TAGAYTAY TRAVEL GUIDE with Sample Itinerary & Budget
![tagaytay tourist spots without entrance fee By continuing to read this article, you agree to double-check with the concerned establishments for the latest updates.](https://www.thepoortraveler.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Pre-Reminders.jpg)
Long before Manila-dwellers began a long-distance affair with the highlands of Baguio, Sagada and Kalinga, they have been in a long-standing romance with Tagaytay. It’s not a high-maintenance relationship. The physical connection is there. It is geographically close, easily accessible, and it doesn’t demand too much time or money. It’s the kind that will last over more decades.
Tagaytay is no stranger to me. I live in a Batangas town not too far away from Tagaytay. For the longest time, every time I would come back home, the van that I was riding would drive through the city. And since I started earning on my own, it would be my go-to place for clarity or peace of mind. And I’m not alone in this.
WHAT'S COVERED IN THIS GUIDE?
UNDERSTANDING TAGAYTAY
Located just around 60km from Manila, Tagaytay City has always been the go-to destination for those wishing to escape the searing heat of the capital, especially in the summer season. They come here for two reasons: a cooler climate and a breathtaking view of Taal Lake and Volcano.
Most people think that Taal Volcano is the small cratered hill on one end of the island in the middle of the lake often depicted in postcards and photographs. The truth is, that is Binintiang Malaki , just one of the volcano’s many cones and craters. Taal Lake itself was actually the caldera of an enormous ancient volcano formed after cataclysmic eruptions in the prehistoric times. The only active part now is that island in the middle of the lake called Volcano Island .
Like a giant balcony with a fantastic view, Tagaytay is perched on the northern ridges of Taal Lake, attracting thousands of vacationers and supporting its massive tourism industry. Its highways and inner alleys are lined with a wide array of accommodations, from luxury villas to budget hotels, and restaurants, ranging from fine dining to its homegrown fast food places.
![tagaytay tourist spots without entrance fee](https://www.thepoortraveler.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Tagaytay-View.jpg)
Tagaytay is also a great base for travelers who wish to explore neighboring municipalities like Alfonso and Amadeo, and even parts of Batangas like the volcano itself, Nasugbu, and Lemery.
Tagaytay takes a rectangular shape on the map, so it’s easy to navigate. At the very center of it is the Tagaytay Rotonda, from which stems out four main roads:
![tagaytay tourist spots without entrance fee](https://www.thepoortraveler.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Tagaytay-Map.jpg)
- Emilio Aguinaldo Highway , which connects Tagaytay to Imus, Dasmarinas, and Manila.
- Tagaytay-Calamba Road , which links the city to the towns of Laguna. If you’re coming from South Luzon Express Way (SLEX), you’ll eventually hit this road going to Tagaytay.
- Tagaytay-Nasugbu Highway , which can take you to Alfonso (Cavite) and Nasugbu and Lemery (Batangas).
- Tagaytay-Talisay Road , which cuts across a forested slope to Talisay (Batangas), where Taal Volcano is located.
Being familiar with these roads will make your travel planning a lot easier, especially when picking a hotel and places to visit.
Here are more useful bits about Tagaytay.
- Language: Tagalog is used by most. But English is widely understood and spoken.
- Currency: Philippine peso (PHP, ₱). PHP100 is around USD 1.90, EUR 1.69, SGD 2.57 (as of April 2019).
- Modes of payment: Credit cards are accepted by many establishments but CASH is still king (and queen) in Tagaytay.
- Electricity Info: 220V, 60Hz. Plug and socket Type A.
![tagaytay tourist spots without entrance fee](https://www.thepoortraveler.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Electric-Socket-Type-A.jpg)
WHERE TO STAY IN TAGAYTAY
In places like El Nido or Batanes, I usually don’t mind staying in a guest house with no view and no frills because I would be spending much of my time outside anyway. But Tagaytay is one of those destinations where accommodations can make or break a trip. It’s all about the ambience and the experience. Whether you’re visiting Tagaytay to unwind, attend a conference, or have a romantic weekend, it is important to consider the location.
Best Area to Stay in Tagaytay
Tagaytay has become a major tourist magnet that it has become almost synonymous with this corner of Cavite. Property-owners often market and label their hotels, lodges or guesthouses “Tagaytay” even when they are technically located in surrounding municipalities like Alfonso, Silang, and Mendez. Try to keep that in mind when searching for a place to stay.
For tourists, there are three main areas that are great bases when exploring Tagaytay and nearby towns:
- Tagaytay Rotonda Area. Often casually referred to as simply Olivarez. It is the center of the city. As explained above, the major roads running across the city start or end here. It is surrounded by countless lodging and dining options. It is also the main transportation hub.
- Along Tagaytay-Nasugbu Highway. This is a little bit farther than the Rotonda area, but this has the best view of the lake and the volcano, provided that you book a hotel on the lakeside. This is also where SkyRanch and Ayala Malls Serin are located.
- Along Tagaytay-Calamba Road. This area is closest to tourist spots like Tagaytay Picnic Grove and People’s Park in the Sky. Lots of restaurant and hotel options too, with some also offering a good view of the lake.
Personally, I like staying along Tagaytay-Nasugbu Road because it’s a lot quieter and has the best view of the lake. If you don’t trust my word, here are the top budget hotels in Tagaytay as scored by Agoda users.
Top Budget Hotels and BnBs in Tagaytay
The best hotels in Tagaytay are expensive, but there are some exceptions. Bed-and-breakfast places also offer a great alternative. Here’s a list compiled using Agoda reviews.

