Drew Arellano also gets to show how to enjoy Ilocos products and delicacies without the need to fly to the lovely province.

Drew Arellano taps Biyahero Correspondent, Ancher, to explore the beauty of Ilocos Norte in the upcoming episode of Biyahe ni Drew.

Thankfully, the adventurous Ancher is up to the task as he gamely visits the province's enchanting spots like the Engkantadora Falls in Vintar, the diving and marine life sanctuary Kadilian Beach, and the Umok ni Siwawer Eco-Tourism Nature Park known for its bike and surfboard ziplines.

For those on the hunt for a place to stay while in the province, the Sitio Remedios Heritage Village in Victoria is highly recommended.

The cozy resort is located in the town of Currimao so guests will have instant beach access and can easily view the Spanish-period watchtower.

Ancher though isn't the only one who gets to experience genuine Ilocano tradition.

Not to be outdone, Drew is able to get hold of proudly Ilocos-made crafts and products like facemasks, wallet, chichacorn, coffee, and many others.

Drew's wife, Iya Villania, can't help but try some of the items herself in front of the camera.

Drew is also able to sample signature Ilocos delicacies like its famous empanada, longganisa, and bagnet--all from the comforts of his home here in the city. How? You have to watch to find out.

Catch the new episode of Biyahe ni Drew on Friday, November 20, at 9:15 P.M. on GMA News TV.
