Very nice trip. The tours are good. The city tour in puerto Pricessa was very poor.

Hanneke Jacobs

Guide to the Philippines has really helped me to get around Palawan, and always making sure if I was comfortable. That was really nice! Hotels -Hue hotel was perfect! Very nice and comfortable, and great styling. The food was super, and the staff nice. The breakfast options were amazing!!! -For the budget option i was supposed to have another hotel, but because it was so busy, I had to switch to Marianne hotel. A hotel that is not finished yet, and still under construction, so no pool and quite some noise and building site smells. Room was all right, but the cleaning could have been better (water stains on mirror and such). Breakfast was not so good, the second day I even chose to have it somewhere else. Transport The transport was arranged perfectly! Nice drivers and on time. Tours - underground river was amazing! Otherworldly! We were lucky because of the weather, other ones were canceled. Lunch was ok. Apparently people could choose an add on to this tour, and go ziplining. Some chose to do this, resulting in having to wait for quite a while. Could have done without that, -honda bay tour was super! The lunch they prepared was absolutely lovely, and the guide took well care of us. We saw some lovely islands and beautiful beaches! Good atmosphere! - Tour C El Nido : i was supposed to be on another tour but in all confusion, i ender up on this one. It was too crowded, and the boat with 30 capacity had 43 tourists on it. After asking, they had to get extra life jackets from another boat. It was not comfortable with so many people on the boat and on the islands. It really was mass tourism, but at least I saw the beautiful nature! All in all, I am very happy I had the help of Guide to the Philippines and would definitely book again! But no more El Nido! Thank you!

Duncan McIlwraith

Notice of itinerary change arrived the day before our tour started! Despite having booked and paid 2 months previous, island flights had not been booked. This meant two boat tours on successive days, no rest day and first destination cut short. Too long at the following hotel ( which had a bad drain smell) and a late flight to Manila , this meant hanging around and then arriving 8pm in the dark. Extremely unprofessional. We asked for assistance to book four days following our island tour, a reservation was made and cancelled on our way back to Manila, we made our own reservation. The on site agents were polite and punctual. The weather was nice.

The guide is very knowledgeable and accommodating. My family and I enjoyed every seconds of the tour. Highly recommended :)

Philippines - Tour Highlights and Travel Tips

The Republic of the Philippines, or simply the Philippines, is made up of more than 7,000 islands in the Western Pacific. The beautiful country is equally known for its postcard-perfect beaches and its historic attractions, like Binondo (it’s centuries-old Chinatown) and the 17th-century San Agustin Church. The Philippines has a little something for everyone, whether you’re looking for pure relaxation or a little bit of adventure.

Tour Highlights

• Swim the crystal clear waters of Kayangan Lake in Coron Island

Travel Tips

• The country’s Jeepneys are an easy and affordable way to get around. These bright coloured buses were created from the Jeeps left by American soldiers following World War II.
• While the Philippines is a safe country to visit overall, there are some areas that are unsafe for tourists due to a high military presence, terrorism and other violent crimes. Research areas before you visit, stick to tourist areas and generally avoid the southern region of the country.
• Don’t have time to brush up on your Tagalog before you visit? Don’t worry - the Philippines is the fifth largest English-speaking nation in the world!
• Get your taste buds ready, because the Philippines has some of the best fruit juices and shakes in the world, and they’re sold on nearly every street corner. Be sure to try the Buko Shake, made of coconut flesh, coconut milk, coconut water and sugar.

Best time to visit philippines.

With a year-round warm climate, expect hot weather when visiting the Philippines at any time of the year. Sea breezes prevail in the coastal regions between November and February, so travel during this time if you wish to take the edge off the heat. January to May are considered the optimum times to visit though, as it is best to avoid the typhoon season which runs from July to October and involves heavy rain, flooding and high winds.

Geography and environment

Consisting of more than 7,000 islands, the Philippines archipelago is located in the South-East of  Asia , in between the South China Sea and the Philippine Sea. Being a part of the Pacific Ring of Fire, the Philippines is home to many active volcanoes and a staggering amount of biodiversity, with thousands of plant, mammal, fish and bird species living on land and in the sea. As a very mountainous country, the Philippines is dotted with numerous peaks, which give way to deep valleys that are often studded with rivers and streams. Tropical rainforest occupies much of the landmass, with most of the population living on the low lying coastal areas.

