Luggage and bags: If you fly up there the baggage limit is 10kg (for check in) and hand held is 3kg

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Warm clothes as Baguio is up in the mountains and it does get chilly up there.
Also take wet weather gear with you or at least an umbrella - don't think you will beat the rain because you won't...
A good pair of walking shoes is a must too...

Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Take the minimum as you can get everything there and fairly cheaply.

Photo Equipment: Definately take a camera, digital prefered but film is ok and there are plenty of places to get that film developed...

Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: Forget it

Things to bring
JaneCajuguiran profile photo
JaneCajuguiran 241 reviews

Luggage and bags: Travel light.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: If you come from a cold place, baguio won't be too cold for you. But if you're like me, who comes from a tropical country, then definitely cold during the "ber" months until about mid feb. But after that, a light jacket will do during the nighttime. pants and tees are the best things to bring except when you want to go swimming in asin (a hot spring) or have dinner at a fancy resto.

Toiletries and Medical Supplies: almost everything you'll need is available at the local grocery.

Photo Equipment: pack your digicam and videocam. They'll come in handy for storing memories which you'll have plenty of in baguio. There are places that are still breathtaking.

Miscellaneous: A good mosquito repellant and a sunblock will give you a lot of protection from all the exploring you'll be doing.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Do keep cool by wearing the sensible clothing and fabrics the Filipinos have developed to deal with the heat and humidity. For men, the barong tagalog, or long-sleeved shirt, worn untucked, will get you through even the most formal occasions. The short-sleeved style, the polo barong, is even cooler...Do expect to be engaged in conversation in social situations—silence may be interpreted as discomfort or dislike
