Day 1: Cebu

Location: Cebu

Accommodation: Hotel

Touchdown in Cebu! Are you ready to explore more of the East? Our 8-day adventure starts today! Relax, unpack and maybe even start to explore Cebu. Everyone will be arriving throughout the day today ready for our first welcome dinner all together tonight. It's going to be an amazing 8 days and we cannot wait to get started...

Day 2: Cebu/Bohol

Location: Cebu, Bohol

Accommodation: Hotel

Meals Included: Breakfast

Annnndddd we're off! Starting with a travel morning over to Bohol - our first hidden gem of the trip. You might not have heard of this amazing place, but you'll never forget the first time you visit this unique spot. We'll jump on a ferry and arrive at the hotel early afternoon. Our base in Bohol is only 2 minutes from the beach so you'll have sand between your toes in no time! It's also got a lovely pool for playing mermaid in and having an obligatory mini swimming gala!

Day 3: Bohol

Location: Bohol

Accommodation: Hotel

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch

Today it's go go go as we explore the local area. We'll go on a tour all around this island. Someone call Willy Wonka cause first up is the Chocolate Hills! The area looks like something out of a fairytale, each hill looks like a little truffle and what's even cooler is that this landscape is still quite a big mystery for the locals of the island! Now we've ticked off nature it's only right we saw some wildlife too. Ever heard of a Tarsier? These endangered primates are super cute and we'll be learning all about how the locals are making sure the numbers of these cute creatures continue to rise! To finish off this epic day we'll go on a river cruise before heading over to plant some trees and contribute to a local community project that is working to protect Bohol’s unique biodiversity.

Day 4: Bohol

Location: Bohol

Accommodation: Hotel

Meals Included: Breakfast

It's the day you've been dreaming of ever since you discovered the Philippines...a full beach day! We'll arrive, towels in hand ready to conquer the waves (by that we mean jumping in them of course.) Then it's time to get competitive. Get ready for a full day of volleyball matches and frisbee throwing, all with a beer or piña colada in hand of course. Then we'll enjoy another epic Filipino sunset on the beach on our final night in Bohol. Tomorrow we are headed to our favourite place in the whole of the Philippines.

Day 5: Bohol/Siargao Island

Location: Bohol, Siargao Island

Accommodation: Hotel

Meals Included: Breakfast

It's time for Siargao! This tear drop island is just the ultimate destination in South East Asia! It's the surf capital of the Philippines and we cannot wait to arrive in paradise. We'll take a ferry and a flight over to Siargao but this journey is so worth it - trust us! When we arrive we will have time to unpack, explore the local area and get our first taste of Siargao's magic.

Day 6: Siargao Island

Location: Siargao Island

Accommodation: Hotel

Meals Included: Breakfast

Chakras in the air people! It would be super rude to come all the way to the surf capital and not throw ourselves into riding the legendary waves. Luckily for us we have some very patient instructors ready to get us started on the boards and show us how to conquer the sea. Now we can't guarantee you'll be standing up for more than 5 seconds but we can promise you an amazing time learning a completely new skill surrounded by the most supportive group. After learning how to surf - or attempting to anyway - it's only right we reward ourselves with a few hours of beach time. Read a book, play some more volleyball, go for a swim the afternoon is yours to spend as you like!

Day 7: Siargao Island

Location: Siargao Island

Accommodation: Hotel

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch

It's our final full day on tour - we're not crying you are! But in Tru-Style we are going out with a bang! Get ready for a day of island hopping, snorkelling, soaking in the rays and searching for the coolest marine life. If you are anything like us you'll be searching for Nemos, Dorys and Gills (not Bruce though IYKYK.) It's the ultimate way to spend our last day in paradise - is there any better feeling than the sea-breeze in your hair? Of course not! Once we have explored the local islands and soaking in more sun we will head back to base to get ready for our final night out! It might be emotional but remember...don't be sad that it's over, be happy that it happened!

