wabufamy Says: Lignon Hill gives you a 360degree view of Legaspi City, which includes, of course Mayon Volcano . The tricycle we rented was only allowed up to the gate at the bottom of the hill. So it was a 45-minute trek for us, which includes a few minutes of rest in between. Going up,...
wabufamy Says: Good food, good view. It's modern Legaspi. This commercial center located at the Legaspi Harbor. We weren't able to enjoy all that it could offer since we only passed there to eat, but they have a variety of activities to keep you busy. There's a 350-meter zipline from a...
wabufamy Says: The Cagsawa Church, built around 1724, was buried when Mayon Volcano erupted in 1814. The bell tower is the most preserved part of the church. The remaining walls of the church can give you an idea on how big it was, and its basic structure. Looking around the vicinity,...
Our Lady of the Gate Parish Church
Martialsk Says: The Church was built in 1773 by Franciscan missionaries at the time when Daraga was still part of Cagsawa. Technically, the style is Baroque but there's also a bit of renaissance Gothic in there too and it's famous because it's the only one of its kind in the world built...
Martialsk Says: A must do if staying in Legaspi, Ligñon Hill is well worth the visit. It is one of the best places to see Mt Mayon in all its glory along with beautiful 360degree views of the entire region. The 143m high cinder-cone hill is located 11km southeast of the volcano and is the...
Martialsk Says: This cute little waterfall is tucked away in the forested foothills of Mt Mayon near the little town of Malilipot. We had just finished a trek through the Mayon foothills so we were shattered already and just needed to rest somewhere cool and refreshing! The entry fee was...
Martialsk Says: We found out about these caves through local knowledge. Located in the village of Cotmon in Camalig (not far from Daraga), it is about 30mins drive from Legaspi. On the drive we stopped numerous times to ask for directions as sign-posting around here isn't great!The Caves...
Martialsk Says: These ruins are the remnants of a Franciscan church built in 1724 during the Hispanic occupation, which was later destroyed by a violent volcanic eruption in Feb 1814. They are considered a symbol reflecting the dangers of living near an enormous, active volcano and are one...
A day out on a fishing boat...
Martialsk Says: Thanks to the suggestion made by our friends who live here, we were able to hire a local fishing boat to take us to the coral reefs in the Albay Gulf for a spot of snorkelling.The boat resembled a catamaran and must have been about 35 foot long. This was a working boat...
Hotel La Trinidad: Out of the pages of Psycho
eversure Says: The hotel has obviously seen better days. One of the casualties of the shift of the city center. It used to in the middle of downtown. But with the new mall, commercial traffic has shifted. The elevator is creaky, the hallways are very dimly lit with old carpeting screaming...
Legaspi Airport Hotel: All You Can Eat!
wabufamy Says: Conveniently located at the Legaspi Airport Compound, the restaurant is a food haven for travellers who fly in and out of the city. Their Breakfast Buffet cost P149.00 while Lunch Buffet cost P199.00. We were only able to try the Lunch Buffet which had mostly Filipino food...
wabufamy Says: We initially thought that the diner was an American franchise. On the contrary, it was a Bicol homegrown restaurant which started decades ago. The meals are, however, world class (as a diner, of course). Their menu is typical American fastfood, with burgers, chicken and baby...
Smoke and Grill Resto Bar: Crispy Pata!!!
trazepam Says: Food that reminds you of typical Bicolano home cooked meals! A local hang out after work or after a tennis match at the RES. Week-end place for a get-together! Has pleasing waitresses, great service and great value for money! Sizzling sisig, spicy cheese sticks, sizzling...
Tricycles, Jeepneys & mini-buses
Martialsk Says: Tricycles are perfect for getting around town or even slightly out of town and they are pretty cheap. Three of us managed to get on one - one behind the driver and 2 crammed into the seat! Be warned - the seats are designed for slim Filipino people...! Therefore, it can be a...
chick_traveller Says: For travellers who wants to go around Legaspi it is better to hire a tricycle or ride a jeepney. They can take you to any of choice your destination.
thermopilas Says: The aircon on the bus going back to Manila from Legazpi was very strong. I was wearing shorts and did not have a jacket. Wearing only a shirt. I used my backpack to shield myself from the AC. But it was not that helpful, I think I was numb after the ten hour trip. Thank...
Weird custom at the baggage claim area
eversure Says: When you get to Legaspi their arrival area is a small section of the airport half of which is where the checked in luggages are dropped. They cordon the area and don't allow passengers to pick up their own luggages, no matter how small. If you're not in a hurry, just wait....
Martialsk Says: Enlisting the help of a local guide, which is very important for your own safety, we embarked on a trek of the lower foothills of Mt Mayon. Taking a round trip of around 3.5hrs, we walked along narrow paths cut into thick forest before coming out in clearings where we'd take...

Q: We'll be backpacking to Legaspi City on our way to Donsol, and want to see Lignon Hills, the Japanese Tunnel and Cagsawa Ruins....
A: Lignon hill is around a 30 minute strenuous climb, but it is well worth it especially if you get up there for sunrise to see the wonderful view of Mayon. It is also worth...

This little piece of the Philippines ended up on the itinerary thanks to our friend that we were travelling with and her uncles, who are resident here. They live in a lovely home on the edge of...

The family went to Legaspi City recently so my kids could see Mayon volcano. I've never seen it myself and when I first saw it, the view really took my breath away. Perfect! Too bad there's a lack of...

When flying to Bicol, I believe the best first stop would be Legaspi City in Albay. You'd know you're in Bicol when you see the Mayon Volcano upon descent to the airport. Legaspi is the ideal homebase...

I took this picture at the airport in Legazpi. I was only in Legazpi for a day, and as it turned out, this was the only shot I was able to take of the volcano. For the rest of the day, clouds covered...

Legazpi City is famous for it's majestic and world-renowed Mayon Volcano. I've been to Mayon Volcano many times. I was even lucky to see the beauty of it before the 2006 eruption. Last year, me and......
