A combo of exciting and relaxing - no regrets
The trip was absolutely amazing, and my guide Carlo was very considerate and friendly. I was a solo female traveler on this tour, and I felt completely safe and comfortable at all times. After around a 2-hour drive, you arrive at a station where you’re provided with a life vest and a helmet, and your 1-hour canoe trip up the Pagsanjan River begins. You can leave all your belongings in the car and wear clothes you’re happy to get completely soaking wet (I wore my swimsuit and sports shorts, which I didn’t mind getting wet). I only took my phone in a waterproof case, as there’s a high chance your phone will get very wet otherwise. I also kept some cash in the same case. About halfway up the river, there’s a short stop for snacks, where they ask you to buy lunch for the two canoe men. Chicken and soda for both of them cost 400 pesos. If you’d like chicken and a drink for yourself too, bring another 200 pesos. If you’re happy to tip, I’d also recommend bringing around another 400 pesos for the two guys operating the final barge to the waterfall (they’re different from the canoe men). After about 1 hour on the river—which is pretty strenuous for the canoe men—you arrive at a small landing, from where you take a barge underneath the waterfall. Up until then you might have stayed almost completely dry, but after going under the waterfall you’ll be absolutely soaking wet. The way back is easy. I tipped the canoe men well at the end because the journey upstream is really hard work. By the way, I saw some kids around 7 years old in other canoes, so this trip might be suitable for children of that age—but only if they’re relatively brave and very comfortable with water splashing over their faces. :) The hot springs were great and very relaxing, and lunch was good. I was told the walk to the Hidden Falls takes at least 10 minutes each way, so I decided not to go and instead preferred to soak in the warm pools. No towel is provided, so bring your own. There are also secure lockers in the hot spring complex.

Must do experience
Wow. What an amazing experience!! Carlo was my guide and driver and he was super cool, personable, funny, knowledgeable, and nice. He made sure I was well taken care of, the car was comfortable, and overall it was an amazing time. This is a must do experience when visiting Manila. The falls are absolutely beautiful and the canoeing experience to get there is unique and wild. So much fun. And then the hot springs after is the perfect way to unwind after a day at the falls and is a close drive from the falls. Bring a change of clothes, some water and snacks. Bring sunblock and a towel. You can leave your stuff in the car or in a locker once u get to the location. Bring cash for the falls as you can buy drinks and food on the way up. Carlo is a great driver and a good person. The hot springs are a site to see and very relaxing and one of a kind.

Private Adventure to Pagsanjan Falls & Hidden Valley Springs with Carlo
My private tour to Pagsanjan Falls and Hidden Valley Springs was one of the highlights of my trip to the Philippines. The canoe ride to Pagsanjan Falls was both thrilling and scenic, surrounded by lush jungle, and the waterfall itself was truly breathtaking. Hidden Valley Springs was the perfect place to relax afterward, with peaceful hot springs set in the middle of a tropical rainforest. A special mention to my guide, Carlo, who made the experience even better. He was professional, friendly, and made everything smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. A perfect mix of adventure and relaxation—highly recommended.

Book it with Carlo!!!
I sent this to YOLO email I never thought I’d ever book a private tour and when I did I never thought I’d really be the only person on the tour. In my experience booking a small group private tour meant myself and a handful of others would be on the tour but alas the tour was just me booked in viator but hosted by Carlo from yolo. This tour was for sure a splurge for me but “when in rome”… I just couldn’t find a join in tour and after my 17 hours flight from NYC I wanted to get out of Manila proper and explore the country side and that I did with an amazing and very well worth it guide named Carlo! If you book the Pagsanjan Falls & Hidden Valley Springs: A Spectacular Combo please request Carlo. He is a world traveler with a wealth of knowledge. He is engaging, very accommodating and funny. You will have no regrets and have felt you have gotten well worth your money! The experience at the falls is exhilarating and the springs are magical! A full day of not to be missed experiences!

Pagsanjan Falls & Hidden Valley Springs: A Spectacular Combo Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Manila.
How much does Pagsanjan Falls & Hidden Valley Springs: A Spectacular Combo Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $240 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 Pagsanjan Falls & Hidden Valley Springs: A Spectacular Combo Tour take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Pagsanjan Falls & Hidden Valley Springs: A Spectacular Combo Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 29 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Manila, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Pagsanjan Falls & Hidden Valley Springs: A Spectacular Combo Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Pagsanjan Falls & Hidden Valley Springs: A Spectacular Combo Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Pagsanjan Falls & Hidden Valley Springs: A Spectacular Combo Tour?
+
Around 10 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Pagsanjan Falls & Hidden Valley Springs: A Spectacular Combo Tour 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.

+
Included: All Fees and Taxes. Not included: tips. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Pagsanjan Falls & Hidden Valley Springs: A Spectacular Combo Tour include hotel pickup?

What languages is Pagsanjan Falls & Hidden Valley Springs: A Spectacular Combo Tour offered in?
+
