Fantastic 5.0
Tour A in El Nido was such an amazing experience! The destinations were absolutely beautiful, and every stop felt like a dream, especially the Big Lagoon. The crystal-clear water and towering limestone cliffs made it one of the most unforgettable places we’ve ever seen. What really stood out were the tour guides. They were very knowledgeable and explained each location clearly, which made us appreciate the places even more. Their communication was excellent, making everything smooth, organized, and easy to follow throughout the day. Overall, Tour A is a must-do in El Nido. The combination of breathtaking spots and professional, friendly guides made the whole experience truly memorable 🌊✨

We’re so glad we chose this speedboat tour. It felt like we had the entire boat to ourselves since there were no other guests, which made the whole experience feel more private and relaxed. The boat was comfortable, the crew was friendly, and we got to enjoy El Nido’s incredible views without the usual crowds. Being on a speedboat also meant less travel time between stops and more time enjoying the beaches and lagoon. One of the best decisions we made on this trip.

We had a nice time in Lio and Nacpan beach, I met new friends and the crowd was so nice! A great El Nido experience! The farm is not really a farm setting, just to set the expectation of those who will be joining but the food is delicious. Thank you!

Almost got cancelled because at first there were not enough participants but voila it pushed through!!!! The most beautiful and memorable experience in el nido!!!! ❤️❤️❤️🛥️ we were just 6 people on board and everyone was welcoming and the lunch was also good!! We went to their private beach where I was able to swim with a turtle for the first time (as a beginner swimmer). Everything was just perfect and I was so happy. It was for a honeymoon trip with my husband and I would definitely come back to do it again. It is hard to do basic tours again once you have experienced the luxury of a catamaran 😆😅 Highly-recommended if you want to fully enjoy your el nido tour without a crowd and in a more peaceful way! ❤️🌺

Ivan and his Crew were amazing. very friendly, yet professional. With high energy and positive attitude. They were all fabulous! The destinations were great and we didn't feel rushed. The lunch buffet was also great too. I will definitely recommend Happy Tours to anyone who wants to have a great day out with such an amazing group of staff. A+

We had an amazing day on Darocotan Island, the cultural experiences making bracelets and a cooking class, blended with some amazing snorkling and a really nice lunch. The staff and locals are so friendly. The tour is very relaxed you can do as much or as little as you want.

The van was very spacious. We booked our trip from El Nido to Puerto here. It was cheaper compared to booking at the terminal itself, especially considering the van was more spacious and had a high ceiling. They also picked us up at our preferred location, which saved us money on transportation to the van terminal. The driver was kind. Overall, it was worth it!

What to know before visiting El Nido

Discover El Nido’s highlights and travel rhythm

El Nido is a beach-and-island escape where water activities dominate Klook bookings, followed by parks and gardens, tours and massages. Demand peaks in late northern-hemisphere winter and drifts lower through mid-year, so the island sees a clear high season and a quieter trough in summer.

Best months to visit for crowds and prices

According to Klook booking data, the busiest month is February while demand is lowest around July. Prices typically rise toward January and fall into May; Klook’s data show May as the month with the lowest typical prices and January among the priciest. If you want fewer crowds and lower typical prices, plan for May through July; if you prefer the peak-season atmosphere, aim for February when activity demand is strongest. Prices and demand mostly move together here, with peak demand months also tending to show higher typical prices.

Tips for travellers from Malaysia

Most travellers from Malaysia typically book about four days ahead, with many late bookings possible just a day before — so El Nido suits spontaneous trips but allow a few days to lock in favourites. During the busiest months named above, plan further ahead if you have specific water activities or tours in mind. Use Klook to compare available activities and secure bookings a few days before travel for the best balance of choice and flexibility.
