With this tour, you'll get to visit one of the longest navigable underground river in the world. With the help of your guide, you'll get to know more of Puerto Princesa & the wonderful flora and fauna found only in our island.

The activity includes pick up from your hotel within 15 kilometers of the airport. We will advise you of your exact pick up time before 7 PM the day prior so you know what time you'll prepare. Have a heavy breakfast because travel time from the city to the wharf is 2 hours.

Waiting time is inevitable considering that this is one of the most popular tours in Puerto Princesa. Despite this, your guide will endeavor to provide you with one of the most memorable trips in Palawan.

Lunch will be served at a local restaurant and after, you have the option to join a zip line flight and help the local community who organizes this activity, so expect to be in groups with side trip as this is a shared/joiner package tour.

You'll be back at your hotel between 4-5PM.

The driver and tour guide provided exceptional service, exhibiting friendliness and helpfulness throughout the trip. Their expertise ensured our comfort and included insightful information regarding local history, environmental details, and recommendations. We were picked up from the hotel and dropped off at the hotel. They made sure we were not waiting for long periods for the river tour by filling in the time with side activities. Truly a perfect way to see the area that we were not aware of e.g. the mangroves. Would recommend to everyone.
A great way to see some...

A great way to see some countryside and seaside. Easy, with lots of great people to help make the experience great. From Puerto Princesa there is a fairly long, winding ride. Also, west footwear that you can wear in water because there is a good chance you will step in shallow water. The guides and driver were all great.
Was fun and exciting.

The underground river really is an unforgettable experience. Dont think and just do it. The mangrove boat tour was also very educational and fun.

The Underground River is beautiful, truly a unique experience. I wish the van had a microphone so we could hear the guide better. She was fantastic regardless. The Mangrove Paddleboat was interesting but not something I would go out of my way to recommend. Ziplining over the water was stunning. But be prepared for a but of a hike to the starting point. Ps. Wear shoes that are suitable for water. Your feet will get wet. Flip-flops are fine.
