Who said you need a long weekend, a 10-page itinerary, or a fully loaded bank account to take your much-anticipated holiday vacation? Sometimes the best vacations are the ones you can grab right now—no drama, no waiting, no “maybe next sweldo.” That’s exactly why Clark, Pampanga, is the ultimate quick escape: close enough to the city for a stress-free drive, but far enough to feel like you’ve stepped out of your routine.

And with GCash in your pocket, planning (and paying for) a short-but-sulit family getaway becomes effortlessly doable. From accommodation bookings with GGives, to merienda and activity stops with GCredit, to being protected with GInsure Travel Protect, everything you need for a spontaneous 48-hour reset is already in your phone.

Day 1 — Ease Into Vacation Mode

●       11:00 AM – Smooth Start: Pickup and Drive to Clark- Kick off the getaway with a smooth, no-stress pickup and an easy drive to Clark—because the best vacations start when you’re not the one navigating.

●       12:00 NN – Lunch: Fuel up with a big and delicious lunch, wherever your cravings lead—be it Rumpa for comfort food, Café Mesa for something cozy, or Amare for wood-fired pizza perfection. The best part is that most of these restaurants accept GCredit as a payment method.

●       1:00 PM – Dinosaur Island Adventure: Step into full Jurassic energy at Dinosaur Island Adventure, where life-size dinos, roaring exhibits, and quirky dino dances deliver instant family fun, especially for the kids—prebooked on Klook and paid with GCredit for a quick, secure, cashless adventure.

●       6:00 PM – Airbnb Check-In: Now, it’s time to settle into your Airbnb—which conveniently has been prebooked and paid in installments with GGives, turning big vacation costs into chill, manageable payments—then enjoy a homey, budget-friendly dinner that doubles as the perfect family bonding moment and preparation for the next day of activities.

Day 2 — Explore, Eat, and Enjoy

●       10:00 AM- 2 PM – Free Time: Sneak in some rest, stroll the nearby parks, even visit the Clark CityFront Mall, or prep for the day before the family action kicks off.

●       4:00 PM – SciENSE Museum: More than just fun destinations, the family can also go for an educational trip and explore science through interactive exhibits and playful learning in the Clark’s SciENSE Museum —tickets of which can be prebooked thanks to Klook and GCredit.

●       5:00 PM – Early Dinner and a Comfy Nightcap: After an eventful day, you and the family can unwind over a cozy meal at Aling Lucing’s Sisig, Balai Dangwa, or even Cafe Adriatico. To cap off the family’s night, you can go back to your Airbnb to rest, chat, and enjoy your last day.

Day 3 — A Soft Landing Back to Reality

●       7:00 AM – Optional Stroll at Clark Parade Ground: a refreshing reset in the local park with the kids might do you good before easing your way back to the city—and to reality.

●       11:30 AM – Checkout and Facing Reality: Grab a quick lunch with the family before heading back to the city—48 hours away, but everyone returns refreshed and ready to tackle the metro bustle.
