Here are my top Philippines travel tips to help you plan and make the most of your holiday. It’s an amazing country, but be prepared!

If you’re looking for travel tips for the Philippines, then boil up a brew and let me share my knowledge, with you.

I’ve been to the Philippines twice now, and I’ve spent almost six weeks in total exploring the beautiful islands of Palawan, Cebu, Siargao, Bohol and Boracay. And I’m still totally up for going back again one day – it’s that good!

– First Philippines travel tip: go to Siargao!

The Philippines are made up of over 7000 islands, meaning that the only way to travel between them is to either fly or travel by water. Not too much of a problem – in fact, all part of the journey – but it does mean you need to consider the fact that weather changes quickly, affecting transport and so you can’t really expect, or plan for, anything in the Philippines to be on time. Don’t book your travel plans too close together for that very reason.

Oh and there’s your first travel tip for the Philippines
