Ever dream of cruising around the islands of the Philippines? Now this is your chance!
The 7107 Island Cruise Ship opened late last year as the first luxury ship that can accommodate 400 guests in great cruising experience around the country.
Through 7107 Island Cruise we will finally have a chance to tour around the greatest beach and island destinations, journey to these beautiful places like Boracay, Coron, Ditaytayan, Panlaitan, Calauit, Apo Reef, Subic and access to other private islands.
The ship provides a five-star luxury accommodation for every island hoppers and travelers on their journey to these beautiful places in the country.
No other travel package can beat this summer cruise expedition the 7107 Island Cruise is offering. A visit to these beautiful places on a journey while in the comfort of a five star cabin hotel!
Cruising in 7107 Island Cruise Ship could mean this itinerary.
On the first day, embark 7107 Island Cruise Ship at Batangas pier around 10 o’clock in the evening sailing towards Boracay. For first time sailors who can’t sleep at night, there are lots of activities onboard to tire you to sleep like live bands, bar, spa or have a quiet time sightseeing or stargazing at the deck.
The morning comes and long anticipated Boracay oh Boracay! known as the Party Island Escapade! Arriving around noon time the following day will give us a half day lazing around the immaculate white sand beach and a whole night of partying! Make sure you have enough energy to wake up early to enjoy a whole day of fun for water sports activities the following morning.
Following night, the ship will glide again heading to Coron. Let us relax for awhile in Sauna room and have a beauty sleep. We have a whole day unraveling the Coron Island of Calamianes, Palawan!
The Calamianes is rich with coral reefs, mangrove forests reserve, sandy beaches, protected bays and inlets, and majestic karsts and cliff formations which provide diverse array of marine and coastal habitats, making it one of the most bio diverse groups of islands in the Philippines. Coral reefs, sea grass and mangroves border every island that is why some of them are nesting grounds for sea turtles, inhabited by dugongs as well as two species of endangered marine crocodiles, making it a high potential area for marine tourism.
From Coron Island, the ship will transfer in a short distance island also located in Calamianes, to the Ditaytayan Island and Malcapuya Island. These are privately owned by 7107 Islands Cruise’s sister company. It is a special treat to 7107 Island Cruise ship guests. This is where powdery white sand beaches and flourishing coral gardens meet!
Guests can enjoy a picnic lunch in Malcapuya’s Cabanas and then island hop to neighboring islands of Cheron Island and Banana Island and have dinner on the sandbar of Ditaytayan Island which swirls towards the azure sea. Don’t forget to look for Dugong or Sea Cow, Monkey, Wild Ducks and Giant Clams while you are there.
You must be exhausted from Palawan’s island escapade, to bother you an early dawn sailing to Panlaitan. Sureness, you’ll be rushing your breakfast to go out and play volleyball on the beautiful long white stretch beach or start snorkeling to watch the coral gardens bloom beneath these clear waters.
As we sleep at night, we’ll be awake by the time the ship reached Calauit Game Preserve and Wildlife Sanctuary and later a stop at the Apo Reef where the second largest contiguous coral reef in the world can be found!
Spend the rest of the day explore the world of Apo Reef and discover exotic marine life and fabulous coral walls and lagoons!
During dinner time, the 7107 Island Cruise ship will be leaving for the final travel destination – Subic!
Arrive at Subic the following day before noon time where you may await for another travel adventure! From aqua sports to paragliding, hiking and trekking and many more!
So what are you waiting for? Let’s cruise and have fun aboard the 7107 Island Cruise ship this summer! Email me at gagabytes@gmail.com.

Summer is here. Everyone is looking for a place to quench the uncomfortably shift of the weather. Whether to plunge in a pool, looking for the best halo-halo nearby, or enjoying the stillness of the hot summer and having fun in the beaches not far from our places or doing anything to feel comfortable, you can chill your way out in Tagaytay City which is less than an hour drive away from Manila.
The cool climate and pristine air of Tagaytay City offer variety of activities for the whole family or barkada to enjoy. Kids would love to fly a kite, while everybody else enjoys cooking out or horseback riding at the Picnic Grove or simply enjoy the view of the famous Taal volcano and the lake.
Visiting Tagaytay City with no apparent aim of destination is no problem. Just stroll around and every leisure and activities will be available. Even a low budget visit will make your tour a sure-fire stay.
The lush, calming air cooling the city will easily chill down the temper while leisurely walking or little trekking in the park.
Little trekking your way up to People’s Park in the Sky or Imelda Marcos’ Palace in the Sky will give you a spectacular view of Manila Bay, Laguna Bay, Taal Lake and the Balayan Bay. The controversial Palace in the Sky, once owned by former President Ferdinand Marcos, is nestled at the highest point of Tagaytay.
Animal lovers can visit the Halfway Zoo which houses some wild animals. The zoo also has unique flora and fauna to enjoy and so with the rest of the city. Tagaytay is, indeed, a garden city by itself.
Tagaytay City is popular for couples who want a quick romance getaway or adventure. The cold environment of Tagaytay and the phenomenal views makes every point of Tagaytay a soulful and amorous place to enjoy. The weather provides you a natural expressive love or romance. The city is famous for wedding venues and these rites often are dubbed the “Wedding in the Sky” or “Wedding made in Heaven.”
Tagaytay is not only famous destination for families, lovers or couples, but to any barkadas too! The cool city has many bars, and restaurants and a casino too! Some bars and restaurants are owned by popular showbiz personalities like Richard Merk and Freddie Aguillar.
Golf wannabes loved to play here. Everyone who are going some place else like Batangas, will make sure they will pause a moment to experience bulalo and tawilis in the city. Tagaytay market sells cheap fresh beef and other vegetables. Barako coffee beans, buko tart and flowering plants is a must buy!
