    Great trip! We had a lot of fun exploring this beautiful country! Especially island hopping and swimming with wale sharks were a once in a lifetime experience. Our Guide Jast was very kind and made always sure that everybody has a good trip. Only the second accommodation could have been of higher quality.

    I had an amazing time exploring the Philippines with Wanderlands Travel. I selected this tour because it was one of the only options I could find that included snorkelling with whale sharks, as well as, the sardine run - both of which were highlights for me! The island hopping excursions also featured some of the best snorkelling experiences I’ve had, with the opportunity to see coral reef and turtles. The tour winds down with a few beach days in El Nido so I would recommend traveling to another island rather than extending your stay here after the tour. Tour itinerary aside, our guide Dian was outstanding. She did an incredible job of being both personable, as well as, professional. She was great at setting our expectations on accommodations/activities and updating us on our daily itinerary. This was my first time doing a tour with a local guide and I appreciated that she was able to provide her own personal knowledge and insights - she also makes incredible spring rolls! Thank you Dian for making this a memorable vacation and for helping me on the second last night in El Nido! (You didn’t have to and I appreciate you so so much for being there for me!). Anyone is lucky to have Dian as their guide (wanderlands please give her a raise!)

    Dian was an excellent tour guide! I can’t say enough good things about her. Dian is such a personable person making everyone feel welcome. She always went above and beyond for us travellers and made sure we were well taken care of. Dian was always very organized and everything always went smoothly! It was very beneficial having her speak the language and have so much knowledge of the country which she is very proud of. Anyone would be lucky to have Dian as a guide!

    The entire trip was amazing and well planned out. Every activity that was included was fun and different to the previous one. The locations that were chosen were also excellent with port Barton being an absolute hidden gem. The tour guide Dian was amazing helping everyone with things from translating to helping organise activities that weren’t included in the package, organising dinner venues every night and even helping barter for a better deal at some shops. I don’t think we could’ve have asked her to do any more then she did. Highlights - seeing the whale sharks (obviously) and the 3 nights in port barton. Lowlights - hard to find any but the accommodation in moalboal wasn’t amazing (not that we spent much time in the room) and long trips in the car (worth the journeys, but some were very long). Thanks again Dian and wanderlands for an amazing experience and I can’t wait to come back to the Phillipines because of this.

    Dian was our tour guide and she was incredible. She has so much knowledge in regard to the locations we were visiting, history and current. She made sure everything flowed so seamlessly and was so much fun to be around. Dian was able to help on all areas possible. She was able to assist with travel, locations to see and eat and drink, and able to teach and help is with the language barriers if required. Thank you wonderlands and thank you Dian, especially for the little hotel treat you organised for our honeymoon.

    The Philippines trip was absolutely incredible. I loved seeing the beautiful landscape of the Philippines, eating the traditional food, and visiting the pristine beaches, while interacting with the amazing group. Accommodations were great and every place we visited was so beautiful. The itinerary was filled so many fun and exciting activities. Dian was an awesome tour guide who took care of the entire group, kept us organized, made sure we understood the itinerary, and showed us a fun time in the country.