Top 5 fun festivals of the Philippines

1. ati-atihan.

With a history that dates all the way back to 1210, this flamboyant festival is considered one of the Philippines' best. Think massive ostentatious costumes, loud drumming, floats of parading dancers, riotous crowds and a healthy dose of partying and you've got Ati-Atihan - the Philippines' best shot at Rio Carnaval.

2. Grand Cordillera Festival

Baguio reserves the fourth last week of November to celebrate life and local culture with ethnic songs, dance, costume and food. This festival spreads peace and tolerance and provides an interesting snapshot of the lives of the ethnic people of the northern Luzon area.

3. Dinagyang

Iloilo City gets its chance to party with its own version of Ati-Atihan. City streets are decked out with colourful banners, street stalls sizzle with barbecued pork, and chicken and costumed dancers compete for glory.

4. Feast of Our Lady of Candles

This annual display of epic religious pageantry features a procession of the patroness, fiesta queen and court through the streets and town center of Jaro. Locals carry candles and a statue of the Virgin Mary to the town cathedral, where crowds of people wait. This spirited and vibrant festival is a great introduction to Filipino culture and religious celebration.

5. Obando Fertility Festival

Want to see couples dance through the streets in aid of hopefully producing a child? Each year, the town of Bulacan holds this festival for childless couples who wish to produce children. Couples dance down the street to the local church, dance up the aisle and attend mass in honor of the three local patron saints.

Best Philippines Tour Packages in 2024

What makes the philippines a perfect holiday paradise.

Think of a vacation that has sunshine, beaches, water sports, wildlife, shopping and delicious food in one platter. This is what the Philippines offers and more. A trip here might be a great choice for international holidays. The beaches are white and clean while the water is cool, clear turquoise. The Philippines has an incredible variety of wildlife and marine life. Philippines tourism offers a great opportunity to see volcanic peaks of various sizes. You can see the world’s smallest volcano, Taal, at close range. The climate of the Philippines is conducive to tourism since it is neither too hot nor too cold. A big inviting factor for Philippines tour packages is that the locals are warm and welcoming. Another very comfortable factor is the language. English being the official language here, there is never a language barrier in your Philippines tour.

Philippines Tourism: Best Time to Visit

The best time to avail a Philippines package is during the peak months of December to March. The shoulder months of April-May and November are good enough with cheaper deals. Though you may find some offers shutting down in May. June to October is the rainy season and the Philippines faces a threat of typhoons. Try not to book holiday tour packages to the Philippines during this time.

Philippines Visa for Indians

A tourist visa makes for a valid stay of 14 days for your India to Philippines tour package. You may request an extension of up to 7 days. Special tourist visas are available for stays for 3 or 6 months. Along with the visa, you must produce a return ticket and a passport valid up to 6 months after your visit. Visa fees for Philippines tour packages will be about INR 3000.

Philippines Tourism: Best Places to Visit

You cannot miss the capital city during Philippines tour packages. The modern city has lustrous skyscrapers, parks, malls, hotels and every sign of the modern concrete world. These loom over the foaming waves of the water right next to the land. The city is well-planned and neat making it a welcome place for tourists. Excellent hospitality is one of the appeals of Philippines tourism and you will find the best examples of this in Manila. Manila has an American Cemetery and a Chinese Cemetery. You can visit the Pinto Art Museum, the Ayala Museum, the National Museum of the Filipino People and Fort Santiago.

Located in the Central Visayas Region of the Philippines, Cebu is a cluster of about 150 small and big islands. The beaches are beautiful and there are lots of activities to keep you engaged. There is charming architecture to appreciate as you tour the various islands. Cebu is the most-visited place for most Philippines tour packages. You must find time to visit the Casa Gorordo Museum, Fort San Pedro, Museo Sugbo and Basilica Minore del Santo Nino.

Mactan Island

Are you planning to avail Philippines honeymoon package? Book a stay in scenic, romantic Mactan Island. With numerous resorts catering to couples, the island is a relaxing retreat for tourists. Most Philippines tour packages make island hopping tours and shopping in Cebu city easily accessible. There are excellent diving spots for snorkelling. Get charmed with the marine life as well as forests on your tours in and around the island. Take time out to visit the Talima, Olango Island Wildlife Sanctuary and Nalusuan Island Marine Sanctuary. Enjoy at the Palace Casino Cebu.

