My Baguio Travel Itinerary

I was rummaging through Baguio-related articles online so that I can finish our 3-day Itinerary. It was really quite difficult to plan when you are hardly familiar with the place. I’ve only been to the place once + it was ages ago. I do remember the places we visited but I am hard up on distinguishing which ones are close to which places + exactly how we can go there.

Anyway, after some research, here is what I came up with:

Day 1:

  • Arrival to Baguio
  • City Capitol + Post office 
  • SM to buy some items, including essentials for the little man
  • Hotel check-in {we are booked at Paladin’s Hotel + plans to see a bit of the city first before we check-in a 2pm}
  • Oh My Gulay Restaurant
  • Burnham Park
Day 2
  • Strawberry Farm
  • Bencab Museum + Cafe Sabel 
  • PMA
Day 3
  • Mines View Park
  • Good Shepherd Convent {to buy ube jam! weee!}
  • Wright Park
  • The Mansion
  • Mt. Cloud Bookshop
  • Pizza Volante
  • buy pasalubong
I will do a bit more research online once I am done reading about this boss rc 300 post, to add more to the list. Am sure we can also think of additional things to do once we got there! We’ve got one more day to go! Weee! 😉
