Three-Day Sagada Itinerary & List of Expenses

Some of the tourist destinations in Sagada ideal for a three-day tour itinerary.
Three days in Sagada may not be enough, but it is already good for a trip packed with lighter activities. Our very own itinerary for a suggested Sagada tour was not like the other lists because our trip was more of nature, food and culture appreciation. We were not limited to a time frame, and even though we did not do the Cave Connection and visited the other tourist spots like Bomod-ok and Pongas Falls, this one might still work for you.

Sagada All Saints Day: Burnt Pine Woods and Thick Black Smoke

Local Sagadans burn pine wood instead of candle to commemorate their dead loved ones on November 1.

November 1 is called the “All Saints Day” and Novemer 2 as the “All Souls Day”. We often commemorate our dead loved ones on November 1. We bring candles, lit them up and pray for them. Some people even bring food (the dead one’s favorite when he/she was still living) as their “atang” (offering). In other parts of the country, some even rejoice, bring their whole family to gather, eat food over the grave, and sing. But it’s a different event when you visit Sagada for this important day.

When They Call It Halo-Halo in Sagada

Sagada version of the popular Pinoy dessert halo-halo

One of the most irresistible Pinoy desserts is “halo-halo” (‘halo’ is a Tagalog word which means “mix”). Halo-Halo is a Pinoy authentic sweet course that is made out of shaved ice with different mixed ingredients like coconut, pearls, banana, sweet potato, jack fruit and the like. Hmm I was thinking of those fruits whenever I hear the word halo-halo, aside from the fact that it was indulged with sweets like leche flan, ice cream and ube jam, and then immersed in milk. Yummy.

Lemony Lunch @ Lemon Pie House in Sagada

Lemon pie slice in Lemon Pie House, Sagada
Enough of the red rice mania in Sagada, this time our very own tour to the Old Village where we saw a home weaving equipment and etag has prompted us to fill in again our stomach with lunch. We chose to eat inside the Lemon Pie House where we heard from other visitors that their lemon pies were just that irresistible. Hmmm. Sounds interesting, lemon pie for lunch, anyone?

A Visit to the Old Village of Sagada: Home Weaving and Etag

Sagada weaving in their respective homes in Sagada, Mt. Province.
Just like any other towns in the country, there is this single area in Sagada where civilization has flourished. This now what they call the “Old Village”, which is a series of old houses of local Sagadans, dap-ays, and some palay-isdaan. The Old Village is not a tourist spot, but if you want to see antique belongings of the people, their homes are not exception. Luckily, I was with a Sagadan friend who let me visit his grandmother’s house in Sagada where I saw the living legend of “Sagada weaving”, “etag” and Sagada version of kakanin.
