Hello, my dear travelers, My name is Merian, and I am passionate about sharing my love for travel, food, and adventure. And I like to explore the diverse and breathtaking landscapes of my beautiful country, the Philippines. Commence on an unforgettable 7-day journey through the captivating landscapes, vibrant beaches, and dynamic cityscapes of Tanay Rizal, La Union, Makati, and Bonifacio Global City (BGC). From the serene mountains of Tanay Rizal to the sun-soaked beaches of La Union and the bustling streets of Makati and BGC, each destination offers a unique blend of adventure, relaxation, and cultural discovery.
I am looking for 6 – 8 adventurous travelers who want to connect with nature, ride exhilarating waves, and delve into the pulsating energy of urban life. This crafted tour promises a diverse and immersive experience and memories that will last a lifetime as you explore what these locations in the Philippines offer. Solo travelers and couples are always welcome to join in this trip.

I'm excited to chat with you once you've booked your trip! We can hop on a call and get to know each other better. It'll be a great chance to see if this trip is exactly what you're looking for.
