Unleash Your Inner Explorer: Epic Day Trips from Manila

 

Get ready for adventure! The APVRS-PAO Congress is your launchpad to discovering the Philippines’ hidden gems. Just a short hop from bustling Manila, you’ll find incredible experiences begging to be explored.

Tagaytay

A short 1.5 to 2 hour drive from Manila, enjoy breathtaking views of the iconic Taal Volcano, nestled within a stunning lake. Breathe in the cool mountain air and savor a steaming bowl of bulalo while enjoying that iconic panorama.



Corregidor

Walk through history on this island, a silent witness to World War II. Explore tunnels and poignant ruins in a guided tour. A day tour typically takes 6 to 8 hours, including ferry transfers.

Tip: Pack your own refreshments, as options on the island are limited.



Mount Pinatubo

A unique geological wonder, the site of a massive volcanic eruption in 1991, now a serene crater lake surrounded by otherworldly landscapes. For adventurous travelers, this offers a challenging but rewarding trek with stunning views. Experience the raw power of nature and its resilience.



Considering a longer trip near Manila?

Batangas Beaches
Trade city life for the coast! While a day trip offers a taste, consider an overnight stay to fully immerse yourself in the diving hotspots and serene shores. Snorkel through vibrant ecosystems, where colorful fish dart among thriving coral in Anilao and Nasugbu.
