 Transforming Tourism in the Philippines

where everyone wins

What we believe

We’ve experienced the beauty of the Philippines and believe in its ability to mesmerize and inspire travelers. We know what it means to be Filipino and believe in our humble ability to help you find joy in your travel experience through our unique hospitality and vibrancy. The Philippines truly has much to offer to travelers and we’re out on a mission to share this with the world.

We believe sustainable tourism is key to the economic growth of the Philippines. We look for tangible ways to transform the tourism industry and to ensure inclusive growth. We dream of a not-so-distant future when most travelers would have a destination in the Philippines as part of their bucket list, where this global interest fuels sustainable infrastructure investment in previously unknown destinations, and where local communities thrive as they participate with greater ownership of tourism enterprises.

We see the big picture. It challenges us and fuels us and we will be relentless in our effort to turn it into reality. With Guide to the Philippines, we take our first step.
