PADYAK TURISMO, UMARANGKADA NA!
May 05, 2025
Kahapon, we launched the Philippine Cyclo Tourism or Padyak Turismo sa Cafe Agapita sa Silang, Cavite, where it all began: the early meetings, the brainstorming, the shared vision. It was a full circle moment.
This new program signifies the undeniable success of its predecessor, the 'Philippine Motorcycle Tourism' program as well as this is proof na patuloy tayong lumalawak at nagi-innovate ng mga bagong paraan para mas mailapit ang ating mga kababayan—at ang buong mundo— sa ganda ng Pilipinas.
As health advocate, I see this as an investment in our people's health. Biking is good for the body, for the heart, and for the soul.
I also believe that Padyak Turismo is also an avenue for unity. Sa panahong puno ng pagkakawatak-watak, I hope, every pedal forward becomes an act of solidarity with each other, with nature, and with our local communities.
Rest assured that we will continue to work with our tourism and health agencies, LGUs, and private sector partners to ensure Padyak Turismo thrives and reaches every corner of the country.
Big thanks to Tourism Promotions Board chief operating officer Maria Margarita Nograles and director Cesar Villanueva; Department of Tourism Regions IV-A director Marites Castro, Ahmot Baranda (Cafe Agapita), and Ritchie (Specialized PH) and my fellow advocates!
Mabuhay ang PH Cyclo Tourism!