Top Apartments and Condo for Rent in Tagaytay
If budget is an issue, then ditch the hotel and consider staying at a BnB, guesthouse, or apartment for rent, which are significantly cheaper. There’s been a considerable number of condo units for rent at Wind Residences (SMDC) along Tagaytay-Nasugbu Highway and Tagaytay Prime Residences near Rotonda. Here are the top rated apartments/condo units on Agoda.

HOW TO GET TO TAGAYTAY
Manila to tagaytay by bus.
![tagaytay tourist spots without entrance fee](https://www.thepoortraveler.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/DLTB-Bus-to-Calatagan.jpg)
You can catch a bus to Tagaytay at the following terminals.
- Uniwide Coastal Mall in Paranaque. Make your way to the Paranaque Integrated Terminal Exchange (PITX), also called South West Integrated Provincial Terminal. Board a bus bound for Tagaytay, Mendez (neighboring town), or Nasugbu. This bus will be taking Emilio Aguinaldo Highway.
- DLTB Terminal at LRT Buendia area (near LRT Gil Puyat Station), Pasay City. Board the bus bound for either Nasugbu or Calatagan. This will be taking South Luzon Expressway (SLEX) and Carmona Exit and will pass through Tagaytay.
Fare: Around P87. Travel time is 2-3 hours, depending on traffic conditions. Might be much longer during rush hour.
Some important reminders.
- DO NOT TAKE THE BUS TO LEMERY. Lemery-bound buses take the SLEX + STAR Toll. It doesn’t pass through Tagaytay. Buses are not allowed to take Diokno Highway, which connects Tagaytay and Lemery. I know this because I’m from Lemery and our house is very close to Diokno Highway.
- If your hotel is located along Tagaytay-Nasugbu Highway and you’re on a Nasugbu or Calatagan bus, you don’t need to get off at Olivarez or Rotonda. You can stay in the bus and tell the conductor to drop you off at the hotel.
- If you’re going to SkyRanch or Wind Residences , there’s a big chance the bus will not really pass by either even if the driver or conductor says so. Most buses take Mahogany Avenue, which bypasses a section of Tagaytay-Nasugbu Highway approaching Mendez. Instead, they will drop you off at the Petron Gas Station. That’s okay, though, because it’s within walking distance. (SkyRanch is a longer walk but very manageable.) SEE MAP BELOW.
![tagaytay tourist spots without entrance fee](https://www.thepoortraveler.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Skyranch-Map-Tagaytay.jpg)
Manila to Tagaytay by Van
You can also ride a shared van to Tagaytay. Vans bound for Nasugbu, Calatagan or Lemery pass through Tagaytay. You can find one at the following places.
- Starmall EDSA-Shaw. You’ll find vans bound for Lemery at the terminal in front of the mall, along EDSA.
- Alabang. There are vans bound for Tagaytay at Festival Mall Alabang, near the Goldilocks exit. (I haven’t tried it, though.) In addition, there used to be vans bound for Lemery dispatched from the parking area of Starmall Alabang. But they already moved to the area behind the mall, near the ukay-ukay area and PNR Train counter. The number of available vans and passengers has been dwindling so you might be in for quite the wait.
- Metropoint Mall. I’m not sure if there are still vans here going to Calatagan. There used to be, but I haven’t checked in a long time. If there still is, you can take the van going to Calatagan. If vans no longer operate here, you can cross to the other side of EDSA and catch a bus to Calatagan instead.
Whatever you take, tell the driver to drop you off in Tagaytay.
Fare is P180-P200, depending on which part of Manila you’re originating. It’s pricier because vans behave like point-to-point shuttles. Even though you’re alighting in Tagaytay, you’re still paying for the full journey. A passenger getting off in Tagaytay pays the same as another getting off in Batangas.
Important reminders:
