My friends and I somehow managed to drag all the way up to Baguio to "conquer Mt. Pulag"…read more After an overnight bus ride, and a 2 hour jeepney ride, we managed to get to the foot of the mountain. The hike itself took 4 hours. It was a slow ascent to the top. It takes a while, but suddenly you look out over the horizon and then you realize, hey, I've covered a lot of ground. It's not a difficult hike - mostly flat, but make sure to wear shoes with a good grip. I wore rubber shoes better suited for indoor courts which meant that it was really flat. I was literally slipping and sliding all over the place. Tip! Hire people to carry your bags and water. You will be embarrassed because they are older women in their 40s and 50s who climb faster and are stronger than you, but at least by not carrying your bags, you will for sure get to the top vs. collapsing midway from exhaustion.

I'm sure you've read a lot of reviews and visited their websites etc. But I thought I'd share my…read morepart of experience. Traveled on a Friday from Makati at around 12 PM and arrived at the DENR almost around 8 PM. Chose the Akiki Trail, stayed the night at one of their hotels that is 50 feet away from the DENR, woke up at 5:30 AM, drove to the AKIKI Ranger Station and got there by 6 AM and started trekking at 7 AM, seems late but had to deal with the fees first. As we start to trek up this trail, so far so good--all is normal, but once we passed the sketchy bridge the hike gets more intense and harder to climb. I'm sure, you can make it, (then our tour guide told us that some people have backed out) I mean we made it the whole way. It's definitely not-an-easy trail, we rested every 500 meters or less, on every large tree that we could rest our back on. Took us 8 hours plus my boyfriend and I fell asleep even our guide somewhere probably an hour away from the campsite. At last, reaching the campsite! We were all thrilled or I was at least, setted up our tent that we rented out (600 pesos per night), we suggest that you should bring more water because they don't have water up the campsite, so always refill your bottles at all water streams that you find, it'll keep you going and you need it! Also if you're with your partner, bring your own sleeping bag, we share ours and it was a little ridiculous decision. For food, I suggest you bring something light, because your backpack will get heavy the higher you go up. Did not see the sunset, we were in between the clouds so everything was cold and cloudy. The sky cleared up at around 9 PM and the stars look AMAZING! If you are camping the night, wear as much layers and warm clothes as you can, it gets colder at 2 to 4 AM. The sunrise on a Saturday at dawn, we woke up at 4:50 AM, packed and trekked to the SUMMIT by 5:30 AM, and the SKY WAS BEAUTIFUL! It was like twilight, loved it. By the way, there's more uphill for you to conquer if you want to see the sunrise (on time) to get to the summit. To achieve this trip and see everything you wanted to see, you must be motivated and push yourself. Even if you don't feel good (like how I was, I caught the FLU), but it felt more than good to be there and experience all of it. By the end of the day, you should be proud of yourself. I would be, too. So I'm rooting for you and I hope that you'll enjoy your trip to Mount Pulag either today or tomorrow, some time soon! GOOD LUCK.

When you visit Banaue, Batad is a must-see. While I visited many villages and rice terraces in the…read morearea... Batad is one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites and the main reason I made the trip to the area. No roads in or out. A village and rice terrace built and nestled right in between the mountains. Once arriving, it's immediate that the place is magic. Like others on this page, I hesitate to write about it but just getting there is an adventure in itself. I don't think tourists will flood the place ever just because of how remote it is. Most people settle with Banaue and go on their way. The first thing you have to do is hire a ride from Banaue about 45 minutes away. Once you're dropped off, you then have to hike another 45ish minutes into the village. I stayed for a few days and the community definitely knew a foreigner was staying. I was quite surprised on my way out... the community was so welcoming and genuinely surprised that I stayed a few days. A few people stopped to ask where I was headed(kind of like they welcomed me to stay longer). Many tourists come in, eat, hike to the waterfall and around the terrace, and then leave. I got the impression that not many people stick around. Sticking around was definitely on my agenda. I'd definitely recommend finding one of the Inns and staying for a few days(there are numerous). The place is amazing but one reason to stay is if you plan on hiking around the terraces and to the waterfalls. The steepness of the steps and I don't hesitate when I say this... WILL KILL YOUR KNEES. I managed but they were shakey more than a few times so watch yourself if you have bad knees. Unlike Hapao, Batad doesn't have quite as much water. I was there in the Spring so things were green but I definitely want to visit during other times of the year. The green lushness or brown dryness varies from other videos I've watched. When thinking back, I can't get over how peaceful the place was. If you want a place to relax, this is it. Waking up for breakfast, having a freshly cut open coconut, watching the sun hit the terraces, having plenty of fruit trees all around, a waterfall close by to swim near, nighttime celebrations, and watching the community thrive without all the complications of the outside world. Amazing! One other thing to note if you have adventurous tastebuds. These mountains of the Philippines are in the Cordillera region. There is an old chicken dish that is frowned upon by the government but it's specific to the region. It can be found here... it took a while to find; Some locals will pretend like it's gross. Other locals will play dumb but it can be found... just go looking for it. I won't go into the details(just Google it). Definitely give it a try! I think walking out of there, a little piece of the spirit of that place came with me. I'll never forget the people and my trip there and I plan to return one day for sure.

