HOW TO PLAN YOUR ILOILO ITINERARY:
A city tour can be made in a day. This includes Garin Farm which is located 2 hours away from Iloilo City. Although if you plan on transferring to Bacolod or other nearby provinces, We suggest that you spend the night in Iloilo and transfer the next day. If you plan to visit Gigantes Island, travel agencies offer a day tours and 2-day tours. You can cover almost everything within 2-3 days.
2. DETERMINE YOUR HOTEL LOCATION
- If you're heading to Bacolod or Guimaras
It is ideal to book your hotel near the pier. Taxi fare is less than 100PHP while tricycle fare costs less than 50PHP.
- If you're heading to Gigantes Island
It is ideal to book near its jump off location.

Biscocho & Tablea Tsokolate |
You may hire a private car for a day to get around the tourist spots. I would suggest getting this if you are in a hurry and want a convenient way of touring the city.
We booked our private Iloilo City tour with our drive Aeile Toloso.
