    Perfect View
    Perfect Cone, Perfect View, Amazing Volcano, those are the things that will totally remains on your head if you see the beauty of Mt. Mayon Volcano. Mayon Volcano is still active, if you try to visit you can see the smoke coming from the top of the cone. 475 kilometers travel manila to albay legazpi, 700 php Gasoline, 12 hours ride (NMax) those are the total you need to consume if you want to see the stunning beauty of mount Mayon. But "PROMISE" once you got there, all stress, pain and other negative feeling will totally relieved when you started to staring the beauty of Mayon.

    Mayon Volcano
    The highlight of our visit to Bicol was Mayan Volcano. We stayed in a hotel Casablanca suites in Legaspi that overlooked Mount Mayan and Lignon Hill. We captured great views from Lignon Hill and had fun with the zip line. I would strongly recommend a visual to Daraga Cathedral as it is an awesome church and also has great views. We visited the Caswaga ruins and rounded out our visit with a trip up the Mountain on the road to Tobaco PH. It is not well marked so you will need to be observant. The windy road is several kilometers long but well worth the vistas of the shoreline and mountain though you will probably be in the clouds and not see the top.

    Always breathtaking
    During my 3rd trip to Legazpi, I first glimpsed Mayon breaking through the clouds in the early morning as our approached to land, with a long wisp of white smoke like the vapor trail of a jet. Once we landed, the word majestic comes to mind seeing it looming so big right in front of you, looking so near. Locals would take you for a good person if you saw Mayon, though I'd take that lightheartedly; on my previous visit 2 years ago, haze and clouds kept it from view. But this is always the highlight, if not the main purpose, of any visit to Albay.

Can’t get enough of Mt Mayon. You can go around it and realise that it looks the same anyway you position yourself. Glad it showed itself during our visit.

Strongly recommend for everyone to visit the Mayon Volcano when you get the chance. We were lucky to see her full beauty. One ticked off my bucket list.
The locals are friendly, food are yummy, and
cheap accommodations as well with ac and hot water.
Would definitely come back!!

Mayon is one of the famous and most scenic volcanoes in the Philippines. It stands almost 2,500 meters tall and is visible from many cities and towns of Albay Province. The best time to view its almost perfect cone is early in the morning since clouds tend to cover it the rest of the day. Great spots to view Mayon Volcano would be the Cagsawa Ruins, the town of Camalig, and the city of Tabaco. A visit to Bicol won't be complete without a glimpse of this masterpiece of nature! :D
