Hi

I\'m interested in visitng the Philippines - Boracay specifically has been recommended for the best beaches. I\'m keen to avoid the rainy season as I\'ve been to Thailand in September and the rain spoiled the holiday a little for me.

When would be the best time t

Many Thanks

Hi Rhyssie,

Visiting the Philipppines on the month of Seotember to November is rainy season too here in the Philippines.
Nowadays its pretty sunny. It's still best time to visit Philippines now because its lean season here, that means its cheaper to travel different places like Boracay because of the low season.


thanks

Happy Vacation!!!!


Mabuhay!

Hi, Rhysie!

Towards the end of October until early May are the best months to visit the Philippines.

But even if you visit now, there are places to go to even if it is rainy season. For instance, Palawan, where you find the subterranean river, a UNESCO world heritage, is insulated from storms and heavy rains. The whole stretch of the island will make you wonder whether paradise can be any better. It's the Philippines' last frontier - a well-preserved environment that has too much to offer.

For sure, you will need a place to stay overnight in Manila. The good news is: backpacking has finally arrived in Makati City, which is the center of activity when you are in the capital city. About 15 mins or 5 kms away from the airport only. Just google "" to know your options.

Once you've decided on this trip, contact me again. I don't exactly know how I should post my email address here without it being snipped by the website. But if we stay in touch, I can easily provide you with an itinerary that will allow you to maximize your stay in the country while keeping your budget.

Thanks a lot and I wish you well!

Ronald

enjoy your trip! it's still ok to visit the Phils in the months of Sept. and Oct. Some beaches, equally enthralling as Boracay are spared from the rains such as the ones in Palawan. Reply to this
