Planning your next North Luzon Getaway? Here is a list of tips and recommended local destinations that you might want to consider.
The summer heat is here, and we are all looking for a cool and breezy recluse. The question is, where to next?
Composed of more than 7,000 islands, the Philippines has a lot to offer when it comes to various summer destinations. That means we have a surplus of coastlines, and Filipinos are naturally drawn to spending time in the waters.
Beaches, mountain falls, lagoons, lakes, or resorts—wherever they may be, you’ll see a family gathered together for a vacation during summer. Furthermore, we use these times as an opportunity to take a break from the buzzing city. For some, it is also a time to reunite with relatives or friends.
But admit it or not, sometimes planning for a getaway could get a little bit messy and complicated. In addition, decision-making gets harder when you have a lot of various ideas on how you want to spend it. But fret not because here’s a list of things to plan a smooth trip up north this summer.
Allocate your budget.
The most important thing before going on a trip is your sufficient budget. First, decide how much you would need to spend on that getaway, whether at home or away. Remember that incurring debt is not the right way to finance your vacation.
Once you have set aside a budget, work around it and select a place that works within your specified amount. For places up north, you can check the Melting Pot Resort in Sitio Molave, San Isidro, Tarlac City. This resort offers cottages for day tours, villa rooms, and mansion houses for longer stays.
