Why I Chose This for You

Because the Philippines pairs raw natural beauty with real cultural depth. You’ll walk terraces carved by hand centuries ago, step through cobbled streets where time lingers, and then unwind by island seas. It’s a thoughtful balance of exploration and serenity — ideal for solo travellers who want variety without worry.

About this Trip

Discover a side of Southeast Asia that still feels like a well-kept secret. This immersive small-group journey traces a route from Luzon’s emerald rice terraces and sacred caves to Vigan’s UNESCO-listed colonial streets, before flying south for Bohol’s Chocolate Hills, tarsier sanctuaries and white-sand shores. With guided experiences, internal flights and transfers all arranged, you can focus on the wonder — and the welcome.
