==History==<br />
<br />
The University of the Philippines Travel Society is a service-oriented, non-sectarian, non-profit, and non-political student organization based in Asian Institute of Tourism, University of the Philippines, Diliman.<br />
<br />
In the past 25 years, UPTS has embarked on various projects that have been faithful to its main objectives, that of promoting domestic travel among students, serving as a training ground for tourism-oriented students, encouraging social and environmental awareness, maintaining and developing excellent standards of service, and promoting brotherhood and camaraderie among its members. <br />
<br />
The organization has upheld its objectives by coming up with trips to various regions in the Philippines and by organizing numerous events while simultaneously leading environmental concerns such as tree-planting missions.<br />

==Activities==<br />
====Boodle Feast====<br />
A traditional Filipino lunch with the objective to strengthen the bond of the students, the different organizations, the professors and of the administration of the Institute. <br />
<br />
====Influx====<br />
To kick-off the organization's 25th anniversary, UP Travel Society organized Influx. This event was aimed to promote the organization and causes for the rest of the year.<br />
<br />
====Hyped====<br />
From the success of Influx, the UP Travel Society organized its first fund-raiser party of the year for the benefit of Musmosyalan. Hyped brought back the old school from timeless beats and fashion of the 80's and the 90's.<br />
<br />
====Bottoms Up====<br />
An all night lounge party, in celebration of UP Travel Society’s 25th Anniversary, and a fund raiser for Musmosyalan, the annual excursion program of the organization for the kids our beneficiaries.<br />
<br />
====Musmosyalan====<br />
Coined from the words 'musmos' and 'pasyalan', Musmosyalan is considered as the heart of the organization, an annual charity excursion program for the less privileged kids.<br/><br />
Started in 1993, the program has gone to different tourist destinations like Subic, Tagaytay, La Mesa Eco-Park, Manila Ocean Park, and other spots within the Metro.<br/><br />
Most recent benificiaries are kids from Gawad Kalinga - Telus, Child of Hope Foundation, and He Cares Foundation.<br />
