What do you think this poem is about?

A Tour

Tourism in the Philippines is fantastic,
Exquisite experiences are surely gigantic
To take the tour in April is quite remarkable,
Traveling around the country is much adorable.

We PWCians of BS Tourism are all eager
To indulge in a tour with great fun together.
Camiguin Island is our dreamed destination,
To see its panoramic view in full admiration.

The white Island is laid with pearly sand,
We enjoy swimming along its sandy land.
Katigwasan Falls, a grandiose cool place,
With rainbow-colored water flashing face.

On the cliff of the mountains lay live spring,
Cold-water flows to the river with joys it bring,
Then there in the end lies the sunken cemetery,
Where forefathers were buried for all eternity.

Soda spring is decorated with bubbling water,
Bathing in it sooths the tired body much better.
And finally we all deep slowly in the hot spring,
It gives warm healing heartaches as we sing.