Day 8: Siargao Island

Location: Siargao Island

Meals Included: Breakfast

It's checkout day! Whether you are headed home or you are off to explore more of the Philippines your amazing leader will be able to help you with your future plans and next adventures.

Awesome trip, great way to...

17-Apr-2024

Awesome trip, great way to see so much of Mexico in a short space of time. Top moments were the beach at Holbox, swimming in the 7 colours lagoon, experiencing the cenotes, all the guacamole, delicious breakfast recommendations, seeing Xichen Itsa and biking in Tulum. Our guide was Eve and she was THE BEST. We have done a bunch of other trips and she was by far the most personable, creative, fun, lovely person with a lot of experience and wonderful ability to share her knowledge with us. Highly recommend this trip to anyone who wants to party and catch a lot of culture all in one trip. I loved that the group was only 10 people, gave us a chance to meet everyone and there wasn’t a divide in the group nor too many people.

I completed the Colombia tour, and it was absolutely amazing! Traveling with the group was so much fun (and very safe), and we got to explore a variety of stunning places throughout the country. Colombia truly is a remarkable destination, offering a mix of breathtaking landscapes and vibrant cities. Our tour leader, Manu, was exceptional! His commitment to ensuring we had a fantastic experience was evident in every aspect of the trip.

The trip was an amazing experience and great way to meet lovely girls. Everyone on the trip was so nice and kind. Our guide Gem was so lovely and passionate. She strived to provide us with the best experience each day no matter if bumps popped up along the way. We had a great mixture of planned events and free time which allowed us to explore how we wanted to. Gem was so knowledgeable about cities and I left safe the whole time. Was a trip I will remember forever and am so glad I did it 💛

05-Oct-2024

Just finished the most incredible tour of Italy with Will, Maria, and David. Will was the kindest, funniest, and most amazing tour guide I’ve ever had. He was able to make every moment as fun and stress-free as possible. On the tour I enjoyed learning about the history and culture of Italy; trying different Italian food and wine, and walking to and around different historic sites. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone who loves Italian food and culture. Can’t wait to go on my next TruTravels trip!

Words can not describe how...

10-Dec-2023

Words can not describe how amazing this trip was! Especially our tour guide Kevin, he is a wonderful person and made the trip even better than I could have hoped for! The best part was i decided to share this experience with my 73 year old dad, and Kevin and the rest of the group were wounderful with him, nothing was ever a problem and if there was they would go out of their way to make sure he shared the same experience as the rest of us. Especially very step stair, my heart would be in my mouth but by day two they all had a system where they would all grab an arm each and someone would stand in front just in case he slipped, it was so heartwarming to see 🥺 One morning Kevin even went out of his way to take dad on a walking tour of Hanoi but instead of walking, dad was carried on a push bike so that he didn’t miss out and then he later came to collect us and took us out on the same tour on foot. He made me and my dad feel like we weren’t a burden or anything! He was utterly amazing and I’m so thankful he was our tour guide. Thank you Kevin for being such an amazing person and going above and beyond for us. I recommend this tour to anyone! And don’t be afraid to take your mum or dad because I promise you’ll be in safe hands with Kevin 🥰 lots of love Betty Bee and Mr Tony 🖤💛

I would definitely recommend Tru travels

05-Jul-2022

I would definitely recommend Tru travels, I’ve had an amazing and unforgettable trip. Our tour guides Nonnie and Gun were incredible - organised and informative but most importantly enormous fun. I’ve made friends for life and I’m heartbroken to be leaving. I’m very glad I decided to do this tour.

29-Sep-2023

I am on my final day of the 10 day Bali Experience and I honestly can’t put into words how much I’ve loved my trip. As my first time solo travelling I was a bit nervous, but this was the perfect trip. Everything about it has been amazing and the activities have exceeded my expectations. One of the best things about the trip was our tour guide - Ibing we love you soooo much. Ibing has been so kind, caring and helpful and has always gone above and beyond to make sure everyone in the group feels safe and is having a great time. I am going to miss Ibing and my whole TruTravels family so much.
