@thetravelintern 👇THIS is why Davao should be on your 2026 travel list 🇵🇭🏝️🏔️ We took a ~4hr @flyscoot direct flight from @Changi Airport to check out this lesser-known city in the Philippines and were pleasantly surprised to find mountains, crystal clear waters and a bustling city! Here are some reasons why you should check it out before it goes viral: – It’s home to Mount Apo, the tallest mountain in the Philippines – Crystal clear waters are a 20min ferry ride away – Easy access to nature sights – Many cafes and spas to unwind in the city – Rich cultural history – Friendly locals – Durian capital of the Philippines Psst, Scoot flies to Davao twice daily with fares from S$141* — so this is your sign to book your flight! *One-way, taxes included.
