Rent the 4×4 Rough Riding vehicle for an hour which will then include sand boarding and thrilling drops on steep sand ridges that will make you scream in excitement. Hold on to the steel bar while standing on the 4×4 for the most exciting adventure in Paoay. The sand ridges can go as high as 10-20ft at the most, while the most thrilling ride is the “rollercoaster”, where a series of sand hills will make you hold on to that bar of steel for dear life.


After these rides, try sand boarding where a plank of wood is your equipment to slide over sand folds in the vast landscape. My first try was, of course, a fall, but it was not painful at all. If you do it once and get over the fear, I can assure that you’ll do it over and over again. It was that much fun! The hardest and most tiring aspect of the sport? Going up again walking on the hot sandy slope after sliding down, but this will not prevent you to try and try until you do it perfectly. This package will cost 2,500php.
