(Introduction/Welcoming Tourist)

Hello there, everyone. Catlleya is my name. On behalf of Onelife Adventures. I'd like to extend a
warm welcome to everyone in Vigan City, Ilocos Sur. It will take roughly 20 minutes to go to your
hotel by bus. Right now, I'd like to spend a few minutes to introduce you to the area and go over
some basic safety precautions.

First and foremost, I advise that you remain seated until we arrive at our destination, and that
you do not eat or drink on the bus. Second, you should be aware that getting intoxicated in
public is against the law. Enjoy your trip, but remember to drink sensibly and never drive under
the influence of alcohol.

(Describing the Location)


I assure you that your stay in Calle Crisolgo, Vigan, Ilocos Sur will be satisfying. This is a lovely,
peaceful city where you can unwind. Vigan's biggest attraction is its mestizo district, which is
surrounded with Spanish-style houses that harken back to a time when the Manila-Acapulco
maritime trade brought prosperity to the locals.

With their red tile roofs, strong walls, wide doors and staircases leading to rooms with high
ceilings and sliding capiz shell windows, the houses are simple but gorgeous subjects waiting
for picture-perfect photographs. The families who preserve these treasures have worked hard to
keep them safe through many natural and man-made disasters over the years. When travelers
enter inside some of the houses that have been converted into businesses and museums, they
can appreciate the architecture and delicate craftsmanship used in the grill and wood works
even more. During their visit, they can even stay in a history house, since several have been
transformed into inns.

(Introducing special events and offers)


Depending on your trip plans, One Life Adventure provides a selection of exclusive deals. We
specialize in once-in-a-lifetime adventures, so you may have that off-the-beaten-path adventure
you've been looking for. We looked everywhere for one-of-a-kind activities in each of our
hand-picked places. We understand that traveling can be exhausting, so we make sure you
have a comfortable place to rest. We've hand-picked the greatest hotels in every place we
provide, ensuring that you'll be resting your head in the nicest spot possible. These are
spectacular accommodations with a distinctive twist, primarily hotels or boutique hostels, mixed
in with glamping in national parks, camping on private beach camps, and traditional temple
stays.

(Offering Advice)
Please use a bank or a money exchange to convert your dollars into pesos. We don't
recommend exchanging money at the hotel because the exchange rate isn't competitive.
Although some establishments take American or Canadian currency, it is preferable to
exchange your money and pay in pesos. You can also use your credit cards if you prefer. If you
want to explore around the city or go to Calle Crisolgo, we recommend taking a horse or jeep
ride instead of using a taxi. The cab will cost you between two and three dollars, depending on
how long it takes you, and the driver will offer you change if you don't have the precise amount.
If you do decide to take a cab, make sure you bargain for a price before you get in the car.

(Closing Remarks)
In just a few minutes, we'll be rolling up to the hotel. As we enter the city, please sit back and
enjoy the beauty of the ocean on the left side of the bus. I humbly request that you remain
seated until we have come to a complete halt. Mark will meet us at the bus stop to assist you
with your luggage. Please double-check that your bag has been removed off the bus. Have a
wonderful vacation in Vigan, Ilocos Sur, and I hope to see you tomorrow at the information
session on behalf of One Life Adventure.
