Start your day with a relaxing hotel pickup and a scenic drive to Tagaytay City, where you’ll visit the Taal Volcano Ridge first. Here, your knowledgeable guide will share fascinating insights about the dramatic 2020 eruption, which sent ash plumes all the way to Manila and forced over 150,000 residents to evacuate. Learn about the volcano's powerful history and how it remains one of the Philippines' most active and closely monitored volcanoes. Stop at a picturesque viewpoint to capture a stunning photo of the active, sulfur-emitting volcano, surrounded by lush greenery and offering sweeping views of the lake below.

Next, head to The Little Boracay near Manila, a peaceful beach sandbar where you’ll explore the Starfish Sanctuary. Swim alongside vibrant marine life and snorkel in crystal-clear waters with a free dry snorkelling mask featuring 180° vision, anti-fog properties, and a provision for a GoPro attachment to capture your underwater adventure.

Afterwards, relax in a charming floating bamboo house cottage in the middle of the sea, where your friendly host will cook and prepare a delicious local meal just for you. Enjoy fresh tropical fruits, snacks, and a freshly prepared meal, all while soaking in the serene ocean views. It’s the perfect spot to unwind, savour local flavours, and embrace the tranquility of this unique experience.
