The latest word on the street about Philippines holidays:

Our time in the Philippines was amazing. The itinerary was perfect and it was such a reassurance to know you would take care of everything. The tour guides were so friendly, helpful and knowledgeable with that real Philippine spirit of hospitality. My children enjoyed everything and we had so much fun snorkeling and kayaking in beautiful clear waters! Thank you for showing us part of this beautiful country. 

Martin Emmett Philippines

We just wanted to say a very big thank you for the amazing Philippines holiday we have just returned from. The itinerary was fantastic packing in all the highlights while leaving ample beach time! Plus it all ran smoothly, with wonderful guides and we enjoyed every activity we did. This really has been a memorable trip.

Sam Williams Philippines

Just to let you know we had an amazing time in the Philippines! It’s difficult to choose highlights as everything was fantastic. The Philippines are beautiful, rich in history with amazing food and wonderful people. Eric (our guide) was brilliant and went above and beyond. Thank you!
