Tagaytay's Sky Ranch Experience



I’m not a fan of theme parks except when there’s a cable car and some sea animals in it (yep, HK Ocean Park it is).  But when you have kids with you, you have to adjust to what they want so theme park visit is a must in every travel (if there is one).

Last midweek of May (of this year), we have celebrated my mom and my youngest birthdays in my cousin’s home in Silang, Cavite.  Since they are just a few minutes away from Tagaytay, we have included this in our weekend itinerary.  Besides, I’m missing Taal volcano view already.

Since it’s a summer weekend, it is already full of people when we arrived.   Talk about good business!  It's quite hot but we just have to complete this theme park visit, so off we go.

Entrance fee to the theme park is Php80.00 and there is an entrance fee for every ride – Ferris wheel is at P150.00 for about 10 mins. ride.   This is the only ride that hubby and I tried since we wanted to see Taal volcano view from above. 

the gigantic ferris wheel
The car is quite small for 4 persons and the a/c can’t completely cool it with the intense summer heat.  We are really perspiring while inside.  But the view, it’s magnificent up there.  it's quite scarry when the ferris wheel will stop and our car will move.  We enjoyed this ride somehow.

There are also some other rides for kids.

Another best seller in the park is the ziplining which costs P500.00 for two ways.  My kids tried it and they had fun.  It has a long distance and elevated quite high.  How brave they are!  I had them pictured for a souvenir – for a hefty amount of 100 pesos per shot but priceless amount of memories.

no sign of fear on their faces





the one hundred pesos shot.. the view is sooo nice
 After the rides, the tummies are all hungry so we went to Krispy Kreme for some snacks.  While eating, we had fun watching the kids enjoying the rides.  It’s so fun being young!

Two hours is enough for this park so you can easily squeeze this activity in any Tagaytay travel.
