Puerto Prinsesa, Palawan Thread 18

[simang]

^pero sis baka mabitin kayo sa El Nido. One day there is bitin sobra.

[thebratinella]

Sisses, we'll go there next year. Anong puwede pang gawin aside from the Honda Bay tour and city tour? We might skip the UGR tour because my daughter won't enjoy it (she'll be 5 years old next year). She was able to go inside a cave before pero sandali lang. Baka mabore lang siya sa tour and magtopak dun. Nakakahiya naman sa ibang tao. Worth it ba yung Dos Palmas day tour for those who've been there? Thanks po. We booked tickets via Air Asia. Inabot din ng 1500+ per pax.

^sis, we spent overnight sa Dos Palmas. actually, i would say na sulit yung day tour sa Dos Palmas not because of the resort itself, but because of their house reef - ang ganda ng Helen's Garden for snorkeling!! love it!! di hamak na mas maganda kaysa sa Pambato Reef (which is included in the Honda Bay tour).

[sarahsensible]

Hi girls! thanks for everyone sharing their experiences. We will be in PP June 29-July 04. Wala pa kaming itinerary although I tried to message sis tiara kaya lang mukhang busy it's been a week wala pa syang email sa akin.

Torn tuloy ako kung Honda Bay or Dos palmas nalang... ano ang  mas may privacy? lol

[josievee]

Hmm sa honda bay kase sis atleast 3 islands ang puntahan nyo... and cheaper than dos palmas... but if you want better facility... ok ang dos palmas. You might want to try cecilia's inn. May toura din sila...mwas there 2 weeks ago. They offer also rebates sa packages if you support their cause.. I think its pack for a pupose... dala ka lang school supplies and may rebates sila. May school sila na support sa puerto. Inyernational yung pack for a purpose... sila lang ang taga philippines.

[meimei]

^^sis, you're spending 5 nights in PP?? that's long, you can do both Honda Bay and Dos Palmas day tour. i really loved snorkeling at Helen's Garden, pero enjoy din kasi ang Honda Bay tour because palipat-lipat ng island and i love it (hindi lang talaga maganda yung snorkeling sa Pambato Reef).

[aranses]

Wala pa kami room para sa puerto prinsesa tour namin sa june 22-24. Mag diy kami for honda bay tour. May nakatry na ba sa astoria?

[sarahsensible]

sis josievee - sige will mention that sa kasama ko, ysabelle mansion ata napupusuan nila.

sis  meimei - oo nga sis ang tagal gusto ko nga mag pa rebook ng flight kung hindi lang halos ganun din pala ang aabutin ng presyo ng flight. Sis mukhang wala ba akong ma eenjoy dyan? lol hindi ako marunong lumangoy lagot 

[simang]

^sis pwede pa kayo mag el nido pag 5 days! hehe

keri lang di marunong lumangoy, ako din sis di marunong, pero nakapag snorkel pa ko haha sabihin mo lang sa mga kuya bangkero aalalayan ka naman nila

[sarahsensible]

^pramis sis?  clueless ako sa pag snorkel, inisip ko nga baka mainis pa sken mga kasama ko.
Ano pa ba pwedeng itinerary for 5 days

[simang]

^oo dati ako pinahawak ako ni kuya bangkero dun sa parang salbabida haha tas magkasabay kami nagsnorkel kase sabi ko sa kanya di ko marunong lumangoy haha.

sobra 5 days sa PP sis, kase normally ang ganap lang naman dyan is Honda Bay, UGR and city tour na half day, so 3 days is enough. if gusto nyo, overnight kayo sa Dos Palmas para beach bumming lang for a day or two.

[mariecelle]

hi everyone, i am so new here. sobrang helpful ng thread at very timely. I am planning to go to PP with bf around Oct. 16-18. I've heard of Honda Bay and UGR...reading from here, I think I can squeeze it in a 3D2N thing...pero sobrang clueless ako where to start. I still need to book our flights, waiting for piso fare sa Ceb Pac. But i need help to start it all up. Maraming salamat!

[sarahsensible]

^our flight is air asia mga 1,500++ each back and forth

^^sabagay ang magagastos ko kung mag papa rebook is nasa 3k++ din pwede ng pangdagdag sa iba pang gagawin. But overnight in Dos Palmas is around 7k++ diba?

[josievee]

Malayo astoria sis... mga 50+ km from the city. Pero magamda.

[wanderer_ph]

Hi, mga sis! My parents and I are going to Palawan on November, 3D2N lang. 930 AM ng Nov. 13 ang arrival namin then 3 PM ng Nov. 15 ang departure. My mom has been to the UGR and Honda Bay so we're not keen on seeing those.

Was thinking kung possible ang itinerary na ito:

Nov. 13
930 AM - Arrival sa Puerto Princesa, diretso na kami sa El Nido
3 PM (estimate ko lang) - Arrival sa El Nido

Nov. 14
Island hopping - whole day
6 or 7 PM - Travel back to El Nido

Nov. 15
AM - City tour

What do you think sisses? Doable kaya ito? At papayag kaya 'yung agency na makakausap namin if ever kung babalik kami ng gabi ng Nov. 14?

Ilan kayo? Doable sya kaso think of it.. El Nido in 1 day is bitin nga..

From airport go straight to Van Shuttle Terminals of Fort Wally or Eulen or what ever vans then you will probably arrive at 4pm siguro. The following day start tours - combined tours ang suggested since TIME is your issue. Then pack up and head back to shuttle back to PPS by 6:30PM. Arrive kayo mga 12mn..get a cheap lodge to rest somehow.. and then do city tours and go home..

[thebratinella]

Itinerary namin:

First day: City tour lang kasi we'll arrive there at 10:00 AM. Kaya naman siguro ikutin lahat in the afternoon? I checked some blogs for the places we can go to.

Second day: Honda Bay

Third day: Dos Palmas day tour. We'll skip the Underground River tour na lang.

Fourth day: We'll go around the city then flight back to Manila in the afternoon.

[aranses]

Sa Aziza kami nagbook. wala pa kami tour pero balak namin day 1 honda bay tour, day 2 UGR tour at day 3 City tour. 

[meimei]

Sis mukhang wala ba akong ma eenjoy dyan? lol hindi ako marunong lumangoy lagot 

sis, hindi rin ako marunong lumangoy, but I LOVE SNORKELING! you don't have to know how to swim in order to snorkel naman eh. tsaka nag-aassist talaga yung mga guide, hinihila nila sa salbabida.

[tinzze]

we'll be going to PP on July for 4D&3N. already booked with Go Hotels. may nakapag stay na ba dito? gaano sya kalayo sa city center?

[pret_ty68]

Hindi pa ako naka pag stay dyan sis pero nadaanan namin yan. Nasa city naman sya malapit sya sa robinsons palawan. Magkakalapit lang lugar dun sis tricy lang.
