Philippines 10-Day Tours and Trips

AJ truly is the best. He's so passionate about his home country, informative, kind, friendly and fun. Everything he organised was smooth, on time and he dealt with everyone's questions and queries efficiently and successfully. He also remained calm during quite a bad medical emergency and I knew he'd be there for whatever I needed, but he kept others safe, calm and made sure they continued to have fun whilst he looked after me, which must have been a hard thing to accomplish, but he did it with his usual cheery smile and warm nature. I'm sure that AJ would be a fantastic tour guide anywhere in the world because he's knowledgeable, enthusiatic and represents the team in the most positive light. You can tell he really loves being a tour guide - the company is very lucky to have him!

Dom was an excellent tour guide and always kept us in order. Places we stayed in were good and the island hopping and areas we visited were great. Views for daysssss. Castaways was awesome especially meeting the the local people. However the mini van drives between Puerto Princessa, Port Barton and El Nido were not so good. Roads bumpy and going fast, making me nauseous. Me and Dom asked drivers to go a bit slower but they didn’t. Not bad thing per say but maybe a little more info on local culture and history would make the experience more fulfilling.

This is my third trip with this travel specialist and I can honestly say that Gema has been my favourite guide that I have ever had. She was the highlight of the trip and her kindness, enthusiasm, willingness to go above and beyond and efficiency shone through. She is a true asset to the agency and anyone who is on a tour with her is truly very lucky! There was a point where I didn’t feel very well at all but as soon as I confided in Gema, her reassurance and helpful tips and offer to take me to the medical centre immediately made me feel at ease! Luckily I got better without any medical intervention but I massively appreciated her care and concern in that moment. Her recommendations outside of the itinerary (eg. Food spots etc) were amazing too! Thank you Gema!

Anj was absolutely faultless - not just as a tour guide, but as a person! Anj was extremely knowledgeable about her home country and was really informative about the culture and all the areas we visited. Anj was very good at reading the group and always showed compassion and empathy for everyone in the group - especially when some of us were feeling ill. When it came to poor weather conditions and people feeling ill, Anj was excellent at getting a contingency plan ready just in case - even if we didn't end up needing it. In terms of organising the social events, Anj, again, was very good at reading the group and was able to plan evenings around the mood of the group. When moving off to our next locations, she went out of her way to help us plan our next journey. We all really enjoyed her company; her laugh was infectious, she was such a genuine, humble person with a great sense of humour. Anj is a lovely person and she without doubt made our Philippines experience so much better. I am so thankful that we had her as our guide - especially around Christmas and New Year, as she was able to make our time together so special. We are so pleased and we really hope we see her again one day. The best guide we have had (in the half a dozen or so we've had!).

The Philippines is such a stunning place and I am glad to have gone on this trip and explored the country. I was glad to do it with a company that knew so much and I felt safe the whole time which was very important to me.

Amazing: I felt welcomed the whole time. We got to know some locals, traditions and a lot of the culture and wonderf beaches. The activities were just perfect! We had a lot of free time, which was great. I never thought I could enjoy a guided tour that much! I met so many kind poeple and it was so easy to get along with everything. Thank you so much!
