Philippine Consul General to San Francisco Neil Ferrer invites travelers to join the 2023 Very Important Pinoy (VIP) Tour at the official launch at the Philippine Center on 11 January 2023.
“I wish to invite all of you to participate in the 2023 VIP Tour, which will take visitors to Manila, Iloilo and Boracay on 16-24 July,” said Consul General Ferrer. He added that the Philippines’ tropical climate and its tourist destinations await visitors, especially those coming from North America.
In a video message, Ambassador Jose Manuel Romualdez invited participants to join the 2023 VIP Tour and experience what historical and vibrant Manila, heritage-rich Iloilo, and Conde Nast Traveler 2022 Readers’ Choice Top Island in Asia, Boracay, have to offer.
Philippine Tourism Director Soleil Tropicales presented the itinerary involving ecotourism adventures, cultural heritage and culinary tours, as well as additional recreational options, such as dive, golf, among other activities.

Mr. Jojo Clemente, president of Rajah Tours, the ground tour operator in the Philippines, responded to inquiries during the launch. Philippine Airlines Area Manager Dell Merano also presented the available flight itinerary and special airfare rates for those availing themselves of the VIP Tour package. A testimonial from Atty. Evelyn Alfonso, whose family and friends participate in the VIP Tour each year, showed how the group enjoyed VIP treatment in the tour.
Now in its 14th year, the VIP Tour is a major tourism activity of all Philippine foreign service posts in the U.S. The VIP Tour enables Filipino Americans and foreigners to visit the Philippines and experience Filipino culture and hospitality and immerse in the sights and sounds of various tourist destinations.
