Flight chronicles of the backpacker Tutubi, with travelogues, pictures/photos/videos, travel guides, independent and honest reviews, recommended resorts and hotels (including inns, pension houses, lodges, hostels, condotels, bed and breakfast and other cheap accommodations), commuting guides, routes (sometimes street maps) and driving directions to answer "how to get there" questions, information and tips on tourism, budget travel and living in Philippines, Exotic Asia and beyond!
Backpacking, independent travel, and flashpacking are cheaper than the "cheapest package tours" and promotional offers around but you can also use travel information for family vacations, even romantic honeymoon destinations.
More than the usual tourist spots and "places to see," this blog advocates heritage conservation, environmental protection, and history awareness for Filipinos, foreigners, and ex-pats wishing to explore Paradise Philippines and Exotic Asia!

Hi Tutubi, I'm planning to visit Ozamiz in Dec 09, but am not able to find any rental cars. Do you know of any car rental places in Ozamiz city? If yes, what are rates? If no rental cars, are there taxi service?
anonymous from USA, there are no taxis in Ozamiz City, only tricycles i.e. motorcycles with sidecars. lots of them from the airport. you may be able to find car rentals at Ozamiz Airport though but i didn't ask around when i went there since my friends arrived early to fetch me
Thanks a lot for the information. Yes there are not too much information about Ozamiz City in internet. Next week i plan to go to this city with my boss. So thanks a lot for the information
