What comes to your mind when you hear
Tagaytay?
If you are not an outgoing person who
explore things out you would think that visiting Tagaytay is not a good idea for
a budget travel because of its Pricey market.
Well, You Got it… WRONG!
In fact, you can enjoy Tagaytay with even/at
least 2000 pesos.
And again…
Yes! 2000 pesos
When you are from Metro Manila, you should
be aware of this. Sometimes, we from Metro Manila usually invest and spend to
travel by plane and by sea and overlooked the nearest possible place to relax
with our little budget.
Enjoy the cool weather of Tagaytay without
spending too much.
Thru this blog I will share how I made my
2000 pesos a gateway to Tagaytay budget
Tour.
Let’s Go!!!
What are the things you should be aware of:
Do not be fooled by the tricycle drivers
offering the (as if ) best deal in your entire life.
Riding tricycle is more ideal if you’re in group
of 4 or more. Since we are already on the topic of transportation, I’ll begin
here:
The very first thing to know how to get to
Tagaytay. Transportation (what and where to ride?).
We ride a bus from pasay terminal. (at taft
station of MRT walk at the back of Mcdonald’s)
Fare: ranging from 85-90php.
1 hr and 30 minutes estimated travel time.
2nd, The most common money eater
in every vacation, the Accomodation. (Where to Stay?)
If you are planning to spend overnight in
Tagaytay, Just choose the near to main road or walking distance so you can save time and spend time on the street of Tagaytay instead.
You can send me a message for my suggestion
contacts like 500 below rate per peson. (we are not paid or whatsoever, We just used to collect contacts of
affordable Transients in Tagaytay so we already have our choices when we need
to stay longer there. Might help to others.)
Since for me if you are in a place to
explore not just to sleep you wouldn’t stay whole day in your room, you just
need a comfortable bed and a safe place to leave your things and bags.
(Where
to Go?)
I was inspired on my first visit in
Tagaytay that’s why I made this blog post. We'l
People’s Park in the Sky.
Like many children I didn’t visit People’s
park in the Sky when I was a kid that is why my excitement level was as high as
where it is located. (:D kidding)
If you are planning to take a shot here but
you have a limited time, go here first and enjoy the view of Tagaytay, Taal
Volcano, Taal lake and Tagaytay Highlands.
You can
ride a Jeepney at Olivarez terminal to get here. Only P17 only.
Entrance: 30 pesos
Picnic Grove.
The first time I came here was I think when I am only 8 years old.? not sure. haha
In our case, we took the E. Aguinaldo Highway so we go first to People's park in the sky before Picnic Grove for budget and time saving purposes.
There are lots of activities you can do here, actually some people spend more time here because of low entrance fee. activities are ziplines, side seeing, picnic with fam. etc. some activities like horse back riding, and kiddie rides in Sky Ranch.
Entrance : 50 pesos
Sky Ranch.
Best known because of the highest Ferris Wheel in town, the "Sky Eye".
Experience and enjoy more the awesome view of Taal volcano from the most highest.
Entrance: 100 pesos
(Where to Eat)
This is my favorite!
EATING!!! :))
In eating, whenever I travel I always go to the Place's Spcialties. woah! overheard that Bulalo is the Best in Tagaytay! sooooo LET's Go.!
I can't speak for other much pricey restaurant unless I have eaten there already. In Tagaytay, I only tasted the Don Juan, and 2 stores with Bulalo specialty.
Mahogany Market:
Located in Mahogany Market. Alegre.
So far, my best bulalo experience. I highly suggest Alegre's Bulalo. I do not know, but it is more tasty among the three bulalos. Best partner with their crispy tawilis. Hmmmm.
take a jeep from Olivarez going to Mahogany Market. fare: 8 pesos.
we tried other bulalo of other store but I do not like that much so I'll better share Alegre's intead. from then we go back to Alegre's and did not dare to try other stores, maybe we'll try them but not for now.
Next is the Don Juan's
I did not like their Bulalo but I do like their sisig. pork sisig, very much! this is locate at Magallanes in front of Starbucks and Leslies. if want to have dinner with the best sisig it is also 1 jeep from Olivarez and you can ride a bus back to Manila from this place, much better than from Olivarez.
Dessert?
A well spend time is to spend it with sweet and a nice view.
Bag of Beans
I only hear this exclusive in Tagaytay. well a bit pricey but the best Blueberry cheesecake and I can say my favorite.
Their Signature coffee will surely awake you by its natural kick and true taste of coffee. bottom less? its ok.
Spend time alone or with friends it doesn't matter as long as you enjoying it. - mersacabal
Until my Next travel guide.... wish it helped. :)
