Family Getaway 5 Days El Nido Vacation Package

The Clipper Hotel Makati 3

Welcome to Manila! Your tour begins with a 6 pm welcome meeting at your central hostel in the Makati City. When the formalities out of the way, head to a nearby restaurant for an included dinner with your fellow travelers. Let your local leader take the reins when it comes to ordering, then feast on a selection of regional dishes served family style. Once you/’ve lined your stomach, venture out to popular nightlife district Poblacion. Once regarded as a fairly seedy area, Poblacion has undergone a makeover in recent years and emerged as a hub for bars, art and eclectic dining.

La Casita Mercedes 3

Dusk; Birds of Prey; After Lambana /– what are these? All great books (well, one is a graphic novel) by Filipino authors. Why are we mentioning them? Because you/’ve got a 10-hour drive ahead, which is a great opportunity to crack one open. If you get carsick, or just hate reading, you can always sit back and admire the countryside views, listen to a podcast or catch some Zs. You/’ll stop in a local restaurant for lunch en route, arriving in Manila in the late afternoon. Check in to your accommodation, then head out for an optional dinner with your leader and travel mates.

El Nido Royal Palm Inn 3

Check out of your accommodation and catch a direct flight to El Nido (AKA paradise), which should take under 2 hours. Enjoy a day that/’s as clear as the waters in El Nido/’s reefs to do whatever the heck you/’d like. An island-hopping adventure is included tomorrow, so today you might just want to relax. Maybe walk or hire a bike and ride to Las Cabanas beach. Keep in mind it will take over an hour if you want to go on foot, so pack water and shield yourself from the sun! For dinner it/’s hard to go wrong with seafood, so maybe ask your leader for a restaurant recommendation.

El Nido Royal Palm Inn 3

This morning head out on a full day of snorkeling and island hopping. Witness jagged limestone islands, rocky coves, virgin rain forest and white sandy beaches. The snorkeling is just as spectacular, revealing beautiful coral and many different species of fish. After an included lunch, venture to the area/’s spectacularly clear lagoons. Your evening is then free to do as you wish.

Your tour comes to an end this morning, but that doesn/’t mean your adventure has to. El Nido is captivating, and plenty of travelers decide to extend their time here.
