Natural Wonders Of The Philippines

Experience overview

Blessed with a tropical climate, lush green forests, and thousands of miles of white-sand beaches, the Philippines present travelers with an abundance of natural wonders. This tour takes you from rice terraces cascading down the northern mountains to the tropical hideaway of the Amanpulo resort. Your journey begins in Manila, where you are introduced to the country's Spanish and Catholic heritage. Drive to Banaue, home to the Ifugao tribe, and the site of the magnificent Banaue Rice Terraces, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Spend two nights here, before traveling to the cavernous burial grounds in Sagada, a small town sequestered amongst limestone pinnacles, pine forests, and waterfalls. Your next stop is the summer capital of Baguio, a popular cool mountain city. Fly back to Manila, where you will take a charter flight direct to Pamalican Island, the private island site of the luxurious Amanpulo resort. Spend two unforgettable nights at a beach or hillside casita. Seven square kilometers of coral reef rim Pamalican, with a lagoon running around more than half the island. Beyond are sandbanks and a channel where whales, dolphins and sea cows sometimes stray. The Amanpulo offers a full range of <!-- [if gte mso 9]> <w:LsdException Locked="false" Priority="46" Na

Not only were we treated royally and terribly spoiled, but we felt we got a sense of the Japanese people, their history and their culture. It is a trip that we will always find joy in remembering. Thank you so much for all you did to make it such a memorable time for us.

We had no idea what a Microlight was going into our honeymoon, and seeing it when we arrived admittedly made us weak in the knees… But it ended up being the highlight of Zambia for us and we can’t imagine experiencing the magnitude of Victoria Falls any other way!

It was a life changing experience and we couldn't be happier to have done it, learned so much, seen so much, and escaped from work for a couple of weeks!

If you don't have a friend overseas, Absolute Asia is like the next best thing. We found their guides so friendly and knowledgeable, that we even traded recipes and photos with a couple of them after the trip.

The level of service and the itinerary were all spot on. I left feeling that within a two week time period I had seen and experienced the best of Kenya!

The planning process was excellent. My biggest concern at the outset was a lack of deep conversation from other agencies. My expectation was that someone would take the time commensurate with the cost and Jessica did exactly that

We brought our two grandchildren, ages 12 and 14, to South Africa to fulfill a long-held dream of ours. Attention was paid by Daniela and her colleagues to every detail and every nuance of our trip, and after all of our raves, it’s inevitable that we shall have to come back with our other seven!

You know, when expectations are sky high, as they were for this trip, there is a very high risk of disappointment. Still, this trip exceeded our expectations. It was truly an incredible, awesome experience. Thanks again for your expertise in putting together this trip. We’ll most definitely go to Africa again in the future.
AMAZING experience. There is no way that we would’ve had the same experience if we planned this trip ourselves. Absolute Asia treated us better than we would’ve treated ourselves!
