About this trip
Twelve days across Palawan and the Visayas, covering a lot of the Philippines' best-known island scenery in one go. You start in El Nido and Coron, move on to Cebu and Bohol, then finish with Siquijor and Dumaguete.
The trip is built around water — lagoons, coral reefs, shipwrecks, and island-hopping feature most days, alongside a few cultural stops and wildlife encounters on land. It's an easy-paced, partially guided group tour, so there's room to explore some of it at your own speed.
What you'll do
- Island-hop the lagoons and limestone cliffs of El Nido
- Snorkel or dive WWII shipwrecks in Coron
- Visit Magellan's Cross in Cebu
- See the Chocolate Hills and Philippine tarsiers in Bohol
- Swim with turtles and spot dolphins off Balicasag Island
- Snorkel with sea turtles at Apo Island near Dumaguete
- Covers five distinct island regions in 12 days, so expect regular transfers between destinations
- Water-based itinerary — good swimming and snorkelling ability will help you get the most out of it
- Partially guided, so some sections are more independent than others
