Sagada : It's like you're in heaven

---

Out of the 35 provinces I have been to here in the Philippines Sagada is my top 1 pick. It is truly a majestic place where you feel like you’re in heaven. The scenery is very nice and very peaceful. It is an untouched paradise.

If you are an adventurous person this will be the perfect place for you since most of the tourist spots here in Sagada requires you to do trekking. Even though it took us 14 hours from Manila to Sagada it is truly worth it. There are so many things to do in Sagada like Trekking, Mountain Biking, Spelunking, Kayaking, Mountain Climbing, Camping, and River Rafting. There are so many places to see like Kiltepan Peak, Sumaging Cave, Echo Valley and Hanging Coffins. The people here in Sagada are very nice.

The thing that you got to love about Sagada is that it is not commercialize. The only people who can do business here are the native so there are no hotels to stay here but there are many inns. The inns here in Sagada are like house which will provide you simple room with water heater and free breakfast. Rooms in Sagada cost from P200 to P500 per person per night.

I recommend that the perfect itinerary for your Sagada Trip would be Banaue- Bontoc – Sagada- Mt. Data – Baguio- Manila. The trip from Manila to Sagada will take you up to 12 to 14 hours.

I also recommend that you rent a van rather than commute because it is very tiring. Van rental from Manila to Sagada will cost you about P 23,000 which includes toll fees, driver, and gas.
