The experience reminded me that sometimes, even just a few hours in a beautiful place with the people you love most is already enough to create memories that last a lifetime.

When we arrived, we were amazed by the cool breeze, the fresh air, and the stunning panoramic view of the city lights slowly appearing as the sun began to set.

HOW TO GET THERE?
Getting to TOPS Cebu is actually very easy. The place is located in Busay, just a short drive away from Cebu City, and it usually takes around 30 to 45 minutes depending on the traffic. If you’re traveling with family or a big group like us, renting a van is a convenient and comfortable choice since it can bring everyone together in one ride straight to the top. For smaller groups or solo travelers, you can also take a taxi, hire a private car, or even ride a habal-habal (motorcycle taxi) from JY Square in Lahug, which is a more affordable option. The road going up is a bit winding since it’s on a mountain, but the views along the way are already a treat. Once you arrive, you’ll immediately feel the cool breeze and see the breathtaking view that makes the trip so worth it.
