El Nido Thread 3

[leelou]

I think August is still fine as long as walang typhoon. Last September kami nagpunta dun. Ayos naman weather. Gabi gabi lang naulan. Hehe. Sa morning during tours mainit pa rin.

Those who want a secluded beach, punta kayo sa Nacpan-Calitang! Napa-WOW talaga ko pagpunta namin dun! 

wag lang talagang mapatapat na may bagyo. we were in el nido last week of september, yup, sakto ni pedring! we were not able to go island hopping we enjoyed na lang swimming sa beachfront ng marina. we went to nacpan too, as suggested by our tour guide. haba lang ng byahe at maputik kaya hirap din yun jeep sa byahe. pero i agree, it was a nice beach. haba ng sandbar. kaya lang dahil nga sa bagyo, walang ulan pero ang lakas ng alon. we swam lang sa mababaw na part. tinuro pa sa amin  nung guide namin yung island na kakabili lang ni pacquiao. grabe, yaman talaga may-ari ng island

anyway, we vow to come back to el nido. maybe during summer naman

Hi mga sis need your help!  Booked for a 5/D-4N stay in Palawan for January 2012 and we're planning to go to Puerto Princesa and El Nido.  Here's our proposed itinerary, ok kaya?

DAY 1:   
8:55AM: ETD to Puerto Princesa, take van from PP to El Nido
4:00PM: ETA at El Nido

DAY 2:   
El Nido Tour (Island Hopping)

DAY 3:   
7:00AM: El Nido to PP
2:00PM: ETA at Puerto Princesa
Firefly Watching

DAY 4:
Underground River Tour, Ugong Rock Tour (Caving, Spelunking, Zipline)

DAY 5:
Morning: Honda Bay tour
Afternoon: Palawan City tour
5:25PM: Flight back to Manila

We're planning to stay at Marina Garden at El Nido and Royal Oberio for Palawan, are they ok and how's the location?

Is it better to go straight to El Nido before Palawan tour or vice versa?  Inisip kasi namin baka sobrang pagod kami pag sa huli na yung El Nido then straight to Manila flight.

Lastly, which van among Fort Wally, Eulen Joy and Lexus and pinaka-ok? which is pinaka worse?

We welcome any suggestions on our proposed itinerary to maximize our stay in Palawan.
Thank you very much for your help!

^ I've never been to el nido talaga to do island hopping, though natanaw ko siya on my way to linapacan-coron from taytay before at ilan taon na akong gumagawa ng planong di natutupad ... ok naman itinerary niyo sis, pero sabi ng karamihan sis, bitin ang 1day island hopping sa elnido, though for sure sa ganda masosolve ka na din..if keri niyo pa sis, you can add another half day of island hopping siguro dun sa Day 3, tapos 1pm(4th trip) na lang kayo alis ng el nido, then pagbalik niyo sa puerto diretso na kayo sa firefly watching.. last time kasi na we checked, yung firefly watching nag aaccept sila hangang 10:00 pm pero lahat naman ng nakaregister na by that time, inaaccomodate na nila hangang 1am ata.. mas maganda magpasched or reserve na kayo bago kayo magpaelnido for firefly watching sa PPC.. suggestion lang naman po

Di ko alam yung iba sis, pero ang Lexus well kept talaga mga vans nila, well ba-se sa mga ginagamit pasouth.. tsaka yung nakita ko ring pila ng vans pa norte..

just got back from our trip to Palawan yesterday! super enjoyed staying at El Nido! grabe, sa wakas nakapasok na kami ng Secret Beach. Tapos nakapagswim kami kasama ang baby shark :-) gusto ko ulit bumalik next year! :-D

[angelice_08]

hay sa wakas.. nakapagisland hopping din sa elnido multicab dala namin at nagstop pa kami kung san san kaya inabot kami ng 7hours na byahe

the "feel" is almost the same as island hopping in CORON, wala lang mga entrance fees
TOUR A&B lang kami in one day.. sayang a&c sana suggestion ko but almost everyone in the group agreed to A&B kasi mas magkakalapit daw.. next time na lang daw ulet yung iba

busy ata si sis tiara ah...

[flowercondahon]

just arrived from El Nido & PPS getaway....whew! sarap ng feeling na nakapagrelax ka at naexplore ang isa sa magagandang lugar sa pilipinas... Day 2 & 3 kami nag island hopping ang Tour A & C ang ginawa namin. we'll be back by next year for B & D tour...
