Old guy zip line and underground river
Robert B,May 21, 2026
- Review from Viator
4.00If you do the zip line be prepared to go strait up the hill seamed like 10 miles but not really. Took me 30 minutes but then I'm 80 years old. Lot of resting. But was really fun once I got to the top and got my first zip line ride. The underground river was interesting couldn't take any pictures really dark inside. The guide had a head lamp that highlighted the different designs and the head set explained the the river very well. The lunch was okay a lot to chose from. Wish there more people to help on the zip line climb. Would recommend.

5.00The Puerto Princesa Underground River Tour was well-organized and smooth from start to finish. Inside the cave, the audio guide walked us through the history, geology, and wildlife of the river, which made the experience richer. The rock formations were stunning; overall, a must-do activity. Special mention to our tour guide, who handled the group with impressive professionalism. They managed the schedule well, kept everyone comfortable, and provided clear instructions throughout the tour. Their insights about the history, wildlife, and conservation efforts added so much depth to the experience.

5.00The tour services provided were superb. The van was comfortable, clean and well air conditioned. The guide was helpful and informative. The staff went out of this way to help our mobility challenged 82 year old sister safety enjoy the experience. The lunch provided was excellent. The underground river is awesome wonderful no matter what tour agency one chooses. But the tour agency made the experience for our group flawless from pickup to drop off. Kudos!
