It's More Fun in the Philippines!
Whether you're a yoga enthusiast, a beach bum, a nomad or simply have itchy feet, this is the backpacker-friendly trip of a lifetime. Eleven days of sunshine, yoga, sea water and mouth-watering delicious food.
Samyama Yoga is proud to offer its second island hopping tour in El Nido, an ecologically-sustainable tourism destination. We'll be traveling through Palawan, voted "The Top Island in the World" by Conde Nast Traveler's Reader Choice Awards. Also known as The Last Frontier, it is simply the most beautiful place on earth.
As part of this tour a 6-day yoga retreat will be offered in El Nido. You can also choose to do only the retreat. Please see https://www.facebook.com/events/615555968782523/ for details.

Manila
The capital of the Philippines. Mod cons available.
El Nido
Remember the movie 'Beach' with Leonardo di Caprio? Apparently Alex Garland's book was originally inspired by the beauty of El Nido.
Endless white beaches, crystal clear waters and an underwater world, that will take your breath away. A destination that truly looks like paradise. The beauty of El Nido is hard to describe, you have to see the place with your own eyes.
The highlights of our stay are the island hopping tours for two days including a buffet lunch and a 6-day yoga retreat.
Puerto Princesa
Aptly nicknamed “the city in a forest.” It’s been named the Philippines’ cleanest and greenest city.
Please be advised that we will be traveling for six hours on the van to reach El Nido from Puerto Princesa.
Vaccinations
For your peace of mind, please consult your GP.
