Terrible tour
Marijo A,,Mar 3, 2025
- Review from Viator
1.00Very poor experience. Late pick-up (45 minutes), tour guide asleep in the car, car ride extremely bumpy and nauseating. Spent 80% of the time in the car. Only stopped to take scenery photos or see a couple of churches. No lunch plans (even to pay for our own). Definitely do NOT recommend.
John the best guide

5.00John our guide was excellent: friendly, knowledgeable and could not have done more to make it an enjoyable tour. Unfortunately the low cloud blocked the view from the mountain but the boat ride to the volcanic mountain was excellent. The cave church was unique. Taal was a gem of Spanish settlement for history buffs.
Fab trip to the countryside

5.00I did this trip to Tagaytay ,Taal Lake and heritage Taal . It was a great day . We saw a lot and the guide was very informative , spoke excellent English and was very flexible to our needs . We were in a group of 6 for part of the trip and then it was just the two of us plus the guide . The drivers were very good ,safe and searched for the fastest way back to town .
A fun day trip to escape the city

5.00Punctual pickup at our Manila hotel in the morning. Fund and knowledgeable guide, and first we stopped at various fruit stands, markets, a sweets store to sample local delicacies. Then off to various areas in and around Taal. Couldn't walk close to volcano due to activity, but stopped at good spots to take in the panoramic view. We really liked Taal with its historic buildings, St. Martin's church and spend roughly 90 minutes here towards the end. We liked the variety and glimpse into rural Philippines as part of this day tour, incl. a local village and visiting some caves as well!
Underrated and Unpopular site must visit!!

5.00A must visit. It’s an active volcano site. Overlooking by the Italian restaurant housed inside Cliffhouse. Amazing food, super delicious, quite pricey but worth it. Beautiful views of the Taal lake and Volcano. Around 2 hours drive from Metro Manila with amazing, most beautiful and decorative Starbucks in The world located within this vicinity. A must visit.
A great way to spend a day outside of Manila with a thoughtful planned itinerary and all things taken care of

5.00Awesome day, John drove us from Manila to Taal Volcano, Eddie described everything we passed on the way and provides bits of Philippine History. Myra assisted to add context. The volcano and lake were beautiful, we had a wonderful lunch at Loumar's Restaurant. After lunch we saw a wedding at the Heritage district and did some shopping.. We listened to music and had enjoyable conversation on the way back!
WE HAVE SO MUCH FUN

5.00We loved this day tour! Seana, Sean and Kyle looked after us very well. Seana had great local and historical knowledge and we really enjoyed experiencing some local cuisine. The views of the volcano and surrounding areas were excellent and the historic area of Taal beautiful. And we got to ride in a Jeepney! We would thoroughly recommend this tour.
A great day with Sean!

5.00First off the team at YOLO tours were extremely responsive. Sean was amazing and reached out to us to confirm pickup time and what we needed to bring promptly after our short-notice booking. We were picked up on time in a comfy van by Sean and the rest of the team who made us feel really comfortable and that we were in good hands! The trip up to Tagaytay was fantastic, lots to hear about and learn on the way from all the guides. There are heaps of snacks along the way and we loved the pie and pineapple! Tagaytay and the people’s park in the sky were great and we had great views just before the clouds rolled in and we headed off to Taal. We were lucky enough to have Sean to ourselves for the trip to Taal and she was extremely generous with her knowledge and stories. We had a long but really pleasant journey home with the opportunity to see much more of the countryside and Red our driver was expert level
