I've been to Manila several times. What kind of information would you wanT Maybe I can help you with some. Just let me know.

[Guest]

Well I really dont know where to stay not expensive but safe and whats better angelas city or Manila for LB I met a lot of LB and girls on abc and they all seem to be around the Manila area. But I would also like to visit Cebu while I am there and heard that the Marriot midtown is located next to the Mall which is always a good area This info is just from the internet Would love to hear from an expierenced traveler. Hate to go by myself that why I was wondering if anyone knows of trips where several people get together to travel.

Obviously I only know a bit about Manila since I've never been to other places there.
I can't really recommend a hotel; I was booked into the New World Rennaissance and the Mandarin Oriental, both 5-star hotels, so I guess not inexpensive, but I didn't care, my company paid for it. But no problem to take a LB with you to your room.
You can find LBs in the Avaya shopping mall, Greenbelt during the day. They just walk around and will easily talk to you, I met two there, excellent.
On P. Burgos street there are a lot of gogo gilrs bars, no LBs there. But there's a small cafe downstairs next to the Matrix bar, a lot of LBs there. And there's a small restaurant opposite of it, second floor, where a lot of girls nad LBs hang out when the bars close. Easy to find one.
In the night there are a lot of LBs walking on the street looking for customers. But be careful there, if the police notice your "conversation", they will arrest you quickly. It happened to me once, and only with some extra money for the police officers could I get out of more trouble.
Outside Makati I only no LA Cafe in Malate, a place where you can't be alone long. Millions of freelancers there, LB too, so you should be successful there.
There's somewhere here in the forum another thread about Makati, useful information there too.
Hope I could help you a bit, if you have further questions, don't hesitate to ask me.
I had excellent experiences with LBs in Manila, I wish you the same.

Cheers

hey freddie!..been hearing from more than a few sources that the going rate in manila for a "very passable ladyboy" is 1,000
to 2,000 pesos!.the scuttlebutt is if you paid more than that
then you got "fucked over",and president arroyo wants to make you a member of her political inner circle!..(cabinet!)

[freddie]

Hi jmaryt, why do you think I paid more? Did I say that?
1.000 to 2.000 is the price, that's correct.

Why do you want to go to Phil so much?? Why not Thailand? I would think Thailand would be A LOT easier for the first timer. And if its safety is a top priority then it MUST be Thailand hands down!! BE CAREFUL OUT THERE!!

I doubt you will find any tours to the Philippines. There are laws in the USA against sex tours €“ and that is what you are looking for, so be careful.

Best advice is to talk with experienced travelers here €“ the advice is free and much better than any paid advice.

I go to Angles City a lot and am always happy to offer advice. In fact I will be there later this month and again in March. So drop me a PM and let me know how I can help.

hi freddie!

just trying to help!..you can pay whatever you want it's ok!
try to remember if you pay MORE than you should,then it's entirely possible you will be thought of as a "fool" and a "clown" by them,and you run the risk of NOT being accorded
any respect in your future dealings with them!..don't blame me!..it's the culture!...they EXPECT you to negotiate!...so do it!...and maybe save some cash?..better in your pocket!.then
theirs!..don't let the little guy with the small eye do your thinking for you!....(regards!)

[Guest]

Hey Mike any advice would be helpfull Dont get me wrong I wasnt interested in a sex trip I was more interested in tagging along with any group that may be going or someone that was local in the US that was knowledgable with the Philipinnes

Actually, I wouldn't mind checking out the 'Pines one of these days. Would probably make for a good 4-5 day trip (and an even better trip report!). But it does seem like a place where you'd want to have an experienced guide to show you around as it doesn't appear to be as user-friendly as BKK is.

[jmaryt]

yes thre are some very nice looking ladyboys in the phils!..some of them are a match for the best thailand has to offer!..the people are generally friendly,and helpful.they enjoy playing the "matchmaker",and believe it or not if you ask in a nice,and sincere way at the beauty salons,the people will help you locate some ladyboys!...and this is the best part!..there are ladyboys who hold highly respected positions that are even better looking than even the top talent on this web site!
they have a tendency to live a low key existance there because of the catholic religious influence.they don't get involved with porn sites nor do they want to hook either!..they are happy just being themselves and are really interested in along term relationship with a decent person!..go check it out!..

[dummy_plug]

Have you read my trip report? If I were to go to the Phillipines by myself I'd probably end up marrying the first GG I met, converting to Catholicism, and never meeting a single LB. I'm a dangerous man when I'm alone!

[jmaryt]

yeah!...you're right!..as a wise prophet once said
and i quote!.."there ain't no shortage!..just of the right kind!"
the philippines is a different place,that is true!.they definitely
have their share of grief,and problems,agreat deal of them attibuted to their own making,however that said,they also have some of the nicest looking women,AND "some" great looking ladyboys as well!that can be found ANYWHERE in the world!..you can have a blast in manila for short money!..you can also find them in hong kong,and bangkok,however you have to be very careful there,because you can overpay for services rendered,especially in light of the fact that if you time it properly,you may be able to catch the same filipino
ladyboy back in manila after her visa has expired,and negtiate a "much" lower price!.keep this in mind!...unless of course,you
have money to burn,or to just piss away,that's another matter altogether!..wait for 'em to come home so to speak
then just pay the prevailing rate in manila..keep the difference in YOUR pocket!

Sorry I have not responded sooner €“ I have been stranded in India. My only relief is I hit Bangkok Sunday €“ look out Ladyboys here I cum!

If you are looking for girls, the Philippines is the perfect place. I tend to like Angles City over Manila. You will find a huge selection and they will fall in love with you in a minute. The best part is they love long time. Unlike Bangkok where it€™s more a business and how many they can turn in one night.

Stay at either the Wild Orchid or Royal Amsterdam. Both have good rates and will pick you up from the airport and bring you to paradise.

There are also Ladyboys in Angles City, but you need to work a little harder to flush them out. The cheapest is to wait till around 1AM and they walk the block Santos €“ Fields €“ Raymond €“ Real.

Another way is to go on Asian Babe Cams. 90% of the Ladyboys are from the Angles City. Hook up with one and you are alls et. Just one word of caution, the Wild Orchid does not allow Lady Boys in the rooms. They check ID€™s and will refuse their entry.

I will be in Angles City 20-24 Feb and 14-16 March.

If you have any specific questions €“ just let me know€¦..
