The bucket-list things to do — and who runs each one.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, who runs it, and how to book it direct — so you can weigh it against your ship’s excursion and pick what suits you.
Step into 16th-century Spanish colonial Philippines along the cobblestoned Calle Crisologo, clip-clopping through Vigan's UNESCO World Heritage streets by private kalesa. One of Asia's best-preserved colonial towns — utterly bucket-list.
Marvel at the San Agustin Church of Paoay, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the Philippines' most dramatic baroque monuments, before exploring the storied capital of Ilocos Norte. A once-in-a-lifetime encounter with living Philippine history.
Taste your way through Ilocos Norte's ferociously distinct cuisine — bagnet, Ilocos empanada, pinakbet, and the region's celebrated vinegar and longganisa — woven through a heritage walking tour of historic Batac and local markets.
Board a traditional bangka boat from Salomague Port to the pristine islet just offshore — crystal-clear South China Sea waters, vibrant coral gardens, and a private beach that feels like your own. The most effortless bucket-list moment of the entire call.
Escape to the wide, wind-swept arc of Cabugao Beach — one of Ilocos Sur's most beautifully undeveloped stretches of coastline — and island-hop by bangka to the tiny offshore islet for swimming in perfectly transparent water.
You know what to do on the day. Here is the trip it belongs to — each one opens as a whole plan, not a list: where to fly in, every port, what it runs.
