SMART Travel Plan - Know Before You Go

The country is huge and scattered across 7,000+ islands, so the smartest way is to divide it by zones:

• North (Luzon): Manila, Baguio, Banaue Rice Terraces, Vigan, Sagada – 7–10 days

• West (Palawan): Puerto Princesa, El Nido, Coron – 7–10 days

• Central (Visayas): Cebu, Bohol, Boracay, Siquijor, Dumaguete – 10–14 days

• South (Mindanao): Siargao, Camiguin, Davao – 7–10 days

📌 Rule of thumb: 10 days = 1 zone, 14 days = 2 zones, 20 days = 2–3 zones, 30 days = all 4 zones comfortably.