I've honestly thought about writing this review many many times over the past year. Part of me…read morewants to keep it as much of a secret as possible to preserve the awe-inspiring artistry of it all and minimize the impacts of tourism. The other part wants to shout it out from the rooftops that Batad's amphitheater style rice terraces are the definition of wonderment, grace, & beauty and that this is the closest to heaven that I've ever been. The rice terraces are part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site in the Philippine Cordilleras. Built by HAND with mud and stones some 2,000-years ago, the rice terraces are some of the most remote in the world, located in a tiny village that is only accessible by foot. It's true, getting here is half the journey, and it's not for the faint of heart. I thought I was "from the mountains" but these people are DEEP in the mountains. So, come prepared and do your research beforehand - especially if you don't have family or contacts in the Philippines, have never been to the area, etc. Lucky for most, the people of this region actually speak pretty good English as do many other parts in the Philippines, but it might surprise you. I already knew that before coming though :) Batad is a ways away from the town center of Banaue where most buses will drop off tourists. You could catch a jeepney, tricycle, or randomly get someone to drive you there if the price is right. Luckily I had a car & a driver and we just parked overnight and paid a fee to one of the folks waiting at the parking area. The road ends here, so you'll need to go by foot for about 15 minutes to reach the top outskirts of the town where many of the "homestays" are located. You won't find 4 or 5 star hotels here, folks. That's the charm of it all. If you want to get to the center village of Batad, that's another 45 minute hike down numerous steps. I believe there were 2 or 3 homestays that you could book online, but honestly it's not necessary. We just walked up to a random one and asked if they had any rooms available. They homestay also had a restaurant and I noticed there were many tourists from many different walks of life all there for the same purpose. From the top, you don't really realize the magnitude of the rice terraces until you set foot on them. The morning daylight hitting each plot of land that was passed on from generation to generation (to the 1st and 2nd born) was incredible. I went in the month of April where the fields were green with freshly planted rice crops. When it's closer to harvest time, the fields turn gold. When they've been harvested, you get pools of mud and water which make for an awesome mirror effect. You'll also find traditional Ifugao huts still stand throughout the village. You can stay inside them as well if that tickles your fancy. When it's harvest season, the palay (rice before it's been husked) is placed in the 3rd level of the hut which serves as an attic space/storage area. The grains eventually become dry as the steam and warmth rise from the cooking that's done in the kitchen below. As our tour guide (Kuya Jonathan, a Batad local) explained all these things, I couldn't help but think "how lucky are we to live in & experience such a beautiful world?" This place is truly one for the books. Thanks to Kuya Jonathan for educating us about the people, the culture, & their traditions which remain largely unchanged to this day. Luckily, we linked up with him early on when we parked our car so we negotiated with him to be our tour guide the following morning. He met up with us at our homestay bright and early like I requested. We were the first ones hiking the rice terraces that morning and only crossed paths with 2 other groups of tourists towards the end of our hike. Highly recommend going as early as possible for the best views and photo ops as it gets super hot and honestly the whole place is huge so give yourself some time to hike and rest in between. I wasn't able to see everything due to time constraints and the waterfall (Tappiya Falls) that I wanted to see was closed anyway for construction. Even though it took me half a day to get there from my town, I definitely would like to visit again one day. I have never felt so awe-struck, so inspired, so connected to my roots until the moment I stepped foot on the rice terraces. SO much love for this place.

