    • January 6: Underground River Tour
    • January 7: Land transfer to El Nido
    • January 8: El Nido Tour A

    What hotel do you use in Manilla ? Or do you have a suggestion for our stay before and after the tour. Thanks in advance.
  • 

    CTPH TOUROperator•Written January 2026

    I'd be happy to help with hotel suggestions for your stay in Manila before and after the tour.
    
    For convenience, especially with your flights, we usually recommend hotels near NAIA Terminal 3. Here are a few great and comfortable options that many of our guests prefer:
    
    • Savoy Hotel Manila – A popular mid-range hotel in Newport City, very close to NAIA Terminal 3, known for its comfort and convenience.
    • Belmont Hotel Manila – A stylish and well-rated option just across from the airport with good amenities and easy access.
    • Holiday Inn Express Manila – Newport World Resorts (IHG) – A reliable international brand offering modern rooms and a very convenient location.
    
    These hotels are ideal for short stays and make airport transfers smooth and stress-free.

  El Nido → Coron transfer (Day 5): The itinerary shows a ferry transfer from El Nido to Coron, but under 'Flights Included' it lists a flight from El Nido to Coron. Could you please confirm which one is included — ferry or flight?

    Manila hotel (Day 7): The itinerary lists St Giles Hotel Makati for Day 7, with the tour ending on Day 8 after the Manila guided tour. Would it be possible to switch the Day 7 hotel to 1898 Hotel Colonia?
  • 

    CTPH TOUROperator•Written December 2025

    The transfer from El Nido to Coron is by ferry, as this is currently the only available and standard route between the two destinations.
  • 

    CTPH TOUROperator•Written December 2025

    For Day 8, you'll need to check out before being picked up for the Intramuros + Lakbay Museo Tour. After the tour, the Driver/Guide will transfer you to your preferred hotel or location, as long as it's within Makati or Manila—so transferring directly to 1898 Hotel Colonia afterward will be possible.

    Is there an additional cost from Clark to Manila? Would it be the same day? I'm assuming it be best to try to book a flight back to Los Angeles later on the day?
  • 

    CTPH TOUROperator•Written December 2025

    There will be no additional payment for the private transfer from Clark to Manila - it's already included in your package. And yes, it would be best to book a later flight back to Los Angeles on the same day since the transfer from Clark to Manila usually takes 2-3 hours, depending on traffic.

  When is the best time to visit with clear skies n blue seas,May or April.hw many ppl in the group max

  Tour Details
  • 

    CTPH TOUROperator•Written October 2025

    Great question—both April and May are part of the dry season in the Philippines, so you can expect plenty of clear skies and beautiful blue seas during either month. April tends to be a bit sunnier and less humid, but May is also wonderful before the rainy season starts. As for the group size, it usually depends on the specific tour or activity you're interested in, but most groups are kept small to ensure a more personalized experience. If you let me know which tour you're looking at, I can give you the exact number.

    Yes, it is possible to replace your flight from Coron to Manila with one to Davao. Kindly note, however, that there are no direct flights from Coron (Busuanga) to Davao. The route would be Coron (Busuanga) – Cebu – Davao with a layover in Cebu.

    No need to worry about participant numbers. This tour is confirmed regardless of the number of travelers, so your trip will proceed as planned once you book and pay.
  • 

    CTPH TOUROperator•Written October 2025

    We warmly welcome solo travelers! While the group composition may vary, the setup ensures a wonderful balance: you'll have your own personal space, while still sharing transfers and activities with a larger group. This creates a dynamic mix of travelers, and many of our solo guests truly enjoy the sense of community that comes with it.

    I see the tour is partially guided. What does that mean? Also I mentioned I was travelling solo - is there a scenario where I would be the only person following the itinery beginning November17th? That is what if other people don't sign up?

    CTPH TOUROperator•Written October 2025

    For this tour, there won't be a physical guide accompanying you throughout the entire journey. However, a local guide will be present during specific activities included in your tour package. This is a guided experience delivered through WhatsApp, where you'll receive daily instructions, updates, and key details to help you navigate your itinerary smoothly. The tour is confirmed regardless of the number of participants on your selected date. The group composition may vary throughout the experience, offering a dynamic and diverse atmosphere.
