Operators may tell you that you are not allowed to share with other travellers, but this is not true. You can take a min outrigger boat ride to the volcano that is within the lake. As you head from Tagaytay city toward the lake, many touts may jump in front of your vehicle offering boat rides - they take a commission. If you know where to go, however, you can catch a boat directly from the boat owners.
Once on the island, the boat guides will herd you to a point where you can go horseback riding to the volcano. It takes about minutes and is quite bumpy. The guides with the horses take you to the top which is very spectacular and you can explore the top for as long as you want. Another option is hiking which will take 50 to 90 minutes, though the hills and terrain may put some people off.
When up at the volcano, watch out for guides trying to show groups of tourists heating tricks. These consist of getting a can of soft drink or water, cutting the can or bottle in half and watching the ground heat boil the water or liquid which is pretty cool to see, and you can boil an egg if you bring one with you!
The lake and volcano are the main attractions, but there is also some rather nice mountain scenery north of the lake around Tagatay and lesser hills to the south around Cuenca. Both areas, plus various lakeside ones, have some resorts. Accommodations within Taal Volcano Natural Park's boundaries tend to be upmarket, so less expensive options are around cities and towns outside the park.
