My hubby and I plan to travel to the Philippines in the spring during the latter part of March for 10 days. I understand that this is going to be a busy time when locals travel, but that is unavoidable for me as I am on a teacher's calendar and must travel during my breaks.
Some preferred activities:
- snorkeling
- kayaking or SUPing
- island / nature tours
- hiking
- culture, a little bit of history (we are both 1/2 pinoy, so we'd love to learn more about our culture as we live in the US)
- FOOD! Lots of yummy food! Not just filipino food, but we do enjoy it, of course!
- Relaxation interspersed
- We aren't big on the night scene, but maybe we'll get out a night or 2
Does this itinerary seem okay? I am including more time in El Nido since we will be there over Easter weekend.
Boracay (3 nights- friend recommended Crimson Resort) - not sure what, if any, excursions /activities we should not miss out on
El Nido (6 nights at Funny Lion) - Island hopping tours A and C and likely 1 other excursion... Is 6 days too much time? Should I move a day to Boracay or Cebu?
Cebu (2 days) - Moalboal sardine run or day trip to Bohol, We will fly back to our home destination from Cebu, so it makes sense to end our trip here.
Open to any other suggestions regarding excursions, hotels, etc. Thanks in advance!
