Group tour packages Philippines

Led by local guides, each journey blends island life with adventure

For groups of friends or families of more than six, a private group tour package is the one. It’s the same Tao hospitality, Filipino food and rhythm of the sea, just shared with a group of people you already love.

By bangka

Groups of six or more travel privately with Tao. Larger groups can’t join our regular mixed expeditions, but your private adventure includes everything Tao is known for: freshly cooked island meals, warm crew hospitality and off-grid bamboo basecamps. But all at your own pace. It’s the same wild journey, just reserved for your circle. Join a Tao group tour package in the Philippines today.

By paraw

You may want to consider chartering Balatik, our 74-foot traditional paraw, for a private sailing adventure through the islands and coral reefs of El Nido with your friends and family (up to 30 people). The largest active paraw in the Philippines, Balatik is a spacious outrigger sailboat adorned with intricate indigenous carvings. You can choose a one, two or three-day private expedition, tailored to your pace and interest, whether it’s sailing between remote islands, snorkelling vibrant reefs or simply unwinding at sea.

Or by speedboat

Private expeditions can be shaped around your group. Extend the trip, plan a celebration or simply let our crew guide you through Palawan’s quietest islands. It’s adventure designed for togetherness, Tao-style. Banski, our speedboat, is based in El Nido and can get your away from the crowds in Bacuit Bay for a day or overnight.

Stay on remote islands in bamboo huts. Stay overnight in our off-grid bamboo basecamps. Each one has its own personality – a sheltered cove, a wild jungle, a community homestay or a typhoon-wrecked boutique resort.

Dive in! Jump overboard to snorkel vibrant coral reefs, swim to secluded beaches or relax on deck with a book. The Tao Experience is a social gathering, but there’s always space to step back, disconnect and find your own rhythm.

We’re passionate about food, serving fruits and vegetables from our farm, freshly caught seafood and occasionally home-reared pork. Served family-style on sharing plates. Big on flavour, Filipino food is soulful, generous and seasonal.
