Islands of the Philippines

5.0(1 review)

Embark on an unforgettable journey to Palawan — one of the most breathtaking islands in the world. A true tropical paradise, Palawan is a land of unspoiled natural beauty, rich biodiversity, and unique cultural experiences. Your adventure begins in Manila, the bustling capital of the Philippines, before you set off for the island jewel that awaits. Your first stop in Palawan is Puerto Princesa, the island’s charming capital. Here, delve into the island's fascinating contrasts with a visit to the Crocodile Farm, home to both baby hatchlings and massive saltwater crocodiles. Continue on to the Iwahig Penal Colony, a unique open-air rehabilitation center often called a “prison without walls.” Unlike any prison you’ve seen, it is a self-sustaining community where inmates on good behavior live with their families, farm the land, and sell handicrafts to visitors — offering a rare insight into human resilience and hope. The adventure continues with a journey into the heart of nature at the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the New Seven Wonders of Nature. Glide along an 8-kilometer underground river on a paddle boat, marveling at towering limestone karsts, surreal rock formations, and cathedral-like caverns in one of the longest navigable subterranean rivers in the world. Your final destination is the idyllic coastal haven of El Nido, where dramatic limestone cliffs rise over crystal-clear lagoons and powdery white-sand beaches. Spend three blissful nights soaking up the sun, snorkeling through vibrant coral reefs, and discovering secluded coves by boat. Whether you choose to relax on the beach, explore the island-hopping gems of Bacuit Bay, or chase unforgettable sunsets, El Nido will leave you enchanted. As your tropical escape comes to an end, return to Manila with memories of serene waters, wild jungles, and warm island hospitality — a journey that lingers long after your footprints in the sand have faded.

Short tour but fitted a lot in. It is a shame there are not more itinerary options for this country if you are over 39. I joined a Tao sailing trip from El Nido to Coron directly after this tour as this was not an option with G (but is for the younger age group). I realise there may be more limited demand for an older age group but as you already run other itineraries for ages to 35 or 39 why not experiment with offering a couple of dates a year maybe for your soloish trips that have recently launched

My experience was nothing short of amazing. My CEO, the other member of the group, the excursions as well as the amazing food. It was perfectly planned out and I have already started to look at other G adventure trips. I hope that future ones will be just as good as this one! Again, another big thank you to Joseph our CEO for making my first G adventures trip one to remember.
