It has been drizzling for the past few days and we we are definitely at the end tail of summer but nothing can stop our pure love for travelling with our family and friends. However, sometimes things get in the way of planning like applying for vacation leaves, scheduling flights or bus routes, and most especially, budget. This list would like to help you plan your trip during the remaining summer month with options of doing a day trip, a weekender, or maybe spending some nights in a nice town outside the city bringing along the perfect baon for everyone in the family or your barkada.
The Day Tripper
We understand the struggle of scheduling a trip when some can only take a day off. So why not beat the heat chasing waterfalls in Pagsanjan, Laguna? The Pagsanjan Falls is one of the most popular falls in the Philippines and is very near Manila. With a travelling time of two hours from Manila, you can board a small boat and enjoy watching the bangkeros make their way to the falls, conquering rapids and rocky stream.
While being in awe looking at the majestic falls, serve a quick fix for everyone on the trip with some crackers and a can of Mega Tuna Spanish Style! It is made from 100% tuna so you can make sure that you are getting the benefits from tuna like Omega 3, protein, and B-vitamins.
The Weekender
Some of us are lucky to have weekends off and there is no doubt that maximizing it during the summer is the best way to spend days off from work or school or dance lessons.
Pack your bags and head off up north on a Saturday and visit Minalungao National Park in Nueva Ecija. Limestone formations can be seen by foot or on a bamboo raft along the Penaranda River.
If the waves are calling, head to to Zambales and take a siesta in a hammock under hundreds of agoho trees. Enjoy ashen sands of Anawangin and Nagsasa Cove with the barkada for some ultimate camping experience.
On the way up north, the gang will surely get hungry on the road. Bring out the bread and a can of Mega Tuna Flakes in Oil or Hot and Spicy for the daredevils! Because it comes in an easy-to-open can, you can have a mini picnic inside the van! For family members or friends who are health enthusiasts, they don't have to worry for they can be sure that they are savoring the true taste of tuna, because all Mega Tuna variants are made from 100% tuna with no extenders, no preservatives, and no MSG, making them 100% delicious.
More Days, Mega Fun
If your family has some days to spare for your trip, file your leaves and brush up on some history as you walk along the cobblestone street of Calle Crisologo in Vigan, Ilocos Sur. You can also visit Syquia Mansion where the former President Elpidio Quirino used to live. The mansion’s beauty can be seen through its wood carvings of pageboys and country lasses and its antique furnitures will surely bring back the yesteryears. For the youngsters, a trip to Baluarte would be a great idea. It is a zoo owned by a former governor of Ilocos Sur.
After a day filled with lots of historical tours, end the day with an easy but nice dinner with flair. Since Ilocos Sur is one of the few remaining intact Hispanic towns in the country, pass around some tortillas and Mega Tuna Sweet and Spicy! So yummy! With Mega Tuna, you can be sure that only the right ingredients are being used because it does not utilize Textured Vegetable Protein (TVP) or commonly known as "extenders". Hence, you get what is being promised, the delicious taste of true tuna.
Wherever you go this summer, be it a daytrip or a week-long vacation with your family or friends, the most important is that you will have a Mega trip filled with 100% pure love and fun!
If you’re up for solo travelling, Mega Tuna has come up with 155g Flakes in Oil and Hot and Spicy that is easier to pack and lighter to carry in you travel bag!
