The hospital in Tagaytay next to the mall is amazing as well. My mom was in that hospital as she spent the last years of her life in Tagaytay. I love how small the town is, but you get everything. And the people are the kindest, most amazing people.
Watched it till the end, missing Tagaytay.. Too bad its raining,. the view on Twin Lakes didn't show up. It makes a lot of difference when there's a local touring you around and explaining what you are eating. Great vlog! 👍💯
In the age of mobile phones just send them a photo of the passport. nobody needs to hold your passport for anything, you can also give someone your intl. drivers license.
Wow! Ate Bambi is super ganda! Nice to see you interacted with a local which happened to be a pretty dalaga! Came here last year April 2023 on a Tagaytay Tour with the recommendation of several online reviews, with stunning views of Taal Volcano. Arrived at The People's Park in the Sky, walking to each of the corners where you can take pictures on how scenic the mountains are and the Lake surrounding Mt. Taal Volcano. I was one of those who were just so camera happy, it's that beautiful. What did this tour include? A stop at Napa Coffee House, People's Park in the Sky, which was the former retreat home of the Marcos Family. Tour of Museo Orlina, and lunch at Veranda at Taal Vista Hotel. I had a great experience. All in my group all felt safe, comfortable, and just learned so much in just a few hours from all these fun facts from our tour guide shared with us. If there were extra stops you wanted to do, they were more than happy to bring you over. Super friendly, plenty of hospitality.
I’m happy so see you with somebody like bamby and her friend to show you the beauty of Tagaytay. It’s difficult like you as foreigner to find the place if you are not familiar. Enjoy and visit Baguio City.
I remember going to that Starbucks with small or no lines. Once it started to get Vlogged, the place got crowded. Now we have a new favorite coffee shop with a view but not saying the location. Come back sometime when it is not raining and you will really be able to see some nice views.
I feel you shoud do this more often. get a local or one of your channel viewers willing to travel with you for a day to show their hometowns. It could make for some more varied content and also you could do another interview with them to tell about their life there or their own travels as a separate clip.
@@scwork445 He can obviously have a zoom with them before and see if they have chemistry, willing to be on camera and what they plan to do. he can also delete any footage after, this is an edited vlog not a live.
You can actually buy a unit at Wind Residence (yes, even as a foreigner), and they have an in-house property management arm where they would rent the unit out for you for a small fee. Good investment...I was offered that during my last stay, but since I wasnt sure if I wanted to stay in the country or how often I visit, I didnt want the headache.
Big 👍Like! Glad you finally went to Tagaytay. Brings back memories for me. Also stayed in Wind River (different tower similar view) left my drivers license instead of passport - never surrender passport.
Taal Volcano is the worlds smallest volcano. It is also called " An Island within an Island (Volcano island inside the Luzon Island) ,A Lake within a Lake ( Volcano wit lake crater inside the Taal Lake ) and a Volcano within a Volcano ( according to history, the main crater of Taal volcano is the Taal lake itself result of eruption thousand of years ago ( or its called Caldera ).
surrender your passport?!? i have NEVER heard of that before and it's good that you never surrendered it. If someone had asked me that, i would have inquired someplace else.
Thanks for a fair review of the foods in general, i know your not a food guro but your review is more relatable, the first professional food expert that appreciate filipino foods is Andrew Zimmerman, Bourdain did not really dig deep in filipino foods.
Balai Dako is where you should try comfort Filipino cuisine. Bulalo soup is also a must to try there too. Twin Lakes Vineyard is also a good place to buy sweets and pasalubong. Buko Pie is a famous pasalubong to buy in the area. Sonya's Garden is a therapeutic place for there organic foods. Down Tagaytay Nuvali in Sta Rosa and Enchanted Kingdom are the places to visit coming from Tagaytay. Lucky enough to have a very beautiful young lady subscriber who knows how to tour you locally in Tagaytay especially. She looks classy too.
Try to connect with Bambi or a local subscriber whenever you want to explore other provinces in Luzon. It’s different when you have a local guiding you places where tourists usually miss to go. She’s cute to be your tour companion in Tagaytay though we’re used to see you traveling alone. Glad you finally made acquaintance/friends with Filipinos and explored Tagaytay with them. ❤️ Tasting local delicacies is part of travel and knowing the Philippines has so many islands, eating local foods from the different provinces is an adventure. Time to do that Zane while you’re still in the country.
I agree but it could be he feels uncomfortable to do this. he didnt have much interaction with Bambi in the video as well, maybe he did but he didnt show it in the clip
It's a bus terminal where buses from outside Metro Manila wait for passengers going outside the city i.e. nearby provinces like Cavite, Batangas, Laguna and Rizal.
@@TheMaiah13 It's the PITX in Parañaque city, the former site of the Uniwide mall, along Coastal Rd. Btw, you can take a bus - 1st class, a/c, the works- that goes all the way to Davao City. I'm not even kidding. 💐
I've travelled all over the world, but have never been anywhere where they've asked to keep my passport. Asking to see it is very normal, but I would be very suspicious of anywhere that wants to take my passport out of my possession for the duration of my stay. As an aside, it always cracks me up when an American says they were "bummed", it has an ENTIRELY different meaning here in the UK. 🤣
i think they're asking for some kind of ID from you and knowing that you're a foreigner, passport is the only form of identification for them. Next time you can just give them your driver's license if they're just asking for some kind of identification but not passport.
@@nathrebs9107 What? Did you go to college? Go back to school and learn about Filipino citizenship. FYI kid, a Filipino can look like a Malaysian, Chinese, Spaniard, Indonesian. European, Indian, Black, Caucasian, Arab, etc. Being a Filipino is based on blood line. Our citizenship is NOT based on how you look.
@@RR52517 native pinay looks like pinay badjao from malay race. Bambi is definitely a pinay becuse of her citizenship but she has some eurasian features like Pia Wurtzbach. I'm not saying badjao people are ugly.!
I already stayed that Airbn they always asking any identification passport or divers license that’s there policy or rules and regulation.. Enjoy tagaytay

Kudos to the woman who accompanied you. She knows the best places in Tagaytay. 😊
He would probably need a taxi or rental car to get around there, doesnt seem to be an actual city with public transport to all those resorts
@@anon-tlv3399there are tricycles and buses around but you’re right, to get to some places you do need a car.
@@JustTiisLeague especially Crosswinds and Twin Lake which are from end to end.
although they all didnt have anything local, apart from the last restaurant it was all immitations of western styles of food and decor.

