Typically the price covers transport, a guide and the main stops; entrance fees and lunch are sometimes extra. Inclusions vary by operator, so always read the specific listing - it spells out exactly what is provided and what you pay for separately, such as entrance or environmental fees.

What should I bring?

Pack comfortable shoes, sunscreen, a hat, water and small cash for entrance fees and souvenirs. It is also worth carrying some cash for local fees, drinks and tips, plus any personal medication, since card facilities can be limited outside the cities.

The best conditions are usually the dry months of December to May, with calm seas for snorkelling and diving. That said, the Philippines is a year-round destination, and many of these experiences run in any season - just expect the occasional shower and check the forecast for the day.
