Swim and relax in Coron’s clear waters and white sand beaches or enjoy El Nido’s many restaurants, bars and friendly locals for the perfect holiday company.

Have a very merry White Christmas in Santa Fe, Mexico

The Philippines is not the coldest place on earth, so sometimes a trip to a place where you can wear a coat without sweating is the perfect holiday gift to enjoy. Experience the snow in Santa Fe’s ski resort and bask in the cold that you won’t get anywhere in the Philippines.

Santa Fe’s various Christmas dances are also a beautiful sight to see.
