Enjoying your 4D3N Stay in Siargao
In a short span of 4D3N, you definitely wouldn’t be able to complete your bucket list without the help of travel agencies, and so months before we got there, we contacted one of the most trustful agencies in Siargao, GotMarked Tours, managed by a good friend of ours, Mark Roa.
We highly recommend getting the Land Tours and Island Tours that they offer. If you think you still have more time, you definitely could check for the new tours they are offering, the Northland Tours, covering areas that are quite different from the most visited ones.
