Must try experience are:
  • Cliff Diving
  • Tour the Quitinday Cave/ Underground River in a bamboo raft (don't forget to use the life vest they are providing to ensure your safety)
  • explore the clear waters
  • swim against the strong current of water and get near Sigpit Falls
  • try the mountain climbing experience at Sigpit Falls
Important Note:

 PROS and CONS

Getting there by riding a motorcycle:
  • way cheaper! (spent only Php 100.00 for the gasoline- vice versa trip) 
  • have the opportunity to see the awesome view
  • faster way to get there (took us only 30 minutes to reach the magnificent place!)
  • you'll get uneven tan lines (so do wear sunscreen/  sunblock
  • a bit risky (we wore helmets but we removed it when we reached our friend's place (although it was not shown in the vid)
but if you are as adventurous like us, this is way better!!!!

 visiting the place on peak season:

  • you can mingle with the locals and the tourist
  • the place is too crowded!
we wanted quiet time, so it was not the perfect time when we went there. (It was before Holy Week)


other tips:
  • wear comfy clothes fit for trekking/ hiking
  • do not remove your shoes/slippers when swimming, rocks/ stones under water are sharp
  • bring food and water/ drinks (lots of food!)
we were fortunate that Kring (our friend/ tour guide) prepared food for us :-)
*although there are food sold at the area but this will help you not to spend too much!
TRAVEL EXPENSES:


Php 20.00- Entrance Fee
Php 100.00- Gasoline
Total of: Php 120.00
