ATOL Protected ABTA — Travel With Confidence

Eight days of island life

Aqua water, coral reefs, turtles and a week you'll talk about for years. We start in Cebu, share a lechon lunch with locals and swim through the Sardine Run in Moalboal. Then it's canyoneering to Kawasan Falls, before Boracay's white sand, paraw sailing at sunset and a boat party to finish. Head east. You won't be disappointed.

Hello, Cebu

Welcome to the Philippines. Yes, it's hot. Check in, cool off, then meet your group and your Local Legend, the person you'll soon wonder how you ever travelled without. This evening we head out for dinner together and get to know each other over a piña colada, or five.
