This is but a big price difference from way back, but that was 5 years ago though. I stayed there with some local friends but we did not get their package tours, only accomodation. Me and my friends toured on our own, we figured it's cheaper that way. And i guess, being a foreigner, you may be charged more, lol. You know how it is in the philippines sometimes
Not to mention, free to, and from Airport transfers are included