Apo Whang Od is "described as the "last" and oldest mambabatok (traditional Kalinga tattooist." She…read moreis 108 years old today (Oct 2025). Here are things to consider as you journey to see her. 1. Do your research and prepare your mind for a long drive / day. Pack light and bring a first aid kit. 2. Have a tour guide and a driver (service car) with experience rather than driving yourself (unless you have been before and is confident driving yourselves). 3. There are a couple ways to get to Buscalan Village that I know of. a. Drive from Manila to the drop off point. Which will take almost 12 hours with stops to restrooms, eating, and taking pictures. Then hike or take the one person tram. b. Fly to Baguio and then drive to the drop off point. Do the hike or take the tram. If you're scared of heights you may opt to hike. Note: if I ever go back I would choose B. Because from Baguio to Buscalan it will only take seven hours to drive up. With that said after we got to the drop off point, my group opted to hike vs. riding the tram. I did do my research and prepared my mind for a moderately challenging hike taking about 45 minutes to a one hour hike depending on individuals fitness. In my opinion, I did not think the hike was treacherous or too challenging. However, if you have not hiked or do not participate in any kind of exercise it might be challenging for you. I brought boots with me but I did not need it. A good pair of tennis shoes/sneakers or Tevas will work. You will have to cross a suspension bridge. The trail is paved and/or has cemented stairs. The hike took us about 35/40mins which was not bad considering we paused to rest for others in our group. As soon as we reached the village we checked in with the staff. We brought vegetables with us and they cooked it for us and they offered unlimited rice. After we finished eating we went ahead and got our tattoos. There were no people there besides our group so it's safe to say there was no line when we came (it was perfect). So come during weekdays vs. weekends. We had Apo Whang Od to ourselves and were able to spend ample time with her. To be in her presence and her energy was such a privilege. I was mesmerized and was having an out of body moment. I couldn't believe I was there. It was definitely one for the books. Bucket list checked! I'm so proud of myself for doing something I'd planned for years. If you love exploring, hiking and tattoos I would give this a go. 100 percent recommended. The views of the rice terraces, waterfalls, mountains, and of course meeting the legend is so worth the trip. Cost: In Philippine money some might say it's costly. You have US dollars, definitely affordable! Be prepared to pay for items separately such as: Homestay (Airbnb), WiFi, Tattoo, service car, tour guide and Tram ride. I hope I have written enough information for you all if not please feel free to ask me any questions.

I've known about Apo Whang Od (aka Maria Oggay) way before she became popular and I have always…read morewanted to make the trek to see her. (In all honesty, I just really wanted to see/meet her. The ink was was nothing more than a secondary bonus.) It shouldn't have taken this long even most especially since home is only 6 hours away (far better than the 13-15 coming from Manila.) But something always got in the way every time I visit the Philippines - more specifically the limits of time! (Ahhh, time can be so very VERY cruel!) So I promised myself that should I be given one more shot at it (more especially now that she's a young 106 years old): I AM THERE! A promise I kept. It really is like a rite of passage. Getting to her village is no joke. The drive alone isn't easy: the long and winding mountainous roads - some one way due to landslides - and then that 20-30 minute treacherous hike down and up mountains and crossing rivers with no safety protocols in place. There's danger lurking everywhere! But once my eyes set on her, none of that mattered. She really is stunning in person. I'm not sure if I was just star struck or honored, or...? Anyway. I was just happy to see her! And for the bargain price of 300PHP (approximately $5.50USD), Apo herself will ink you with her famous three dots of Kalinga. (It's the only one she does now.) One might be wondering what is there to expect and if I have any tips!? Here they are: 1) Go on a weekday. Weekends, I'm told, are incredibly busy and if you don't have a reservation, you most likely won't be seen until the next day (or two!) I went on a Thursday (no reservations.) Left home at 3am, got there at 9am, we were all good and done by noon. 2) Wear comfortable clothing and shoes. They don't need to be hiking shoes, but they need to be extra comfy. That hike is no joke - take as much breaks and time as you need during. 3) Bring bottled water. One should be good, no need to carry extra weight during the hike. You can always buy more when you get to her village. 4) Bring CASH. Cards are very useless here. When I went, it's 1kPHP (about $20USD) for registration and for the guide, another 100PHP (AROUND $2) per person once you get to the village, 300PHP per person for the ink (as mentioned earlier), of course you have to tip her AND your guide, and then moolah for souvenirs. Better to have too much money than never enough. 5) Try not to piss Apo off. She's known to deny inking people for reasons exclusively known only to her. 6) She does not use normal ink. It's a mix of charcoal and water. She does not use needles either: she uses a thorn from a pomelo tree. (This is the way it's been done for hundreds of years.) You get to keep the thorn she uses on you. So yes, an infection is very possible, so take good care of your ink as well as you can. (Let me know if you have any more questions about this and I'll try my best to answer 'em!) FUN FACT: Apo Whang Od/Maria Oggay is the oldest person to grace the cover of ANY Vogue magazine. (The Vogue article is available for your reading pleasure online. Just simply Google it.) She has also been deemed one of Philippines' National Treasures. Our guide, Wan-Nay, was a total BOSS. I think she can hike these mountains blindfolded. She put all of us to shame. One good thing that made me glad I waited is that the hike is much easier now compared to, let's say, a few years ago. The hike used to take 2-3 hours, trying to make climbs using ropes and the like. I was told no part of the route to her is cemented back then: some of it is now. Whew! It truly is an experience and a story to tell. I'm so glad I finally got to go. If you're planning on going, DO IT NOW. She isn't getting any younger. Although she still moves like a spring chicken, at 106, there's never any guarantees. (But like millions of others, I wish her a longer and more prosperous life!) One of my proudest moments... so happy and so honored I got to finally meet her!

