Splurge in the abundance of fresh and pure country air.  Relish the ambiance of rural life in the "Mango Country" whose identity festival, Manggahan sa Guimaras, commemorates its provincehood every May 22.  

Share the excitement of Karosahan, a parade led by carabao-drawn bamboo sleds decked with flowers, fruits and other farm produce which serve as floats to the province's prettiest. 

See action in the mountainbike races or cheer in the Iloilo-Guimaras Paraw (sailboat) race on summer.  Visit historical landmarks like MacArthur's wharf and Navalas church.  Be awed by the idyllic splendor of Roca Encantada summer house of the Lopes family.  Seek spiritual refuge at the Trappist Monastery or trek the Balaan Bukid (holy mountain).  

These are several resorts that cater to various moods and taste.  Prices are reasonable and dependent on the type, facilities and class of resort.