In Palawan, El Nido is the biggest attraction. It is a stunning location on the coral-green ocean waters while on the way to the Bacuit archipelago. Steep, straight limestone cliffs rise right out of the ocean waters. There are many caves and islets around for tourists on Philippines tour packages to explore. While there, try to visit the subterranean river of Puerto Princesa with its limestone karst and underground caves. Palawan also houses a Butterfly Eco Garden and Tribal Village, the Heritage Centre, Palawan Museum and various beaches. Check whether your Philippines package includes Palawan.

Philippines Tourism: Local Dishes to Try

This is by far the most sought-after dish in the Philippines that you would savour during Philippines tour packages. This traditional Filipino dish got its Spanish name much later than the origin of the dish. This simple but delectable dish has pork or chicken as its main ingredient simmering in soy sauce and vinegar. Lots of crushed garlic and black pepper lend flavour to it. This melt-in-mouth food item goes best with rice. Since every Filipino family has its own recipe for Adobo, the taste will differ from place to place.

Here is a traditional dish to sample on Philippines tour packages. Sinigang is a sour, savoury stew of vegetables and meat. Spinach, onion, ginger, eggplant, tomatoes and fish sauce are the main ingredients for the base of the stew. You may choose the meat addition according to your preference – fish, shrimp, pork etc.

This is a Filipino take on roast chicken. A speciality of residents of Visayan Islands, this roast chicken is very different from your usual fare. The marination for the pieces of chicken has ginger, lemongrass and calamansi juice among other things. Basted with annatto oil, the roast has a unique flavour and taste. Rice, liquid chicken fat and soy sauce dip make its accompaniments. This is a must-try food during Philippines tour packages.

Cassava Cake

You cannot wind up Philippines tour packages without tasting an authentic Filipino dessert. Cassava flour and coconut milk are the main ingredients in this baked recipe. Freshly grated cassava and coal-baking are the two factors that lend an enticing flavour to the dessert. Evaporated milk, condensed milk, eggs, butter and sugar are the other ingredients used. The topping is usually a garnish of grated cheddar cheese. The final result is a sweet, cheesy flavour with a chewy texture.

Things to Do on Your Philippines Trip

Revel in beach activities in boracay.

This popular tourist destination has one of the best beaches, the White Beach. Stretch out on a hammock and relax here with Philippines tour packages. Enjoy thrilling activities such as scuba diving, snorkelling, jet skiing and fly fishing. This 7 km long island is small enough for kids to explore.

Hike to Sagada Town

This is a small town located high up on the Cordillera mountains, which is unique for its traditions and surroundings. The sight of age-old coffins tied on the high limestone cliffs of the mountain is eye-catching and weird at the same time. On the scenic side, the cliffs have rice farm terraces cut on the slopes. Utilise Philippines tour packages to explore the waterfalls and hidden caves here.

Enjoy Adventure Pursuits in Coron Island

Being the base location for all nearby islands providing adventure and thrill, Coron is the tourist spot for those seeking an adrenaline rush. Indulge in the activities of mangrove kayaking, motorbiking, jungle trekking as well as island hopping from here. Trek to Mount Tapyas and enjoy the Occam Occam beach. Explore the underwater mountains of Barracuda Lake while on Philippines tour packages.

Swim Alongside Whale Sharks

Visit the Donsol Island for this extreme experience of interactions with whale sharks. These marine creatures are more gentle than sharks. They are larger and slow-moving too. This feat of swimming alongside whale sharks is only possible in this location. So, exploit Philippines tour packages to enjoy this unusual escapade.

Souvenirs to Look out For in the Philippines

Preserve the memories of your Philippines tour with various knick-knacks from the land. Pick unusual and unique commodities such as Banig fabric products made from dried leaves or Abaca products made from the local banana. You may want to own the Philippines conical hat, Salacot, or silky piña fabric made from pineapple fibres. You must buy the traditional bamboo jaw harp called Kubing.

