About Us

What does Tao mean?

Tao means Human in our language. Using tourism as a tool, we build our own world that we proudly share with other dreamers and adventurers.
Welcome to our home, workplace and playground.

About the Tao Experience

The story of how we started and who we are.

Your Hosts

The Lostboy will be your guides to paradise.

Community Connection

The members of the Tao Woman’s Association are the heart and soul of the experience.

Tao Kalahi Foundation

Your expeditions share the benefits of tourism through community education and training.

Tao Food and Culinary Pride

Farm-to-table and sea-to-seat on moving boats and remote islands.

Bamboo Architecture

Stay overnight in Tao style bamboo basecamps hidden throughout the islands.

Tao Farm Project

Permaculture is a philosophy of working with rather than against nature

Reviving Traditional Sailing

We built a traditional Paraw, a Filipino sailboat. This vessel is truly unique, adorned with tribal carvings and modern rigging, she is the largest remaining Paraw in the Philippines.
