We had a really good time on our visit to the Philppines, utilising a slightly modified "Phillipines: First Time Traveller" programme. It semed to have been well planned and mostly worked like clockwork - transfers, flights (although two of these were delayed) and accommodation all came together well. In retrospect, we might have been better off going to another island than Borocay which is proably better suited to younger people (eg Puerto Princesa), although we still enjoyed it there. The hotels we were allocated were a mixed bunch, but generally good. The best thing about the ten days was the people - everywhere we went we were met by helpful, friendly, welcoming people.Show more

Reply from: Vio Travel
Dear Stephen, Thank you very much for taking the time to share your thoughtful feedback about your recent trip to the Philippines. We’re delighted to hear that you had a really good overall experience and that the “First Time Traveller” program, along with your modifications, worked smoothly for you. It’s wonderful to know that the arrangements—from transfers to accommodations—came together seamlessly, despite a couple of flight delays. We also truly appreciate your honest insight regarding Boracay. Your suggestion about considering destinations like Puerto Princesa is very valuable, especially for travelers seeking a different pace or experience, and we’ll certainly keep this in mind for future recommendations. We’re especially glad that the warmth and friendliness of the Filipino people stood out as a highlight of your journey—this is something we’re very proud of and happy you experienced firsthand. Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to assist you with another memorable trip in the future. Warm Regards, Vio Travel
