I posted in 2011 that I wanted to finish this Viaje Del Sol list or at least visit most of the places listed on the map. Viaje Del Sol means “the way of the sun”. A map has a list of places that you can visit in Batangas, Laguna and Quezon. Viaje del Sol is like having an educational tour because you will learn more about food, art and cultures. Not only that, you can also relax and stay in different bed and breakfast.

We used to visit my grandmother in Victoria, Laguna every month and during our trip, we try to visit the places in Viaje del Sol map if we have extra time. But it’s been two years since our last visit in Victoria because my grandmother already moved to my aunt house.
Natigil na yung Viaje del Sol trip namin. There are more places that I wanted to visit in Laguna, Batangas and Quezon but for now, let me share the places that we have visited so far.
Arabela Restaurant
Arabela is the famous restaurant in Liliw, Laguna so if ever you will buy affordable slippers, shoes and other products in Liliw, don’t forget to try this restaurant. They serve pizza, pasta and salad.

Villa Escudero
If you are looking for a place where to relax and unwind, I can recommend Villa Escudero. It is near in Metro Manila so having a day trip is not a problem. This is good for family trip. We have visited the place twice, check my review below.

Lake Pandin
Lake Pandin is also a nice place if you only have a day to relax. You will ride in bamboo raft, you can swim in the lake, drink coconut juice and have a feast if you avail their food package.

Cafe Lago
Cafe Lago is a small restaurant near Sampaloc Lake. Parking is very limited, good thing we had an early lunch here so may nakuha pa kami na parking slot.

Casa San Pablo
Casa San Pablo is a bed and breakfast in Laguna. You can choose day trip package or overnight package. My family chose day trip package, this includes room, food and use of amenities.

Sitio De Amor
Sitio de Amor is another bed and breakfast in Laguna. If you don’t want to avail overnight or day trip package, you can still visit the place if you just want to eat but be sure to make reservation. For day trippers, you can rent a room for 50%. our family stayed in their tree house.

I still have more places that I want to visit. I hope I can add more on this list.
Villa Escudero is just superb! That building is magnifique!
ReplyDeleteWow, dami mo na din napuntahan. Its really great to explore the Philippines. Each place has its own beauty
ReplyDeleteSo far Villa Escudero palang ang napuntahan ko. But I'll make an effort to do that do. Thanks Mommy!
ReplyDeleteIt's so nice to explore places in the country! Pardon me for being ignorant, but what exactly is this tour for?
ReplyDeleteI think Batangas, Laguna and Quezon wanted to promote their tourist spots. I just notice that when we visited one place, they will ask if we have visited this and this. So they are promoting other place na part ng Viaje Del Sol. :)
DeleteWe did Viaje ded Sol couple of years back and we want to do ot again next time.
ReplyDeleteSitio del Sol looks beautiful! This is the first time I've hears of Viaje del Sol! Will check it out. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThis is very interesting! Like Jhanis this the first time I've come across this. My husband and I have been looking to do some travelling, you just gave me an idea! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteSo far I've visited Villa Escudero and Lake Pandin.Hoping I could also visit everything in that map.
ReplyDeleteThat is one interesting way to travel! Would there be guides to tell you information and stories about the places on the map?
ReplyDeleteThere's no tour guide. :(
