[ DAY 1] DAVAO : Davao city & Digos City, gateway to Davao del Sur

Getting to Davao city is easy. It became a trend for travelers to wait for promo flights local and international destinations and one of the destinations on promo is Davao. One tip for people on a budget, book early for great deals so it won't your pocket and enjoy your vacation.
We are flying via Air Asia Zest bound to Davao city. With a 14-peso base fare, it was a good deal.
With our flight late in the afternoon, we arrived in Davao city at dinner time.





With Serge as our tour guide, I am not sure yet where we are staying... All I know is, he has relatives in Davao.

We arrived in Davao city at dinner time, around 7pm. After the warm welcome of Serge's relatives, we head to Jack's Ridge. It is a famous restaurant with a 180-degree view of Davao city.

This place is perfect for groups and families who want to enjoy home-cooked food while viewing the stunning scenery of the city. The area is pretty big; after dinner, you may want to go down the park located down the restaurant. Beside the park is a bar with live band that plays acoustic songs.

When it comes to food, prices range from P150.00 - P1000.00 per order and per entree... Not to mention that this place gains popularity nowadays. The prices could be more expensive. 


dig in to calamares, Fish tinola, baby back ribs...

JARED Condotel, place to stay in Digos city

It took us two hours to reach Digos city and its almost midnight. our group spent the night at JARED Condotel which was owned by Serge's aunt. The room we stayed at was in the second floor. It has two rooms, a toilet and bath, kitchen area with utensils, dining and living room. Good for 5 people. For a price of P1,500 per night, its a recommended place to stay.
