5.00Had a wonderful time with the private tour A of the islands today with our guide, Jonard and supported by boat captain, Philip and helper, Alwin. The weather was lovely at the beginning, and we were able to take advantage of it to kayak through the Big Lagoon and a hidden cave. We also had a fun time snorkeling just off the waters of Shimizu Island - Jonard was at hand to help us novices to snokel around the coves. After lunch, the rain came but the boat was in good hands and navigated through the choppy waters to the Seven Commando Beach where we chilled a bit around the beach before calling it a day. Overall we had a blast and would love to return again for a different island tour next time!
A must visit place!

5.00The Underground River was absolutely stunning! The cave's rock formations were mesmerizing, and the guided tour was both informative and fun. The peaceful boat ride made it even more magical. Everything was well-organized, and the staff were fantastic. A must-see in Palawan! 🛶✨
