Batanes 4 Day Itinerary: Day 01 Northern Batan Island Tour


4 Day Itinerary overview: You arrive Day 01 morning; you leave Day 04 morning. You have no time to tour any place on your fourth day because SeaAir's flight out is usually around 7am.

We availed Pension Ivatan's 4Days-3nights Tour Package. Note that I am presenting you their itinerary as they offered it to us. Almost all of the items were re-ordered to suit us better. Our trip was pleasant, relaxing (save for the thrilling hikes), and full of surprises.

[Well recommended] tour guide: Romy Merida
