But just to re-iterate the facts:
P700-1000 = 3-4 full 8hr workdays pay for a regular girl @ SM Mall
(smaller shops usually pay LESS than that)
It's all up to you (Air Supply)

As some mates find valid arguments not to tip at all, this topic usually leads to endless discussions which I hate to inflame again. However, I tend to insinuate that we have reached here something like a consensus that 700 to 1000 pesos is far too much!? IMHO, of course!

Well I just got back from AC in February. I can tell you that the best and most secure way is to set it up with the Hotel to pick you up. Some use the taxi stand to the right where you meet your company. They tend to want more and tend to be hustlers. Best bet is though Hotel transportation. I stayed at the Wild Orchid off Santos street. This in my opinion is the best place because its a good quality place girls love the pool and it is 1 block from everything! Kokomos is near and a great place to eat. The bars are endless. Everyone will have there own opinion of what there favorite bars are. Me I liked Champayne, Classroom, and Dollhouse. But Dollhouse can be tricky in the early mornings because there are rumors they pad the tabs to us drunken mongers. The main area will cost P 1300 for bar fine. And you need to tip girl next morning if she was good (P700 to P1000). Also Dollhouse is open 24 hours a day. If you go further down you will have smaller and cheaper bars that have short time places if you desire. These are usually P1000 bar fines. Never got a chance to go to the Dirty Duck. I will make another trip there on Mat 7th so I may try that. As far as Hotels when you come back to Manila. There is a hotel I can not think of the name of it. But it is across the street from the US embassy. It is reasonable cheap for Manila. Good luck on your trip you will be there around the same time when I return.

Get a ticket to D Jose station about 10 stops 15peso.
Exit station and when at bottom of steps turn left when you reach the footpath. Continue about 100 meters and you will see Rabbit bus terminal on the left. Buses run every 30 mins to Angeles city. 115 Pesos.
Bus takes about 90 mins and arrives at dau bus terminal.
trike or jeepney to Ac takes about 10 mins. trike should be 100peso.
Taxi from Airport will be about 2500 peso and you will be stuck in traffic for ever. the LRT train will bypass most of this traffic and drop you off on the outskirts so the bus is on the open roads within about 15 mins.
I found the best bars to be, Lancelot, stingers, blue nile/Neros and Las Vegas.
Bar fines are 1200 peso and some models go for 1500 peso.
Good hunting!

Sailor man, I'll be following in your footsteps this fall...moving to AC and making occasional trips to Tland to meet visa stuff. I'd like to buy you a beer and pick your brain when I get over there. My top concern of course is budget, give me an idea what yours is like when you can...Thanks! T

Take a taxi to the Avenida Philippine Rabbit bus terminal which takes 15 minutes and costs about P70, then board the bus to Angeles City/Dau. You buy your ticket onboard. The trip takes 1.5 hours and costs about P130. Tell the ticket guy you want to get off at the Fields Avenue stop. The bus stops at McArthur and Fields. You can then walk or take a trike to the Pacific Breeze depending on how much luggage you have.
I have done the trip via Rabbit bus twice and wouldn't go any other way. I wouldn't waste US$50 each way when you can do it just as fast for about US$4.

Why you want to stay in Ermita is because of the LA Cafe. It is a two block walk from the Executive Plaza and is full of freelancers and is open 24hrs/day. See: http://ermita.com/LA%20cafe/index.htm
The Executive Plaza is a 20 minute taxi ride from the airport but don't worry as the times you will be going to/form the airport the traffic will be light.

