/or workforce in the future. The school believed that for us to be effective and stream rakehelld members of the hotel industry, we should beginning(a) be involved in excursions the likes of that in h completely ow for us to grasp fully the reality of our chosen future careers and recover a clear view of its know-how as well as to mark off and obtain modernistic ideas which we could apply in the long run. Being a major tourist destination that they are, Cebu and Bohols hotels and restaurants are without a uncertainty in demand.The school did non over verbal expression that and made a owing(p) decision of choosing the two for it is, nonetheless, one of the best places of exposure. Over the years, with the advancement of technology, new developments are overly inevit able and have surface especially in the competitive world of hotel industry which has real evolved a lot. For that reason, we are truly glad that through the application that we had, we were able to learn something innovative which we could not do so the other way rough and just by being inside the four walls of our classrooms.We did not only visited the places just for the involvement of seeing its physical smasher a nd take pictures of it like most tourists do but we went there with the very intention of learning especially from the seminars that we attended. The trip that started on the 25th of September 2010 was wisely spent and was efficiently consistent to really fit all the many places that we were able to visit. On the bite day, we arrived at Bohol by 600am and checked-in at the Bohol Plaza Mountain Resort.It was a 4-star resort built on a mountain or much appropriately, a hill, hence the name, which has a spectacular view of the mainland of Bohol and faces the city of Tagbilaran. We also went to see the mysterious Chocolate Hills and were truly awed by the beauty it possessed. When noon came, we lunched at the famous restaurant on a boat know as The Floating Restaurant via the Loboc River Cruise and were greeted by a sumptuous and delicious meal. After which, we had the Tarsier encounter at the Corella and Tarsier Visitors Center and motto the extinction-threatened smallest primate on Earth, the Tarsier.And then we got to the blood compact site, the place where the sanduguan amidst the Spaniards and our ancestors during the 1500s transpired and were briefly informed about the rich tarradiddle of Bohol. In line with that, we were made to see some of the ancestral houses in the place that were bear on and stood the test of time. It now operates as a tourist end including the neat churches that were also built ages ago, particularly the Baclayon Church which is one of the oldest churches in the Philippines.In addition to that, we had a stopover at the other resorts in Bohol and at the Bee Farm which provided us a rare experience of organic delights. Moreover, we were able to see the splendor of Cebu while on tour, including its magnificent ancestral houses and the churches of the basilica de Sto. Nino and Cathedral Church that significantly mirrored the rich culture and history of the place. In 1521, the Spanish conqueror Ferdinand Magellan arrived there and in that same year, ingrained a big wooden cross at the place where the first Filipinos were baptized as Christians.Currently, this place is a big tourist lot and is called as the Magellans Cross. Consequent to that, we set out to see Cebus Beverly Hills Subdivision where people could find the affluent gated communities of the place and the idyllic Chinese Taoist Temple that is the center of worship for Taoism open to worshipers and non-worshipers alike. After lunch, we live to explore Cebu at its best and saw the oldest street there known as the Colon Street.We likewise went to the University of San Jose-Recoletos, a Catholic private university that is considered to be one of the excellent schools in the land and had a tour of the area. For our bordering destination, we went to the Mactan Shrine where the statue of our first hero, Lapu-Lapu, could be found and had a souvenir shopping. Cebu, like the other well-developed cities in Manila, is a metropolitan area and branded as the center of business and trade in the Visayas. It is identified for its many skyscrapers that has been baffled all over the place which includes our next stop, to one of Cebus finest commercial sites, the Ayala Center.However, though we really had fun, we were also exhausted from the days activity and, as explorers of the place, I think it is important that we have a contented place to spend the night and regain our strength for yet other busy day. The Crown Regency Hotel did not disappoint us on that and gave us what we all need after a long day around town. While there, we were able to get what I think all tourists meritthat home-away-from-home comfort through the superb hotel accommodation and service that they have. We spent our quaternate day a little bit different from the past lead days.Instead of touring the other landmark of Cebu and Bohol, we attended a seminar on bed-making, flaring and other things involving hotel and restaurant accommodations at the Crown Regency Ho tel. Lessons on the hotels activity were given to us and before lunchtime, we were escorted up to take a look at their rooms that displayed different themesdepending on the preferences of their customersand onto the hotels roof deck. Afterwards, we went into a beachfront hotel and resort, the Imperial Palace, and had one more seminar regarding the hotels services, the silverwares and utensils they are using and so on.When the seminar ended, we proceeded to go to SM Cebu. Along the way, we were able to pass by an majuscule and splendid hotel, considered to be among the top hotels in Asiathe Plantation Baywhich showcased a variety of fruit plantations along its entrance. Sadly, we were not able to take a look inside. All in all, it was a fun-filled learning experience, with all of us getting along and contributing to the success of the activity. The tour really left hand a great impact to most of us and, indeed, it was worth all the long time of preparation, expenses and fatigue. Ti ll then.
