Hi there,

I just want to commend you for your blog. Have been using it as reference for our stay in Puerto in November. Your detailed account of your trip has been very helpful. Especially with the entrace and boat fees because arranged tours in Puerto have become soooo expensive! So now, we’re also just thinking of hiring a van to get around. Thanks again!

Cheers,
Chared

Thanks a lot..laki ng natipid ko..nag book na ako ng package tour pero na cancel ko after reading your blog..nag compute ako and more than half na diffrerence sa price..

Hi Guys, thanks a lot for your kind words. To God be the glory!

@Charlo, the boat rates are good for the whole boat, but there is a maximum seating capacity. I’m not sure how many though, our boat is relatively small it’ll seat a group of 6 comfortably.

possible na na wag na mag van rental para mas matipid? could anyone please tell me pano mga way to go to underground river and honda bay kung commute lang. cecilia.orito@incoho.com

hi. your blog is very informative. my family (with 2 kids) is scheduled for a palawan trip this march 29-31, 2010. May i know the contact number and person of your tour guide for the honda bay. I’ve already inquired about the honda bay trip in our hotel (legend palawan) and it costs P1,300 per head inclusive of the transpo, boat, lunch. Pero mukhang mas mura yun ginawa nio. Can you suggest for an itenarary for 3days 2 nights ( our flight is 9:20 am from manila and 4:45pm departure on mar 31)…. gusto rin sana namin ang day tour sa Dos Palmas, but i dont know if our time can still make it. I know that the following are the possible activities , city tour; honda bay; underground river tour and the day tour in dos palmas. thanks so much….

Hi! Thanks for your blog on Palawan tours. My family with 2 kids are planning to go to Puerto for 3 days. I just got a family package for our transfers & accomodation only, we don’t have tour yet. I am looking for tour only, could you suggest any? Is it advisable, if we just hire a van, and we just pay for our entrances and lunch? What’s the number of Mang Danny, baka matulungan nya kami. Thanks a lot and God bless!

Hi! first kudos to this blog it is indeed helpful, I just have an inquiry though is there a huge possibility that the rates quoted in this blog would change during the peak season(summer) because we’re a group of 10 already negotiating for a tour package and based on this blog we would save more if we’ll do it the cowboy style but then again we’re worried that the rates might change once we’re there by MAY 14-17. Anyone who has any suggestions about this..please help us out…thanks

Dean, here’s Kuya Danny’s number -> 0910 666 1767

^^sheng,

we’ll be going to palawan on may 16-18., when do you plan to have the honda bay tour? we are also looking for alternate way to save.

Hi emjee, maraming salamat sa pag appreciate mo sa blog namin, glad you liked it. Sa mga sakayan at babaan, sorry kasi di namin alam eh, pwede ka siguro magtanong tanong dun.

Sa Honda bay at underground river, may mga bangka na talaga dun at regulated ang rates, may pupuntahan ka lang na parang desk and dun ka magbabayad, sila ang mag didispatch ng bangka para sa inyo.

HTH, Jeff

hi…i like ur blog…i will use this as our reference for our travel this june…we will have a 3D/2N stay in there…seems ur sked perfectly fits…

hi! I’d be in puerto prinsesa this july 9-12. I’d be alone. hehe. can I join a group who would be there on those same days? on the 10th, sa underground river sana ako. then by the next day, honda bay naman. i understand na mahal ang boat trip pag ako lang mag-isa. hmmm. if my mga interested makipagpartner up, kindly email me po. kiall20@yahoo.com

pwede po ba malaman ang rates?hehe. thanks po.

Hi, san ba pwede mag stay malapit dito sa honda bay? we’re gonna be at puerto princesa kc by september. thanks! great blog.

Hi Harriet, you may check out Puerto Pension Inn, that’s where we stayed when we were in Puerto Princesa.

@Harriet, i’m so sorry I’m not familiar with Isabel Mansion or Casa Linda. Maybe you can ask Kuya Danny what would he recommend. Hope you have a great trip.

hi…is the duchess pension house is near the airport…thanks

hello! i would just like to ask about kuya danny. is he a tour guide? do we have to give him a tip or may porsyento na siya sa binibigay nya na offers? thank you!

