Without question, hiring a SEGA guide is a hella smart decision. Sure, you might be travelling on a tight budget, but skimping on a reliable guide would cost you your life exploring Sagada.
So, expect the guided tours to be slightly pricey, however, they won't even be a quarter of how much you'd likely shell out for a similar tour in the other parts of the world. They also offer lower rates for larger groups.
You'll also discover that there are other guiding associations around town. It is to be noted, though, that the SEGA guides have undergone training and theirs is the pioneer group.

Shopping
It is interesting to note that no matter how mothers with babies and toddlers thrive in Sagada, there don't seem to be any shop selling baby stuff.
Except for 7J's. They are working on adding baby essentials to their merch. This store is also stocked with a wide array of apparel and accessories apart from the souvenirs that you can also find in the other local shops.

Got a sweet tooth? You'll love the strawberry preserves they have here.
They grow the berries and make the jam themselves, contrary to the jams in the other stores which are sourced from La Trinidad's strawberry farms. In my very honest opinion, Sagada strawberries are cleaner.
