Philippines Travel Guide: What to See, Do, Costs, & Ways to Save

The best months to visit Philippines is the summer months which is from December to April. These months' temperatures are around 24°C-31°C. At this time, the country is fully accessible, including many beautiful islands and more remote areas.

The rainy season is from June to October, bringing considerable rain with warm temperatures. Central areas such as Cebu should still stay dry for the most of parts. If you don't mind your hot days sprinkled with some rain, travelling during this season is still suggested due to reasonable price and less tourists.
