We were considering Cambodia or Vietnam but have been recieving mixed reviews from travellers since history / monuments donot interest us. we are looking for fun, excitement, adventure, romantic in our holiday. plz suggest..thanks

Well, if you are looking for a budget holiday, cross the Maldives off your list.

Indonesia is a good option for you - Bali or for more adventure, one of the other islands. The Philippines might suit you as well.

"we are looking for fun, excitement, adventure, romantic in our holiday" - aren't we all? Care to narrow it down a little as to exactly what does interest you? Food, culture, the arts, mountain climbing, flora, fauna etc.

Sorry, I've never been to the Philippines, so can't help you with specifics. Do take a look at a guidebook for the Philippines. I know they have some lovely beaches.

"Budget" is also affected by the conversion rate of the Rupee to wherever you travel. Budget for a US traveller may not work for someone from India.

Use the search box on the Asia forum and type in Philippines for previous postings.
