7 Alternative Valentine's Day Dates

Valentine's Day is next week and although a classic dinner date is always romantic, sometimes you just want to do something different - which will also end up being cheaper and more memorable at that! We've got 7 suggestions for alternative dates for the 14th or for any date night/day!

1.) An afternoon at Casa Gorordo Museum

For only 120pesos as entrance fee, get transported back in time to Cebu in the 1800s. Close out the date with a flavored iced tea during hot days or traditional hot chocolate or "sikwate" with their special mamon or any of their ensaymadas (the ube is our favorite!) at their quaint cafe. And maybe grab a little souvenir at the gift shop!

2.) Hike up Osmena Peak

Drive down to Dalaguete and enjoy the hike up Cebu's tallest peak. You don't have to be a hard core climber and start sea to summit - there's an easier route where you take a habal-habal from the Mantalongon market for a scenic motorcycle ride up the mountains to the final ascend point where it will take you a 15-30 min trek to enjoy the view. You can also opt to camp out overnight and trek down the other side to Kawasan Falls.
