Si Sotero ang naging whole day guide namin from echo valley, bokong waterfalls, kitelpan Viewpoint and Mt. Ampacao.. inantay nya pa kame while padive dive kame sa small falls. then sa Mt. Ampacao muntik na syang mahulog dahil nadulas si carol at kinapitan sya. haha maputik kase that time. buti nalang nakakapit sya.
And we're glad to know that we made it from the start to lake danum for only 3hrs. sabi nya mabilis na kame nun, pano kase ang bilis maglakad ni carol sa bundok, parang naglalakad lang sa patag.. hehe
Our Sagada trip was one hell of an adventure! From our spelunking to Sumaguing Cave to trekking to Echo Valley, Bokong Falls and Mt Ampacao were really an awesome or I must say an "extra challenge" experience for me and my friends, not to mention my "slide misadventures" during the trek hahah!! That's part of every adventure. bakit ba?! hehe
Cheers to our tour guide, Sotero!:)Our Sagada experience won't be a success and fun, fun, fun without the hand of our friendly tour guides like him. ;)
Hehe by the way si carolyn yung nakatalikod sa pic with pink bag. hehehe sikat kana! kaya lang likod lang kita sa pic. :)
By the way to sotero thank you at ginawan mo ako ng tungkod kung hindi baka hindi ko naakyat yung mga bundok dyan sa sagada hehehe.buti na lang magaling kang kumapit kung hindi dalawa na kayo ni carol nahulog sa bangin hehehe. saka syempre nag planax yata ako hehehe. see you in our next sagada adventure.

Kuya Sotero is the best!!!!!
He is very warm and alway sees to it that everybody is safe and enjoying the trip all at the same time. He got so many stories to tell and is very ready to answer questions from tourists.
Though he got another tour on our way to the bus station, he really checked if there was a bus available for us.
He may be reserved and shy but that's how he shows respect and you can truly depend and trust him. You'll have a blast with him in a subtle way!!!!!
Enjoy your sagada tour with HIM ____ Kuya Sotero Ngoloban.
Contact him @ 09395062033.
I AM THE ISRAELITE MONKEY, BTW!!!
P.S.
Salamat po KUYA!!!!
I will surely go back there!!!
Nuff said about Kuya Sotero's kindness :) . Staying in Sagada is much more fun with tour guides like him.
I hope more people will appreciate its beauty and may it get more support from the gov't in terms of promotion.
God Bless Sagada

I think Kuya Sotero lives up to this saying. He is such a humble man.
Spelunking and trekking wouldn't be more fun and safe, had it not by his careful supervision.
Thank you from the bottom of my hypothalamus!
