What people love about Philippines Tours from Cebu City
- East Philippines Classic 10 Day - One Life Adventures
This tour was amazing! It was the perfect combination of adventure, beach days, cultural experiences and relaxation. Highlights would be seeing the tarsier monkeys, Motag Living Museum, Osmena Peak at sunrise, school visit and boodle fight dinner at Virgin Island. If you are thinking of visiting Philippines East then I highly recommend this tour as you won't be disappointed!
I have just completed the 17 Day Island Hopper trip with Tru travels and Orty as our travel ninja and have had an unforgettable experience. The itinerary itself was well thought out and allowed us to see a great number of locations in a relatively short amount of time. Furthermore, the activities and experiences offered in each location gave great depth and variety ensuring everyone, no matter their interests, had an excellent experience. In particular, the island hopping boat tours we did in Port Barton and El Nido were spectacular thanks to both the beautiful scenery and wildlife we encountered and the crews that accompanied us who were excellently selected by Orty and the Tru Travels team. The accommodation on the whole was great and Orty always ensured there were laundry facilities and water stations in order for us to have a comfortable stay. Furthermore, the location of the accommodations was great. We were always either walking distance or a short tuk tuk away from the best beaches, restaurants and shops that the town had to offer which elevated our experience, especially when we had some free time. However, what ultimately made my experience was undoubtedly our tour guide Orty. I have never met someone who struck the balance between being a working professional and your friend as well as Orty did. In a country that often posed unexpected challenges, Orty was always there to use his expertise to overcome any slight issue and ensure that we remained completely unaffected. He made us feel completely safe and secure, always at the end of the phone if we ever needed him, day or night and his extensive recommendations were always reliable, allowing us to enjoy each location to the max without any worry or effort on our behalf. He even used his various contacts and friends throughout the island to give us exclusive experiences which made us feel so special and lucky. In particular, what made Orty stand out for me was his undeniable passion for his work and his country. His knowledge of both the nation’s history and its communities gave us a depth to our trip we could not have wished for nor afforded on our own. He even shared his recommendations and various contacts for the rest of the Philippines for those, like myself, who were doing onward travel which made me feel so much more confident about travelling on my own. Furthermore, his passion and care for the people in the towns we visited elevated the trip from a holiday to an all encompassing, educational experience and has certainly impacted how I intend to travel in the future. He was inspired me to be more considerate and sustainable and to always incorporate local experiences. Orty’s warmth and character made a group of strangers feel immediately at home with one another and his wit had us laughing for hours. He was always up for joining us in the evening, often leading the party himself and was always incredibly engaging and friendly to everyone. He simply is the best and I cannot thank him enough for the experience he has given me nor recommend him more to anyone wishing to travel the Philippines. Thank you Orty for all that you do, we love you!

The tour was amazinggg!! Had the best time with the group - we had only 6 people but Chris got us all involved and made it way easier to be intimate and make bonds to enjoy the trip with each other! The accommodation in moalboal was so stunning - and all the activities were incredible! Canyoneering and scuba diving especially ? The sunset sail in boracay was so beautiful too! Chris was a great laugh and really easy to talk to and get along with. He took us to some great bars and restaurants and told us a lot about the Philippines from his time here. He was always up for a laugh and a joke! Could be better at pool (we were winning till he potted the black ?) Thanks for a great experience Chris!
