Ilocos Tours

Ilocos has four major provinces — Ilocos Norte, Ilocos Sur, Pangasinan and La Union. It has 3 major towns popular for sightseeing; this includes Laoag, Pagudpud, and Vigan. When it comes to Ilocos tourist spots, the well-known ones include Bangui Windmills, Patapat Viaduct, Kapurpurawan Rock Formation, Cape Bojeador Lighthouse, Calle Crisologo, Paoay and La Paz Sand Dunes, Baluarte, and many more.

In terms of weather, December-March are the best months to visit Ilocos because there’s not much rain. Meanwhile, late December and the Holy Week are considered peak seasons.

If you’re only planning to do some light sightseeing, it’s recommended to spend 1-2 days in Ilocos. On the other hand, if you want to explore Ilocos region in its entirety, it’s best to spend more than 3 days there so you can have more time to visit other attractions and try more activities.

Ilocos is a relatively safe place with a low crime rate. However, make sure to practice caution, like with other provinces in the Philippines.

Locals speak the Ilocano language in Ilocos regions. Some also speak Tagalog and English.
