Some of the Baguio attractions ideal for a 2 days/1 night tour in Baguio.

Readers who are interested with Baguio itineraries have started sending me e-mails asking how to make a doable itinerary since last year. I answer them through e-mail but they suggest me to make a post about it. Since I live in Baguio and I know more about this place than any other cities in the country and I usually grant my readers’ simple wishes, here is a sample itinerary for two days and one night in Baguio.

A Jump Shot to Subic!

Jump, jump, jump to Subic!

After we visited and passed by the different attractions of Subic like the Boardwalk, eat in Hollys, see the bunkers and bats and monkeys, and finally feed the fish in Camayan, we ended the tour in Royal Duty Free. After we shopped for some pasalubong ala chocolate importado, we explored the other streets and ended up shopping in nearby Puregold Duty Free and the rest are photo ops and jump shots.

Subic Experience: Camayan Fish Feeding in Bigger Aquarium Called Sea

Camayan or Camayan Beach Resorts is a popular resort in Subic. It is adjacent to the more popular dolphin and sea lion show, the Ocean Adventure. It doesn’t feature white sand beach of any sort but if you want to have a Subic experience that is free, then visiting by the bay and fishing the colorful fish is a good choice.

Bunkers, Monkeys, Fruit Bats and that Orb in Subic

Bunkers are protective embankments or dugouts used in the Second World War. It is canopied with grasses and tree leaves so it cannot be easily seen by the opponents. When you get to tour in Subic, you will be able to witness these Second World War remnants. But other than these, Subic has a vast of tropical forests that until now is the home of many fruit bats and monkeys freely loitering around the woods. And we really saw them during our trip to Subic.
