What people love about Private Tours in Philippines
Very professional service provided, they answered our queries immediately & the guides were always on time, very nice & informative. The included food was delicious, we couldn’t fault it & there was plenty of vegetarian options for us. Only con was one of the tour guides tried to pressure us into doing a quad bike tour of the chocolate hills for an additional cost. I made it clear i didn’t want to but he took us to the quad bikes anyway. Good job I wasn’t embarrassed to say no to the people that worked there (clearly his friends). Other than that we had no problems with the rest of the tour & the other tour guides were lovely.
Cebu & Bohol Discovery 5D/4N
- Puerto Princesa & El Nido Adventure 8D/7N
We had an incredible time on our tour of the Philippines! Everyone went above and beyond to ensure our trip was absolutely perfect! Camping under the stars on our own private island was the highlight, as well as having lunch on a secluded island amongst a busy day of island hopping. This is a self-guided tour though, which we weren’t entirely sure about before coming over, so probably wouldn’t advise doing if you’re a solo traveler as you will be by yourself for the full 8 days.. otherwise would 100% recommend this tour!

I thoroughly enjoyed this trip! Perfect mix between adventure and relaxation! Would definitely recommend.
What our customers ask about Private Tours & Trips in Philippines
What unique experiences can I expect on a Private tour in the Philippines?
Private tours in the Philippines let you explore places at your own pace with dedicated guides. You can take exclusive island hopping trips through El Nido's lagoons or join bamboo bike tours in Manila's historic Intramuros district. Some tours include visits to natural wonders like the Chocolate Hills in Bohol. Accommodations range from the modern Four Points by Sheraton in Palawan to boutique hotels like The Funny Lion in El Nido. A TourRadar traveler shared: "Having a private guide made the Underground River tour so much more intimate and informative."
What are the most popular destinations covered in Philippines Private tours?
The main stops on private Philippine tours include El Nido Bohol Panglao Island and Cebu City. El Nido's itineraries feature the clear lagoons and beaches of Seven Commandos and Simizu Island.

An 8-day Manila Bohol & Panglao trip gives enough time at each stop while a 5-day Palawan tour focuses on El Nido and Puerto Princesa.

When is the best time to book a Private tour in the Philippines?
The dry season from December to May offers the best conditions with February to April being ideal for activities like island-hopping in El Nido swimming at Kawasan Falls and exploring Bohol's Chocolate Hills. Properties like 1898 Hotel Colonia En Las Filipinas welcome guests year-round but see peak bookings in February and March. A TourRadar traveler reports: "We went in March and had perfect weather for all our activities especially the island-hopping tours in El Nido."
What's included in the meal plans for Philippines Private tours?
Most tours include daily breakfasts at partner hotels like Lex Hotel Cebu and Savoy Hotel Manila. Select lunches come with activities such as island-hopping tours and the Loboc River Cruise. The Palawan Getaway for example provides 4-5 breakfasts and 2-3 lunches featuring local Filipino dishes and fresh seafood. Dietary needs including vegetarian vegan and halal can be met. One TourRadar traveler noted, "The included meals were excellent especially the fresh seafood lunches during island-hopping tours."
What level of accommodations can I expect on Philippines Private tours?
The tours use mainly 4-5 star properties such as Bluewater Panglao in Bohol and The Funny Lion in El Nido. Most hotels offer direct beach access premium facilities and personal service.