- If you’re taking a van to Lemery, tell the driver to drop you off in Tagaytay. Unlike their bus counterparts, Lemery-bound vans usually pass through Tagaytay. However, there are instances when the driver chooses to take the SLEX-STAR Tollway route. It usually happens when there is heavy traffic in Tagaytay/Santa Rosa areas. To be sure, let the driver know that your destination is Tagaytay so he won’t take any detour.
- Vans don’t follow any fixed schedule. The vehicle will NOT leave the terminal unless it is full. If you’re in a hurry and there’s only one vacant seat, you can pay for it and the driver will gladly start the journey. If time is of the essence and there are a lot of empty seats, take the bus instead.
HOW TO GET AROUND TAGAYTAY
There are no taxis in Tagaytay, and Grab doesn’t have any presence either. There are only three modes of transportation available:
- Jeepney. When traveling within the city, the most usual way is by jeepney. From Olivarez/Rotonda, you can take a jeepney to any direction. You can also ride one from any point along the highway back to the city center. Minimum fare is P9, which increases as you go father.
- Bus. You can also take the bus if you’re coming from Rotonda area and going to Mendez, Alfonso, Nasugbu or any destination along Nasugbu-Tagaytay Highway.
- Tricycle. This is the closest thing to a taxi that you can get. You can charter a tricycle to take you straight to your destination. When I asked, “special trips” within the city cost P100. Special, meaning you won’t be sharing the tricycle with anyone else. But if you’re going to the city center, you can pay the per-person charge, which should be around P20. Maybe higher or lower, depending on distance.
THINGS TO DO IN TAGAYTAY & NEARBY TOWNS
Taal volcano.
UPDATE! Taal Volcano recently erupted and is closed to the public.
![tagaytay tourist spots without entrance fee](https://www.thepoortraveler.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/taal-volcano-crater-batangas.jpg)
Tagaytay offers the best views of Taal Volcano. But you know what’s better than admiring it from afar? Being on the volcano itself. From Tagaytay, you can travel to the Batangan town of Talisay, where you can charter a boat that can take you to the volcano island. Once there, you’ll start your trek to the breathtaking caldera. Good if you’re a group so you could split the expenses.
How to get there: From Tagaytay, you can charter a tricycle to take you to Talisay for P150-200. Then, find a boat, which costs P2000 (maximum of 6 pax). It’s also possible to reach Talisay by jeepney, but I don’t have the details.
I’m not fully familiar with this route, to be honest. I’ve been to Taal Volcano and hiked to its main caldera before, but I didn’t come from Tagaytay. I went straight to Talisay via Tanauan.
SkyRanch Tagaytay
![tagaytay tourist spots without entrance fee](https://www.thepoortraveler.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Skyranch-Tagaytay.jpg)
SkyRanch is a relatively new attraction in Tagaytay. Perched on a cliff, overlooking the lake, this is an amusement park built for the enjoyment of the whole family. There are rides for kids and activities for the kids-at-heart. The most arresting structure is the SkyEye , a 63-meter ferris wheel with 32 gondolas. It’s also lined with restaurants and food kiosks!
Hours open Monday-Friday, 10am-10pm Saturday-Sunday, 8am-10pm
Entrance Fee Weekdays: P80 Weekends: P100
Here are the attractions at SkyRanch and the corresponding admission fees.
SkyEye: P150 Super Viking: P100 Flying Bus: P100 Sky Cruiser: P100 Log Coaster: P100 Safari Splash: P120 Bumper Boat: P100 Bumper Race: P100 Drop Tower: P100 Express Train: P80 City Rail: P80 Mini Viking: P50 Racing Car: P50 Nessie Coaster: P50 Wonder Flight: P50 Red Baron: P50 Boat Parade: P50 Toy Swing: P50
How to get there: From Olivarez, ride a jeepney bound for Mendez or Nasugbu. Get off at Sky Ranch. Fare is around P15.

