What people love about touring Philippines solo
Such a wonderful trip! I love how much variety there is in the itinerary. City days, beach days, exploring days - we saw SO much of The Philippines in such a short amount of time. Solo girl traveler approved too ?
Philippines Sunset
- East Philippines Classic 10 Day - One Life Adventures
This is my second tour with OneLife in the Philippines and like my last tour the East did not disappoint! The East tour provided the opportunity to immerse yourself in the culture including a dessert making class and Motag Living Museum. It also provided the perfect balance between relaxation and adventure! The early morning hike to Osmena peak would have to be one of the highlights and worth the early wake up call! Also the optional extra of canyoneering in Moalboal is a must if you want an adrenaline rush! Our guide Rachael was incredible! Attentive , willing to go above and beyond and generally just fun! Would highly recommend joining the Philippines East tour!
- Philippines Palawan Island Getaway
Ian, our tour guide, was knowledgeable and made sure everything was running on time. We had some disruption to our water activities due to high waves in Palawan, but Ian and Michael pivoted the activities so they were still fun and engaging. I booked the tour to just relax and let someone else do the planning for me and it worked wonderfully. Would book again with Intrepid.
What our customers ask about Philippines Tours for Solo Travelers
How easy is it to meet other travelers as a solo traveler on Philippines group tours?
Meeting other travelers comes naturally on Philippines group tours. The shared experiences from island hopping in El Nido to snorkeling at Balicasag Island create easy connections between travelers. Most tours include group meals and activities where conversations flow freely. Places like Bohol Beach Club are set up with common spaces that make mixing with fellow travelers effortless. A TourRadar traveler noted: "The small group size made it easy to bond with others while exploring beautiful places like the Underground River in Puerto Princesa."
Which areas of Philippines are most solo traveler-friendly?
Boracay El Nido and Bohol stand out as the most welcoming spots for solo travelers. These destinations combine well-developed tourism facilities with plentiful group activities and safe environments. El Nido's daily island hopping tours bring together travelers naturally while Cebu City offers both heritage sites and modern comforts. Places like La Natura Resort serve as comfortable bases where solo travelers often cross paths. A TourRadar traveler shares: "El Nido was perfect as a solo traveler - the group tours to lagoons and beaches made it easy to meet people while feeling completely safe."
What type of accommodation can solo travelers expect on Philippines tours?
Accommodations range from upscale hotels to beachside cottages. You might stay at the Seda Bonifacio Global City in Manila one night and find yourself in a traditional Filipino beach hut the next. Popular choices include Hotel Covo in El Nido and District Boracay on Boracay Island. One TourRadar traveler mentioned "the accommodations were perfectly situated to experience both city life and island paradise." Solo rooms are available for an extra fee though shared rooms offer a budget-friendly option.
How much spending money should solo travelers budget for additional expenses?
Plan for 30-50 USD daily beyond tour inclusions during a 10-day Philippines trip. This covers extras like the 250 PHP boatman fee at Pagsanjan Falls additional meals and personal expenses. City meals in Manila cost 5-15 USD while beach activities in El Nido such as kayaking or extra island tours range from 20-40 USD.
What's the typical group size for solo traveler-friendly tours in Philippines?
Palawan and Boracay offer excellent infrastructure for solo travelers with regular group activities. El Nido's island hopping tours to Hidden Beach and Secret Lagoon bring travelers together while Coron's snorkeling at Kayangan Lake attracts groups. Manila's Intramuros district works well for solo exploration with guided walking tours available. A TourRadar traveler notes: "El Nido was perfect for meeting other travelers while still feeling safe to explore independently."
Is it safe to travel alone with a group through Philippines?
Group tours provide a secure way to explore the Philippines. Local guides handle logistics between islands like Palawan Boracay and Cebu while arranging stays in established hotels such as Seda Lio in El Nido. As one TourRadar traveler shared: "Having a knowledgeable guide made me feel completely secure even in more remote areas like the Underground River in Puerto Princesa."
