Fantastic! Awesome staff! Visually stunning Islands!❤️🇵🇭❤️ - Highly recommended. Hands down AAA+++ experience! Welly B, Jun-Jun, and the rest of the crew went above and beyond to make this trip extra special. Welly took terrific photos, helped us row our kayak, and guided us to the big Lagoon. At the journey's beginning, the tour leader fully disclosed which islands we could or could not visit due to heavy wind gusts and rough waves due to the remnants of a tropical storm. We also have a sumptuous lunch. All Staff are very attentive and readily assist all guests. We visited multiple islands, and they are all fantastic! I highly recommend this tour. On the other hand, the Coast Guard is proactive in ensuring your safety by approving specific tours that can operate on certain days, especially during a storm. Tour A is not in an open sea, so we could go by the Coast Guard. Lastly, bring watersheds, cell phone covers with lanyards to prevent water from getting into your phone, and sunscreen.

Awesome experience - Each island has its unique characteristics that make it one of the best places to visit. The snorkeling and kayaking was great.

Tour A feedback - Trip and crew were good but the boat stops far from the beach and very rocky areas. Very difficult to get on and off and most people in our groups had cuts from the sharp rocks. Lunch could be better

Great tour, a must in El Nido - I had a great time on the tour and saw beautiful areas. My only wish is that we could have stayed in the areas a little longer; it seemed too short. Also I thought the lunch would be on a beach, but we are on the boat. The tour guides were very nice and helpful too and the price was very reasonable for the tour.

Aicen: a great guide for an unforgettable day - Aicen was an excellent guide: very considerate, helpful, cheerful. He also sings wonderfully. It was a splendid day, the only thing missing was lunch which we had to bring.

No snorkeling at the... - No snorkeling at the first beach but the information said kayak and snorkeling. Kayak rental was optional for a fee but if you didn't pay the fee, you couldn't leave the boat. The third stop had everyone walking in the water, over large rocks, for over 50 feet. Quite dangerous!

Great time to relax onboard the boat while enjoying the sea and the island sights. - They boarded us on a nice double decker boat. Great customer service from the tour guides onboard the boat and safety were their most primary concerns. The view of the islands were amazing.

Cheap/mass-tourism you get for 50% when booking offline - It‘s all the same, regardless of which operator you book (online of offline) - the whole town is collaborating with excess-/limited capacity so it’s just a gamble which bot you hop in. Even when you are a private tour, you will go to the same (very crowded) beaches (you start a little earlier though, but at least 50% of the time you will feel the extra pay was pointless). Prices on Tripadvisor for Extras are not what you will here on site (not mich difference in EUR but annoying). Buffet was good/ok, but there are always 20-30 people on a single boat so it’s more a fight at the buffet for the good stuff- otherwise you can have rice and super-dry meat. The crews are accustomed to net getting any tips and so no one really makes an effort. Ignore what the description is on Tripadvisor: no tour is longer than 6 hours. In the morning you wait ages (in the burning sun) to leave the harbor and on the islands it is more 40minutes when you can’t spend money and 2h when you can’t do anything else. Landscapes are amazing -> so still do the tour(s), but expect tourists in the background of your pictures. Advice: take precaution bc of sunburns (like swimming shirt).

Wait and book tour in person. Much cheaper - Much better in coron.. less crowded and actuaĺly had table and bench to eat lunch on not like this tour. Had to stand and eat or sit on sand. If you do go, WAIT TO BOOK HERE. Lots of availability and price 1200 PHP which is $30cdn. Much less than on line price
