Dive into the heart of the Philippines with a 4 Nights Backpacker Edition Itinerary that seamlessly merges adventure and relaxation. Feel the rhythm of life in bustling Manila before retreating to the idyllic shores of Boracay, where azure waters and vibrant sunsets await.

Highlights of the Destination

  • Manila's Intramuros: Discover the city's storied past within the walls of Intramuros, featuring Spanish colonial architecture and the majestic San Agustin Church.

  • Makati's Nightlife: Dive into the vibrant nightlife of Makati, with exclusive VIP access to top clubs and rooftop bars, ensuring a night filled with fun and excitement.

Travel Tips for the Philippines

  • Local Currency: The Philippine Peso (PHP) is essential, and it's advisable to keep cash for smaller establishments and transport.
  • Dress Code: Light, breathable clothing is ideal due to the tropical climate, but bring a light jacket for cooler evenings.
  • Transportation: Use local jeepneys or tricycles for an authentic travel experience—it's cheap, fun, and a great way to meet locals.
  • Health Precautions: Stay hydrated and be mindful of food choices; enjoy local cuisine but ensure it's from reputable eateries.
