What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors praise Tam-Awan Village for its authentic cultural immersion and glimpse into Cordilleran heritage, especially the traditional huts and vibrant dance performances. While the entrance fee is considered reasonable, some reviewers noted a need for better maintenance and clearer explanations from staff to enhance the educational aspect of the visit.
"It was a nice experience for a 100 peso ticket entrance. A few huts while hiking to almost the top that depicts how it was back then. A glimpse into the past and a taste of culture. It was also nice to see young people dancing traditional dances."
Goldee Mabulay
"Why come here:
1. Tam-awan Village is just nearby Stone Kingdom. Before or after visiting the Stone Kingdom which is often crowded, you can enjoy a more realistic mountain dwellers village.
2. This tourist spot showcases different types of village huts, beliefs, traditions and rituals of the mountain people. There is also a mini museum which displays paintings, figures and artifacts.
3. You can also enter one of the huts, but you have to observe the rules. A group of dancers wearing traditional Igorot clothing performs traditional dances for the tourists.
The entrance fee is 100 pesos as of dec 2024 for adults it might change today. You have to climb and trek uphill to explore the village. The village is a forest itself and the steps are a bit slippery so be careful trodding uphill or downhill. You can enjoy the nature vibe while learning about the history and culture of the Igorots."

"Could have been a better experience if there were attendants ushering guest coming in. The place needs to be maintained more. There were unnecessary clutter in the stops. Hoping they could get more funds to fix the place up. It's a small park and it would have been nice to understand what it's all about but no one was there to explain.
Visitors come there from quite a distance hoping to get an idea of the past local history and I was dismayed that I wasn't able to make my daughter learn anything from the visit.
Hoping that others have a better experience. Wear mosquito repellant please.
Parking: road side. Better not come on a weekend."