Tagaytay Picnic Grove
![tagaytay tourist spots without entrance fee](https://www.thepoortraveler.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Picnic-Grove.jpg)
Another family-friendly park in Tagaytay. For the longest time, this was the go-to place for relaxation, but a lot has changed (or have not changed) over the years. More attractions like the zipline and cable car ride were introduced, which are great for families. I personally think the park itself has lost its main appeal. But check it out regardless.
Entrance fee: P50
Parking Fee: P35, cars; P50, vans or jeepneys.
Zipline & Cable Car Rates: Weekdays: 1-way ride, P200; 2-way ride, P300. Weekend/Holidays: 1-way ride, P300; 2-way ride, P400.
Hut/Cottage Rental: P100, P150, P300, P500
Operating hours: 7am-7pm
People’s Park in the Sky
It used to be known as Palace in the Sky. Built under Marcos in 1979, it was supposed to be a guest house for visiting US President Ronald Reagan. But due to turning political tides back then, the “palace” was not finished and the visit cancelled. After the EDSA revolution, the name changed to People’s Park in the Sky.
Today, it hasn’t been well-maintained but remains a top attraction in Tagaytay because of the fantastic vista. After all, it stands at the highest point of Tagaytay, allowing a 360-degree view of the surrounding landscape.
How to get there: From Olivarez, charter a tricycle for P150 for special trip or P50 per person.
Puzzle Mansion
Puzzle-lovers unite! The Puzzle Mansion in Tagaytay’s Barangay Asisan houses the world’s largest collection of jigsaw puzzles — all 1028 pieces of them — as certified by the Guiness Book of World Records. This was owned by Georgina Gil-Lacuna who collected these puzzles from her travels.
Entrance fee: P100
Hours open: 8am-5pm
How to get there: From Olivarez/Rotonda, ride a jeepney bound for Alfonso or Nasugbu. Get off at Brgy. Asisan. You can tell the driver to drop you off at the corner going to Puzzle Mansion. Fare: P15. Then hail a tricycle to take you to Puzzle House. Fare: P100.
![tagaytay tourist spots without entrance fee](https://www.thepoortraveler.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Caleruega-Church.jpg)
Caleruega is located in Nasugbu, Batangas, but it is easily accessible from Tagaytay. The place got its name from the municipality of Caleruega in Spain, the birthplace of the father of the Order of the Preachers, Saint Dominic de Guzman. It was built to serve as a venue for contemplation, but has made a name for itself over the years as one of the most well-known wedding venues in the country. It also harbors well-maintained retreat houses and well-manicured gardens.
How to get there: At Olivarez/Rotonda, take the jeepney bound for Nasugbu and tell the driver to drop you off at Hillcrest/Evercrest. Fare: P25. From KC Hillcrest entrance, hail a tricycle to Caleruega Chapel. Fare: P50.

Fantasy World
![tagaytay tourist spots without entrance fee](https://www.thepoortraveler.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Fantasy-World.jpg)
Fantasy World is an unfinished theme park project in the middle of the rolling hills of Lemery, Batangas. (Yep, it’s in Lemery!) Although the construction was halted, they were able to build the castle, which was the park’s centerpiece.
Over the past years, it has become a filming location for movies like Got 2 Believe (starring Claudine Barretto and Rico Yan) and Fantastica (Vice Ganda) and TV shows like GMA 7’s Majika (Angel Locsin, Dennis Trillo).
The rides are not operational, but the park and the castle remains Instagram-worthy. It’s a favorite prenup spot too.
Entrance fee: P100 per person. This used to be P1000 for a group of 10, but this has been changed in November 2019.
How to get there: From Olivarez, ride a jeepney or bus to Boundary (Cavite-Batangas boundary). Fare: P25 for jeepney, P39 for bus. At the boundary, ride a jeepney bound for Lemery and ask to be dropped off in front of Fantasy World. Fare: P18. If there are no jeepneys, you can take a tricycle but it’s pricey. Fare is P200 per ride (not per person).
Tip: There is a cafe nearby called “ Brewed For You .” If you’re visiting around lunch time or you just get hungry, you can stop by and have a bowl of Batangas lomi (P100) and a cup of kapeng barako (P40).

