Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- almaaX2907EV0 contributionsA must do !The experience is quiet chill and interesting and knowledgeable, see some different things in the Philippines was definitely an amazing experience. Tagaytay and Manila was perfect combo tour for a day trip, if you want to see good transitions of the historical places to a greenery spots in the country. But you need to find and get Seana as your guide, by her you will know everything and the tour is not boring because of the mood that she brings. Overall this experience was worth to take and very affordable.Written September 15, 2024
- garyaR5471VW0 contributionsManila Blast by Seana Travel TimeIt was an amazing tour here in the Philippines. We seen a lot of things from the countryside to the city side of Metro Manila. Our experience was memorable and turn out to amazing day because of our guide named Seana!!! Everything that you need was on her, from the beginning up until the end. We can say that it was a well managed tour and informative as well.Written September 15, 2024
- X7146SNsandral0 contributionsPerfect Manila Exploration Tour!Awesome way to start off your travels in Manila! Our Tour Guide Seana was so informative and made the tour so enjoyable! We started off with a little food tasting tour on our way up to see the volcano in Tagaytay! We tried so many fruits but my fave was the Coconut Pie!!! 🥥 🥧 It was raining and foggy when we arrived but Seana and Dave went out of their way to rec waiting for the rain to clear up and it did!!! We got to see the volcano! They know the hidden spots! 😉 Intramuros was so amazing to see and learn about! Usually I’m not that much into history but Seana made it so fun to learn and gave us so many interesting facts! They allowed us to take a break when we needed to and honestly went above and beyond to help us out and rec things to do in Manila! As we made stops, our driver Dave was always there to pick us up after we got dropped off and the traffic can get pretty bad, since it was raining, I’m really glad he was always on time! I really appreciated this! If you want an easygoing start to your trip then this tour is great!!Written September 15, 2024

- krystalbG6625DD0 contributionsPagsanjan Falls with Travel Time PhilippinesPagsanjan Falls was beautiful, as was the ride to and from over the water. I was supposed to go with a friend who got sick so ended up going solo and couldn't have asked for a better tour guide and driver. Seana and Peds were amazing- very nice, lots of fun and knowledgeable. Even though it was an early morning start, Seana brought the perfect amount of energy that made it fun but not draining. If ever I am back in the area I will definitely request the 2 of them for a tour!Written August 16, 2024

Day 1: Arrival in Banaue Our journey began in Banaue, where we were greeted by the breathtaking views of the iconic rice terraces. Staying at a local guesthouse, we were immersed in the culture and hospitality of the Ifugao people. A short trek around the terraces was mesmerizing; the vibrant green fields cascading down the mountainside were unlike anything I had ever seen.
Day 2: Exploring Banaue We spent the day exploring more of the rice terraces. A guided tour took us to the Batad rice terraces, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The hike to the viewpoint was challenging but absolutely worth it. The panoramic views were stunning, and our guide shared fascinating stories about the Ifugao traditions and rice farming techniques.
Day 3: Sagada Hanging Coffins Leaving Banaue, we headed to Sagada. The drive was scenic, with winding roads and lush landscapes. Once in Sagada, we visited the famous hanging coffins. The experience was both haunting and beautiful. We learned about the unique burial practices of the local Igorot tribe. Later, we explored the Sumaguing Cave, where we navigated through incredible limestone formations.
Day 4: More of Sagada We took part in a sunrise trek to Kiltepan Viewpoint. Watching the sunrise over the mountains was an unforgettable moment, with the fog rolling in like a dream. After breakfast, we visited Echo Valley and the burial sites, immersing ourselves in the culture. The afternoon was spent at a local café, enjoying traditional cuisine.
Day 5: Journey to Baguio City On our way to Baguio, we stopped at the picturesque town of Besao for some local handicrafts. Upon reaching Baguio, we were welcomed by the cool mountain air and vibrant flowers. We visited Burnham Park, where we rented a boat and enjoyed a relaxing afternoon on the lake.
Day 6: Exploring Baguio We started our day at the famous Baguio Market, where we indulged in fresh strawberries and local delicacies. A visit to the Philippine Military Academy was fascinating, and we learned about the country’s military history. In the afternoon, we explored the BenCab Museum, showcasing contemporary Filipino art amidst stunning views.
Day 7: Departure Our final day was bittersweet. We visited the historic Camp John Hay and took a leisurely walk through the pine-scented trails. Before heading back, we stopped by the Botanical Garden, soaking in the beauty of the flowers and greenery.
Overall Impression This 7-day trip was an incredible journey through the heart of the Philippines. The combination of natural beauty, rich culture, and warm hospitality left a lasting impression. Whether you’re trekking the rice terraces or experiencing the unique customs of Sagada, this trip is a must for any adventure seeker. Highly recommend!
