Trust us, you’re about to be completely blown away.

Itinerary

Welcome to Asia's Pearl of the Orient, packed with some of the BEST views of your lifetime! There's so much to see, and there's no time to waste. You'll meet your crew here in Cebu. Drop your bags off & join us for your very first meal of the trip (it's our treat!). (D) Stay: Yello Hotel (or similar)

It's the first full day. So you best believe we're living it out to the fullest. We'll head out in our van to our very first beachy spot of the trip, stopping by for a local style lunch & then a beautiful mystical church too!

Love waterfalls? You'll love today. So drop your bags off at our hotel, and let's get going with a trek towards a gorgeous waterfall. You'll have the chance to dip your toes in the water and even take a swim (if that's your vibe). Expect stunning scenery of beautiful turquoise waters, majestic cascades and wonderfully green forests. Wow. (B/L) Stay: Pescador Suites (or similar)

Yes, we know. You can't wait to witness the fascinating sardine run IRL. After breakfast, get ready for a snorkelling adventure here in this picturesque coastal town. Hit the white-sand beach, play volleyball with the locals. And then head into the water for snorkelling, turtles and ofc, the super rare sardine run! (B)

It's time to say goodbye to the oh-so-beautiful Moalboal. Don't worry, our next stop is giving those turquoise waters some serious competition. Jaws will drop as you drop your bags off at our scenic riverside resort here. Bohol's known for its luscious landscape & fascinating creatures. But first,  you're in for an once-in-a-lifetime experience tonight - we're riding on a boat to see golden fireflies illuminate the river in the dark! (B/L) Stay: Loboc River Resort (or similar)

Wakey wakey, grab your brekkie. Today we're jumping on a tuk tuk (just like the locals!) for a full day of exploring all the countryside sights here. Think: hills that look like chocolate, and a visit to Tarsier Sanctuary with cute tree-hugging monkeys... And for lunch? Oh, not much, just a delicious 8-course meal of the freshest-ever Filipino food. (B/L)

Bye-bye Bohol. An island hopping boat adventure awaits us. One afternoon. Two islands. Plenty of seaside stunners to discover. So hop on the boat for our first stop - Pamilacan Island for snorkelling around the vibrant corals. Keep your eyes peeled for playful dolphins as we cruise through the ocean. Then, we'll settle down on Virgin Island to catch the golden sunset over the turquoise waters. What a day! (B) Stay: Abraham Resort (or similar)

All good things in life are free - just like this day. Unwind on the white-sand beach. Get pampered with a massage. Sample local eats. Go snorkelling in the sparkling sea. Do what you please. Rest & relaxation never looked this good… (B)

Shh, no need to shed tears just yet. We're heading back to Cebu City today - but only to catch a flight to another sun-kissed island. Fasten your seatbelts and get ready for the final stop of our eastern island adventure. Boracay's our home base for the next couple of days, and it's probably one of the most popular ones out here too. So check into your rooms and enjoy a free evening with your fam, here in this sun-kissed paradise. (B) Stay: Hue Boracay (or similar)

Suit up for an island hopping day trip! We'll stop by at plenty of show-stopping spots with crystal clear waters, hidden coves and snorkelling opportunities before heading back to our hotel to rest up. (B)

Aaaand with that, our island hopping adventure has come to an end (sob). Grab your final meal of the trip and bid farewell to your crew. Don't worry, after an epic trip like this one, another azure adventure is defo on the horizon. (B)