If you are getting a bit restless in Manila, one weekend trip that you will surely enjoy if you…read morelove mountain climbing and hiking is the trek to Mt. Pulag's summit. Mt. Pulag's Ambangeng Trail is a fairly easy climb even for beginners, but what really makes it challenging is the extreme cold and the highly unpredictable weather. The elusive "sea of clouds" that all climbers hope for isn't a guarantee, and many a climber (including myself) has gone up and back down frustrated, because the famed sea of clouds didn't make an appearance. For what it's worth, though, Pulag is such a beautiful mountain and it has a great biosphere - the flora and fauna are just jaw-dropping. I'll have you know that there is a really great tour organizing company that will take care of your needs if you do decide to go up and attempt to summit Mt. Pulag. Edelweiss Tours is girl power to the highest level, as most of the organizers are strong, beautiful and very enthusiastic local women. Teacher Agot, Ate Odel and their team are dedicated to keeping the mountains safe, secure and ecologically balanced, that's why they promote responsible tourism in this side of the country. Teacher Agot and co. will help you with pretty much everything - from the tour permits, the passes, the fees, the tents and the food. All you need to do is muster up the courage and the stamina for the trek and you're all set. Teacher Agot has been doing the trek for several years now, and her list of clients include high profile celebrities and travelers. You can reserve your slots or book a special trip by getting in touch with the following people: Novelynne Sumakey- 0910-798-7005 (smart)/0906-951-4270 (globe)or Agot Baban -0930-363-1218(globe). Teacher Agot and Team Edelweiss also has a guest house in Kabayan, the Baban Homestay, where you can stay and enjoy the view of the misty mountains and foothills of Benguet. On a more personal note, Teacher Agot literally saved my life during my first Pulag climb. It was 2AM and I woke up shivering in the cold because it had rained during the night. Our tent got flooded despite our best waterproofing efforts, and I was almost in a state of hypothermia when my tent buddy roused Teacher Agot from her tent. She got up even though it was an ungodly hour, and tended to me in the mess tent while I warmed up. Her survival tips made the cold bearable, and I was energized and thawed from the brink of real danger in no time. She even sacrificed our store of butane tanks for the portable stove just to keep me warm. She's the kind of dedicated tour master who would even take off her own scarf and give it to you just so you'd stay warm and comfortable. I'd probably be dead by now if it weren't for Teacher Agot and Ate Odel, who kept my morale up and helped me through the night.

