Day 2: Underground River Tour, travel to El Nido

Stop At: Buenavista View Deck, Puerto Princesa, Palawan, Philippines
Get a glimpse of Ulugan Bay on this view deck. This also marks the halfway point between the City proper and Sabang wharf.
Duration: 15 minutes

Stop At: Puerto Princesa Underground River, Sabang, Puerto Princesa, Palawan Island 5300 Philippines
The highlight of this day. The Underground River is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is a vital part of Puerto Princesa's tourism circuit. To get inside, you'll be boarding a kayak together with other guests. An accompanying audio guide will tell you more about the cave and its story.
Duration: 45 minutes

Stop At: El Nido, El Nido, Palawan Island, Palawan Province, Mimaropa
After the Underground River Tour, your guide will drop you off at a junction where another van will take you to El Nido. The town of El Nido is located at the northern tip of the main Palawan Island, some 160 miles from Puerto Princesa City Airport. Along the way, you'll be glad to see the changing landscape - from the urban Puerto Princesa to the rural Palawan.
Duration: 6 hours

Meals included:
• Breakfast: Breakfast provided by the hotel
• Lunch
Accommodation included: Overnight stay at a 2-star hotel located within El Nido town proper

Day 3: Island Hopping Tour A at Bacuit Bay

Stop At: Big Lagoon, El Nido, Palawan Island Philippines
Big Lagoon is dotted with dark limestone cliffs. The entrance to the lagoon has shallow water, but the emerald color of the water indicates the deeper areas. Enjoy the view!
Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Secret Lagoon, El Nido, Palawan, Philippines
Only accessible through a small cave, this hideaway lagoon is a popular destination for sightseeing.
Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Simizu Island, El Nido, Palawan Island Philippines
Simizu Island, also called Shimizu Island, is one of the numerous islands dotting Bacuit Bay in El Nido, Palawan. This small island is part of the El Nido Island Hopping Tour A package, so it can get crowded during midday.
Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Seven Commando Beach, El Nido, Palawan Island Philippines
Its long sloping stretch of fine sand and coconut trees welcome the guests after a long day of island hopping. It is yet to be confirmed how the beach got its name, but one consistent story is that of the 7 soldiers who got stranded here during WWII. Whether that story is true or not, the important thing is happily spending your much-deserved holiday here before marching back to work.
Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Payong-Payong Beach, Miniloc Island, El Nido, Palawan Island Philippines
Payong-Payong Beach is one of the popular white-sand beaches on Miniloc Island. Here, you can either get the thrill of swimming amidst the strong waves or just savor the chill vibe of splashing around gentle waves. Payong-Payong is usually an alternative to Simizu Island if the latter becomes too crowded for visitors to enjoy their lunch.
Duration: 1 hour

Meals included:
• Breakfast: To be provided by the hotel
• Lunch
Accommodation included: Overnight stay at a 2-star hotel located within El Nido town proper

Day 4: Island Hopping Tour C at Bacuit Bay

Stop At: Hidden Beach, Matinloc Island, El Nido, Palawan Island Philippines
Hidden Beach is one of the places you’ll visit when you book Tour C. It is far, but it is worth the trip because of its secluded location, fine white sand, and clear waters. It has a rugged appearance, giving it a raw appeal. Relax on the beach, swim in the waters, and just marvel at the stunning limestone surrounding it.
Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Matinloc Shrine, Matinloc Island, Bayan ng El Nido, Palawan, Philippines
Matinloc Shrine is an abandoned site hidden at the foot of towering karst cliffs on the western coast of Matinloc Island. More formally known as the Shrine of Our Lady of Matinloc, it was built in 1982. The place has been completely neglected (with the main building almost empty), but tourists are still allowed to visit. While others may find this as a spiritual oasis, most tours make a stop here for the view.
Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Secret Lagoon Beach, El Nido, Palawan Island Philippines
Miniloc Island’s Secret Lagoon (also Hidden Lagoon) is actually an open secret, and a very popular one at that. Concealed behind the towering karst cliffs, the Secret Lagoon seems like a precious masterpiece that the dark limestone walls need to protect at all cost. If it’s your first time in El Nido, make sure you don’t miss this one.
Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Helicopter Island, El Nido, Philippines
Helicopter Island, officially named Dilumacad Island, got its name because of the shape it takes when you see it from a distance. Once you get closer, it’s soft cream-colored sand and cerulean waters will lure you in and keep you entranced. It is a good place to relax, unwind, and enjoy the beautiful beachscape.
Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Tapiutan Beach, El Nido, Palawan Island Philippines
A great beach for relaxing and also offers spot for snorkeling.
Duration: 1 hour

Meals included:
