This was the most magnificent experience, we were spoiled rotten on our private boat. Every beach that we stopped at was more beautiful than the last and our crew were incredible. For a relatively small cost the private boat was well worth it as we travelled at our own pace and enjoyed the serenity of secret spots. A absolute must do.

What a great experience! This is definitely a must-try in Palawan, El Nido! The staff were incredibly accommodating, friendly, and assisted us very well throughout the entire trip, making everything smooth and enjoyable. We went island hopping to Hidden Beach, Star Beach, where we had our lunch, and lastly to Big Lagoon, where we had a wonderful experience kayaking while enjoying the breathtaking views. It was truly an unforgettable experience that I would highly recommend to anyone visiting El Nido!

We rented a catamaran for the whole day. The crew was very attentive, pleasant, and professional. The lunch was excellent, and they took us to amazing spots. We highly recommend it.

We booked the full day tour for a group of seven friends. Very good service from all the staff on board. The private beach - where they give you lunch - very good for snorkeling and swimming. The tours and the schedule was modified to appreciate the sunset sailing. Super recommended.

Sailboat cancelled as there were not enough bookings. Transferred to a half day speedboat that was excellent. 3 stops, kayaking thru small lagoon and lunch and swimming at a private beach. Speedboat had only 10 pax so not crowded. Excellent, great crew, very helpful.

This is an absolute must do! Can not recommend this enough, the boat and crew were amazing and the scenery throughout the entire tour was incredible! We did multiple tours while in El Nido and this tour was a perfect balance of relaxation and upscale exploring!

Michael and his team were amazing how they took care of us. Of course its a bit more pricy, but on a private speedboat, lunch on a private iskand, with such a great its worth every peso. If you are not on a budget its a must

We had a fantastic time on this whole day island hopping Catamaran cruise. There was not really enough wind to put out the sails but motoring around was fine. There was only a total of 7 people on the cruise plus 5 staff so everyone had all the room they could want. Bean bag chairs on the decks for everyone and plenty of room inside if you’re tired of the sun. My only hesitance to recommend this cruise without booking it is a private cruise is they allow themselves to book up to 30 passengers. With 30 passengers the boat would be very crowded and the experience would not be the same. Up to 15 I would say would be comfortable. Also the pricing is such that if 15 people booked the cruise they could book it as Private for a lower price than booking individually. At least that is the way I understood the pricing. For us we just waited to the last minute to book so we could be relatively sure there would not be a big group onboard. The staff were wonderful and the condition of the boat was perfect. They use a smaller motorized rubber boat to get you to shores and docks and handle this process really well. Lunch was prepared prior the cruise and packed on board then served at their Private Beach location. Relatively good considering it was cooked in the morning. You could also bring snacks on board if you wanted.
