Baguio City, 2011. Great to be back in Baguio! We arrived on a wet Friday afternoon and headed straight for an evening business event for Pfizer North Luzon Ortho Forum. The rains made the climate more chilling with the crisp and clean mountain air. This trip is a short and personal one.

The Manor is managed by Camp John Hay Leisure, Inc. Located 250 kilometers north of Manila in the heart of the Summer Capital of the Philippines. Baguio City is at 5,000 above sea level. It is the perfect getaway to Sagada and the Banaue Rice Terraces, an hour drive to the beaches of La Union and 4-hour drive to the Ilocos Region.

How to get to Bagiuo:

Daily air-conditioned buses to and from Manila
Scheduled commercial flights to and from Manila
Kennon Road for light vehicles only
Palispis Highway and Naguilian Road for all types of vehicle
