Overview

You can learn a lot about Philippines from what is on the table. These 5 nights are built around markets, cellar visits and a hands-on cooking class across Manila · Palawan · Cebu, with El Nido island-hopping, Palawan and Boracay White Beach in between so it is a proper trip and not just a long lunch. From ₹65,999 per person.

Nov – May is the sweet spot for Philippines (Southeast Asia), and we plan departures from Surat around it — flights via Mumbai or Ahmedabad, 4★ boutique & agriturismo hotels locked in writing, and this itinerary from ₹65,999 per person on twin sharing.

Explera's Surat desk runs the whole journey end to end — flights, stays, transfers, guided sightseeing, Philippines visa assistance and insurance — with a written day-by-day plan before you pay and a human on call 24/7 while you travel. Every departure is fully customisable to your dates, budget and travellers.

Fantastic first trip abroad. The Manila package was customised to our dates and budget, the 4★ boutique & agriturismo were lovely, and they even rebooked one activity when the weather changed. Five stars.

★★★★★
Great value for a 5-night Manila trip. Clear communication before travel, GST invoice for our records, and genuine 24/7 support. This is how a holiday should be planned.

★★★★★
Booked the 5N/6D Manila trip with Explera for our first trip abroad and it was flawless — 4★ boutique & agriturismo, smooth transfers and a well-paced itinerary. Nothing to arrange ourselves, we just enjoyed.