Best time to travel to The Philippines

In recent times, the onset of the wet season in the Philippines has seen a subtle shift. It's now more prudent for visitors to consider arriving closer to mid-November rather than early October. Historically, the months of June through August were notorious for heavy rainfall and numerous typhoons. However, this pattern has evolved, with the dry season extending further and fewer rainy days recorded in these months. One notable draw for travelers to the northern Philippines during July and August is the breathtaking beauty of the rice terraces. At their zenith, they dazzle with a verdant hue, a testament to nature's splendor. Even in periods when they're submerged, these terraces captivate. The reflections of the sky in the water-filled terraces craft a mesmerizing mosaic of mirrors across the landscape. That said, the Philippines, with its tropical climate, is prone to unpredictable weather fluctuations. Whether it's sporadic rain showers or the occasional typhoon, it's essential for visitors to be prepared year-round. On the topic of typhoons: these are intense storms characterized by heavy rain and wind, typically lasting 3-4 days.

One Life Adventures

• Excellent - 7,869 reviews for Philippines tours

Loved this tour! Was the perfect mix of activities and group time and relaxation / solo time. The 2 day island hopping with overnight stay on the remote island is one of the best experiences I’ve ever had! Our tour guide cece was amazing too and made it really fun and involved everyone. Best snorkelling I’ve ever done too! Definitely recommending to friends and will be booking another one life tour in the future

The tour is great, we had a wonderful time. Just the accommodations were a bit poor, but the rest it compensate all. Great atmosphere with the group, and our guide was perfect. Lots of fun, laughing, great company. We couldn’t have ask for more. I would totally recommend this tour.

• Excellent - 15,415 reviews for Philippines tours

AJ our tour guide was amazing

I had such a fantastic time with the TruTravels group! Orty the guide was very friendly and welcoming! I would definitely go through booking a group tour with TruTravels again in the future!

INTRO Travel

• Excellent - 14,779 reviews for Philippines tours

This was one of the best trips I've done. The itinerary was the perfect mix of activities and down time & I felt, hit the key places I'd travel to if doing it fully solo. Whilst the tour itself and the people I met on it were a big part of me having the best time, it wouldn't have been the same without our tour leader Andri. He helped join the group together before we even started and made everyone feel included once we got there. He was the best mix of chilled and reliable, super knowledgeable and put the needs of the group first like the wonderfully caring human he is. We always knew what we were doing and when and it felt like he made the trip run so smoothly - I only had to worry about turning up and having a good time. If you're thinking about booking this DO IT (and pray you'll have Andri has your leader)

This was the most amazing trip ever. I was travelling as a solo female and this was my first stop on my first trip. The philippines in its self is beautiful, but i feel like this tour gave us the best experiences you can get! Our tour guide was also amazing (Andri Agassi), and made everyone feel welcomed and safe the whole trip. Would absolutely recommend this to anyone wanting to explore the Philippines and its beautiful waterfall, nightlife and adventures!

Wanderlands Travel

• Excellent - 3,975 reviews for Philippines tours

I had an absolutely unforgettable time!! It was the most perfect way for my travels to come to an end. I met so many amazing people, especially Jastwan our tour guide he was the best! Would recommend this tour to everyone :)

Overall I had an amazing time on this tour. It’s the perfect mix of adventure and relaxing beach days, although there is more of the latter towards the end of the trip. We had a fun group of people from all over the world and our guide, Jatswan, was wonderful. Would definitely recommend!

• Good - 56 reviews for Philippines tours

I thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Some of the other reviews had issues with the hotels, I actually thought they were quite quality locations. Each had an attentive front desk, hot water, and amenities were available for purchase. The tour itself packs a lot into a short time frame. I was tired at the end of it, but in a good way. I actually liked that the week ended with the town tour of Coron, because it was a little more low key and less active than the other days, which was necessary.

