[Cari]

Thank you mga sis!

[5ive]

What luxury accommodation in Puerto Princesa can you recommend? We'll be going there for 4D3N this October to spend my bf's bday. Gusto ko sana mag-Daluyon kami pag nag-UGR kami. Possible ba yung ganitong itinerary:

Day 1: Departure
           Check-in
           City Tour
           Firefly Watching
Day 2: Honda Bay
Day 3: Check-out
           Head to Sabang
           Check-in at Daluyon
Day 4: UGR
           Check-out
           Head back to PPS

Our flight going back to MNL is at 8pm pa naman. TIA!

hi GTers!  Malapit na ang PPC trip namin ng hubby kid with my 5 year old kid in tow.  Our trip is on Feb10-13.

We are planning to have a DIY HONDA BAY trip. So baka meron sa inyo na gusto sumabay sa boat para maka less sa boat rental   Im planning to do the honday bay on our 2nd day Feb 11...  I have read many tips that DIY for this is better  because hawak mo oras mo not just for the reason na you can have the boat all by yourself...

For those na interested, PM na lang po or comment na din dito   TIA

hi, pwede ba magpunta sa irawan eco park just for the zipline? and ano ano yung ibang destinations malapit dun? we're thinking of going to irawan kasi on our last day and visit the other nearby destinations, our flight back to manila leaves at 6pm pa naman thanks!

Mga sis, OK ba yung mga deals sa Metrodeal and such? May darating kasi akong friend this March and gusto ko sana complete package na para hindi masyadong hassle... or if you guys could recommend a better alternative...

Yes sis u can choose zipline lang sa irawan....u can choose other activities din dun. We did the skywalk first then river walk then mag feed ka ng fish (actuallly hindi naman nag walk, nag dip ka lang ng paa tapos lots of small fishes to feed, katuwa din) then the zipline na...

Our guide si Kuya louie brought us to irawan first, then nearest sa irawan na is crocodile farm. Yan 2 yan ang malapit sa isat isa...then mitras ranch, bakers hill then the last one is binautan weaving along that area, yun ang same way those three...

Personally sis, parang mas type ko yun zipline sa mitras ranch kasi mas open sa view. U can see honday bay from there. Plus 4 stages yun sa mitras. Sa irawan zipline puro jungle lang makikita mo according to my hubby. He did the zipline. He enjoyed it nonetheless including the 2 foreiGn girls...But they said that the zipline in irawan ecopark is the longest in asia...

Kuya Louie drives the trike we used sa mga tour namin, all DIY and it was much better kasi hawak namin oras....and kuya is really mabait. He would advise u were to go the best and where to go first to maximise time. Hindi oportunista....

2nd time ko mag-PPS kasama ng friends ko last week.

We planned to have our entire trip be covered by sis Tiara kaso when we were going to contact her a month before our trip, 2x na nag-reschedule si Tiger Air. Thinking na twice sila nag-resched, we decided to do things DIY na lang except for the UGR tour na pina-arrange na lang namin sa hotel. And nag-reschedule na naman sya a week before our flight -- geez. (Sorry sis tiara...)

Over the three times that the airline rescheduled our flight, yung early evening arrival namin sa PPS naging morning, and yung late evening arrival namin sa Manila naging early afternoon -- yung 2D3N namin naging 3D2N. They only gave us an option to refund or to change our schedule with waived differences.

Sa 3rd day, we really wanted to go to Honda Bay so pinush pa rin namin kahit na medyo tight ang schedule. Mas mura ang bangka pag isang isla lang yung pupuntahan -- we paid 800 going to Luli Island alone (700 if Cowrie Island alone), though syempre mas sulit pag gagawin syang Island Hopping (1.3k for 6 people).

And this time dahil na-curious kami sa tamilok at croc meat kumain kami ng tamilok at croc sisig sa Kinabuch's on the second day. Okay naman lasa nya (though mas prefer ko pa rin yung pork sisig nila).


@ sis ava_camille: May microwave oven, ref at lababo yung pinakamalaking room ng Purple fountain if I'm correct... Wala nga lang lutuan.

Sis depende kung anong package ang gusto mo pero for me, mas okay mag-DIY nalang. Ganun kasi ginawa namin before. Nagpabook lang ako ng accomodation sa Agoda, then yung pinagstayan namin may nirecommend samin na tricycle for the city tour, 600 lang binayaran namin for the whole day. Then kinabukasan pinickup nya kami for Island Hopping. 500 naman round trip binayad namin. Then sa Sta Lourdes Wharf nagbayad lang kami for boat rental. Maganda kasi sa DIY, ikaw masusunod sa time mo.
