To kick off your day tour, your guide will pick you up at either SM City Pampanga, located in San Fernando City, or SM City Clark. From there, you'll be driven to Plaza Angel, a small but charming park in the city. With its open layout and shaded areas, it’s a popular spot for locals to relax.
Once you’ve taken in the surroundings of Plaza Angel, you’ll then begin your guided walking tour through the cultural heart of Angeles City.
The impressive Museo ning Angeles is another stop on this walking tour. Housed in a former town hall, the museum now showcases local culture through historical photographs, art pieces, and a “Culinarium” exhibit celebrating the province’s renowned cuisine.
You’ll also visit the Pamintuan Mansion, a grand heritage house turned social history museum. You'll explore beautifully preserved rooms, antique furniture, and unique exhibits that showcase everyday Filipino life throughout the decades.
The Center for Kapampangan Studies is also part of the itinerary. Located within Holy Angel University, this museum is dedicated to preserving and promoting the heritage of the local people. Inside, you'll find traditional clothing, old manuscripts, historical documents, and multimedia displays.
Holy Rosary Parish Church, also known as Santo Rosario Church, is one of the city's most iconic landmarks. Built in the late 1800s, this church features stunning architecture with Gothic and Renaissance influences. As you explore the church grounds, you'll notice beautiful stained-glass windows and feel the deep spiritual atmosphere that has drawn worshippers for generations.
Another stop on this tour is the Apung Mamacalulu Shrine, a deeply revered place among locals. It houses the image of the “Merciful Lord,” a life-sized representation of the dead Christ. Many come here to pray for mercy, healing, and miracles. When you visit, you’ll witness a quiet, moving atmosphere where candles are lit and prayers are whispered in devotion.
After the tour, your guide will escort you back to your van for the return trip. You’ll be dropped off at your chosen location, either SM City Pampanga or SM City Clark, where you can take some time to relax, enjoy a meal, or explore the area at your own pace.
