Note: This itinerary may not be perfect but we accomplished everything by heart the way we planned it. And when you say by heart, you must strictly stick to your itinerary or else you will lose your chance of visiting the attractions or sites stated here. You may follow this travel plan but you can alter some parts according to your preference. In addition, In order for us to save more, we booked our flights using piso (promo) fare mostly in Airasia, our accommodation via Expedia and Agoda or directly to the hotel website, and our tour via online reservation. The sites we visited in every city were already in order and this way, it will save your time planning your own itinerary. All you need to do is just follow the sequence. The downside of this travel plan was the airport located in Clark. We needed to travel 3 hours from Manila back and forth although our airfare was pretty cheap. I hope you guys have fun on your tour around these amazing countries in South Asia. Enjoy!
