HIGHLIGHTS OF ASEAN
PHILIPPINESThe land of colourful fiestas, the Philippines is always buzzing with action. Iconic jeepneys roar down the busy streets while outrigger boats take you to island hideaways. Volcano climbers, island hoppers or beachcombers – everyone’s welcome to this archipelago pulsing with the festival beat.
Best of Philippines1. BoracayPowdery white sands, clear shallow waters and an endless island vibe draw both locals and foreigners all year round to one of the world’s most famous beaches, accesible from Kalibo.
2. IntramurosHop on a calesa (horse-drawn carriage) and take a trip down Old Manila’s cobblestone streets to explore the Walled City of Intramuros. Don’t miss the UNESCO World Heritage-listed San Agustin Church and its museum, as well as the historic Fort Santiago.
3. Banaue Rice TerracesIn the remote mountainous hinterlands of Luzon, these 2,000-year-old rice terraces are the oldest structures in the Philippines, cited in the UNESCO World Heritage List as a “living cultural landscape of unparalleled beauty”.

4. Oslob, CebuOslob town is best known for the eco-tourism heaven Sumilon Island, a marine sanctuary featuring four major dives sites. But even if you don’t dive, come here to snorkel with huge and friendly whale sharks, seen all year round.
5. Chocolate Hills, BoholClimb to the viewing deck to see the famous Chocolate Hills, over 1,000 natural grass-covered hills that turn chocolate brown during the hot summer months. If you’re up for it, test your balance on the treetop rope course, bike zip and the canopy walks.
6. Underground RiverThe longest navigable underground river in the world lives up to its status as a UNESCO World Heritage site with its amazing cave formations, best visited as a day trip from Puerto Princesa.
7. El NidoThe moment you set your eyes on the mighty limestone cliffs, dreamy lagoons and pristine beaches of El Nido in Palawan, you will think that you’re in paradise.
8. AdoboChicken or pork, cooked in soy sauce and vinegar, transforms into a Filipino favourite.

Planning your ASEAN trip can be overwhelming at first because there are so many ways to do it. If you don’t have an itinerary in mind yet, here are some basic tips for putting one together.
1. Do your homework. List the destinations where you want to go and divide them into two columns: the first for places you really must visit, the second for places that are good to see, but not essential. 2. Plot your route on a map. Mark your first-column cities and check if there are flights between them. If there are none, consider going through your second-column cities or major cities close to them. 3. Take time off. As there is a time limit to use the Asean Pass, choose your dates wisely. Note that there are blackout dates when the Asean Pass may not be used.4. Balance time and spending. Check not only the travel times but also the credits required for each connection. 5. Don’t rush. It’s not about how many cities you visit but the quality of your experience in each destination.
