TOUR DESCRIPTION:
At 2, 250 ft. above sea level, Tagaytay Ridge offers a magnificent view of the smallest and lowest volcano in the world, Taal Volcano, resting in the middle of serene Taal Lake. A deceptive tranquility; notable are the eruptions in 1716 and 1754 where ashes spewed by the Volcano darkened the skies combined with rains and thunders, massive earthquakes and gigantic waves driving the residents around the lake to the inner towns for refuge. The 1911 eruption claimed 1, 3000 lives and 300 more in 1965 burying 6 barrios.
