We were guided by an AETA guide who showed us the trees that can be used as medicine and also treated us to lunch. Lunches with bamboo were delicious, and I got cups made on the spot from bamboo as souvenirs. By the way, in my country, there was no problem with quarantining bamboo products on return.
Eddie & Ricky our guides for the day they were, very involved, pointed out many plants with medicinal value. They made the tour fun and didn't hesitate to answer all our questions. We literally had a blast. Just be prepared for the walking tour, it's about three hours in the woods, with inclines. Highly recommended it if you enjoy hiking with amazing views and nice people 👍. The community is very welcoming. Near the end of the tour, our Aeta guide prepared a traditional meal that we ate with our hands, which was awesome, and we ended the day dipping our feet in a refreshing stream.
The tour we joined has been changed because of typhoon. But the tour guide and trainer help us with patience and lead us to all the scenes that we never seen before, even they was paid for this, but this is not that easy to do this so often... they walked to the heart of the volcano with us... the trail was so long and bumpy, we took more than one hour to there and it was difficult... and also the tour guide and trainer have to take care of us for the whole trip. I am so thankful. After this we went to the waterfall Pagsanjan.... this is one of the most amazing and addictive trip in my life. Two people hand control the canoe , when crossing the torrent the boatman need to jump out and step on the rocks to control direction. They work so hard and risking their lives，I admired them. It was a regret that we couldn’t get into the waterfall . The rumour says there’s a gorgeous scene hidden behind the waterfall......hope that we will visit again and meet the same person, it was a wonderful day in my life. Thank you.
Thank you very much for sharing your good experience doing the combo tour for Taal Volcano and Pagsanjan Waterfalls. We hope to see you again.😉
Amazing day! Our two main guides were so friendly. Honestly didn’t even feel like we were on a ‘tour’ - it just felt like we were exploring the Philippines with friends! We booked it somewhat last minute but the company still responded super quick. The pick up time was early but a smart move, with the ever changing weather, we hiked the volcano early enough to where it was beautiful out. They gave us plenty of time for pictures (and I stopped a TON), they accommodated my diet preferences for an amazing lunch, and even with the evening traffic we stayed right in schedule. Such a beautiful experience! Would recommend in a heartbeat! I also think combining these two excursions is the best way to go because spending 8-9 hours at just one spot seemed like a waste of a day. These were two sights I wanted to see but with a short trip yolo was one of the inky companies that doubled them, and the only company to have date flexibility.
Thank you very much for sharing your amazing experience with one of our best combo tour. We're looking forward to see you again.😉