The entire trip was planned out pretty well, even though the details were not provided until each day prior to the events of the next one. The only problem with the tour was that the whaleshark excursion was canceled by the government (due to the holiday) and I wasn't notified until the day prior to that excursion about the cancelation. That was the main reason for booking this trip and was given the option of a very short island hopping experience being added instead. Unfortunately, it was short, and the same thing that we did the previous day, so definitely not what I wanted to be doing. There was little appreciation for notifying me sooner so I could have changed my plans, trip or even this tour that I paid a lot of money for. For the other two days of tours, I really enjoyed it, but that also means that I didn't get 1/3 of the tours that I paid for. No refunds. No future discounts. I know that the tour company must have known this information far sooner than the day prior as well. Overall, I don't want to give a bad review because they did well with what was provided, and can't control the government shutting down tours for a holiday, but I missed out on the main thing I booked this tour for with nothing to show for it

Uncharted Philippines

• Excellent - 6 reviews for Philippines tours

This tour was by far one of the most amazing experiences of my life. This was my first time travelling to a Southeast Asian country by myself but I felt safe and welcomed the entire time. I enjoyed observing beautiful rice terraces, meeting friendly village people, and learning lots about Ifugao culture from my tour guide. The opportunity to stay in a guest house in one of the small villages gave me the chance to truly appreciate the simplistic life of the village people. My tour guide, Marvin Bunaton was a wonderful guide to have. He gave me lots of valuable information about Ifugao culture and made sure I was safe the entire time. I am very lucky to have had him as a tour guide. I recommend this trip to everyone who loves hiking and beautiful sceneries! If I ever come back to the Philippines, I will bring my loved ones and do this tour all over again!

Although my trek was very challenging, I enjoyed every bit of it. My tour guide Jonathan was an amazing companion throughout my tour making me feel at home. Would definitely recommend it this tour of Banaue, Batad etc

Intrepid Travel

• Excellent - 11,702 reviews for Philippines tours

Excellent tour and Ellise our guide was simply outstanding.

Ian, our tour guide, was knowledgeable and made sure everything was running on time. We had some disruption to our water activities due to high waves in Palawan, but Ian and Michael pivoted the activities so they were still fun and engaging. I booked the tour to just relax and let someone else do the planning for me and it worked wonderfully. Would book again with Intrepid.

Abraham Tours Philippines

The trip was well worth it. All of the sights were beautiful and worth the long bus trips to and from Sagada and Banaue. It was a small group tour was only two couples. Fred was great as a tour guide. The Kamayan feast was very memorable and tasty at Bangaan on the last day. One of the best tours we’ve ever been on. Would definitely recommend it.

Amazing, rich tour with a lot packed in- serious value for money! Rohan was one of the best guides I have ever had, and he clearly loves this part of the Philippines!

Do You Travel

• Excellent - 99 reviews for Philippines tours

Our tour leader Jovain was very well organized and upbeat about our tour which kept it fun. Good stays and excellent food.

I recently embarked on a 10-day tour to Palawan, Philippines, and I can confidently say that it was an absolute breathtaking experience! From the moment we arrived until the bittersweet farewell, and everything from the stunning landscapes to the warm hospitality of the locals made this trip truly unforgettable. Joining a group of fellow travellers only added to the incredible experience, as we formed lifelong friendships and shared unforgettable memories together. The moment we set foot on Palawan, we were greeted by a professional and friendly tour guide named Jovian who made us feel right at home. Jovain was very attentive, informed and participated enthusiastically in all the activities. He was full of laughter and ensured our safety, happiness and wellbeing was a priority. Jovian along with the other tour guides had exceptional professionalism and dedication. They were not only knowledgeable about the history, culture, and ecology of Palawan but also genuinely cared about our well-being and enjoyment. Their enthusiasm and passion for their homeland were infectious, and they made sure we experienced the true essence of Palawan and the nightlife. Our itinerary was meticulously planned, ensuring we made the most of every single day. From the crystal-clear turquoise waters to the lush green landscapes, every corner of this paradise seemed like it was plucked straight out of a postcard. We explored the enchanting underground river in Puerto Princesa to unwinding on the pristine beaches of El Nido and its hidden lagoons, every activity was filled with awe and wonder. We stayed in a variety of accommodations, ranging from cozy beachfront tents and huts to cozy resorts, each offering its own unique charm. The staff at every location were warm, welcoming, and went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and memorable. Although the company could do a few more improvements in the choice of accomodations. One of the highlights of this tour was the delicious local cuisine. From indulging in fresh seafood feasts to savoring traditional Filipino dishes, our taste buds were constantly delighted. Our guides introduced us to local delicacies such as adobo, sisig and lechon. In conclusion, my 10-day tour to Palawan, Philippines, was an absolute 5-star adventure. The stunning natural beauty, incredible accommodations, mouthwatering cuisine, and the bonds formed with fellow travelers made this journey truly unforgettable. If you're seeking a paradise getaway filled with adventure, relaxation, and lifelong memories, I wholeheartedly recommend embarking on a tour to Palawan. You won't be disappointed!

