On route, your guide will briefly introduce the city and detail your arrangements for the coming days. After checking in to your hotel you will have the remainder of the day free to relax or explore.

  • Today, you will join your local guide for an alternative tour around one of the most historical parts of Manila. You will saddle a bamboo bike for a cycling trip around Intramuros, a well-preserved fortified area in the heart of the capital. You will learn about the early beginnings of the Philippines and heroes such as Jos茅 Rizal. At the end of your tour, you will be taken back to your hotel, where you will have the rest of the day at leisure.

  • This morning is free to relax or explore at your leisure. You may wish to use the hotel's large pool area or perhaps take a walk to nearby Rizal Park and the National Museum. This afternoon, you will accompany your guide to the Chinatown district, otherwise known as Binondo. This area is famed for its variety of cuisine and many popular local eateries. Your guide will introduce you to many of the staple Filipino dishes and a few exotic foods. Having the chance to walk around and dine in the local restaurants is an informative and authentic experience. If you are still hungry, later on you may wish to try out one of Manila's many top restaurants some of which we can confidently recommend.

  • After breakfast, you will be collected from your hotel and taken to the airport in time for your flight to Bohol. Upon arrival on Bohol you will be met by your local guide and taken to your hotel. On route, your guide will give you a short introduction to the island and detail your arrangements for the coming days. After checking in to your beachside accommodation you will have the rest of the day free to relax or explore at your own leisure. The day can be spent sunbathing on the beach or enjoying some drinks in the open-air bar and restaurant.

  • Today, you will explore the highlights of Bohol, including the beautiful Chocolate Hills, local markets and Tarsier Sanctuary. Time permitting you will have the chance to meet the man behind the tarsier project, Carlito the Tarsier Man.
