Mountain Getaway for Two
When honeymooning, the secret is to strike that balance between adventure and alone time so why not get the best of both worlds and book a tour that isn’t riddled with tourists yet? You’ll have a one-of-a-kind adventure with your sweetheart as well as visit places that tourists haven’t discovered yet. Such a tour is Uncharted Philippines’ Mountain Province Hidden Gems tour.
During this Northern Luzon getaway, you and your dearest love will trek through rice terraces, discover waterfalls and live like locals in villages. You’ll enjoy the mountain fresh air as you discover Maligcong and Sadanga. This trip is so exclusive that they don’t even advertise the names of the local waterfalls, rice terraces and villages as they don’t want these areas to become overrun with tourism. That works for you, too, since you get a true local experience that is unsurpassed.
