Philippines Tour Package for Couples 5 days 4 nights

Overview

What to pack for Philippines Tour Packages for Couples?

When packing for your romantic holiday in the Philippines, wear light and loose clothing to be comfortable in the tropical weather. Consider casual shorts, t-shirts, sundresses, and lots of swimwear for beach excursions. Do not leave without bringing beach items such as flip-flops or sandals, a sunhat or cap, and a beach towel in order to be able to fully enjoy the sun and sand.

Sunscreen is vital, so pack a high SPF sunscreen, sunglasses, and after-sun cream to guard your skin and keep it hydrated. For urban walks or simple hikes, pack comfortable walking shoes or sandals. For nights out, you can pack a few smart-casual clothes along for evening dinners and special outings.

Since the weather is not assured, especially during the rainy season, it’s better to have a light raincoat or poncho. Waterproof covers for your devices or waterproof phone cases will also protect your devices from water when doing activities at the beach or island hopping. If you happen to prefer using your own equipment, you might bring along snorkeling equipment like a mask and snorkel, but most tours provide these anyway.

Don’t forget to pack your own toiletries like insect repellent and medication if you have any. Don’t leave out important electronics such as your phone, camera, charging cords, a power bank, and a global travel adapter so you can all charge your stuff. Lastly, prepare your traveling documents such as passport, visa if you need one, travel insurance, and printed copies of your itinerary. It is also a good practice to have some local currency (Philippine Peso) for small purchases, in addition to credit or debit cards for larger transactions.

How to Reach the Philippines?

The Philippines is highly accessible by air through its key international airports, and it is accessible easily to people from all around the world. The primary gateway is the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (MNL) in the capital city of Manila, which takes most of the foreign flights. Other foreign airports are Mactan-Cebu International Airport (CEB) in Cebu and Clark International Airport (CRK) near Angeles City, which also take international flights from other nations.

The majority of international tourists travel to the Philippines in direct flights from major centers in Dubai, Singapore, Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, Tokyo, Seoul, and other major European and American cities. Companies like Philippine Airlines, Cebu Pacific, Emirates, Qatar Airways, Singapore Airlines, and Cathay Pacific make frequent flights to the Philippines.

Domestic flights and ferries can then transport you from there to the rest of the islands and destinations in the country upon arrival. Booking your flights in advance and finding out about visa requirements (if necessary for your nationality) will make your entry into Philippine travels as smooth as possible.
