Annnndddd we're off! Starting with a travel morning over to Bohol - our first hidden gem of the trip. You might not have heard of this amazing place, but you'll never forget the first time you visited this unique spot. We'll jump on a ferry and arrive at the hotel early afternoon. Our base in Bohol is only 2 minutes from the beach so you'll have sand between your toes in no time! It's also got a lovely pool for playing mermaid in and having an obligatory mini swimming gala!

It's the day you've been dreaming of ever since you discovered the Philippines...a full beach day! We'll arrive, towels in hand ready to conquer the waves (by that we mean jumping in them of course.) Then it's time to get competitive. Get ready for a full day of volleyball matches and frisbee throwing, all with a beer or piña colada in hand of course. Then we'll enjoy another epic Filipino sunset on the beach on our final night in Bohol. Tomorrow we are headed to our favourite place in the whole of the Philippines.

It's time for Siargao! This tear-drop island is just the ultimate destination in South East Asia! It's the surf capital of the Philippines and we cannot wait to arrive in paradise. We'll take a ferry and a flight over to Siargao but this journey is so worth it - trust us! When we arrive we will have time to unpack, explore the local area and get our first taste of Siargao's magic.

Chakras in the air people! It would be super rude to come to the surf capital and not throw ourselves into riding the legendary waves. Luckily for us we have some very patient instructors ready to get us started on the boards and show us how to conquer the sea. Now we can't guarantee you'll be standing up for more than 5 seconds but we can promise you an amazing time learning a completely new skill surrounded by the most supportive group. After learning how to surf - or attempting to anyway - it's only right we reward ourselves with a few hours of beach time. Read a book, play some more volleyball, go for a swim the afternoon is yours to spend as you like!

It's our final full day on tour - we're not crying you are! But in Tru-Style we are going out with a bang! Get ready for a day of island hopping, snorkelling, soaking in the rays and searching for the coolest marine life. If you are anything like us you'll be searching for Nemos, Dorys and Gills (not Bruce though IYKYK.) It's the ultimate way to spend our last day in paradise - is there any better feeling than the sea breeze in your hair? Of course not! Once we have explored the local islands and soaking in more sun we will head back to base to get ready for our final night out! It might be emotional but remember...don't be sad that it's over, be happy that it happened!

Whether you are headed home or you are off to explore more of the Philippines your amazing leader will be able to help you with your future plans and next adventures. It's been the most incredible 8 days, we've island hopped, learnt to surf, tried some amazing food and discovered more about the local culture of the Philippines. See you later TruFam!
