This is a tour for people who really love nature or eco-tourism. We bring you to the beautiful landscape of the southern part of the island of Luzon.

We drive from Angeles City (or previous travel module) to the beautiful Lake Laguna, from here we travel to Lucena and into the Bicol Region. We stay the night in Gumaga.

We leave the next morning to the province of Sorsogon. We drive through the beautiful landscape passing Mount Mayon to the southern part of Bicol. We stay in Donsol, “The Whale Shark Capital City Of The World".

From October until May you can swim in Donsol with the biggest fish in the world, the gentle giants of the sea the Whale Sharks and also with many dolphins. The Wale Shark can reach a length of 19 meters. With cooperation from The World Wild Life Fund they organize here Butanding Inter Actions Tours. Butanding is the local name of the Whale Shark. Every year there is a Butanding festival.

By boat we watch these giants of the sea or even swim with them. This is “The Ultimate Wild Life Encounter” the only place in the world where this is possible. Our hotel is directly on the sea with a beautiful view over the Sorsogon Bay. From here you can watch spectacular sunsets.

From the beautiful area of Donsol we leave to Bulusan. We go to Barcelona and bring a visit to the historic old church. Because of its landscape the area is called here "The Little Switzerland of Asia".

We stay overnight in a private villa beach resort on the beach of the Pacific Ocean. We have a private cook who takes good care of us and we enjoy the local dishes.

We visit the volcano Bulusan. At 800 meters lies Lake Bulusan. We make an 2 hours adventurer walk around the lake. Here you see giant mushrooms and a exceptional flora and fauna. The sceneries here are breathtaking beautiful.

After breakfast, we leave for Legaspi. In the background his majestic pyramid formed volcano, Mount Mayon. This volcano is still active. We visit the ruins of Cagsawa. The volcano outbreak of 1 February 1814 destroyed this town and it disappeared nearly completely under the lava. From the on a hill in Barock style build Franciscan church is only a part of the bell tower still above the ground. The rest of the church disappeared under the lava stream.

After lunch we leave for Lake Buhi. This lake is known as an unique place in the world with the smallest commercial fish. We visit the local market of Nag and here we stay overnight.
