They dont care and why should they.

There are 90 Milion + so 1 or 2 that die ?

Just make sure ur not one of them.

Driving a bike is not difficult just remember the golden rule

Any idiot can drive fast ! The carefull ones are they that last !

It sounds like a good place to end a day trip.
I have done just that, and must say that it is really nice. The girl I was with loved it. Beautiful views at dusk. I believe the rooms were quite pricey, but I was staying on Alona Beach, and rented a scooter to get there. Also visited the Panglao Nature Park on another night. Another beautiful place with a few pools with great views. Not to sure I would recommend renting a motorscooter there if you have no experience. Probably not a good place to learn. I grew up on bikes so no prob with me, but could be for a less experienced rider. That being said, if you can rie, a bike is the best way of getting around and seeing things. You see all the kids walking to and from school and most smile and wave to you. Very friendly people.

I've never been there but they say it's expensive. But it is worth it because the environment there one-of-a-kind..

people sitting beside the road at night is also my problem. i might hit them... good if the roads here in dgte are wide...... some just suddenly cross the street.... and some street don't have lights especially in sibulan, the road along the coast. i don't know the place if not mistaken lala-an, sibulan. i don't understand to people sitting along the road... aside from the dust and smoke they enhaled, the danger of sitting down there.

I try not to drive after dark, the thing that bugs me is lights and a lack of lights. People just do not know how to use their light or that they need lights. Its okay to travel short distances but longer distances give me stress and I normal endup with a head ache. I love driving but prefer to be much more relaxed. Daytime driving gives me little stress in fact I enjoy the dodgems of the cities.

What if someone visiting is allergic to bee stings, but doesn't know.

Regarding my quote above.......I have never driven a bike before. Will see how that goes.
they will not have to worry about it after the visit I guess bees are not very agressive really wasps are the problem usually

Rooms are expensive in price ,but you have choices to stay in renovated ancient houses tracing back to the Byzantine era where lot of this historic massacres happen,the houses and the village meant to retain it's old ancient effects in the outside,even in the inside too,the curtains etc.We stayed 3 nights ,though expensive ,it's well the money's worth.I like that.
£30-60 (equivalent to Bohol Bee farm ) a night isn't much,you can stay in a travel lodge in england for that normal price .But this is the Philippines .Thailand is a lot cheaper than the philippines in terms of hotels with best value as well .You can find wide range of hotels fit for hollywood celebrities ,billionaires ,and hotels fit for a budget traveller at better deals.I think the Philippines should learn the Thai way.

If I do business like that,I'll do it a lot cheaper to draw range of people and better value accomodations ,for only just a bee farm and a sea side view? I can't even see a swimming pool,or maybe I missed it.
yep in many ways Fillipines should improve their competitiveness when it comes to tourism, there is a lot of good stuff to chose from in this world, it might just be down to local prices in general being too high
