Uncharted Philippines

The Classics

These are our all-time most popular adventures. When we first went on these trips we could count on our fingers the number of travelers we encountered in a day. Well, you can't hide great places from people forever. The beaten path is now much closer to the destinations in these tours and their atmosphere of remoteness is gone. Fortunately the sheer beauty of nature, the richness of the local culture and the excitement of our activities remain. We made a name for ourselves with these adventures and they are still among the best active nature trips that you can do in the Philippines.

You can do The Classics as Group Tours or Private Tours and they can also be cusomized.
