El Nido
Tour A is most beloved because it will bring you to see not one but two of three beautiful lagoons located around Miniloc Island: either Small Lagoon or Big Lagoon, and Secret Lagoon. Swimming and snorkeling there is just amazing. Clear water, numerous fishes… you name it! Tour A will then take you to Shimizu island, where you can snorkel and see corals and/or relax on the white sand beach. This is also where, most of the time, your boat will stop for lunch. With its great limestone cliffs covered with vegetation, a representative of the geological beauty of El Nido. At the end of the day, the tour will stop of 7 Commando Beach, which has a long white sand beach, and where you can also find a little bar that will serve you refreshing drinks. While snorkeling there, you may encounter a few sea turtles, so keep your eyes open!

There is a reason why so many people choose to take Tour C. It’s simply because it really is a great one! This is the island hopping tour locals will recommend you do in priority, along with Tour A. Tour C starts with a stop on one of the most famous island of the Bacuit archipelago. Its traditional name is Dilumacad island, but it’s more commonly known as Helicopter island because of its shape – although, some think it looks more like a camel, a dolphin or even a dinosaur. You’ll have to see with your own eyes to decide which form it reminds you of the most! After leaving Helicopter island and its beautiful white sand and rocky beach, we will land on Matinloc Shrine. This place used to host a convent and school which are now abandoned and that you can walk around. After lunch, you will be taken to three beaches: Secret Beach, Star Beach and Hidden Beach.

5.00Describe the service you experienced: Two stars. Delay in pick up in the airport. We were dropped off the moped terminal in dt. El Nido and we have to wait for 45 minutes for a transfer to our horrendous 1 star or no star hotel. We have to pay the 50 pesos ourselves for the tricyle who we booked ourselves to bring us to the hotel because there were no prior arrangements. We were told the van that picked us up in Puerto Princesa airport (we were bumped off the first van and had to wait for another one) were to take us directly to the hotel upon arrival in El Nido but did not happen. There were no organized agenda at all. If I did not voice out my discontent on why is it that we are clueless of what the name of the hotel is; what time is the excursions; why is our accommodation not as suitable for the amount of money that we paid, etc. Tell us how you liked the room: The worst. Booked two single/double beds, ended up sharing a queen bed with room mate. Small room-no chair inside, cramped space, feels like a backpacker place. For the price we paid, we could have found a much, much better hotel if we searched independently and at a reasonable price. Talk about the location & amenities: (Abad's Place) Location is near or almost dt. Bathroom is horrendous. No shower curtain; water flow is so limited; electricity comes and goes; no soap, basic shampoo provided; we have to request toilet paper everyday. Breakfast, which is included, is a guessing game. You go to the restaurant on the 4th floor and whatever is available that morning, that is what you will have-example-egg and corned beef; egg and hot dog, all served with rice and instant coffee which the hot water, you have to wait while it is being boiled. That's it. Don't expect a choice or bread at all. Say what you liked best & least: The location is good; the excursion/attraction is great, the people in the cramped, no star hotel are polite and helpful, but that's about it. Everything else is horrible after that. I booked this excursion because it is by Viator and I expected the best because the company is known for that. Me and my friend regret booking this excursion.
