If there is a list of the “Seven Wonders of the Philippines”, Taal Volcano will definitely be on it. Why wouldn’t it be? It’s known across the globe because it’s the smallest volcano in the world!
Get away from the city for a few days and become one with nature. Upon reaching the mouth of the crater, you’d surely appreciate the breathtaking views of the lake and the surrounding towns and cities. It’s still among the top tourist destinations in the country that every Filipino must visit.

There three main attractions: the Binintiang Malaki, Mount Tabaro, and Binitiang Munti. The Binintiang Malaki is the bigger cone which can be perfectly viewed from Tagaytay ridge. Meanwhile, the Binintiang Munti is the smaller cone on the westernmost tip of the volcano island. Last is Mount Tabaro, the cone where the magma of the previous eruption (1965-1977) can be seen.
Go on a journey with your friends or family and trek the Taal Volcano crater. There are tour guides to lead you on your trip at specific rates. We advise you to visit during the dry season which is from October to May.
