🇵🇭 Philippines for 🌍 ABKHAZIA citizens

In Metro Manila, use Grab instead of street taxis for upfront pricing and fewer scams; if you do take a taxi, insist on the meter and have small bills ready.

Get a beep™ card for MRT/LRT and reload it at stations—this is usually quicker than buying single-journey tickets repeatedly, especially during rush hours.

For ferries and island-hopping, keep a stash of small cash for ‘terminal/environmental’ fees that pop up at ports and piers—being able to pay exact amounts prevents annoying delays.
