Fantastic 5.0

It was a quick visit, but we had enough time to admire the landscapes properly. One activity wasn't available, so another was offered to us. Our guide was very kind! Just make sure to have some cash, because you have to pay the entrance fee (20 pesos) to visit the Cocoys Food Garden.

Fantastic 5.0

Worth it! I really enjoyed the experience! I usually don't engage in outdoorsy activities like this but I had to try since it's my 1st time in Bicol. I went around 7am to avoid the summer heat. And Mayon is usually clear during the early morning. The staff who welcomed me was kind and accommodating. My guide, Jess, was chill and was always looking out for me since I was just by myself, there were no other joiners that time, good for me. yay! I wanted to take more pics and he was accommodating. I have so many pics and vids! Highly recommended!

Great 4.0

it was a good experience. The passway from the reg booth to zipline is a bit tiring. Wear a good footwear.
