Exploring Philippines

Holiday Reviews

We are very proud of our tailor-made trips in the Philippines but no one says it better than our lovely customers who have tried and tested our holidays. Take a peek at some of their comments below.

"It was truly magical" Jan 2020

"Thanks a lot for creating such a great trip. It was truly magical and given a chance we would like to go there every year. We came back with everlasting memories and took part in adventures activities. Danjungan Island is a secret and untouched beauty. This really made the trip an off-beat one. As soon as we boarded the boat we knew it was something different. The country is safe to travel and full of hospitable people. We want to explore other parts of Philippines with your input. It really makes a difference to get a plan from someone like Marbree who has explored there. " -GG, Jan 2020

"We were very happy with our honeymoon" May 2019

"We were very happy with our honeymoon. Marbree was excellent, we had lots of questions and queries and she promptly found out our questions and kept us well informed. Amazing day from Al Faro island hopping - so beautiful and we had an amazing lunch - this was our favourite day. The private island tour in El Nido was so worth doing we had a fab day. The diving and snorkelling at Apulit was fab and the staff couldn't do enough to help you. We recommend more use of the tricycles they are fun to go around on!" -IM, May 2019

"Thank you for your hard work, we are happy" Feb 2019

"Thank you for all your hard work and prompt attention to detail. We felt well looked after. In the north, we felt really happy and exhilarated by the mountains and the rice terraces. We loved our bam bike tour in Manila, and also really enjoyed the Henry Hotel. In Banaue, we had an amazing guide - sweet enthusiastic and extremely caring. We also loved the hike through the rice terraces in Batad and the trek down to the waterfall. We loved the private tour in Coron, great snorkeling and lagoons. Shout out to the Funny Lion - a fabulous hotel, hits all the right notes!!!!" HH, Feb 2019

"A fabulous holiday - a stunning place to visit!" Feb 2019

"We had a fabulous holiday - a stunning place to visit! Thank you for organising. Fantastic trip - the schedule was great. We had 4 different venues and enjoyed the different locations - all offered different but complimentary experiences. Liked the Sabang resort and local restaurants. Qi Palawan was also excellent and really allowed us to chill. All their staff were really nice and helpful. Apulit was amazing especially dressed up for Chinese New Year! Wish we had stayed another night! We arranged a private boat trip in El Nido - not cheap by Asian standards but worth every penny and had the most fabulous day. Everyone was so helpful and we never felt unsafe or harassed." -AM, Feb 2019

Manila

The bustling capital city is home to historic Intramuros and Rizal Park. Let us arrange a bicycle tour of the walled city so you can explore the narrow streets and learn about the nation's colonial past. More

Banaue

Ancient rice terraces in Batad, coffins mounted on a cliff in Sagada, the Cordillera is home to some of the most unique and fascinating bits of the Philippines. More

Vigan

Some of the best preserved Spanish colonial architecture in the world can be found in Vigan. Wander the cobbled streets, sample the Spanish-influenced cuisine, and relax in one of the city's historic boutique hotels. More

Boracay

Sink your toes into the white sands of Boracay. Grab a cocktail, take it easy, and watch the clear blue water lap against the shore. When night falls, join the parties of District Two or slip away to romantic Diniwid beach. More

Bohol

Chocolate hills, tiny tarsiers, Boholano art, beautiful beaches, and some lovely snorkeling and diving make Bohol one of our favorite parts of the Philippines. The gorgeous boutique resorts don't hurt, either! More

Negros Oriental

The island of Negros is home to world-class diving off the coast of Dauin and on neighboring Apo Island. Waterfalls and adventure are just a day trip away from the university town of Dumaguete. On neighboring Siquijor settle in to the tranquility of an island known for sorcery and healing powers. More

Negros Occidental

On the west coast of Negros you'll find Bacolod, the city of smiles. Sugar plantations in the area host historic mansions and in October, the streets come alive with the annual MassKara festival. More

Puerto Princesa

The gateway to Palawan, Puerto Princesa sits near one of the longest subterranean rivers in the world. Let us arrange a stay for you at a beachside hotel with mountain views just a short boat ride away. More

El Nido

When people refer to Palawan as the most beautiful island in the world, images of El Nido come to mind. Limestone cliffs jut from aquamarine water, lush jungle fills the interior, and the coasts are lined with dazzling beaches. Some of the finest resorts in the country dot the islands around this northern bit of Palawan. More

Coron

For divers, the WWII shipwrecks of Coron are one of the highlights of the Philippines. Natural hot springs, clear blue lakes, isolated beaches, and a rather surprising game reserve and wildlife sanctuary make Coron a fun destination for divers and landlubbers alike. More

Puerto Galera

Fast drift dives and schools of big fish await experienced divers in Puerto Galera while shallow macro dives make for excellent underwater photography, relaxing night dives, and the perfect place to learn or improve your dive skills. More

Tubbataha Reefs

The greatest variety of marine life in the Philippines is within Tubbataha Reefs National Marine Park; only accessible for diving mid-March to mid-June
