Technology has opened up new ways for Filipinos to travel. This
generation has tapped social media, websites, apps, and live events to learn
more about previously unknown local destinations, each holding great promise of
dreamlike tropical landscapes and rich cultures. Beyond the gloss of posting photos on our feeds and
sharing travel itineraries is an enthusiasm to see more of what the country has
to offer - sights, food, history, and culture.
In this spirit, the team behind Explore Philippines presents
a quarterly ode to our islands. Explore Philippines Magazine welcomes
a new era of print with a deeper look into developing travel trends and the
inspiring people leading the way, and fresh eyes on hidden gems and forgotten
communities. The high quality 160-page collectible issues are thoughtfully
designed and aim to spur ideas and conversations about enhancing the way we
explore, sustainability for our islands, and the future of local travel.
Explore Philippines Magazine’s editorial sections are carefully crafted and packed with
beautiful photos and thought-provoking articles. Joined by a guest
Explorer for every issue, the team delves into the very heart and soul of the
issue’s foremost features, from the main destination, to accommodations,
locals, and delicacies in First Class. Past guest Explorers include notable
journalist Atom Araullo, globetrotting couple Jericho Rosales and Kim Jones,
and celebrity hosts Marc Nelson and Rovilson Fernandez.
With the same focus on the local scene, Main Course is the
magazine’s prized food series that stars three culinary standouts celebrated by
a common theme. In Now Boarding, we explore what’s hot, hip, and happening in
the world of seasonal spots and scene-stealers. Checklist is a rundown of the
best and brightest in local tourism. Every latest travel trend has a story to
follow, and we dive deeper into each one in Pulse. Bringing the focus back to
individuals, Disruptor is a look into a modern hustler’s life on the move.
Jetsetter is our go-to travel guide from your favorite Pinoy tourists, and
Pilot is an intimate one-on-one with the leaders, movers and shakers, and trailblazers
in the industry.
A newly added section, Roots is dedicated to the faces and
places that helped build a community’s identity. Rounding out the list are
Recreation, our sports and outdoor adventure special, and Detour, which takes
us beyond leisure traveling and delves into traveling with a deeper purpose.
