Outing Highlights
Bohol’s countryside and river systems
The itinerary frames the trip with Bohol’s signature sights—Chocolate Hills, the Manmade Forest and a shared Loboc River cruise with buffet lunch—an unhurried introduction to the islands’ inland topography and culture.
El Nido’s hidden beaches and limestone lagoons
El Nido’s tours visit Big Lagoon, Secret Lagoon, Secret Beach and seven-commandos beach—crystalline water, steep karst walls and snorkeling around isolated islets form the trip’s most dramatic marine sequences.
Boracay’s private islands and snorkel sites
The Boracay leg focuses on private island hopping—Puka Beach, Balinghai Beach and snorkeling sites like Coral Garden and Crocodile Island—ending the package on powder-soft white sand with options for private-access coves.
