    Pristine beaches, historic cities and sublime street food

    The sheer variety of landscapes and experiences across the Philippines makes this archipelago nation exceptionally varied. By the very nature of its geography, its plentiful white-sand beaches are a major draw, with over-water villas offering a chance to snorkel straight from your room in luxurious coastal resorts.

    Reefs teem with colourful fish, octopuses and seahorses, and boat trips skim the coastline in search of whale sharks, giant manta rays and sea turtles. But beyond the beaches lies a country with myriad personalities. The frenetic urban sprawls of Manila and Cebu City offer traditional jeepney rides, a thrilling way to see it all. While the bustling jungles of Bohol and the swamps, rivers and waterfalls of sedate Siargao are a fantastical place to get away from it all.

    Fragrant Filipino food abounds throughout this country, with sweet, sour and salty flavours coming together to create moreish dishes designed to be shared. Our expert local guides can recommend where to try these delicious meals, typically at street food stalls in the city or over fresh fish on the coast.

    With over 7,000 enticing islands, the Philippines has adventures for all kinds of travellers, be it hiking, diving or simply relaxing on pristine beaches, so get in touch with our team of expert travel designers to start planning today.

    A word from one of our experts

    The Philippines is so vast and varied, and it has some of the best beaches in Asia - perfect for anyone seeking some winter sun. The snorkelling here is a real delight, with so many mesmerising creatures swimming beneath the surface, and the street food in Cebu is seriously delicious - don't miss out on trying lechon, a roast pork dish served on banana leaves.

    When to visit

    The best time to visit the Philippines is between December and April. Skies are usually clear and the seas are calm, ideal for island hopping. The country enjoys warm weather all year round.

    Travelling out of season, from June to November, is a chance to see the islands and beaches at their quietest. There may be occasional rain, and typhoons are more likely between July and September.

    Our local guides and teams on the ground will always plan carefully around the weather. They’ll adjust your trip where needed to keep things running smoothly.
