Best Motorcycle Road Trips from Manila

For riders, just hitting the open road, regardless of the destination, is an adventure in itself. But if you’re planning to ride all over the Philippines, you’ll realize it can get pretty complicated trying to transport a motorbike around since the country is made up of 7,641 islands. While there are some small amazing islands great for exploring by motorcycle, it’s more convenient to just rent motorbikes from there. For those coming from Manila who have their own bikes, your best bet would be to ride around the mainland of Luzon, the largest and most populous island in the Philippines.

How to Pay for Traveloka Flights & Hotels through 7-Eleven

One of the major hassles of traveling are all the arrangements that need to be made beforehand. For those always on the go, the easiest way to book and pay for flights and hotels is to do it online. But in order to do this, you usually have to have a credit card. I think this immediately discourages some people from planning and booking trips. Some people just don’t have credit cards or would like to control their spending and not use it excessively. If you’re trying to stick to a certain budget, it helps to pay in cash so you don’t have to worry about future bills.

One of the reasons I like using Traveloka, a flight and hotel booking app to book my trips is because of its wide range of payment choices. While the Traveloka app allows users to pay via credit card or Paypal, you can also pay by online bank transfer, debit card, over the counter at banks, and even through 7-Eleven!
