Baguio City Highland Tour — Philippines' Summer Capital
About this tour
Baguio City at 1,500m is the Philippines' escape from the lowland heat — pine trees instead of palms, sweaters instead of board shorts, strawberry jam instead of mango. The city is chaotic but charming, with a thriving arts scene, excellent highland food and a distinctive atmosphere utterly unlike any other Philippine city.
The tour covers: Burnham Park (the city center park, boat rides on the lake, rose garden), Camp John Hay (the former US military recreation base, now a pine forest park with colonial-era architecture and good restaurants), Mines View Park (overlooks the old gold and copper mine of Benguet — backdrop for the iconic "person in full Igorot warrior costume" photos), and the Baguio Market for strawberry jam, ube jam and Baguio vegetables.
