Ifugao refers to both the region and its people, renowned for the breathtaking Banaue rice terraces, which are distinguished by their size and beauty compared to other terraced fields worldwide. However, many are unaware that the splendor of Ifugao province goes well beyond Banaue. This journey takes us deep into the Ifugao area, exploring locations that are often overlooked by tourists. We hike through picturesque landscapes of mountains, rice terraces, and forests, pausing to visit local communities along the way. By spending a night in a village, we engage with the intriguing Ifugao people and gain a profound appreciation for their culture.

Note: The price of $270 per person is for a party of two or more booking together. The price for a solo traveler is $370 and he/she will not share a room.

Tour provider's comments

Hikes will take at least about 5 hours per day for 2 days. You will need to carry an overnight backpack with your clothes, trail water and snacks. Most of the trails will be winding up and down mountains and can get slippery when it rains. Sections of the trail are on top of rice terrace walls that are less than 2 feet wide.
