      Tagaytay is a popular destination of residents of Metro Manila primarily because of its mild climate and dramatic scenery, the most significant of which is the view of Taal Volcano.

      The weather in Tagaytay is mild and the average temperature is 22-25°C (71-77°F). There are only two 'seasons', wet and dry.
    • filter_dramaGet in
      • By plane

        The closest major airport is Ninoy Aquino International Airport (Manila).

      • By Car

        If you're a foreigner, you can hire vans to get there or an airport taxi. Some taxi drivers charge a fixed rate or double the meter fare plus toll fees.

      • By bus

        Coming from Manila by bus

        Information taken from "Tagaytay blog" - More details can be found here [http://taaltagaytay.blogspot.com/2012/04/tagaytay-and-taal-volcano-trek.html].

        Take one of the following buses from the Cubao bus terminus (in order of priority and frequency) -
        # San Agustin
        # Erjohn & Almark
        # Golden dragon

        The buses go to Nusugbu (final destination), but have “via Tagaytay” written on the signboard next to the driver. Frequency = one bus every about 30 minutes.

        Travel time = close to 3 hours even when setting off early.

        Disembark at a crossroad called Olivarez square (now shown on google maps). Easily spotted due to the large KFC restaurant / Andok's / Jollibee (if you are on the right side of the bus) and “Pure Gold” and Mc Donalds” signs if you are on the left side of the bus. After this stop lies the Rotunda (with a statue in the center and colourful lights at night) - this forms the center of the town of Tagaytay.

        Tagaytay does not have a dedicated bus terminus - buses just stop at this part of the road. Ask the bus conductor to tell you when the stop for "Tagaytay" or "Olivarez plaza" comes.

        Avoid taking buses going to Batangas or Balibago. Avoid JAM transit.

    • filter_dramaGet around
      • Jeepney

        Jeepney is a common use of transportation around the area, you'll need to ask the driver where you want to go and where they are going. Fares are usually around 8-10 pesos, sometimes a little bit more depending on the distance.

      • Tricycle

        Tricycles (motorcycles with a sidecar) are also quite prevalent and will often offer rides to foreigners, sometimes very insistently. They can take you anywhere, but the pricing scheme is complicated. For 3+ people on a tricycle, the rate is 20 pesos each for a short distance. For 1-2 people, the rate is 100 pesos total for most trips. A tricycle trip down to Taal can be negotiated for around 200 pesos.

      • Walking

        At the Tagaytay visitor's centre and near the zip line is quite easy to walk and explore for a person with average fitness.

      *The Taal volcano is an active volcano with a large crater lake with a small cone rising in the middle. Tagatay is built on the rim of the larger crater.

      There is a park at the overlook area above the Taal volcano. Worth the effort! About an hour from Manila, it is accessible by taxi, bus or privately owned vehicle. You can take a Jeepney to the Olivarez, then take a tricycle to the lake and hire a boat. It's also possible to negotiate with the tricycle driver "full package" including tricycle, boat, and horse on the volcano - everything depends on your negotiation skills.

      The park is well kept and there are numerous picnic seats, tables or covered huts for daily hire.

      • Taal Volcano

        You can take a 15 min outrigger boat ride to the volcano that is within the lake. As you head from Tagaytay city toward the lake, many touts may jump in front of your vehicle offering boat rides - they take a commission. If you know where to go, however, you can catch a boat directly from the boat owners. You will need to catch private transport of some kind down to the lake from Tagatay as there is no jeepney service there. If you take a motorbike or trike, you are recommended to lock in a fee for both directions at the top (including waiting time). If not, once you are down there, you are caught with requests for more than double the fee to get back up to Tagatay for the return journey. Many operators will try and offer all inclusive deals to the volcano, including the horse ride, lunch, etc. You are better to negotiate just the boat trip and then choose what you want to do on the island.

        Once on the island, the boat guides will herd you to a point where you can go horseback riding to the volcano. It takes about 30-45 minutes and is quite bumpy. The guides with the horses take you to the top which is very spectacular and you can explore the top for as long as you want.

        Another option is hiking which will take anywhere from 50 minutes to 90 minutes, so only do so if you have reasonable fitness (because of the hills, rocky terrain, etc).

        When up at the volcano, watch out for guides trying to show groups of tourists heating tricks. These consist of getting a can of soft drink or water, cutting the can or bottle in half and watching the ground heat boil the water or liquid which is pretty cool to see, and you can boil an egg if you bring one with you!

      Small shops line the roadway as you come into the area, the vegetables and fruits available here are fresh and seemed to be very good quality.

      Pasalubong (small gifts) gathered by the traveller in remembrance of, and for, friends is a strong Philippine tradition. No need to be extravagant, a small gift is considered to be most appropriate. Need help? Here's a hint... senorita bananas. About the size of a fat finger, they are sweet and have a rich texture. The area is also famous for its Buko Pie, which is a popular item.

      There is also the Good Shepherd Convent (like the one in Baguio) and you can get your favorite Ube jam, pili, etc. In addition to that you can also get their buko pie for which Laguna/Cavite is known.

    • filter_dramaStay Safe
      Tagaytay is a safe place to visit, and the locals are very nice, just beware of the usual things in Tagaytay such as scammers and pickpockets; in short exercise the usual level of common sense when travelling.

      Beware of the obvious scams and ensure that if you are visiting Taal volcano or any other attractions with guides that they have the proper identification usually administered by the Philippine Tourist Board.

      As with all tourist destinations, they like to "plus plus" everything, that is add the taxes and the tourist fee on later, so make sure that you ask for the complete price inclusive of tourist fee. It is recommended that if you visit Taal Volcano and you go horseback riding, that you demand to pay your guide a tip and forego paying 500 pesos as a tour guide fee at the ticket office as this ensures that your working guide actually gets paid as they get undercut from the ticket office; a tip of 200 pesos usually suffices.
