4.00A little disappointed we expected a wow!!!! Christmas tree style but hey, we did we saw fireflies in Puerto princesa Count 1400 php x person meal included (chicken, shrimp, pork, vegetables, vegetables and watermelon plus a bottle of water ) rv at 6 pm at the hotel return 9:30 pm. A van takes you to take the boat to the port then cross and when you are in the mangrove change boat to have a closer to nature. The guide will wave his red light, you will look at the trees and see the fireflies

5.00I was picked up at the hotel and driven to Iwahig. Travel time was so 30-45 min. First there was a delicious dinner where I was served beach crabs for the first time. This was followed by an entertaining tour of the mangroves with fascinating experiences through thousands of fireflies in the trees. There were only three of us in the boat and we were paddled through the mangroves at night and moonlight. Another highlight were the algae in the water, which lit up with every touch, for example with the paddle or the hand. The two boaters were friendly and tried to bring us closer to these experiences.
Perfect experience
