You will also be surprised that the climate in this region is like nowhere else in the country with temperatures dropping to 6degC on the coldest months
- A couple of hours away is the town of Sagada, blessed with natural wonders - vertical caves, beautiful waterfalls and a unique burial culture of hanging the dead in coffins on the sides of limestone cliffs.
- Have 3 days side trip to soak up on the white sand beaches of Northern Philippines - complete with island hopping, snorkeling and even parasailing if you are up to it. Have lunch while your hut is being pulled by a boat as you go on a river cruise - yes while having lunch.
- During this whole tour, we will make sure that you get to try the food and drinks in this country, a real gastronomic experience - it’s the Philippines’ turn to shine food-wise.
