Good to know before you go
The currency is the Philippine peso and English is widely spoken alongside Filipino. Traffic is famously heavy, so skip driving yourself and rely on the Grab ride-hailing app, the easy, affordable go-to; commuter trains cover some routes but get very crowded. Stay aware of your belongings in busy areas, and the country is welcoming to visitors.
Entry requirements and health
No visa needed
Good news: with a Canadian passport you can just show up for a short tourist stay, no visa needed. Keep an eye on how long you're allowed to stay so your trip fits.
Vaccines and health
Many travellers get vaccinated against hepatitis A and typhoid, which spread through food and water. Malaria is present in some areas, so ask a clinic whether antimalarials make sense for your route.
General orientation for a Canadian passport on a short tourist trip, not legal or medical advice. Confirm with official sources, and see a travel health clinic four to six weeks before departure.
