▶look for the tourism office and secure a permit to hike on Mt. Agua Colonia (It is mandatory for your safety). The Municipal officer will coordinate to Brgy. Lico for your safety.💡
▶Look for a Motorcycle (habal2x) bound to seven cities, particularly to Brgy. Lico (almost two hours of trip). The fare is negotiable at Php500/Motorcycle for one way. P.S. Actually, we closed a deal at Php250/Motorcycle 😀. Note: bad road condition and even worse during rainy season.