Posts: 2Well, after 24 hours of traveling from Afghanistan to Manila because of delays, I finally arrived in AC. I’m just glad my driver was still at the airport to meet me. So as I arrive at the Wild Orchid, I go up to my room, and take care of the three S’s in about 15 minutes.
I figures that since I was pretty much wasted from the travel I would just do some recanaissance and then call it a night. My first stop was at Blue Nile where the place was pretty much empty with the exception of the abundance of girls. Some good lookers and definitely worth paying a visit back to later. Next it was off to one of my old favorites of Champagne. It’s not as rocking as it used to be, and the girls were lacking the fun they used to have. On the other hand, the waitresses are pretty smoking. Think I liked most is the no pressure atmosphere it has always been for me, yet everyone is still friendly. I had a few there and then moved on to Camelot. As reported before, the girls who used to be at Champagne moved over to Camelot. Place has a few good lookers here and the girls are still real friendly. After about 45 minutes here I figured I should move on.
Headed over to Dollhouse in which I walked into a mock contest of who is the best looking I think. Some real good looking dancers here, but the club is just too loud and too much for my taste, but I will give it a go again as I was tired and that could have been factoring into my bad time there. But they did have some real lookers; the dance crew was good, and it probably is better then my initial visit.
Next stop was the old Pick-UP dico whatever it is called now. Club seemed nice, but not the best looking dancers IMHO. Very friendly waitresses but a little too pushy, as I was constantly surrounded by six or seven of them, which honestly isn’t a bad thing, it’s a great thing, but can get a little old after a bit, and again my levels of frustration could have been up after my travels.
I was thinking about calling it a day, but figured I would go back to Champagne and have one last SanMig. When I was there earlier I noticed a waitress eying me quite a bit, so I called her over as I was sitting at the bar. She was a tad bit older then what I usually go for, but I was thinking I needed a little mellower night if I bar fined anyone. Little did I know that the girl wore me out. The little girl got on top and wouldn’t get off until she finished twice, then it was my turn as she calmly stated. Afterwards, it was a well deserved rest.
On a side note, I went to the optometrist before I came over and found out I needed glasses. I figured that since I was coming here, I would check prices out here before I bought anywhere else. Well, I can say that for 800p for the lenses and 7500p for Armani lenses, it cost me about 170 US for Armani prescription glasses, roughly half the cost in the states. I know a lot of people mention dentistry work over here, but thought I would throw this out as well.
More to follow…

Posts: 10May Visit
I am making my first visit in May. I arrive late at night in Manila(10:30) and leave the following week early morning(7)
I think I will spend my first and last night in Manila for ease of travel. I will be tired but would still like to have some fun there. Where is a good place to stay that is close to the action not far from the airport and safe enough to walk to.
The rest of my trip I will be in AC. and have decided on the Pacific Breeze. What is the best way to get to AC from Manila and back. I can set it up with the hotel for about $50 each way. Is this the best way to go or is there a better cheaper yet safe alternative.
What is a standard Bar Fine I have seen several numbers tossed about I am sure it varies and is it all night. What should I expect to pay for Short time and Long time
Is Dirty Duck still the best BJ bar and what is your favorite bars for taking home girls.
Last is it worth setting up FH dates or should I concentrate on P2P and be sure what I am getting.
I know most of this has been discussed before and I have read back for two years on the AC site but i would like any updated info.
Also I wouldnt mind having a drinking buddy or two if any one will be in town starting the 14th. I will be a paid member shortly and can take PMs

thanks for any help

Posts: 9June
Guys,
I'm visiting AC the first week of June. Last time there was April 2000. I've read many of the reports given in the last 6 months and it seems that good AC is still the same. I'm sure there are some changes but the basics are the one constant. I was planning on staying the Orchid Inn and was curious if the new(to me) Flamigo club draws a crowd. Also curious about the weather during that period. I did go back a year to last June and nothing out of the ordinary posted just not many posts. Is this a slow time of year? I looked at the average weather and it appears that the rainy season starts in June. Any pointers? 49 days and 7 hours until touchdown in MNL

B. The number two reason is the language problem. Most Thai ladies I encountered spoke so little English that after a couple of week, the effort just wasn't worth it knowing how much easier communication was here in Angeles.
C. Number three is just a small reason. In Thailand, the religion is so much different. In the Philippines the Religion is much like some parts of the states. There is not that much culture difference. The values are similiar to the states. As I said number three is of far lesser problem. Number 1 and 2 are just too hard for me to overcome for a retirement home.
When you go to Thailand ( Pattaya), be sure to check out the several boards that deal with just Pattaya. You will be so so glad you did. But of course ever good monger knows this and you would not be on this great board.
Enjoy your next trip to Thailand and if you head back to Angeles, pm me and lets have a beer.

Posts: 51Looks are subjective. I dont find the majority of AC women to be fat exactly, but i do believe their bodies are probably thicker then most other asians. My true preference is for a woman who is rail-thin. The AC women are generally slender, but not truely rail-thin most of the time. There are definately a few who I would say are chubby. Im not sure if I will find the rail-thinness in Thailand, but the pictures do suggest that its a high possibility.
I will say the treatment I received in Angeles City was the most accomodating out of any other women I have been with in my life. I have never really encountered such kindness from women that I just met. For example, I walk into a bar and walk out with a woman. Then I spend the night with her and she acts as if we have been boyfriend/girlfriend for years. Sometimes it gets to a point where I have to ask the woman to leave because my intentions were more of a short-term nature. I like this conduct because I would rather have me being the one determining the time when the lady should leave and not the other way around.
