As a solo traveler, this kind of tour package made my travel a convenient one. Day 1 is really good. The tour guide (Meann) was amazing too. Day 2 was a waiting game to get to the Underground River. It was like almost half of my day was wasted. The transfer from PPS to El Nido was smooth though. Day 3, the itinerary was not followed but still a good day plus the tour guide was nice. His English is really good. Day 4, the itinerary was not followed as well but remains a good day. I enjoyed the company of the tour guide (Rodel) during this travel. Overall, it was a good experience and I would recommend this package to others. They really need to revisit the Day 2 arrangements though.

Once again, a successful tour at a fair price. Isa, our tour guide, went to great lengths to provide us with a lot of information and took care of everything. A great experience that you should definitely see. They communicated in advance by email when the hotel pickup would be. We were at the harbor at 9 a.m., where we started at 10 a.m. and then transitioned directly into the river. Isa took great pictures of all of us and always had a witty saying on hand. I also made new acquaintances.

great thing to do when in puerto and you have a vacant day, great way to get out to have an island experience and get to do more things like snorkeling at pambato reef (bring pocket money for renting aqua shoes, snorkeling gear etc)

Although this tour we did not catch any sightings of the gentle giant, the tour guides Jed and Glaiza made us understand that this is wild and very natural way to try and swim with the whale sharks as they do not coerce them with food. In other words it an ethical way to do it without harming them. it’s all about timing to catch them feeding. but either way the water was calm, weather was beautiful and it was like sailing around puerto princesa on a nice boat with great lunch. thank you to Blue bird tours. it really is worth a try trying to see them in their natural habitat.

This tour is a must-do when visiting Puerto Princesa! Our guide, Ms. Carol, made sure we had a blast the entire day. The weather was perfect too. It was amazing to witness one of the 7 wonders of nature and to zipline for nearly half a mile in Palawan! Lunch was tasty, and we even got to try Tamilok, a local delicacy!!

It was a fun and very comprehensive activity. Mark, our guide, shares his knowledge with kindness and is also attentive to our questions and needs. The attractions along the way allowed me to see the reality of the port and relax at the same time. The itinerary was sufficient and interesting. The group had cultural diversity and perfect integration. The car driver was very respectful and friendly. Thank you. I will return as soon as I can.

My hubby and I had fun, it was such a wonderful experience with the firefly watching. The boat where we had our dinner and orientation was very spacious. Food was fresh and fantastic. The guide and captain for the firefly watching were very accommodating and was very knowledgable, both really made sure that everyone of us were comfortable and safe. i highly recommend to do firefly watching.
