On a recent company outing, our group wanted a nice, budget-friendly destination that would cater to both young and old alike. At around that time, Airphil Express featured a sale to domestic destinations so we quickly grabbed the opportunity to buy tickets to Iloilo.
We had originally planned to spend our vacation in Guimaras but after some research, we found a truly beautiful island that was isolated, not quite well known, and perfect for our budget. This hidden treasure was Concepcion.
It was quite far from the main city proper of Iloilo so planning was essential because we were a huge group of twenty. Our flight was scheduled on Friday, 6pm and we would return on Sunday, at 5pm. The itinerary was simple: spend the whole Saturday on Concepcion then Sunday would be free time for everybody who wanted to do his or her own thing.
At 4pm, our hired van dropped by the Makati Stock Exchange to fetch us. And in case you're wondering, only 17 people fit in it. We were to meet the other two at the airport while one had an advanced flight. Fortunately, the flight was uneventful and we arrived at Iloilo on schedule.
