This is a
tour for people who really love nature or eco-tourism. We bring you to the
beautiful landscape of the southern part of the island of Luzon.
We drive
from Angeles City (or previous travel module) to the beautiful Lake Laguna,
from here we travel to Lucena and into the Bicol Region. We stay the night in
Gumaga.
We leave
the next morning to the province of Sorsogon. We drive through the beautiful
landscape passing Mount Mayon to the southern part of Bicol. We stay in Donsol,
“The Whale Shark Capital City Of The World".
From
October until May you can swim in Donsol with the biggest fish in the world,
the gentle giants of the sea the Whale Sharks and also with many dolphins. The
Wale Shark can reach a length of 19 meters. With cooperation from The World
Wild Life Fund they organize here Butanding Inter Actions Tours. Butanding is
the local name of the Whale Shark. Every year there is a Butanding festival.
By boat we
watch these giants of the sea or even swim with them. This is “The Ultimate
Wild Life Encounter” the only place in the world where this is possible. Our
hotel is directly on the sea with a beautiful view over the Sorsogon Bay. From
here you can watch spectacular sunsets.
From the
beautiful area of Donsol we leave to Bulusan. We go to Barcelona and bring a
visit to the historic old church. Because of its landscape the area is called
here "The Little Switzerland of Asia".
We stay
overnight in a private villa beach resort on the beach of the Pacific Ocean. We
have a private cook who takes good care of us and we enjoy the local dishes.
We visit
the volcano Bulusan. At 800 meters lies Lake Bulusan. We make an 2 hours
adventurer walk around the lake. Here you see giant mushrooms and a exceptional
flora and fauna. The sceneries here are breathtaking beautiful.
In the
afternoon we visit some hot water springs. We enjoy the warm water with its
medical treatment.
After
breakfast, we leave for Legaspi. In the background his majestic pyramid formed
volcano, Mount Mayon. This volcano is still active. We visit the ruins of
Cagsawa. The volcano outbreak of 1 February 1814 destroyed this town and it
disappeared nearly completely under the lava. From the on a hill in Barock
style build Franciscan church is only a part of the bell tower still above the
ground. The rest of the church disappeared under the lava stream.
After
lunch we visit the local market of Naga where we stay overnight. The region of
Bicol is well known for his many festivities. Everywhere you see the smiling
children who like to be in the picture with you.
After
breakfast we leave to the beautiful province of Laguna. Famous because of its
many hot water springs. We stay overnight in Calamba. Calamba is famous as the
birthplace of the national hero Dr. Jose Rizal who was the hero of the
resistance against the Spanish occupation. We visit the house in which he was
born which is now a museum. We leave for Angeles City or the starting point of
the new travel module.
This tour
is an ideal connection to the "Angeles City, & Pagsanjan Tour"
and/or the "Mindoro Tour". The "Manila & Taal Volcano
Tour" and especially the "Samar & Leyte Tour" is good to
continue with.
