Reviews(1)
Edwin, our guide, was great from start to end. He was accommodating and took us to trendy spots outside the itinerary. For example, he drove us to Starbucks Tagaytay, overlooking the lake and volcano. All locations in this itinerary were fun to explore, from the forest walk to the Taal volcano boat ride offering a peek into a hidden bird sanctuary. The trek to see the hidden falls is not for those with weak knees. It involves climbing over rocks in some cases. Edwin took photos of us during the trip of his own accord and arranged a free lunch, which was not in the itinerary I signed up for . I recommend this trip to all nature lovers.
