| Why the Philippines? Although in Asia it has the distinct advantage of being the fourth largest English speaking country in the World. After 50 years colonization by the Americans you will also feel at home. The people are warm and friendly and historically you can experience the blended culture of Malay, Chinese and Spanish heritages. What do I do? In between your dental and medical appointments you and your partner can visit the original Spanish built City of Manila with its old Spanish Architecture, Cathedrals and also see the 500 year old walled city of Intramuros or take one of the many day tours on offer from our Manila tours office.

Shopping prices in Manila are on a par or lower than other Asian countries, particularly clothing, as many designer brands are available at a fraction of the cost in Australia. There is a lot of value in shoes (remember Imelda Marcos) and other leather goods. What do I need? First you need a passport valid for at least 6 months. No visa is required under 21 days and there are no special health requirements. |
