Tagaytay City is considered as one of the popular philippine tourist spots. It is also called little Baguio due to its cool weather conditions even in the middle of summer. It is one of the favorite destinations for city dwellers to relieve themselves from the sweltering heat of the summer.


1. Accessible

Indeed, not only is Tagaytay sought after because of this cool climate but also because of it's accessibility. It may be reached either way from Aguinaldo Highway or by taking the SLEX route.

I have been to Tagaytay a number of times and prefer taking the SLEX and Santa Rosa Exit. On normal traffic, it takes an hour to get there.

2. A Host of Activities

Tagaytay is ideal both for couples and families. There are many activities that can be engaged in while there. You can go sight-seeing, horseback riding, playing golf, relaxation through a spa, and many others.

3. A Romantic place
The cool weather in Tagaytay makes it the perfect place for couples who want to experience a beautiful private time. Indeed, it is one of the top choices for honeymoons and weddings. It's beautiful landscapes and sceneries had made it a great choice for wedding photographers.

4. Great and Affordable Accommodations

Tagaytay is home to the Highlands and other equally famous developments in the area. Nevertheless, it is also home to countless affordable accommodations perfect for those on a shoestring budget. Just be patient in looking for those special places online. One of them is Keni Po.

5. Heart-warming Food

Tagaytay is famous for its beef stew locally known as 'Bulalo'. One should not miss this delicacy while in Tagaytay. It is also known for its fresh produce, so don't miss out on buying those in season fruits available by the roadside.
