Description of Philippines small group tours
Combine twelve days exploring Luzon with three nights of relaxing on a beach in Bohol: the perfect introduction to the fascinating Philippines.
Your adventure on Luzon starts with Manila and its old town. Next you’ll fly to Laoag in the north and then head back south via Sagada, Banaue’s extraordinary rice terraces and then down to Mabalacat, where you’ll explore an active volcano. Returning to Manila, you’ll fly to Alona beach on Bohol for three nights of snorkel, scuba and sunbathing.
A highlight on this trip is spending time with local people. You’ll spend time meeting the Indigenous people who farm the 2,000 year old rice terraces of Banaue. Another highlight comes at Mabalacat, staying on a family-run farm, where you’ll find yourself surrounded by nature.
This small group trip moves you through Luzon at a moderate pace, and features a couple of easy walks. You’re led by local guides, travelling by minibus, and occasionally 4x4 jeepneys – iconic Filipino transport. All in all, it’s a great way to explore the northern Philippines.

We aim to visit this ancient marvel of engineering and the hardy people that work here in a responsible manner, employing the services of an expert local guide known and respected within the community. This brings an authentic experience ensuring local interaction is positive and genuine.
