Puerto Princesa

Dubbed as the city in the forests, this capital city of Palawan precedes its name. Along with its thriving commercial center and tourism, here you can still find heritage sites in their tip-top condition. One of these sites is the Immaculate Conception Cathedral and the Plaza Cuartel which were around for hundreds of years and during World War II respectively. These historical sites are some of the places you will visit during the city tour. Of course, there’s the Puerto Princesa Underground River, which was recognized in 2012 as one of the world’s natural wonders. All of these you can explore on your Palawan Tour.

El Nido

The famous soup that is a local delicacy in this part of Palawan is enough to make El Nido famous. However, that’s not all the town has to offer. With a Palawan Tour, you’ll get to see some famous islands with unique shapes and features such as the Helicopter Island, also known as the Dilumacad Island. This island is popular for its fringing corals, hidden coves and its shape. Lagen Island is famous for the rare species of birds that reside in this island.

Coron

If you are a sucker for water activities, Coron has a lot to offer. From Japanese imperial navy shipwrecks to the Barracuda Lake which is 30 meters deep. These sites are famous and visited by thousands of diving enthusiasts every year. If you are not into diving, kayaking snorkeling and island hopping are some popular water activities you can try during your Palawan Tour.
