STEP OFF THE BEATEN PATH 20-DAY

THE PHILIPPINES

STEP OFF THE BEATEN PATH 20-DAY
WHAT SEPARATES THE PHILIPPINES FROM OTHER EXOTIC DESTINATIONS IN THE WORLD IS THAT TOURISTS AND TRAVELERS HAVE YET TO PENETRATE BEYOND THE SURFACE LEVEL OF THIS COUNTRY . THERE ARE CERTAIN LOCATIONS WHERE TOURIST INDUSTRIES HAVE BEEN SET UP , BUT THERE IS STILL SO MUCH TO BE EXPLORED AND DISCOVERED . TAKING BOAT RIDES IN THE PHILIPPINES BRINGS YOU BACK TO WHAT EARLY EXPLORERS MUST HAVE FELT DISCOVERING A GREAT NEW FRONTIER THAT SPARKLED WITH BEAUTY .
You ’ ll get to visit some of the most beautiful and least visited beaches in the world during our 20-day trip through the western part of the Philippines . This trip
also includes a visit to one of the new 7 Wonders of the World : the Puerto Princesa Underground River located in the spectacular area of Palawan , where almost half of the trip will be spent . Palawan is a remarkable archipelago of 1,780 islands
“ ITS PRISTINE TROPICAL BEAUTY WILL HAVE YOU WIDE-EYED ”
that have been explored very little and its pristine tropical beauty will have you wide-eyed the entire time you ’ re there . But this trip isn ’ t all peaceful isolation , as a visit to the Philippines ’ most famous island , Boracay , brings the quintessential beach paradise with plenty of great parties to this 20-day trip that is a constant source of fun , amazement and adventure !
THE PHILIPPINES IS LIKE NOWHERE ELSE . WITH 7107 ISLANDS , THE AMOUNTS OF STUNNING DESERTED BEACHES ARE ENDLESS . AND MY FAVORITE PART IS THAT EVERYONE IN THE PHILIPPINES SPEAKS ENGLISH , SO YOU CAN REALLY IMMERSE YOURSELF FULLY IN THE CULTURE . I AM TRULY IN LOVE WITH THE COUNTRY . — MELISSA , TRIP LEADER .
