The Best Of The Philippines – Siquijor Itinerary

September 4, 2019 By Jimmy Huss 6 Comments

The island of Siquijor has a mysterious other-world charm that lures a huge influx of tourists every year. For a long time, this small island has been popular for its mountain-dwelling mangkukulam ( a person who performs the ancient folk magic – kulam). These healers make ointments through traditional methods to cure modern ailments. Don’t worry you are completely safe traveling this slice of paradise. In today’s time, the Siquijor itinerary is popular for its pristine nature, gorgeous shorelines, beguiling waterfalls, beaut nature, and enticing attractions. Besides, Siquijor also gives an opportunity to explore the beautiful natural caves and walk down the mesmerizing trails of the forest. Despite being a small island, a day or two is not enough to explore this popular tourist place in Philipinnes. Hence, it is recommended to spare at least 3 or 4 days for a Siquijor tour on your Philippines vacation.