Sturmfrei Travel and Tours

• Excellent - 1 review for Philippines tours

Travelled solo in a private guided tour organised through Strumfrei Travel and Tours, and I cannot recommend this company highly enough!! I would give them more than 5 stars if I could. Pre-travel email and mobile phone communication with both Tour Radar and Sturmfrei Travel and Tours was timely and responsive, and they were able to effectively manage my travel requirements and interests. Throughout the tour the Sturmfrei Travel and Tours guides and driver took great care to ensure the planned itinerary went ahead and met my expectations. Ultimately, though, the tour actually exceeded my expectations in so many ways: the region's amazing natural beauty was enhanced even further by both the Sturmfrei and local guides' general knowledge of Philippine culture and history, the Sturmfrei guides' efforts in ensuring my safety and enjoyment of the various physical activities I participated in, and my introduction to local Filipino foods and delicacies. The local Filipino people I met were just lovely and very friendly and added to my enjoyment of my northern travels. This trip was the highlight of my 2-week Philippines experience.

Big Dream Boatman

• Excellent - 210 reviews for Philippines tours

Exellent tour. Friendly crew, food was really great. Can recommend to everybody.

Team Violet was incredible!!! The tour was beyond any expectations and the crew, especially Jerome and Paul, were so attentive, warm and funny. The food was soooo yummy and I missed the chef’s cooking once I left! Plenty of food to choose from and they accomodated to all dietary requirements. The islands were stunning and loved our fire on the beach to get to know each other more. Our tour group ended up making a WhatsApp group chat after all of our bonding together and I think our strong bond was due to Team Violets efforts to make us feel safe, happy and cared for! 5 Stars!!!

Philippines Vacations, Tours & Travel Packages

Officially known as the Republic of the Philippines, the Philippines is an archipelago nation consisting of 7,641 islands in Southeast Asia. This may sound like a daunting number of islands, but only a few islands attract visitors on a Philippines vacation. The country is generally grouped into three main collections of islands: Luzon in the north, Visayas in the centre, and Mindanao in the south.

Over 100 million people live in the nation, making it one of the largest countries in the world. Manila, on the northern island of Luzon, is the nation’s capital, but the southern islands and their beaches and resorts attract most of the tourists.

Although Southeast Asian in origin, the country has a variety of Spanish and American influences due to it being a colony of both these nations throughout history. You’ll find that most people speak excellent English, while much of the local architecture reflects Spanish influences . Even the country’s name is taken from the Spanish King, Philip II.

What are the best island resorts to visit in the Philippines?

This is the most popular tourist destination in the country. Stretching only 7km long, Boracay is known for pristine beaches and the pleasures of an island paradise. White Beach has the most popular strip of hotels, restaurants, and shops, but you’ll find gorgeous resorts anywhere on the island. Boracay offers similar pleasures to Tahiti or Fiji but at more affordable prices.

More information on Boracay Vacations

This island offers the definition of untouched paradise. In the reaches of El Nido, known as the Philippines’ “Last Frontier,” you’ll find overwater bungalows that offer unrestricted access to the waters of the ocean. As well, if you want to go scuba diving, this is the place to be. The inland is also home to the karst rock formations of Puerto-Princesa Subterranean River National Park.

What are the top cities to visit in the Philippines?

Founded by Spain in 1571, the capital of Manila comes off as a busy, noisy city on first impression, but it has plenty of attractions beyond its brusque initial appearance. The sweeping seafront promenade of high-rise hotels leads to Old Manila, which culminates in Intramuros, an old walled city that blends Spanish and American colonial influences with indigenous cultural traditions that have thrived for around 3,000 years. Aside from Intramuros, the city’s best attractions are Rizal Park, which is a great spot to relax for an afternoon, and Chinatown, which is one of the oldest and largest of its kind in the world. You’ll find excellent and inexpensive shopping here.

