Explore the hustle and bustle of dynamic Manila, while soaking up the sun and the atmosphere in the beaches of Cebu and explore the natural wonders of Bohol in this Philippines tour
“I just returned from the Best of the Philippines tour with Indus Travels, and honestly, it was one of the most refreshing and rewarding trips I’ve taken with my girlfriends. We wanted a mix of culture, nature, and beach time — and this tour delivered on all fronts.
Our adventure began in Manila, where we got a taste of the city’s vibrant energy and complex history. Exploring the historic Walled City of Intramuros and learning about the American influence on the Philippines was fascinating, and a great start to our journey.
From the urban buzz, we moved on to laid-back island life in Cebu, where pristine beaches, warm sunshine, and the laid-back resort vibe gave us the perfect chance to relax and unwind. The scenic ferry ride to Bohol was gorgeous too — crystal-clear waters and that tropical island feeling made it feel like we were truly escaping everyday life.
The day we spent in Bohol was definitely a highlight. Cruising the lush Loboc River, spotting tiny tarsiers at a local sanctuary, and seeing the surreal Chocolate Hills up close was unforgettable. It was a day packed with natural beauty, and the local guides made every stop engaging and informative.
What I appreciated most was how well-paced the itinerary was — we weren’t rushed, but we also saw so much of what makes the Philippines special. From cultural insights and historic sites to breathtaking landscapes and tropical relaxation, it felt like a well-rounded experience that hit all the best notes.
The logistics were smooth too. Flights, transfers, comfortable accommodations, and breakfast every day took away a lot of the usual travel stress, letting us just focus on enjoying every moment.
Overall, this trip was a perfect blend of adventure and relaxation with friends. If you’re looking to explore the Philippines’ beauty without the hassle of planning every detail yourself, this tour is absolutely worth it!”
“Tour in traffic congested Manila was a nightmare, best part of the tour was the lunch and shopping. A Venue hotel was very dirty and air conditioner spits out dust and more Dust. Costabello in Cebu resort was very clean and food great. The tour in Bohol was outstanding, loved the Chocolate Hills.”
