Motag Living Museum Private Tour in Aklan Province with Snacks & Transfers

Learn more about the history and culture of the province of Aklan when you visit the Motag Living Museum. This day tour comes with the assistance of a tour coordinator, traditional snacks, interactive activities, and shared pick-up and drop-off from the municipality of Kalibo or Caticlan town.

On the day of your tour, be ready at 9 AM, as your driver will pick you up from your accommodations in the municipality of Kalibo or Caticlan town at that time. After getting settled in the vehicle, you will make your way to Motag Living Museum Aklan in Barangay Motag. 

It’s called a living museum because it has many interactive exhibits that visitors will enjoy. Think of it more as a theater that will make you travel back in time and immerse in the day-to-day activities of the Malaynons. The museum will give you a picture of how life in Aklan Province was in previous times before it became one of the most visited provinces in the country. 

You’ll see how traditional farming methods are done, and if you want, you can also try plowing, planting, and pounding rice yourself. You’ll also see traditional houses made from bamboo and complete with features like a well, a traditional cart, and an outdoor toilet. Check out the local women weaving leaves into different wares like bags, some of which you can buy at the museum’s souvenir shop. The locals can also teach you the traditional way of weaving.

You’ll also notice that most of the “performers” in this Motag Living Museum tour are elderly. This is a conscious choice on the part of the museum to help honor and empower their elders.

Once you have fully explored the museum, enjoy the traditional farewell song sung by the museum’s community members before your driver brings you back to your hotel.