The oldest and second-largest city in the country, Cebu City, known as the ‘Queen City of the South’ is full of historical treasures. Amid all of its commercial activity, Cebu features historical sites, various museums, and churches. You will find the Roman Catholic Basilica Minore del Santo Nino here as well as the imposing colonial fort, San Pedro. But Cebu is also known for its good beaches and resorts on Mactan Island. Cebu mixes urban attractions with rest and relaxation. It is also home to many festivals throughout the year.

Where are top things to see in the Philippines?

• Banaue Rice Terraces

This UNESCO World Heritage Site features some of the most gorgeous cultivated land in the world. Located on the north of Luzon, these terraces are carved onto the rocks on hilly mountain slopes and date back around 2,000 years. As you see the terraces cascade down the mountainside, you’ll be left speechless. There are few things as breathtaking to see on Philippines vacation packages. You’ll find the rice terraces featured in local currency and currently used by the local Ifugao people.

More information on Banaue Rice Terraces  

Chocolate Hills

Located in the province of Bohol, these 1,300 grassy hills turn a rich brown each dry season, transforming into a landscape of uniform brown hills that look like chocolate treats. Although they look too symmetrical to be nature, the Chocolate Hills are not manmade. Their geological origin is currently up for debate, with no consensus on their formation reached.

Mayon Volcano

Found on the southeastern tip of Luzon, Mayon Volcano is the largest volcano in the Philippines. Its perfectly-symmetrical cone shape makes it one of the most picturesque volcanoes in the world. However, it is still active, so be aware of current volcanic activity before visiting.

Puerto-Princesa Underground River

Located in the eponymous national park on the island of Palawan, this incredible underground river stretches through a landscape of karst rocks that recalls Ha Long Bay in Vietnam.

What is the best time to visit the Philippines?

The Philippines has a tropical climate that lasts all year round, so you’ll experience humidity and heat throughout the year. That being said, there are seasonal variations in the country. The wet season runs from May to October, while the dry season runs from November to April. The best time to visit is during the dry season, as you’ll forgo the heavy rains and overwhelming humidity of the wet season, although you won’t avoid heat in the Philippines. January and February are the coolest months, with temperatures averaging around 30°C, while March and April can get as hot as 34°C. When it’s not raining, you can expect lots of sunshine and high humidity. In the dry season, typhoons become a regular occurrence, with the earliest typhoons occurring in May. July and August are the wettest months and are best avoided.

What type of tours are available in the Philippines?

You can start with a stopover package in Manila and then combine it with a beach stay in Boracay, Palawan or Cebu. You can also add trips to Pagsanjan Falls, Corregidor Island and the Banaue Rice Terraces, the latter needing more time with a stopover.

Travel to the Philippines 

There are regular non-stop flights to Manila from Toronto, Vancouver, New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco. 

Transportation within the Philippines

The best way to get around on a Philippines vacation is by air. Most major destinations are served by air from Manila. There are no real rail services. Within the cities, taxis are plentiful and inexpensive. For the more adventurous, try a jeepney, which is a communal taxi which stops wherever the passengers want on a prescribed route.

Increased tourist exchanges eyed as Philippines, Qatar expand tourism ties

The Department of Tourism (DOT) is expecting increased tourist exchanges between the Philippines and Qatar as the two countries renewed their Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on Monday, April 22.

During the state visit of the Qatar Amir to the Philippines, Tourism Secretary Christina Garcia Frasco and State Minister for Foreign Affairs H.E. Soltan bin Saad Al-Muraikhi signed the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) at the Malacañang Palace, in the presence of President Marcos and Qatar Amir HH Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani, as one of the agreements exchanged.

“Fortifying tourism cooperation between the Philippines and Qatar by way of signing this Memorandum of Cooperation forges a stronger partnership for increased tourism exchanges between our nations,” Frasco said in a statement.

According to the MOU, the Philippines and Qatar have committed to collaboratively fostering tourist inflows into both nations, enhancing cooperation among travel and tourism agencies, and other entities to bolster tourist exchanges and promotions. Additionally, they aim to establish conducive conditions for the movement and communication of visiting tourists.

The DOT said it also solidifies the shared commitment of both countries to stimulate tourism investments and facilitate the exchange of organizational expertise, knowledge, statistics, and best practices. As such, it outlines plans to facilitate familiarization visits for media and tourism experts and to enhance the skills of tourism operators, employees, and specialists through seminars and specialized training sessions.

