    · June 26th, 2025
    Orty is an amazing guide throughout our tour in the Philippines. Always positive and energetic even during the rainy days. Because of the rainy season/monsoon a few activities were unfortunately cancelled (all ferries were cancelled to our destination), but he would make sure to find a good alternative. And if the weather was moody, he would switch up the order of activities to make sure we would be able to do them all. He always looked ahead to make sure we would have the best experience and wasn't just guiding us through the activities.

    Orty really is the perfect tour guide; a fantastic mix of professionalism, reliability while being fun, personable. He goes so far above and beyond what you’d expect of a tour guide, making videos with us, taking us to exclusive places and bringing everyone together. It’s extremely rare that you can call a tour guide a genuine friend but Orty very much is that and I cannot wait to see him again. He made The Philippines one of the best experiences of my life and it wouldn’t have been the same without him.

    After visiting more than 35 countries I discovered TruTravels and every single moment of the Philippines was made absolutely perfect. Having Orty Flores as our guide meant having the best adventure partner in the world! He has amazing contacts, suppliers and puts out fires so efficiently if any have to arise. He made sure that we were constantly safe and always got the best deals on everything! Orty came as our tour guide but we left this tour as friends.

    I really enjoyed the tour a lot. The places we’ve been to we’re all so beautiful and our guide Orty really made the best of it, because he knew lots of cool places to go in those cities. He was also very social and included every person in the group. I would definitely recommend to people I know, about going to the Phillipines with a group and Orty as the tourguide.

    Orty was an excellent tour guide, the perfect mix of informative and fun. I felt like he connected with people on a personal level and when activities were cancelled due to weather he went above and beyond to make sure our experience was amazing. Any issues that occurred didn’t seem stressful as orty had it handled. I’ve been on several tour across different countries and orty has been the best tour guide by far. A great person and a brilliant tour guide.

    Orty was a great tour guide! He was fun and energetic, with a wealth of knowledge. He has friends and contacts everywhere we visited, helping give is the best experience possible and was flexible with plans in order to suit the group. We started as strangers but are leaving as friends, this trip would have been the same without him!

    It was an incredibly great time. Every day had new different experiences to offer. My absolute highlight was the canyoning, followed by the ziplining in El Nido and the Island hoping. Orty is the best travel guide you could wish for. He left no questions unanswered, was always present and made the tour unforgettable with his humourous, loving, open, enthusiastic manner. He is a sunshine and gives everyone in the group a great feeling.
