Lubang Island

Taal is the name of a lake, a volcano and a town. Taal Lake is the third largest lake in country and is actually the caldera of a very large extinct volcano. In the center of this lake is Taal Volcano which is very active. A volcano within a volcano, Taal’s beauty and uniqueness make it one of the country’s must see sights. On this trip we get a spectacular view of Taal Volcano and Taal Lake from Tagaytay ridge, the country's most popular weekend destination.

Just off the shore of Taal Lake is Taal Heritage Town, established in 1572. It is one of the oldest towns in the country and home to Asia's biggest Catholic church as well as a collection of old houses that showcase traditional Filipino-Spanish architecture. The town and its people played an important role in the Philippine revolution against the Spanish and is a great place to learn about the country’s history and culture. Taal Town is also known for making the country's best barongs, our traditional formal men's attire, and it is the birthplace of the famous balisong or butterfly knife.

This trip takes 8 hours and is the perfect excursion to take if you are making a cruise ship stop in Manila.