Tagaytay Food Trip
One of the things my cousins and I used to do when we were kids was count the number of restaurants when we were passing through Tagaytay. Many of them are standing strong to this day. From local bulaluhan to western restaurants to food parks to fast food chains, there’s no shortage of dining places in Tagaytay.
Leslie’s and Josephine Restaurant are two local favorites for families. Don’t forget to order a bowl of sinful bulalo! If you’re celebrating something special or you’re simply after ambiance and elegance, there’s Antonio’s Restaurant and Sonya’s Garden (farther in Alfonso).
Bag of Beans has also made a name for themselves for their generous servings of scrumptious dishes. Aside from their main branch along Mendez Crossing, they have five other branches now including one at Summit Ridge (near Robinson’s Supermarket and SM Wind Residences) and one near Silang Crossing (Athena). Try their roast beef!
![tagaytay tourist spots without entrance fee](https://www.thepoortraveler.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Bag-of-Beans-Roast-Beef.jpg)
There budget-friendly places too. Mushroom Burger is the first that comes to mind. It’s a fast-food-style resto featuring mushrooms as their main ingredients. If you’re staying along Tagaytay-Nasugbu Highway, you can easily get here. If you’re coming from SkyRanch, it’s just a 10-minute walk away.

Any more helpful detailed instructions other than “van terminal near the station” for LRT Gil Puyat? Would like to find that FX terminal. (By the way, no signs for visiting commuters that says LRT Buendia, just LRT “Gil Puyat”.) Second question: do you know that the DLTB terminal there is still running services from that terminal to Tagaytay, and have not been moved to PITX?

Hi! We checked again today and found that there are no longer vans bound for Lemery near the LRT station. But the DLTB bus terminal still operates there.
We’ll update the post accordingly.
Thanks so much for checking that question about Tagaytay transport from around LRT Gul Puyat.

10 Best Things To Do In Tagaytay That You Shouldn’t Miss
Living in Baguio for so many years made me crave for the sun, sand, and sea of Cebu and Batangas. I’ve been so lucky I had the chance to stay in Batangas for more than a year in my first job. I got to climb Mt. Maculot , see “pawikans” at Masasa Beach , snorkel at the coral gardens of Isla Verde , and even glamp in Calatagan .
Despite all this, it’s true when they say you’ll miss home. I missed the cold weather of the Cordilleras. Heck, I even miss seeing the pine trees. The first time I stepped in Tagaytay was when I went full on solo and camped at La Veryol’s . Fun times.
The second time was when we had a staycation at Nordic Homes during my friends’ birthdays. The most recent one was when I brought my husband to La Bella Tagaytay.
Tagaytay has so much to offer aside from the cool weather. And if you’re planning a trip to this city anytime soon, here’s the best things to do in Tagaytay.

Tagaytay is filled with so many wonderful restaurants, cafes, and eateries that you shouldn’t miss out. Here are Ryk and I’s suggestions of where to eat in Tagaytay.
- Bag of Beans – You can find a lot of Bag of Beans branches in Tagaytay. Choose one from the many and you’ll be surprised with how awesome the food is. And while waiting for your food, take some photos. Every corner of the restaurant is Instagram worthy!
- Aozora Japanese Restaurant – As the first Japanese restaurant in Tagaytay, you’ll surely be in a treat when you eat here. Their ramen is hella amazing! They’re the only one who sells bulalo ramen.
- Sonya’s Garden – Famous for their Secret Salad Dressing, Sonya’s Garden is often frequented by tourists and locals for their lush garden and salad.
- Antonio’s – As one of the top 20 restaurants in Asia according to the Miele Guide, Antonio’s is the perfect place to celebrate any occasion. Be sure to dress smart casual and avoid slippers.
- Taza Fresh Table Restaurant – Showcasing the local produce, Taza Fresh Table Restaurant is sure to provide you with fresh food.
Don’t forget to go try the Bulalo of Tagaytay. You can choose from several restaurants to eat from but apparently the bulalo in Mahogany is the most famous.