Plans to go to Puerto this august, 3d 2n, advice me of the budget hotel and only plans to go honda bay island particualrly snake, starfish, luli and pandan

hi….. talagang magANDA ang honda bay sana kung may pera lang ako gusto ko sanang maka ponta jan sa puenta prinsesa at maranmasan ko namang magtour jan…….at pls addme ha……………

Hi i agree this is a very informative blog…the best pa dahil may mga price which made it possible for me to make an estimation ng gastos.
we are planning to go sa puerto princesa sa september 26-29, 2010.
dalawa lang kami naghahanap kami ng kashare sa boat for honda bay island hopping sa sept.27 baka may gustong makishare and sa sept.28 underground river……if may mga magpupunta din dun ng ganung date you can email me at steph_dejesus@yahoo.com

Possible po ba na makakuha kami ng kashare sa boat sa boat terminal sa honda bay?…para may makashare kami sa bayad sa boat.

Stephanie, yes it’s possible but you may have to wait, and if there’s a group that is willing to share the boat with you.

Take note that, usually its your call when to go on and off and which island, so consider that as well if you’re sharing the boat with someone else.

Grace, its probably still the same, if not, the price difference would not be that much.

HELLO, GUSTO PO NAMIN MAGPUNTA NG JAN 1 TO JAN 3 DYAN SA PALAWAN,YUNG PANG DI NA MAGPAPAPACKAGE TOUR YUNG SARILING SIKAP PO PARA MAKATIPID PO,ANY HELP PO…THANKS PO

Hi Jeff,
I would really recommend your blog to my friends…Just like to ask kung kaya po ba the whole day yung Underground and Honda Bay? From what I have read, Underground is only a 2 hr ride from Puerto Princesa, so balikan it would take us 4 hrs transport and in underground river it only takes 30-45 mins….so i just think na pede pa sa hapon ng 1 pm – 2pm ung Honda Bay…is there a possibility for this? Thanks

God Bless!!!

anu naman mangyayare after that??? hmmm!!!

better to watch the star at the sky for free… am I right???

pls.. konting advice naman po regarding this!!!

tnx..

cool blog i appreciate it.. just wanna ask for some travel details and some pertinent contact person and nice and affordable accommodation u can recommend to us,, we’re planning to visit the place,,, tnx my number 09486320126 God bless more power to you.

Hi! Is there an island hopping tour including dos palmas resort even for just a short time? Coz we only have one day to have island tours. If there is, can i ask for the contact number and where I can find them? Thanks much!

I won’t do it by myself again, never….when i went there last year february 2011, nag hire din ako ng van going to underground river, the travel went smooth hanggang sa ugong rock nag enjoy naman, then had lunch in a restaurant tipid na tipid kasi, unfortunately, the driver did not advise me na sobra palang dami ang pumupunta doon at wala nang boats na masakyan, marami pa kaming nakapila, by 3pm, luckily nakasakay na rin kami sa boat, salamat naman, pagdating sa underground, we were welcomed by sobrang haba ng pila na papasok sa cave….to make the long story short hindi rin kami nakapasok dahil wala na raw permit to enter, ubos na at marami pa ang nakapila….such a waste of time…hassle talaga, sobra.
Hiyang hiya ako sa mga kasama ko, we were 9, fyi.
One thing i have learned it is better to pay an arranged tour, nakakatulong ka pa sa pagpapalago ng turismo because your money goes to helping service providers accredited by the department of tourism.

hello po! ask ko lang po, would it possible for us to have a half day tour in honda bay, afternoon po sana mga around 1pm.. 3D2N lang po kasi kami. and how much would it cost kasi 2 lang kami? thanks a lot =D

sa Pambato Reef naman wag kayo matukot sa lalim pagbaba ng hagdan langoy lang kayo ng konti then boom ,magaganda na mga corals…
and also be careful sa mga sea urchins sa Pandan Island …

HI ms. brenda.. we’ll have a schedule for palawan this march 7 to 9, ask lng po kung saan nyo nakuha ang 1100 for PPUR and 1000 for honda bay.. tnx..

hihi thank you ms. brenda.. Tc
