Discover the legacy of Pampanga Province on this historical walking tour in Clark City, where you’ll visit open spaces, museums, and preserved landmarks that reflect the area’s rich past.
Pampanga Province, known as the Culinary Capital of the Philippines, is not only home to flavorful dishes but also to places rich in history.
One of its most fascinating areas is Clark City—once a major U.S. military base, now transformed into a modern economic and tourism hub that still holds deep historical significance.
This guided walking tour includes convenient van transfers to and from select areas in Pampanga Province, the expertise of a museum curator, the service of a friendly tour guide, and bottled water to keep you fueled throughout this immersive historical experience.
To start your day tour, your guide will pick you up at either SM City Pampanga, located in San Fernando City, or SM City Clark, then take you to the Clark Veterans Cemetery, where your walking tour begins.
Clark Veterans Cemetery is a peaceful and well-maintained memorial park. It serves as the final resting place of thousands of Filipino and American soldiers who served under the U.S. military. As you walk through the neat rows of white headstones, your guide will share the history behind the site and the stories of those buried here.
You’ll also visit Air Force City Park, an open-air display featuring real military aircraft, which includes helicopters and fighter jets. It's a popular spot for families, with wide open spaces and shaded areas where you can take a break or snap a few photos.
Another stop on this tour is the lush Clark Parade Grounds. This large open space was once used for military drills during the American period. Today, it’s a favorite spot for walking, jogging, and community events. As you walk around, you’ll see old trees, historical buildings nearby, and locals enjoying the fresh air.
While you’re in the area, you’ll also step inside the impressive Clark Museum, located near the parade grounds. This museum features exhibits about Clark City’s transformation—from a former U.S. air base to a modern business and leisure hub. Inside, you’ll find old photos, artifacts, and multimedia displays that bring the city’s history to life.
After exploring on foot, you’ll hop back into the van for a rolling tour around the Clark Freeport Zone. You’ll pass by government buildings, hotels, business centers, and other landmarks that show Clark City’s growth into a thriving economic zone. It’s a relaxed drive that allows you to see more of what the city has to offer.
At the end of your tour, your guide will drop you off at your preferred location—either SM City Pampanga or SM City Clark. From there, you can take your time to enjoy a meal, do some shopping, or just rest after a meaningful day in Clark City.