Nestled high up on the ridge of the majestic Taal Volcano, Tagaytay is a picturesque destination renowned for its breathtaking views of Taal Lake and the verdant surrounding landscapes. Tagaytay offers an idyllic escape from the hustle and bustle of city life, inviting visitors to unwind and immerse themselves in nature’s splendor. From its cooler climate to its delectable cuisine, Tagaytay promises an unforgettable experience with friends and family without having to travel too far from Manila.
I’ve listed here some of the things that you can do and tourist spots you can visit in the second summer capital of the Philippines. But before we go to the list, I would like to answer some of the frequently asked questions about Tagaytay:
What is the easiest mode of transport to Tagaytay City?
Private transportation would be the easiest and fastest way to get here. For those who don’t have access to a private vehicle, you have three other options:
1) By bus from the Paranaque Integrated Terminal Exchange in Uniwide Coastal Mall in Paranaque or via DLTB Terminal at LRT Buendia 2) By van from Metropoint Mall, Festival Mall Alabang and Starmall EDSA-Shaw 3) By private van transfer which you can book here: Private Intercity Van Transfer between Manila and Tagaytay 4) By joining tour groups which you can book here: Tagaytay Day Tour
Is it possible to do a day trip to Tagaytay? Definitely! Tagaytay is just 2 to 3 hours away from Metro Manila depending on which point of Metro Manila you’re coming from and on the traffic situation. Best to leave early in the morning so you can cover as many destinations as you want.
Enjoy a cup of coffee with a view
![tagaytay tourist spots without entrance fee Picture](https://iheartph.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/361842188-592617006382449-4018657195413249765-n_orig.jpg)
There are a lot of places in Tagaytay where you can get coffee while appreciating the view of Taal Lake but here are a few of my favorites:
- Bag of Beans Charito
- Starbucks Domicillo (my favorite in Tagaytay!)
- Starbucks Reserve® Hiraya (newest Starbucks addition in Tagaytay, might be my new favorite lol!)
- Concha’s Garden Café
- Ridge Park Kainan sa Kubo

Roam around Picnic Grove
![tagaytay tourist spots without entrance fee Picture](https://iheartph.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/picnic-grove_orig.webp)
Picnic grove is probably the most visited place in Tagaytay and goes way back to the 1970s. For kids in the 80s (like me lol!), it was part of field trips during elementary and highschool. Most people who grew up in Manila and nearby towns/cities have probably been here at least once in their life. There are several activities you can do in Picnic Grove such as horseback riding, ziplining, food tripping, riding their cable car and ferris wheel, or just plain lounging in the picnic huts while enjoying the view.

Calaruega Church is one of the famous churches where weddings are held near Tagaytay. It is located in Nasugbu, Batangas but only a few minutes away from Tagaytay City. For one thing, it’s a really beautiful church surrounded by greeneries which makes it very picturesque.

It is also near some nice reception venues around Tagaytay such as Antonio’s, Balay Indang, Fernwood Gardens, Canyon Woods, Tagaytay Highlands, among others.

If you’re a history buff, you might want to check out the Geronimo Berenguer de los Reyes Jr. Museum or GBR Museum in General Trias, about 30 minutes away from Tagaytay. The well-curated museum contains photographic exhibits that offer a glimpse back at 19th and 20th century Philippines. The collection which spreads over five galleries, shows photos, antique books, and memorabilia of the country’s glorious past.

It was interesting to see how the streets of Old Manila and landmarks around the country used to look like. According to museum curator Ramon Caparas of the GBR Foundation Inc., since the museum houses rare and historic items, photography is not allowed in most of the historical galleries to prevent reproduction of photos.

Photography is allowed near the museum entrance, lobby area, hallways and some of the galleries that I found particularly interesting – the World Aviation History Exhibit, which “traces the evolution of air and space transportation from the Wright Brothers ‘Flying Machine’ to commercial and combat aircrafts, to NASA’s Lunar Roving Vehicle.” The exhibit contains 47 colored in-flight aircraft paintings executed by Stan Stokes, an artist from the USA who did similar paintings for the Smithsonian Institute. Aviation geeks will definitely love this. Having been to many small, not-so well maintained museums in several provinces, it’s great to know that we have quality museums like this in the country.

