5.00We had a great time! This was a meaningful experience that challenged us to think about the richness of the culture we were discovering while having really rewarding hikes. The guide that accompanied us was very knowledgeable and gave us the context we needed to make the most of this trip. The best part was the balance between cultural elements and spectacular nature discovery.
Amazing trip with the best guide

5.00My family and I had a truly unforgettable and unique adventure in Sagada, Banaue and Batad. This is not our usual type of trip, so we’re grateful we booked through Vagabond Pinas and had Brayan as our guide the whole time. He helped and guided us all the way.. down to even the littlest things! He, along with our driver and all other local guides, were very accommodating and knowledgeable. It was amazing to see all the sights of Sagada and Ifugao. I would recommend Vagabond Pinas and this itinerary to all my friends! I can’t wait to book another adventure with them.
Wonderful and unforgettable experience

5.00We had a 5-day private family tour visiting Sagada/Banaue/Batad and it was a memorable experience. It was great to see and hike the magnificent rice terraces. Brayan was an excellent tour guide - very knowledgeable about the areas and their history. He was especially considerate and went out of his way to help those in our group who found some of the hikes challenging. I would highly recommend this tour if you want to experience another aspect of the Philippines. The hikes were immersive and the views of the rice terraces (esp in Batad) were simply breathtaking. Thanks to Brayan for guiding us on this amazing tour.
Great hiking tours - beautiful landscapes- Brayan was a great guide

5.00We had a great trip with our tour guide Brayan. It was good to see another side of the Philippines rather than our usual mix of city and beach. The area around Sagada and especially the Banaue/Batad was really beautiful and we loved the hikes we did. Brayan was extremely nice, knowledgeable and always helpful to those in our group who needed a bit of help during the hikes. Great experience- recommended for anyone that enjoys nature, nice landscapes and doesn’t mind a bit of physical activity!

5.00The trip really gave us a very indepth exposure of the mountain province, which go beyond normal sightseeing. It also allow us to have a better understanding of the people and culture. The view of the rice fields are just gorgerous. The hiking/ caving part could be phsyically challenging to us but the guides have been very caring and supportive to tailor the experience to our levels. We are grateful that we have made it!!
Excellent adventure-highly recommend

5.00Myself and husband loved our 5 day trip. JP and his team looked after us very well and the communication pre-trip was very clear. Edmon was our main tour guide and he was excellent throughout! He was very informative and good fun to be with. The itinerary is well planned and we were kept busy without feeling overly exerted. Edmon also adapted our trip to meet our needs including caving in Sagada-which we loved! Jonathan was our tour guide in Batad-he was also fabulous! He is very knowledgeable and was very patient with us whilst trekking and visiting the waterfall. All of the people we met during our trip were welcoming and I will remember this adventure fondly as it was filled with so much happiness and laughter. Thankyou so much for an amazing adventure
Amazing!

5.00We just had an incredible experience thanks to JP who accompanied us during these 5 days. The program and services it offers are perfect for this stay. We discovered Sagada, Banaue and Batad in optimal conditions. JP shows great kindness. He has been very caring with us and taught us a lot. It allowed us to discover more than these places: food, local life, history etc. We recommend it 1000 times!!!
Unmissable
