Well, I'm from London, UK and I'm going to the Philippines this xmas & new year.
I'm going to go to all the xmas/new year festivals in Manila and also visit my family in the province. Also mingle with the people, it's a good way to learn about the culture.
If you like rock climbing, go to rockwell, all the rich people go there. I went there 2 years ago and they have some man made walls that you can climb on. I was lucky enough to go there at the right time as they were filming a new movie.
Scuba diving, go to boracay or cebu, there are also lots of hot sexy spanish looking women there.

Scuba divers usually go to Palawan or Batangas. Go to the malls. I suggest that you see the Mall of Asia, this is bigger than the Mall of America. This is located in Pasay City. From there, you can go to the Baywalk, which is usually open at nights. We have nice malls. You can find SM Department stores everywhere. If you are found of the nightlife,then go to Malate or Makati. Go to Intramuros. WOW Philippines usually feature the different provinces in the Philippines and they have programs, usually cultural. We have nice churches in Intramuros too and nice restaurants. We had been influenced by the Spanish x 300 years. The Philippines has 7,100 islands. Boracay, is a well known tourist spot especially for those who loves the beaches. You can hit Palawan with 2 stones, you can enjoy nature, go swimming or scuba diving. Tagaytay or Baguio are the coolest places here in the Philippines. Pagudpud in Ilocos has nice beaches. You can go around Ilocos Sur and Ilocos Norte. In Vigan, you can see the old houses there. Cebu City and Davao City are also well known tourist destinations. However, the climate is just like Manila. It is a little bit hot. If you want to go back in history, then go to Corregidor.

The Philippines is a tropical country so the weather is great year-round. There are a lot of water sports in the beach resorts like kayaking, scuba diving etc. You can also go mountain climbing and do some hiking. Wherever you go in the Philippines, I'm sure you'll find lots of activities to do and you'll surely have a good time.