8. Cool down at the country club
If you’re staying in Microtel, Eagle Ridge Golf & Country Club has several sports and leisure facilities, including a resort-style swimming pool, complete with water slide, bridge walkways and even sand simulating the beach. Since nearby beaches and more accessible pools in the metro will probably be really crowded this summer, this offers a good, exclusive spot away from the crowds.

Xmas day 2017 taal picnic and fair were busy . Road from cavite blocked with traffic . Hot day . But was nice to go out
That’s the problem with Tagaytay especially on weekends and holidays because everyone goes there so traffic can get pretty bad. It was actually quite pleasant driving around in Manila with everyone gone.
Good afternoon po..
May I ask some tips po. We don’t have own car, commute lang. Requested ng father kong itour sta sa tagaytay. Naisip ko po ang pink sister, st. Michael hills… Pro gusto din po sa people’s park, sky ranch, picnic groove at puzzle mansion… Ano po kaya ang dapat unahin sa apat? Yung tipong sunod2x sila.
Maraming salamat po sa tulong. God bless you
Hi Catherine. Here’s a guide for a DIY Tagaytay trip with commuting directions. Yung Puzzle Mansion medyo looban mahirap puntahan kung walang sasakyan, pero along the highway lang yung Sky Ranch, Picnic Grove etc. I suggest you search for the spots on Googlemaps tapos puntahan na lang yung magkakalapit.
Hello Kara! What a great help this guidelines of yours! 🙂 I am now stirring up some excitements because of this. I am planning to go to Tagaytay after my graduation, a gift for myself. Do you think you can help me to save a little bit? What are the wisest possible way shall I do to arrive at Tagaytay when I am actually at Manila Ninoy Airport? Really need some help.

About the City of Tagaytay

Empty a Bowl of Bulalo!
Kapag iniisip natin ang Tagaytay, ang image ng mainit na Bulalo na nagco-compliment sa malamig na weather sa city ang isa sa mga unang pumapasok sa isip natin. Ang culinary map ng Tagaytay ay puno ng mga bulaluhan na minsan ay magkakatabi sa isang area o nasa gilid ng kalsada. Ilan sa mga kilalang restaurants na nagse-serve ng bulalo ay ang Leslie’s Restaurant , Jaytee’s Filipino Cuisine , Bulalo Point , Balinsasayaw Alfresco Dining & Cafe , RSM – La Terrazza Restaurant , Bulalo Capital , Diner’s Original Bulalo at Ridge Park Kainan sa Kubo .
![tagaytay tourist spots without entrance fee Bulalo - Mahogany Market](https://www.philippinebeaches.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Bulalo-Mahogany-Market.jpg)
Isa sa mga pinaka-sikat na bulalohan ay nasa second floor ng two-story building sa Mahogany Market . Para itong food court, pero ang lahat ng stalls ay nagse-serve ng bulalo at iba pang dishes. Halos pare-pareho ang mga choices ng mga pagkain sa menu kaya pumili lang ng spot kung saan ka uupo at umorder sa designated stall. Ang ibang restaurants, tulad ng Balay Dako , ay nagse-serve din ng sizzling bulalo.
Shop for Flowers and Plants
Hindi kumpleto ang Tagaytay scenery kung hindi mo makikita ang mga flower at plant stalls sa gilid ng kalsada lalo na sa kahabaan ng Tagaytay-Santa Rosa Road. Pero teaser pa lang ito sa ino-offer ng Tagaytay para sa mga plantitos at plantitas.
![tagaytay tourist spots without entrance fee Sonya's Garden Plants](https://www.philippinebeaches.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Sonyas-Garden-Plants.jpg)
Sa mga side roads mula sa main road makikita ang malalawak na property na nagbebenta ng iba’t ibang uri ng flowers at plants, pati na rin garden tools at needs tulad ng lupa, pebbles, pots, at iba pa. Makakakuha ka ng mas murang presyo kung pupunta ka sa bandang dulo ng mga streets na ito. Pero kung wala kang masyadaong oras, marami ring options ang mga roadside vendor along the main road.
View of Taal Lake and Volcano
Alam niyo ba na ang tinatawag nating Taal Lake ngayon ay ang caldera ng isang napakalaking ancient volcano? Pero huwag mag-panic, tanging ang maliit na lang na island (Volcano Island) sa gitna ng lake ang active pa rin. Pero dahil sa geological history na ito, maiintindihan mo ang location, geography, at topography ng Tagaytay.
![tagaytay tourist spots without entrance fee Taal Volcano View](https://www.philippinebeaches.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Taal-Volcano-View.jpg)
Nasa edge ng caldera na ito ang Tagaytay City kaya meron itong front seat sa Taal Volcano vistas . At malaking difference ang nabibigay ng view! Maraming taon nang nagbibigay ng aesthetic advantage ang priceless view na ito sa mga commercial establishments tulad ng mga restaurants at hotels na nakakatulong sa economy ng siyudad.
Nakapunta na ang team namin sa ilang accommodations at restaurants na may magandang view ng lake at volcano tulad ng:
- Josephine’s Restaurant (now Rosario by Vikings)
- Bag of Beans Charito
- Ridge Park Kainan sa Kubo

