    Hi there,

    4-6 of us are hoping to visit the Philippines (from Brisbane Australia) from the 10th to 23rd of December – 14 days, 13 nights. We want to visit the following places:

    CORON
    – lagoon tours (with sea kayaking)
    – island tours
    – firefly night tour

    We also heard that we can do expeditions from Coron to El Nido, stopping and camping at secluded beaches and locations. We would also love to do this for 3days/2nights.

    EL NIDO
    – tour A & C
    – ziplining

    CEBU/MOALBOAL
    – whale sharks (snorkelling with them)
    – tumalog & aguinid falls
    – island hopping
    – osmena peak
    – cayoneering
    – Kawasan falls

    Could you please give us a quote for how much this would be? One quote with flights from Brisbane and one for just the tour in the Philippines (no international flights).

    Also, we would like to do the tour by ourselves (privately aswell) however have transportation and the private tours organised – so no tour guide.

    We are looking for budget to midrange accommodation.

    Thanks very much!

      Hey Katrina and thank you for your comment. Everything you requested is possible, our agents will contact you soon with an offer.

      Few notes though, which might help others reading this page:

      • The Full expedition between Coron and El Nido takes 5 days and 4 nights to complete. This is an organized group and no private tours are allowed. There is also a shorter tour available – 2 nights and private like you asked, but you’ll only manage to complete part of the trail.
      • When in Palawan, wouldn’t you like to try out some diving as well? it’s one of the best places to dive, and perfect for beginners. We can easily incorporate it into the island hopping tours you requested.
      • It might be better to drop Aguinid Falls – it’s a bit unrelated to anything else in your plan. It’s possible to squeeze it in if you really want to, but it seems like a shame to spend half a day on a single attraction. That is especially true when you already have both Kawasan and Tumalog Falls, which fits your itinerary much better.

    Hello,

    My daughter and I would like to join a tour for the Banaue rice terraces, Batad on November 7, 2019
    How many nights should we do this?
    I will be in Vigan by Nov. 6, is this feasible coming from Vigan to Batad.
    Can you give me 2 quotes:
    1 . leaving Vigan
    2. Leaving Manila
    Is it advisable to fly or drive?

      Hi Beth,

      You can do it with a minimum of 2 nights stay, doesn’t matter if from Vigan or Manila.
      You’ll arrive to Banaue too late to take the tour on the same day anyway, so must spend the night and start the trek the following day.

      Once the trek is done (on the same day, unless you opt for multi-day treks) then you can either spend the night in Banaue and leave on the following day, or take the night bus immediately back to Manila.

      Flying is possible from Manila only. However, it isn’t advisable as it doesn’t shorten travel time by a meaningful amount (7 hours instead of 9) and it is more expensive and prone to errors such as delays or cancellations.

      Once you decide on the preferred route, please send an inquiry here. We’ll be happy to give you a quote.
