About a decade ago, planning a trip for family, friends, or even just for yourself was rather so much of a challenge. But, fast forward to this day when every single information is just a tap or click away, traveling has been made more convenient for everyone, especially in the Philippines.
Travel blogging and vlogging have become a trend among digital nomads. They, too, have made travelers and wanna-be’s feel thrilled in as much as informed what to expect of a place they’ve always wished to visit. Most of the time, some of us would rely on these influencers when planning our next getaway.
Luckily in the Philippines, we have a reliable bunch of travel influencers, and I personally admire these Top 15 Pinay Travel Bloggers who have constantly filled us with information about places they visit both within the country or overseas.

They’ve constantly and diligently filled us with every single information they can find in their travels, too! It’s actually as if to say, “We want you to have the best trip ever.” And that’s just what we need, right?
Are you planning on your next getaway too? You might as well digitally travel with our chosen Top 15 Wonder Pinay travel bloggers and be filled.
