Your trip starts with a scenic drive from your hotel in Manila to Hidden Valley Springs in Alaminos, Laguna. The valley is between the beautiful mountains of Mt. Makiling and Mt. Banahaw. It has a large 110-acre crater created by a volcanic eruption long ago. As you explore, you'll see many different plants and rare orchids. The resort has several warm volcanic water pools where you can swim. Around noon, you'll enjoy a tasty Filipino buffet lunch before continuing to explore.
