Cagayan de Oro is known to many so called TITLES such as "Gateway to Northern Mindanao" because of its location and good transportation facilities, "City of Whitewater Rafting and River Trekking", it is a primary whitewater rafting destination in the Philippines that has a whole year round of maneuverable rafting courses and is located within the city limit. Officially is known as the "City of Golden Friendship".
Vacation! Summer fun aside from the usual beach bumming, we decided to try the white water rafting in Cagayan de Oro. Hmmm it was definitely fun because it were all our first time to experienced water rafting and aside from that we were able to stay at Cagayan’s coolest hotel --- Pearl Mont Inn.

We took the beginners course for P700.00 per person inclusive of the transportation, safety gears, life vest, helmet, paddle and a FREE shower at the end point. If you plan to bring your camera or other electronic devices with you, don't worry because they will provide you with a reliable SOTAR dry bag.

| One of the nicest hotel i've been, affordable and cool! |
I would like to personally say THANK YOU to Ate Marla for our nice accommodation, never expected Pearl Mont Inn would be that nice but affordable. Love the interior design, different mood for every floor. Staffs were friendly and treated as very well especially giving as a nice reserved breakfast meal.