Bambi is absolutely gorgeous! And so is her friend. Hope you get to be long-time friends. 👍
I must say, I'm impressed with the beauty of this country and its people.
My boy was nice and refreshed the next morning after dinner with Bambi.
Got the ladies as guides, smooth.

Welcome to philippines.
Wow! Stunning View! Taal Lake and Volcano! SM got a good location for their condos.
What a beautiful place to visit! Glad you met some nice people. All the best!
Cool visit to Tagaytay. You could add Laguna and/or Batangas to the trip, since you're down that way...
So this is where the love story started
Watched it till the end, missing Tagaytay.. Too bad its raining,. the view on Twin Lakes didn't show up.
It makes a lot of difference when there's a local touring you around and explaining what you are eating. Great vlog! 👍💯
What a beautiful place to visit! Glad you met some nice people.
Going to the Philippines in November, definitely adding this to my list of places to visit
November is a good time, and temperature drop at night. Enjoy.
21:19 Joe's Tavern looks amazing very cozy.
Bambi just parked like an A hole at the Tavern.
Tagaytay,is the one most beautiful to visit. The cold weather is great😉
Just enjoy your journey it's a lot of fun experiences in the Philippines keep safe 👍🫰👏🌠
I completely and totally agree. I would NEVER surrender my most important document, my passport, while traveling internationally. Travel 101 😊

i stay there every year,Tower 5 . perfct view of Tall. going for my 4th time in January. Thanks for sharing
Great travel content, 🎉 there is a lot of travel bloggers out there definitely your one of the 2 that i really appreciate, cheeersss
Zane, Bambi is girlfriend material, so is her friend. Bulalo is best when it's cold and raining. Perfect comfort food.
Interesting fact about Taal: The volcano itself has a lake of its own inside its crater called, the Crater Lake.
I haven’t been there in years! Would love to go back again 😊
I have never seen a foreign vlogger who visited Sagada. That's an awesome place.
They Have a Few Bloggers Visited Sagada Already … Fearless and Far , Kulas Becoming Filipino and Few Others I Forgot their Names….
I would love to see you hang out with locals more! This video was awesome!
You’re such a lucky guy Zane. You got a very pretty tour guide in Tagaytay. I’m so glad to find places I’ve never been in Tagaytay.
Why he’s Lucky 😅😂😂
I love TAgaytay. If I ever decide to live back home again, thats where I am going.
This is not how I imagined the Philippines at all. Wow.
❤ Tagaytay, my home City ❤ 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

I hope you continue making videos in that direction because your food reviews are even better when you're with someone."
I completely agree! under any circumstances, never let people hold on to your passport. That's a big no no to any traveler.
Why they Need your passport Anyway For What ???? If They Have a Valid Reason Yeah Otherwise it’s a No no !!!😅 😂😂
wow the audacity of these hotels motels to get your passport. I agree thats a no no
@@piacash5216 It's a requirement by the local government.
Close proximity to Tagaytay is the heritage town of Taal. It's like going back to colonial Spanish Philippines there
Taal is a very nice city. Close to the beaches in Batangas.
Welcome Back , Zane
Hey Zane, in case you don’t know. Taal volcano was featured on Katy Perry’s music video ROAR.
😬
Tagaytay is so cool and awesome views 🌲🍀☘️🌿🌴🌾🌷🌹🥀🪻🌸🍄💚💚💚
Bambi reminds me of my classmate in high school. Bambi looks very Indonesian/El Salvador. Have fun there!

Am sad that Josephine’s Tagaytay closed down. Loved that place
This is a nice tour. 😊
Good stuff brother
Cool. I was at that Starbucks in 2015. Didn’t know it was famous. Just told everyone it’s the best from a Starbucks I’ve ever seen
Sir, your videos are great 👍👍👍
There's a lot of good restaurant there overlooking Taal Volcano
Wow what a beautiful bus terminal
Nice Zane. That's my girlfriend's hometown. Enjoy your travels.
Awesome 👏
The queue in that Starbucks is insane.
Vlog was not what i expected in a good way 👍👍

Yeah Bourdain committed a mistake by naming Cebu lechon as the best in the world

Come to new zealand i can show u around. Bring bambi and her friend.
Food for life man❤

Try ilocos sur or ilocos norte. I can assist you since I don't have a work right now
Tagaytay reminds me of Colorado Springs. It’s kinda similar to Garden of the Gods.
We went to Tagaytay and arrived at 6AM in the morning but the line was so long
Pale ale no bueno lol but this place seems amazing cheers 🥂
You’re so cute with good hair!
Batangas Province is the home of Taal Volcano.
im going to the philipines in one month
Sisig only 1 time in 9 months with all of your Philippine travel? Can’t blame you, it’s not the best
Love your pragmatism. Fun episode with the locals
Zane, FYI there's a Tap Station in BGC in Forbes Town area
After the volcano city next should be Baguio the mountain city . Baguio is a former American Hill Station .
