I have now completed 4 intro tours, and each trip just gets better! We have just finished the Philippines tour, and the expeditions are out of this world, but what made this trip stand out most was our tour guide Zoe! she always went above and beyond, to make sure everyone was catered for and having the best time. Zoe was full of knowledge and ideas, and had more patience than I thought was possible. I would redo this trip all over again if possible with Zoe! I highly highly recommend this trip if you;re an adrenaline seeker, and looking to have a once in a life time trip

Just wrapped up the most incredible 17-day tour through the Philippines, and it exceeded every expectation!
The itinerary was packed with unforgettable experiences — island hopping, snorkeling with turtles, cliff jumping, kayaking, and so much more. But what truly made the trip unforgettable was the people… and one person in particular:
Massive shout-out to Jay, our tour guide! 🙌
Jay was absolutely legendary — super friendly, organized, and always full of energy. He brought the whole group together like a family from day one, and his love for the Philippines was contagious. Whether it was teaching us local phrases, finding the best street food, or making sure every detail of the trip ran smoothly, Jay went above and beyond in every way.
Can’t wait for my next adventure with this team!

Iconic sights and in-depth adventures with a local Trip Leader.
Blissful white-sand beaches. Palm trees strung with hammocks. Eye-popping jungle scenery. The Philippines = PARADISE. And this epic adventure around the country’s Palawan region is the stuff that dreams are made of. Think: lazy days spent island hopping, sunset yoga sessions, stargazing on the sand. Ready to pull up a deck chair and grab yourself a fresh coconut? Let’s GO.
Having been a previous customer for INTRO, I was so excited to be part of their first trip to the Philippines and it definitely did not disappoint. As always from start to finish, the Group Leaders were there to help with anything and everything and the trip itself was just mind blowing. THE BEST way to travel a country and since doing my first group tour with INTRO over 3 years ago now I will never travel any other way.
My favourite activities were the 3 day boat expedition from Coron to El Nido which was just incredible, the waterfalls in Siquijor and all of the snorkelling!
The accommodation was comfortable and better than I expected as it was on all other INTRO tours. Already looking forward the next trip.
