PALAWAN is my province recognized as the World's Best Island by various travel magazines and websites, it is home to two UNESCO world heritage sites, and one of the 7 wonders of nature which makes it a very popular tour destination in the Philippines. White sand beaches, natural unique islands, turquoise lagoons, unspoiled landscape and warm people are some of the things that make my province truly a paradise for adventure-seekers, honeymooners, leisure-travelers and other type of vacationers. I was born and raised here in Palawan and I have been taking cruise ship guests, travelers, vacationers, backpackers from the usual sight-see tours to off-beaten private tours and excursions since 2010.

The Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park is the pride of my city for being part of the seven wonders of nature. Back in the days, we have to endure a 3-4 hours of land travel in unpaved road via jeepneys to reach this hidden gem in the west of our city. This is the most popular tour in the city and even though I have been here innumerable times, its natural beauty never cease to amaze me. Underground River is the the world's longest navigable underground river in world. You will not do caving in this tour but rather enjoy a canoe ride inside the cave to catch the sight of out-of-this world limestone formations which were formed thousands or even millions of years ago. The karst mountains, view of beach and a scenic drive are also the highlights of this daytrip. We will drive 1. 5 hours to Sabang port, 30 minutes boat ride to the National Park and 30-45minutes of Canoe tour inside the Underground River. For sure, you will bring home special memories and photos of my beloved place.
