As one of Asia’s adventure playgrounds, the Philippines is the perfect place to get outdoors and soak up the archipelago’s natural splendor. The capital city of Manila, a popular destination for first-time visitors to the country, is just a stone’s throw from some of its best landscapes. Top Manila outdoor activities include trekking to lava-filled craters, off-roading in a 4-wheel drive, canoeing in the emerald-green pools of a waterfall, and mountain biking to 2,000-year-old rice terraces. And these guided activities include round-trip transportation and equipment, making getting out in nature a breeze.
