Fantastic 5.0
Our Puerto Princesa Underground River tour with Wild Expeditions was an absolutely incredible experience! From the very beginning, our driver Kuya Japet and guide Sir. Kim were incredibly accommodating, funny and friendly. Gliding into the massive limestone caverns on the boat felt completely surreal. The audio guide was perfectly paced, pointing out the stunning formations, while the guide navigated the dark chambers. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Palawan, an absolute must-do!

the fireflies so good however next time i will suggest the driver needs to communicate because the pick up time is 5:30 to 6pm. we prepared early then the driver picked us at 7:30pm. Well recommended once you arrive to the place.

El Nido is really beautiful! Secret beach is cool! I want to highlight the boat crew members from the tour guide Kuya Saldy, captain Kuya Tutong, members Kuya Toto, Kuya Jojo, Kuya KP, & Kuya Kulot (I hope I got their names right) for amazing and fun tour. Besides telling us the do’s and don’t’s and the rules at the start of the tour, Kuya Saldy also communicated beforehand about the weather conditions and if we were able to follow the itinerary as safety comes first. He suggested an option and so far it didn’t disappoint. He is also has a good sense of humor same as the crew members which made the tour more fun and memorable. I don’t know how to swim and everyone was very kind and helpful to me so I really enjoyed this tour! Kudos to the team!

Our family recently booked a van transfer from Port Barton to Puerto Princesa, and we had a very pleasant experience. The entire process was smooth, convenient, and well-organized from start to finish. The driver arrived on time, was professional and courteous, and ensured that everyone was comfortable throughout the journey. The van was clean, well-maintained, and spacious enough to accommodate both passengers and luggage comfortably. Despite the long drive, the ride felt safe and relaxed. What we appreciated most was the driver’s careful driving and friendly attitude. He was respectful, helpful with our bags, and made the trip stress-free, allowing us to simply enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way. Traveling between Port Barton and Puerto Princesa can be a long journey, but this transfer service made it easy and comfortable for our family. We felt safe, well taken care of, and arrived at our destination without any issues.

The transfer was very smooth, in fact I requested with the operator to change my pick up time and they process the changes quickly without hassle.

I recently had my first-ever 2GO trip from Coron to Manila, and it was a memorable experience. The booking process was smooth, and the staff at the port were helpful in guiding passengers. Onboard, the crew were friendly and accommodating, which made the journey feel safe and comfortable. The facilities were clean, and the food served was decent for a long trip. I especially appreciated the scenic views during the voyage, which added to the overall enjoyment.

What to know before visiting Puerto Princesa

Quick overview of Puerto Princesa and what to do

Puerto Princesa is a coastal destination known for outdoor and water-based experiences, with tours, outdoor & sports activities, attraction passes and parks appearing among the top categories. Demand on Klook peaks in February and eases through late summer, so the city sees a rhythm of busy early-year months and quieter late-year months.

Best times to visit and how prices move

Klook booking data show demand peaks in February and reaches a low in August. Prices drift through the year: Klook’s past data suggest July is typically the cheapest month for activities, while April tends to be among the priciest months. For lower prices and smaller crowds, consider visiting in July or the late-summer trough months; for peak-season atmosphere and the busiest touring options, February and the early-year months are best. Overall, prices and demand are not perfectly aligned—July is notably cheaper while February is much busier—so you can choose quieter, cheaper travel or lively, peak-season experiences depending on what you prefer.

Tips for travellers from the Philippines

Most travellers from the Philippines book activities around five days ahead on average, with many bookings still possible very close to travel (last-minute options around two days out). If you’re planning a short trip, you’ll find flexibility to book a few days before; if you’re traveling in February’s peak, consider securing popular tours earlier to avoid missing out. Use Klook to check timed tour and activity availability as your trip approaches.
