ITINERARY

PUERTO PRINCESA AND THE UNDERGROUND RIVER

You cannot visit Palawan and not stop by the city of Puerto Princesa. This is the capital island of the island and there are direct flights from Manila.

Home to one of wonders of nature – The Underground River, Puerto Princesa

Puerto Princesa is a bustling yet cozy city where you can stumble upon various interesting artisanal stores and local diners featuring delicious seafood. Besides the town’s uplifting and hospitable atmosphere, the town is also home of the distinguished Underground River. This impressive subterranean river will have your jaw dropped with its remarkable lime karst formations and majestic cave systems. Don’t miss out the chance to observe this unmatched beauty in person with a captivating boat ride.

BAY OF EL NIDO

The iconic town of El Nido is truly a paradise for nature lovers as the natural scenery along with marine life diversity of the island is simply unmatched. Located in the northern part of Palawan, this is the perfect location for admiring the pristine beaches and bays where you can snorkel to observe abundant underwater creatures. To fully discover the secrets of the rock formations and various islands of the bay, you need to spend at least 2-3 days here.

If you're still intrigued with the beaches and want to explore more (which is understandable, it's Palawan!), we can always organize an island-hopping trip for you. Enjoy nature to the fullest with kayak rides through hidden lagoons or snorkel up close and personal with the incredible Palawan marine life.

RELAXING ON PARADISE BEACHES

In Palawan, it is time for your relaxing seaside getaway on one of many destinations, especially selected for you:

  • Considered one of the most beautiful in the world, the Nacpan beach is widely known for its pristine white sand dotted with romantic, leaning palm trees. The azure and peaceful water will wash away all your stress and worries, creating space for the ultimate indulgent.
  • The second option that we offer is the private islands on one of the resorts we have selected for your journey. We will drop you off by boat from El Nido itself so you can freely explore the picturesque coastline.
DIVING IN TUBBATAHA

Palawan is a also a heaven for diving! The vicinity of Tubbataha National Park is one of the most gorgeous locations in the Philippines and even one of the best diving sites of the world. We will organize a diving program for each trip individually and it usually lasts around 5-7 days.
