Your 4-Day Manila Explorer Route
Ideal For:
On my August 2024 Philippines trip, Palawan's El Nido stole the show — outrigger bangka boats pulling up on karst-backed beaches, lagoons you reach by kayak. The photos on this page are my own. This explorer route pairs Manila with that Palawan highlight.
