Profile Youth Trip Philippines (YTRiP) is a youth-led non-government organization that promotes sustainable local tourism and responsible travel to develop love for country, heritage, and everything else Pinoy.
We believe that tourism is not just physical movement from one place to the next, but the shift from one mindset to another. We see travel as an exercise of socio-economic power.
With our theme, PiliPinas: Piliin ang Pilipinas (Choose Philippines), we hope to enrich and take care of the places we visit and live in, and at the same time, enhance our experiences and way of life.
Our programs are set to encourage and enable more Filipinos to travel locally, to seek a deeper understanding of Filipino culture, and to support local communities and products.
Founded in 2006.

Our Mission
YTRIP envisions a generation of Filipinos who truly
value and take care of their natural and cultural heritage,
support Philippine communities and products, and responsibly
choose for sustainability.
We aim to provide people with access to Philippine
sites, arts, environment, and culture; to create spaces
for self-discovery and community-building, to enable
travel and change, and to encourage experiences that
will let people see the Philippines with new eyes.
Sa amin, ang pagkilala sa sarili ay kasabay sa
pagkilala sa bayan, ang Pilipinas.
