<\/p>\nThere are three things that we cannot deny with the Philippines in mind. For one, the\u00a0country can be considered a hot pot of flavors, picturesque sights, and outstanding local craftsmen and entrepreneurs who are undeniably the country’s pride.<\/p>\n

With just four simple steps,\u00a0you may now experience the travel goal you have dreamed of for a very long time: go to the “Experience Tab”, enter your place of choice, choose from their list, and\u00a0book.<\/p>\n Some of these “experiences” include food crawls in Binondo and Intramuros, Manila as well as hikes\u00a0in Mt. Romelo in Laguna and Mt. Talamitam in Quezon. A trip to Pahiyas and Gumaca Festival can also be experienced among others.<\/p>\n With this platform, you can also meet local guides of your own choosing, and contact them via “in-app” communication.<\/p>\n For those with a dream to be the traveling encyclopedia of places to see, you can also be a Local Guide yourself! You just have to be (1) an expert of the location, (2) an enthusiast of the culture therein, and (3) a person who is open for talks of improvement as he steps up his game. Moreover, a license issued by the government is a plus for those who want to be a travel guide, not only for validation but to ensure the safety of Tralulu’s travelers.<\/p>\n The idea of Tralulu came from Andrew Cua, a graduate of Ateneo de Manila University, together with his co-founders. Cua and his team, who had a heart for culture and the locals, won the competition in the 2015 ASEAN Global Startup Youth, which paved the way for\u00a0them to generate funds and launch Tralulu in seven South East Asian countries: Malaysia, Indonesia, Myanmar, Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, and the Philippines.<\/p>\n So, for those who have a heart and curiosity for the country’s culture, whether you are a local or an expat, try Tralulu, where you can experience traveling in an authentic way like locals do.<\/p>\n For more information on bookings and applications to be a local guide, you can visit www.tralulu.com<\/a> or their Facebook page at www.facebook.com\/tralulutravels<\/a>.<\/p>\n Written by Chin Sanigan<\/em><\/span> Richly explore with Tralulu, where you book and connect with locals who will guide you to the best travel experiences, available in over 7 countries in Southeast Asia!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":67355,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15752],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-67354","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business"],"acf":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2022\/09\/Tralulu-1-e1532404994844.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/67354","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=67354"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/67354\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":67356,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/67354\/revisions\/67356"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/67355"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=67354"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=67354"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=67354"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/business\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2018\/07\/37044844_1482939141851603_2832387475509346304_o-819x1024.jpg\")
