RV and Weng of Corazon Travel and Tours - Throughout the entire trip, ma’am Weng showed us nothing but great hospitality, answered all of our questions, and gave some recommendations of sorts for us tourists; such as which restaurants are Halal, where to buy souvenirs for cheap, and many more. Always shown a friendly smile, and spoke in English and Tagalog for the tourists to understand the tour clearly. The driver— sir RV is also a great driver! He, alongside with ma’am Weng, both entertained us with stories, information, and hospitality throughout the tour. He drove us to our destinations as fast and safely as he could, and even accompanied us whenever we explored the area. He gives off a friendly vibe like ma’am Weng but more of a calmer side. Overall, both sir RV and ma’am Weng are friendly and hospitable with us through the entire trip!

Private tour in Puerto Princessa (half day). - The whole experience was fabulous. From the help from Viator with the booking, the flexibility of the tour company when NCL changed port times to the actual tour. Both guide Jerome and driver were great. They looked after us very well. Informative and friendly. The weaving demonstration was very cute (children showed my wife how to weave). Great tour.

Great tour and guide for a smaller town - This was a great tour to get all of the highlights in and around the Puerto Princesa area. The town is up and coming so the fact that our guide, Jed, was local to the area added a whole new and worthwhile perspective. He was very informative and answered all our questions. The sites aren’t fancy but they have history and significance to the area. I highly recommend the tour and Jed as a guide.

Amazing way to get a taste of Puerto Princesa - This was our first full day in Puerto Princesa and we wanted to get a sense of the city. They arrived early to pick up us. Our tour guide, Banessa (not 100% sure how to spell her name) was awesome, knowledgeable and made the four hours go by seamlessly. She had a great sense of humor and kept us entertained. Nelson, our driver, was a very good driver and navigated the busy streets safely. We loved visiting the local artisans, learning more about some history, and getting to sample ube pastries. I would highly recommend this tour, especially early on in your trip, for anyone who wants to get a better taste of Puerto Princesa and its culture.

We were very happy with the tour and the tour guide! - We were brought to some important sites in the city that we could not have discovered on our own in our short time here. We made stops and walked around to take pictures. Our guide explained each stop. We are Very happy with the tour.

Fantastic Value - I go on lots of tours but rarely leave reviews. This tour however needs to be highlighted - for the duration, price, local knowledge and general enjoyment, its probably one of the best tours I've been on.

Good half activity. - Our tour guide, Echo, was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. I think he did a very good job. The tour was interesting. I think the best part was the Palawan Wildlife Rescue. A half day is a good amount of time for the city tour. Good souvenir shopping! I recommend it.

Enjoyable tour - Sadly did not attend the Croc farm which is the main reason for the tour due to a vote of not going which wasn't really fair. Enjoyed the other parts a lot.