Regarding business events, the DOT said both countries have agreed to promote the holding of various business events including exhibitions and conferences attractive to tourists, promote cooperation between other relevant exhibitions and conferences, and organizing agencies; encourage the exchange of organizational experiences in the field of business events; encourage familiarization visits in the field of business; exchange legislations and regulations; and provide possible logistical support at the international level for hosting exhibitions and international conferences.

The tourism department said a joint working team between the Philippines and Qatar will be formed to undertake and set up the work program, execution, follow-up, and evaluation of the activities in line with the implementation of the provisions of the agreement.

Frasco described the MOU as a "significant step forward," unlocking the wealth of opportunities for growth as the two countries explore new avenues for collaboration, particularly in the aspects of tourism and business events.

Philippines’ renewed tourism collaboration with Qatar, she said, aligns with the country’s approved National Tourism Development Plan (NTDP) 2023-2028, where Meetings, Incentives, Conventions, and Exhibitions (MICE) is identified as a strategic tourism product essential in the actualization of our President’s vision for a tourism powerhouse in Asia.

“Aside from being blessed with natural wonders and rich cultural experiences, the Philippines is home to world-class MICE facilities, not to mention the country’s biggest strengths – our Filipino workers who are always willing to go the extra mile to extend warmth and hospitality to our guests. Cooperation in the field of tourism presents significant opportunities for Qatar and the Philippines to leverage each other's strengths and jointly expand our respective MICE offerings, contributing to our region's and globally recognized MICE offerings,” said Frasco.

The agency said it has been actively enhancing its Muslim-friendly and halal tourism offerings to align with the National Tourism Development Plan's goal of promoting diversified tourism products.

In June 2023, the Philippines received recognition as the Emerging Muslim-friendly Destination of the Year (Non-OIC) at the esteemed Halal in Travel Global Summit 2023.

Per the data of the DOT, the Philippines welcomed 10,438 visitors from Qatar in 2023. As of April 20, 2024, visitor arrivals for this year have already reached 3,784 from January to April.

China Is Committed to Resolving Maritime Disputes Through Talks, Official Says

QINGDAO, China (Reuters) -China remains committed to resolving maritime disputes with other countries through dialogue but will not allow itself to be "abused," a top military official said at a meeting of senior foreign naval officials in the port city of Qingdao on Monday.

The sea should not be an arena where countries can flex their "gunboat muscles", added Zhang Youxia, vice chairman of the Central Military Commission and China's second-highest-ranking military official.

"Reality has shown that those who make deliberate provocations, stoke tensions, or support one side against another for selfish gains will ultimately only hurt themselves," Zhang said during the opening ceremony of the Western Pacific Naval Symposium at the upscale St Regis hotel.

The comments were an apparent reference to growing tensions in the South China Sea, where Washington treaty ally Manila is in a fraught standoff with Beijing over the strategic waterway, a potential flashpoint for U.S-China relations.

Zhang also told the gathered delegates that "carrying out maritime containment, encirclement and island blockades will only plunge the world into a vortex of division and turbulence."

The event overlaps with annual U.S.-Philippines large-scale joint military drills, which begin on Monday and will be held outside Philippine territorial waters for the first time.

Tensions are particularly high around the Second Thomas Shoal in the South China Sea, where Manila has accused Beijing of "harassment", including the use of water cannons against Philippine vessels.

The symposium is a rare opportunity for countries with opposing regional interests to exchange views. Pacific Fleet Commander Admiral Stephen Koehler is attending from the United States. Other delegations include Australia, France, India, Russia and Britain.

The Philippines did not attend despite being a member nation of the forum.

"This is a very good opportunity to hold bilateral talks with each navy - not only on AUKUS, but on broader maritime topics," said Captain Takuo Kobayashi, a senior official with the Japanese naval delegation. "The Chinese Navy are building up their muscles in the South China Sea quickly, so I'm paying a lot of attention to the Chinese Navy's developments."

Participants will hold closed-door talks on topics such as updating the Code for Unplanned Encounters at Sea, a set of guidelines meant to de-escalate tensions between militaries at sea.

They will also vote on the creation of a new working group on unmanned systems with the People's Liberation Army Navy as the coordinator, according to the forum agenda.
