Even though many towns and tourist spots have re-opened, public transport is yet to catch up. And it’s one of the major challenges for travelers in the new normal, especially when you’re traveling to far-flung provinces. It’s tough enough that you have to fulfill documentary requirements and health checks. Save yourself some hassle by letting private car rentals and tour providers take care of your transfers. Not to mention, they’re your safest option for travel, whether or not public transportation is available.
To help you plan your trip more easily, we’ve listed down private transfers and tours you can book in the top Philippine destinations that have reopened.
