What travelers are saying
- revaxarts6 contributionsIt was a great experience and both guides felt like friends. They shared interesting things about the history of the philippines.
Both spoke very good English which helped to keep up with all they things they have explained.Written February 26, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - Smita S6 contributionsAlbert is an amazing guide. He told me a lot about Manila and showed important places en route. He also took me to the local village market to taste few delicacies and fruits picked fresh from the orchard. The trip to Taal Volcanoes was mesmerizing. It was an exhilarating experience going on the choppy waters of the lake and see the enormity of the volcanoes. The noodles at the boat ride point was delicious.Written March 16, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Kateřina L6 contributionsAlbert took us to the places we would never be able to discover on our own and gave us context only locals can provide.

- Lawrence A9 contributionsVery grateful to have experienced such a great trip. Picked up and dropped off by Mark and his colleague who was able to inform me about Philippines history and culture song the journey, to which I thoroughly enjoyed. Then got onto the quad bikes and off roaded our way through the jungles and mountains which had spectacular views. Stopped off at a local cafe to have some water and look over the incredible view of the mountains.

- PearlloriUnited States1 contributionI had an amazing experience on the Pagsanjan Taal Tour! The guide, Andrei, was incredibly knowledgeable and made the whole tour enjoyable. He was also very accommodating and attentive to our needs throughout the trip. The pick-up was punctual, which made the entire day run smoothly. I highly recommend this tour, especially with Andrei as your guide his expertise truly enhanced the experience. A must-do for anyone visiting the area!Written January 19, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Elie S55 contributionsOur Tour guide Floyd did a great job touring us around three different parts of the city. He was extremely knowledgeable! And super friendly!

- Dorala B8 contributionsThe trip was a great experience. Andrei our tour guide was exceptional. From the moment we were picked up till we were dropped off, the trip was amazing. I am not a swimmer, but I got I to the water and participated in the snorkeling. It was relaxing and fun, exactly what we wanted and needed. The driver,Noey(not sure of the spelling), took us there and brought us back safely, and kept us entertained with awesome music. The car was air-conditioned and comfortable.

Unfortunately the low cloud blocked the view from the mountain but the boat ride to the volcanic mountain was excellent.
The cave church was unique.
Taal was a gem of Spanish settlement for history buffs.Written February 21, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Just keep in mind it could be rainy and muddy so old clothes that you're happy to get dirty and proper hiking shoes makes all the difference. You'll see locals going up with flip-flops, but getting down it's hard.Written March 16, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- BellaandBonnieCanberra, Australia40 contributionsAn excellent walking trip. Andrei is so passionate about the history of Manila, his enthusiasm is contagious. Manila has a very interesting and diverse history.
The tour is about 3 hours with a bit of walking, remember your hat as it does get hot walking in the sun.
We were collected from our hotel a 8 and dropped back about 1.30.
One of the best tours we have done.Written February 24, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - Nala S3 contributionsI had a wonderful trek! The terraces were just beautiful - it was incredible to be in the presence of these structures that were carved by hand 2000 years ago!
Marvin was a truly excellent guide - very knowledgeable (and I had a lot of questions!), and very encouraging when I had to face my fears on the hike. The trek is honestly very manageable even if you aren't too active in your daily life, and guides like Marvin help to create an empowering experience even if you face some challenges. Besides, the views make it all worth it :)
In addition to the hike, I learned a lot about how rice is cultivated and harvested in Ifugao province, and also about the cultures of the people who live there. I definitely recommend visiting the Banaue Museum before you return to Manila, if you have the time.
As a solo traveler, I felt very safe on my entire journey - from the bus station in Manila to the tricycle rides in Banaue, all along the trek, and in my homestay. It was also great to meet other travelers along the way.Written February 26, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - Joe R2 contributionsI was looking for something unique that was kind of close to Manila and stumbled across this. Perfect.
I booked at 11:00 at night and Carlo was there at 5:20am as promised. Wow, great service.
It's a two hour ride south to the Taal lookout. Awesome. Lots of scenery along the way. Carlo is an extremely safe driver, and made appropriate pit stops. Patient, friendly and conversational the entire time.
A ride down the mountain to the dock where a tour guide, Van, and a pilot, Runell, loaded us into an outrigger and drove us around the ACTIVE VOLCANO, providing commentary all along the way. Although the water was choppy the boat was pretty stable. If you're adventurous this is great, if not, this might not be for you. My scaredy cat girlfriend made it through the two hour boat ride just fine. It was very beautiful, pretty fun, and unique.
Altogether an eight hour adventure. Drop off back at my hotel.
Glad I did this.Written November 28, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It was a great tour punctuated by a terrific guide name Rona! She was terrific.Written February 17, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
