WASHINGTON, D.C.– The Philippine Embassy launched the 2020 edition of the VIP Tour, a signature tourism program of the Philippine Embassy and Consulates General in the United States, on 16 December 2019 at the Philippine Chancery Annex Building.
VIP Tour 2020 will feature Manila, Iloilo, and Boracay on 19-26 July 2020. It is made possible through the assistance and support of the Department of Foreign Affairs, Department of Tourism, and Rajah Tours International.

“Apart from the opportunity for American tourists to connect with local communities in the Philippines, the VIP Tour offers fun and convenience in a great value-for-money package,” the Ambassador added.
For as low as USD1,275 per person (triple occupancy), VIP Tour participants can avail themselves of accommodations with breakfast at 5-star hotels (Marriott Manila, Courtyard by Marriott Iloilo, and Movenpick Resort & Spa Boracay), domestic transfers, most meals, tours, services of English-speaking guides, and all taxes and service charges.
