A Warm Tagaytay GetAway

I just cannot resist travelling to Tagaytay at least once in a year...but this year I travel and stayed overnight with Nanay, Renzo, Lara, and with Mars. I considered this as a family treat for a pre-birthday celebration.




Tagaytay City: Tagaytay city is one of the country's most popular tourist destinations. Tagaytay city provides a good view of the Taal Volcano. The city is a popular summer tourist destination because of its cool climate due to its high altitude. 

Top 5 Places to visit in Tagaytay: 
1. Tagaytay Picnic Grove
2. Tierra De Maria
3. Sky Ranch Theme Park
3. Pink Sisters
4. Food Trip

The Picnic Grove is not usually a friendly place for elders as exploring the entire place will require a lot of walking and stair climbing but for Nanay, it is quite different. Nanay just turned 69 years old last August 12 but she is very much used to trekking. I would say much more used to than my nephew and niece. Php50 entrance fee and activities inside that you can enjoy like zipline, cable cars and horse back riding for a fee.  You can also find a lot of Tagaytay souvenirs with a good price. 

After our sumptuous lunch at Picnic Grove, we checked in an economy hotel for an overnight stay. At 3pm, we continue our "lakwatsa" to Skyranch.

There are a lot of rides that you can enjoy at Skyranch. Renzo and Lara enjoyed the Sky Eye ride, Super Viking s and Drop Tower. Nanay rode the carousel.We stayed there until 7pm where we have experienced a glimpse of sunset and fog by 6pm then Dinner at Mc Donald before we retire to bed at our hotel.

I thought we would just end our getaway that way but I and Mars went to Pink Sisters for the 6;30am mass the following day.

One last trip...a sidetrip at Nuvali Sta Rosa before we end up our getaway.

We took another sumptuous lunch at Uncle Cheffy at Nuvali where everyone is happy and have enjoyed the set meal. A good healthy lunch for  a good price!


Tagaytay is one of my resting place because of its weather, breathtaking view of taal, and nice food. I will always go back to this place over and over again. It is a warm Tagaytay getaway this year coz this time I'm not alone and thanks to the long weekend where I had a chance to invite them to go out of town. A recently declared "State of Lawlessness" did not prevent me back to my fave getaway...in fact, I just feel safer with less worries on someone that I need to look after to. 

Thank you Lord for a well spent time! and a Happy Long Weekend!
