As part of its advocacy to help restart the domestic tourism industry, Petron Corp. supported the recent caravan of AAP Lakbay which visited the historical, cultural, culinary and natural attractions of Maragondon and Silang towns in Cavite.
The leading oil firm has been supporting the group over the past few years by providing participants with Petron Value Cards with P 1,000 fuel credits and showcasing its latest petroleum products and road safety programs.
Under the theme “Drive, Dine and Discover”, the caravan drove through the Our Lady of the Assumption Church, Bonifacio Trial House Museum, Inuquit River Cruise, Likhang Maragondon, Cornerstone Pottery Farm and Asiong Caviteño Restaurant.
AAP Lakbay is the drive tourism arm of the Automobile Association of the Philippines (AAP), the country’s national auto club, which has been doing a series of caravans across the country’s key destinations over the past decade to promote domestic tourism.
The third during the Covid-19 pandemic period, the caravan is among the private initiatives to promote drive tourism and so-called green circuits which adhere to health and safety standards set by the Department of Tourism. The group is lining up more unique destinations off the beaten path through well-curated itineraries to spread tourism’s benefits to provincial communities.