Kung first time mo mag zipline, magandang introduction ito dahil hindi masyadong nakakatakot ang ziplines na meron dito — hindi masyadong mataas at hindi masyadong mahaba. Ang Sky Ranch at Tagaytay Picnic Grove ay parehong may zipline experiences.
Madaling makita ang nasa Sky Ranch habang ang nasa Tagaytay Picnic Grove naman ay malapit sa newly renovated na Picnic Town zone. Ang rates ay nasa P200 to P500, depende sa type at sa araw. Mas mura ang rates kapag weekday.
Sample Fruits and Local Delicacies
Blessed ang Tagaytay ng fertile soil kaya naman agriculture ang isa sa mga main sources ng income ng city bukod sa tourism. Meron na lang ilang pineapple fields ngayon dahil sa urbanization, pero sapat pa rin ang naha-harvest ng Tagaytay para ma-boost ang economy.
![tagaytay tourist spots without entrance fee Cecilia's Buco Pie](https://www.philippinebeaches.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Cecilias-Buco-Pie-.jpg)

Ang People’s Park in the Sky o tinatawag din na “People’s Park” ng locals ay isang unfinished mansion na ginawa noong 1981 sa taas ng isang bundok. Commissioned ito ng Marcos administration para sa pagbisita ni US President Ronald Reagan, kaya ito tinawag na Palace in the Sky noong una. Pero hindi natuloy ang visit na ito at nahinto ang construction.
![tagaytay tourist spots without entrance fee People's Park in the Sky](https://www.philippinebeaches.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Peoples-Park-in-the-Sky.jpg)
Ngayon, ang unfinished structure ay naging urban park at view deck, overlooking sa lush greenery at lowland. Meron din dito na maliit na chapel, garden, mga souvenir shops, at food stalls. Honestly, kailangan ng lugar ng upkeep at improvement. Pero breathtaking pa rin naman ang views mula rito.

Fantasy World
Mula sa malayo, nakakaintriga talaga ang malaking medieval castle na ito. Ang original goal para sa Fantasy World ay mala Disneyland na theme park, pero after ilang years at sa maraming dahilan, hindi na ito natuloy. Sa halip, naging photo spot na lang ito na perfect para sa mga mahilig sa fairy tales o grim aesthetics (depende sa iyong perspective).
![tagaytay tourist spots without entrance fee Fantasy World](https://www.philippinebeaches.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Fantasy-World.jpg)
Hindi na gumagana ang mga rides pero ang buong lugar ay picture-worthy. Siguro ito ang charm ng lugar. In fact, hindi lang curious visitors ang na-attract nito kundi pati na rin TV and film productions. Naging filming location ito ng mga movie tulad ng Fantastica at Got 2 Believe at ang TV show ng GMA 7 na Majika. Isa rin ito sa mga paboritong prenup shooting locations. Ang highlight ng park ay ang castle kung saan puwede kang umakyat sa taas ng main tower at makakita ng magandang view ng park at ng paligid.