CASH ONLY! What a…read moredifference 4 years makes! The last visit wasn't one to be boastful about. It was a sh*t show half the time with our boat's engine dying every ten minutes, and when it did run, the boat moved ever SOOOO slow. I almost made a vow to never stop by here ever again. But with GodNiece's first time in Pangasinan, Hundred Islands was a must go-to for her. With a tad bit of reluctance, we went. I noticed an improvement in the area's overall appearance IMMEDIATELY. Parking was abundant and clean. The welcoming area is beautifully designed which included a pond filled with koi fish and small replicas of the islands. The entry way to the boats even had an arc. It was quite welcoming. The tourist center could use a little work: FIRST: it was CASH ONLY (for everything!) which is a huge no-no for a tourist attraction as famed as this place is. (One would reasonably assume they take cards, right?!) Now, keep in mind that this place is so much more fun when visiting with somewhat of a big party (we were a mere party of 9.) It's a good thing I brought enough cash to cover everyone for everything they need (including activities.) I can only imagine the trouble some people had to go through to go back out, find a bank or ATM that's open and come right back. Oi. SECOND: I had to deal with three different receptionists just to complete the registration process - one to register each individual in my party, one for the fees and boat, and one for the deposit for the trash bags (I'll get back to this last one in a bit.) I don't see why I couldn't just deal with one person for the WHOLE thing. The only reason I can come up with as to why they do this is that maybe the need for a moderator since everything is paid in cash. (There's gotta be liability somewhere, right?) But yeah, It took way too long to just get these done. It's a good thing we were there early Friday morning on a non-peak season. (I can imagine the chaos of the crowd during the weekends, summer or peak seasons here!) It wasn't long before we got on our boat. First stop was Governor's island for the sole purpose of ziplining. (The last time I was here, it was THE only other thing to do other than swimming or snorkeling, and it was a short one at that.) It's a bit of a trek climbing up - the steps are completely uneven and steep. Although the ziplining peeps kept telling us to follow the path to the left, we kinda got lost (and ended up the other way.) We weren't the only ones, so SIGNS might be nice. The view was fantastic, I gotta admit, but dang, that was tiring as hell! But the few seconds ride was WORTH IT. You can see a different side of Hundred Islands' beauty from where you're zipping from. The trek back is just as strenuous (again, SIGNS telling us how to get back would be nice) but also worth it since you get to experience walking on the wobbling bridge. (That was interesting.) Then off to Quezon island where we relaxed a bit more and had lunch. Ziplining is also available (one long, one short) but they aren't as steep as the one at Governor's. We brought our own food and drinks, but food is available on the islant itself. A vendor came up to us selling fresh crabs (small and big ones alike) for a bargain. We had plenty of leftovers to take home. We did a lot of swimming and snorkeling around this area. Beautiful clear waters allowed us to see all the way to the bottom of the water. This never gets old. I was going to suggest going to Children's Island, but we were having such a great time, we just kicked it on this island for the rest of our visit. Oh, except for helmet diving. That was the best way to top off the day. I'm not gonna go into it, I will merely suggest you DO IT! The one practice I noticed with EVERYONE: every person was mindful of their trash. I bought an ice cream from a vendor. He took it upon himself to get the peeled off paper from me and put it in his own trash bag. In all honesty, I did not see one piece of trash anywhere. And the bit with the trash bag deposit? Fill up your bag with as much of your group's crap as you want. Once you return to the main island, they take your filled trash bag away from you AND they will return your deposit. (THIS IS AWESOME!) We all had a great day. I am so glad my family doesn't live too far away from here. I'm definitely going out of my way to come back the next time I come to the Philippines. TIP: Come EARLY. The earlier, the better! There's so much to do! (They also have banana boats and jet skiing now!) Now if only they could figure out a better system of payment (than with just cash) and eliminate the whole "line here, line there" at registration...

There were 18 of us, so we reserved 2 boats. FYI once you get there, be prepared to be bombarded with people trying to sell you things. I already came across some of that that during my trip, however, there's more of it here. They literally come to your car and sell you things: sunglasses, sea shells, hats, etc. and they will follow you around. Granted this is how some people in the Philippines make their living, but I think there has to be some kind of boundary. That's just my personal opinion. The boat ride was not bad and the weather was perfect to visit the islands. We didn't visit every island because my group didn't want to, but we did stop by 2 of the islands.

Unlike my last visit, Big Bro, GodNiece and I got the chance to take our time to take everything this park has to offer. We did a lot of walking around and found too many interesting things. There are lots of activities being offered: bike and boat rentals, horseback riding and the like. There are lots of fruit vendors walking around as well (we lucked out and got lansones, which I haven't had for EVER.) There were also many souvenir vendors lined up along the sides of the park. As tourists, we were extra careful with making our purchases. Some WILL take advantage of non-locals. For example, GN found an Igorot costume she was interested in buying. She was quoted P3,800PHP (~$75US.) I already knew this was ridiculous, so I pulled her away. The one local we were with found another vendor and advised us to stay away from him until he can reasonably barter in our behalf. This time around?! P700PHP (~$13US) AND it included a headband and a belt. (Ooooh, he was so mad at that first vendor, he wanted to go back there and cuss them out!) But there are a variety of knick-knacks to look at and possibly buy: from shirts to keychains to backscratchers, etc... but don't jump on anything too quickly. The best way to avoid vendors who will not hesitate to pull a fast one on you is to walk around and compare, maybe haggle. If you're lucky enough to have a local with you (like we did), even better. The park was very clean. People are conscious about throwing trash in the proper bins. (I say this because I didn't see one maintenance worker the whole time we roamed. Kudos, Baguio peeps! Way to represent!) There wasn't a crowd since we were there on an off-peak season. I imagine it can get crazy during the summer. Great stop overall. Would return.
