About this trip
Eleven days through the Philippines, built for people travelling solo but who'd rather not do it alone. You get a small group, a private room throughout, and a route that mixes cities, jungle, and islands rather than just beach time.
You start in Manila with a food-focused introduction to the city, then head inland to spend time with an Indigenous community involved in reforestation work, and off-road into Avatar Gorge, a canyon carved into the jungle. From there it's on to Palawan, gliding through the Puerto Princesa underground river before finishing with two days of snorkeling around El Nido's islands.
It's a trip that works well over Christmas and New Year if you'd rather be somewhere warm with new people than at home.
