About this trip
Palawan's reputation is built on scenery like this — limestone cliffs, hidden lagoons and water so clear it barely looks real. This five-day trip covers the two big draws, Puerto Princesa's Underground River and the island-hopping around El Nido, with a small group and a guide handling the logistics.
It's an easy-paced trip built around a couple of standout days rather than constant movement, so there's room to actually enjoy the places rather than just tick them off.
What you'll do
- Boat through the Puerto Princesa Underground River
- Snorkel the reefs and coves around El Nido
- Visit Secret Beach and Hidden Beach by boat
- Island-hop between Palawan's limestone karst islands
- Catch sunset over the bay
- Easy pace, suited to those who want a relaxed island trip rather than a packed itinerary
- Private rooms throughout, so no dorm-sharing
- Runs over Christmas and New Year, worth booking with that timing in mind
