The guide and driver (Rey and Mat) made the holiday memorable with their knowledge and experience of the Philippines. I enjoyed walking along the rice terraces, where I fell into one of them and was rescued by Rey. I also enjoyed walking up 2 volcanos, experiencing the effects of earth tremors, swimming from a log raft, attending a wedding; and enjoying the different food. The other holiday makers were also great fun and well travelled adventurers which enhanced the holiday.

tasted and a truly unique experience!

There's so many! I was bowled over every time we visited a new temple. The sheer scale of them and the preservation is breathtaking. Our guide brought the
sites to life so you could get a glimpse into what it may have been like to be alive during those times. Hot air ballooning over the Nile is something I will also
never forget.
Tips?
Be prepared for hecticness. There is little time to relax so you may wish to add extra time at the end but it's totally worth... (more)Katie Morant
