Great experience !!
This is an optimal visit if you have any desire to escape Manila and see a more country part of the Philippines. The actual climb is very simple and really great for a fledgling in spite of the fact that there are a few sections that are a piece steep. This isn't so terrible in itself, Generally, the perspectives from the top are delightful, and it is certainly a visit I suggest doing.

Beware, you might be greatly disapointed
The climb itself was good, but the guide i had (joannah) was more into self serving herself and the her trainees than to even once cater to the paying customer which was me. She was great on a previous tour, but not so on this tour. Only difference we had two more guides in training. So be careful booking, you wont know the treatment you get. The driver was a complete , cant say it. He drove like a complete maniac so he could feed his face at jollibee. I just had teeth extractions, all i wanted was mashed pototoes , only thing i could really eat. But no , they said there wasnt a kfc close, 5 blocks away. I know jollibee is popular for customers. But beware, booking with this clownshow, then catering or even trying to please their customers. Greatly disappointing

Easy Hike and Worthwile
This is an ideal tour if you want to get out of Manila and see a more rural part of the Philippines. The hike itself is quite easy and good for a beginner although there are some parts that are a bit steep. This is not so bad in itself, but it can be muddy, so it can be slippery (be prepared for pants to get muddy). Overall, the views from the top are beautiful, and it is definitely a tour I recommend doing.
via Tripadvisor
Great Hike!!
The experience in that country is worthwhile and I Hope to comeback to the Philippines soon for more hikes. see you soon, I will definitely book you again!

Mt. Batolusong and Kay Ibon Falls Day Trip from Manila: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Manila.
How much does Mt. Batolusong and Kay Ibon Falls Day Trip from Manila cost?
+
Prices start at $130 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Manila usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Mt. Batolusong and Kay Ibon Falls Day Trip from Manila take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Manila is not rushed.
Is Mt. Batolusong and Kay Ibon Falls Day Trip from Manila worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 48 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable outdoors in Manila, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Mt. Batolusong and Kay Ibon Falls Day Trip from Manila?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Mt. Batolusong and Kay Ibon Falls Day Trip from Manila suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Mt. Batolusong and Kay Ibon Falls Day Trip from Manila?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Manila can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Manila and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Mt. Batolusong and Kay Ibon Falls Day Trip from Manila start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Manila within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Manila?
+
On Outty we rank every Manila experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Manila Food Tour: Introduction to Philippine Street Food, Experience Intramuros with Bamboo Bicycle - Ecotours, Spectacular Manila to Tagaytay: Full-Day Sightseeing Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Manila?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Manila?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
