  • Quite expensive considering you lot tin post away instruct the same tour from the tourism component for a slightly cheaper price, but I took it anyways since I could only pass one-half a twenty-four hours here, addition they offered to assist organize my onward transfer to Sagada afterward that afternoon
  • Doing a one-half twenty-four hours tour of Batad too travelling to Sagada on the same twenty-four hours is doable but tight. For this conception to work, it's of import that you lot furnish to Banaue before 2pm. There are 2 reasons for this.
