Taal Sightseeing Tour

From: 6,000.00


The Taal boat ride takes you across Taal Lake to Taal Island, offering stunning views of the surrounding landscapes and the active volcano. The journey typically lasts around 30 minutes and is done on a *banká*, a traditional Filipino wooden boat with outriggers. As you glide across the lake, you’ll enjoy scenic views of the lush greenery, the clear waters of the lake, and the dramatic crater of the volcano in the distance. It’s a unique and tranquil experience, though access to the island is currently restricted due to the active volcanic status.

Itinerary

We will first visit Taal Vista Hotel, located on the ridge in Tagaytay, where you can learn about the rich history of Taal Volcano through informative text and videos. Afterward, we’ll drive to the pier and take a 30-minute banka (local wooden boat) ride to Taal Island for a closer view of the volcano. Alternatively, you can opt to kayak to the island. However, please note that we are currently not allowed to enter the island due to the volcano’s active status.

After returning from the lake, we will have a late lunch (at your own expense) at a lakeshore resort. Before heading back to Manila (approximately a 2.5-hour drive), we will stop by a local fruit market.
