What people are saying about Palawan

The advertisement said they would pick you up in an air conditioned van and we got picked up by what the locals call a “new van” which is basically another name for a tricycle, but it seats more. So immediately I was skeptical, but they explained that they had a lot of people on the tour that day and I don’t personally mind riding in the native style The tour guides were awesome and understood English pretty well, and had great senses of humor. The locations that we traveled to were all absolutely stunning! Without a doubt, the most beautiful water and beaches I have ever seen! I highly recommend renting the clear kayaks to cruise around in and I also recommend either renting or bringing snorkel and mask. There are vendors that will meet you as you’re getting on the boat to sell you water boots, masks, snorkels, flippers, sunscreen, etc, but they’ll charge excessively compared to other shops in town. You’ve been warned

The islands we visited were very beautiful, they were little paradise islands! Though it was raining later on still the experience was great. Lunch prepared by the team was very delicious. Thank you, guys, for such great experience!

Great tour visiting beautiful beaches and highlights of El Nido! Lunch was delicious and guides were friendly and professional! These tours and sightseeing spots are crowded so be prepared for that!

Typhoon cancelled our itinerary but the guides did great with an alternative and we had a lovely day

Kim and James were awesome! They made it so much fun. Very attentive and courteous.
