Hi
Thank you for the tips. I’m visiting Palawan in January. I hope the weather will be nice. Do you advice I book tours from Klook.com?
Hi Debra. Yes, please check out their tours. They have some for Puerto Princesa. I’ve used them before. https://www.klook.com/?aid=4074
I just noticed that the guy paddling the boat looks like the one we had on our trip a couple of days ago. 😀 He looks older now though, if he is the same one
Mangrove tour is now 350 pesos 🙁
Thank you in advance. 😉
Hi Aleah,
With regards to “Aleah’s Tip:” section, if I chose Monkey Trail, yung P 200.00 po na tinutukoy nyo ay makakaabot po ng UR o Underground River?
Mc, it’s two different things. You pay P200 to take the mangrove tour. You just go boating through the mangroves. Then after the tour, ask the boatman where the monkey trail to the underground river is. You walk for less than an hour and you end up at the UR. Enjoy Puerto Princesa, and if you need suggestions on where to stay, check out my post: https://www.solitarywanderer.com/2014/08/stay-puerto-princesa-palawan/
Hi here, im just wondering… what would be the estimated cost now if ever i follow your advice to take the Monkey Trail and the Mangrove Paddle Boat? When i get to the sabang beach and not take the boat directly going to the undergound, where would the monkey trail lead me? and from that End, how much would it cost going the the underground river itself. thanks in advance for the big help! 😀
Hey I just did the Underground river today and head up to El Nido tomorrow. Great post thank you! Loving Palawan!
Enjoy El Nido! I would love to do the island hopping tours there again. If you have time, visit Coron as well 🙂
Hello! I am planning a 3 nights/2 days tour in Puerto Princesa with my 2 other friends. I am curious about taking that monkey trail you mentioned and a mangrove paddle boat tour by volunteers, are these still available until now?
Hi Novie. I’m pretty sure they’re still available. Just follow my directions. I really hope you can take the paddleboat tour. It will help the locals maintain the mangrove and the rate’s pretty okay. Let me know if it has changed. Thanks!
Me and my bf gonna spend vacation on April. Hope were gonna have fun..especially, walk or hike on way to underground river.. Sounds funds;)
Hope you had fun!
@ Bhey: There’s one now? Wow. And no, I haven’t and I probably wouldn’t. 🙂
@ Mimi: I suggest staying in Puerto Princesa and not in Sabang where the underground river is. We stayed in Banwa, a really nice inn.
what is the best hotel in puerto princess palawan? that is near to underground river? because im planning to visit palawan soon.need some help pretty girl
you should tried our service here at Casanas suites palawan.
Hello there.. have you tried the Sabang X zipline? 🙂
@ Gelo: Really? Palawan is very beautiful. Visit it soon! 😀
ahhhhh palawan! another must-visit place in our country i haven’t set foot on. *face palm*
@ Danni: Feel free to share!
@ Harold: Thanks!
Yeah! I agree.. Palawan is such a wonderful place to visit. Nice photos.
I am totally in awe of this place! Everything looks so lush and green, and an underground river!? Seriously. I’m desperate to visit here now. Thanks for the great tips too!
@ Sharon: You’re missing out a lot. Palawan’s so beautiful!
Another province I haven’t been to yet!
@ Photo Cache: I agree, Palawan is so beautiful!
@ Shalu Sharma: No, you can’t paddle it. It’s the volunteers who do so. It’s very peaceful and romantic!
Looks like a lot of good things to do in Puerto princesa. I would particularly like rowing the paddling boat. Can you do it yourself rather than have someone do it for you?
this is really on top of philippine wish list……so far ahead of boracay.
@ Salika Jay: Yes, Palawan is beautiful.
@ Marisol: Did you also take the mangrove tour? Can’t forget that one!
I love Palawan. This makes me miss it. Good tip about taking the monkey trail to the underground river. I really enjoyed that part.
The Underground River looks so beautiful. White sandy beaches sounds like a beautiful dream.
