If those dates work for you please let me know and I'll double check the availability again.

Asked on October 15th, 2025I noticed that the cut off for this tour is 59 years old. I will be 61 in January. I was wondering if you could stretch the age limit or do you have a similar tour for seniors around the date specified?
- One Life AdventuresOperator•Written October 2025
As much as we would love to have you on board this tour, unfortunately I'm not able to stretch that age limit and I have to follow our guidelines as per our tour requirement. We understand that age restrictions can be disappointing, especially when you're eager to embark on an adventure. I can however, have someone from TourRadar reach out to you regarding tours that would be more suitable.

Louis
Asked on August 12th, 2025When is the earliest I can check into the Hotel on Day 1? When is the latest that I can check out of the Hotel on Day 10? Do I have to purchase an eSIM in order to have mobile data connection? What gear is provided during the snorkeling days? Is it recommended to exchange US DOLLARS to Philippine Pesos? When and where do I provided or show my travel insurance? Is there any other useful information or suggestions that I should know about?
- One Life AdventuresOperator•Written August 2025
You can check in from 2PM on Day 1, and if you arrive earlier, you're welcome to drop your bags and have a little explore before we kick things off with the group meeting and welcome dinner at 6PM. On Day 10, check out is usually by 11AM but the tour ends after the breakfast. We recommend purchasing an eSIM for better coverage. For snorkeling, basic gear such as a mask, snorkel and fins is provided. When it comes to money, you can withdraw cash at the airport or at ATMs near our Manila accommodation. Our guide usually will ask for your travel insurance on the first day, it can be digital or physical insurance travel.

Louis
Traveler•Written August 2025What time will someone meet me at at the airport on Day 1? How will I contact them when I arrive at the airport? Day 10 is a little confusing. So you have to pay extra for a Plane back to Manila? Can you explain what options I have when departing? Where will the van take me?
- One Life AdventuresOperator•Written August 2025
Around 3-5 days before your tour, we'll send you a link to join a WhatsApp group with your guide and the rest of your group. You can let your guide know your exact arrival details there so they can arrange the airport pickup. We always recommend landing before 3PM as Manila traffic can be heavy sometimes. For Day 10, your options are: Fly directly from El Nido to Manila with AirSwift, this is the quickest and easiest way, but it's at your own cost. Or you can travel back to Puerto Princesa, we cover the public transportation (around 6 hours). If you choose this, you can book a flight from Puerto Princesa to Manila, but please make sure it departs after 3 pm so we can get you there in time for check-in.

Louis
Traveler•Written August 2025As for as arrival what is the earliest reasonable time to be picked up from the airport when I arrive in Manila? Most flights are scheduled to arrive around 10am. Would that be too early?
- One Life AdventuresOperator•Written August 2025
You can arrive anytime on Day 1, even early morning. You're welcome to come before check-in and just leave your luggage at the hotel. Arriving earlier is always nice, it gives you time to rest up or head out for a little explore before the fun begins!

We've set our age range to 18 to 59 years with the aim of bringing together travelers who share similar energy levels, comfort zones, and expectations. Our tours tend to attract guests within this range, and we've found this helps create a really special group dynamic and atmosphere.

Janine
Asked on May 6th, 2025How many beach days/interaction with water and water activities does the tour have?
- One Life AdventuresOperator•Written May 2025
This trip is packed with beach time and water-based activities. You'll get at least 5 full days where you're in and around the ocean, with plenty of chances to swim, snorkel, and soak up those tropical island vibes. Here's a quick breakdown: Day 3: We visit the famous Underground River and spend the afternoon chilling on the beach in Port Barton. Day 4-5: Two days of island hopping with snorkelling, beach bonfires, and even a night camping on your own private beach! Day 6: Free time once we arrive in El Nido, most guests head straight to the beach or join a beach clean up or massage session. Day 7: After a short jungle trek, you'll spend the rest of the day at Las Cabanas Beach, with optional ziplining between islands. Day 8: A full day of island hopping in El Nido's famous lagoon and island spots, this is a big highlight of the trip. Day 9: Chill beachside massage day with optional extra water activities like another island hopping trip, paddleboarding, scuba diving or surfing.
