About · Hop With Ann

A Philippine ferry concierge,
run from Bohol.

Multi-leg ferry bookings, port transfers, and multi-island itineraries — coordinated by a small team based in Tagbilaran, Philippines. Over 1,500 trips handled since 2019.

Hop With Ann is a licensed Philippine travel service specialising in multi-leg ferry and port transfer bookings across the Visayas, Palawan, Mindanao, and Siargao. The business stitches together ferries, vans, and hotel transfers from multiple operators into a single booking — routes that online booking sites list separately, if at all. Every booking is handled end-to-end with WhatsApp support throughout the trip.

What the work actually is

A

The person currently running it

Ann, operator and point of contact

Ann handles every booking personally. Based in Bohol, where every ferry and port on this site is within a few hours' drive. Seven years of doing this work. Thousands of trips coordinated. A running list of agents, drivers, and port contacts that doesn't exist anywhere else.

The job is mostly pattern recognition. Which ferries leave on time, which ones don't. Which port to arrive 45 minutes early and which to arrive 90. Which driver answers his phone at 5am and which goes quiet until Tuesday. Seven years of this builds into a running mental map that doesn't exist on any schedule or any website.

Ann grew up around these ports. That's the starting point, not the qualification. The qualification is thousands of crossings, and a contact list that holds when things shift.

"I don't sell tickets. I sell connections that actually hold together. If the ferry changes, I find out before you do."
