A fun throwback to colonial days are the
calesa horse-drawn carriages that still clip-
clop through Vigan's streets. Rates for calesa
rides should be the same as those for the
many tricycles (₱8-10 within the city limits)
that will undoubtedly by vying for your custom.
But you could also hire a private
calesa for around ₱150 per hour. Unless you're absolutely sure you have a tour guide that will give you in depth information about the sites you're visiting, a whole day calesa adventure for about ₱1000 (roughly 6-7 hours) would be advisable.

BEST TIME TO TRAVEL
It is fine to visit Ilocos at any time of the year,
but the months of September, October and
November are usually prone to typhoons and
rains, so it is always better to check the weather
forecast. Though usually the best time to visit is during the summer which is from March to May.
