Palawan Tour

Palawan Tour


Good thing Cebu Pacific offers lots of promo like the Piso Fare, so "every Juan can fly".



At first we decided to have a trip to Cagayan de Oro but the time that Cebu Pacific offered this promo, they don't have yet direct flight to CDO, so our we go for Palawan.



Known as the "Last Frontier of the Philippines", Palawan has lot to offer. We arrived at Puerto Princesa Airport about lunch time. We just placed are baggage at the pension house where we stayed and right after we had our lunch. Then afterwards, we started our tour.



UntitledWe had our city tour just by ourselves. We tought we could save a lot as compared to having a travel guide. So our first stop was the Butterfly Garden. What else should you expect for, of course, butterflies and lots of butterflies. Next stop, Baker's Hill. We tasted their Ube Hopia, Ham & Cheese Pandesal and Pianono. Among the three, my favorite is Ube Hopia. Then we go to the closest Rancho for site seeing. And our final stop for the city tour, the famous Crocodile Farm. You'll find different sizes of crocodile. And to end the day we had our dinner to one of the famous restaurant in the city, Ka Lui Restaurant.



UntitledOn the second day, we had our underground river cruise on Puerto Princesa Palawan Subterranean River. It's an almost 8 KM navigable underground river, but only around 1-2 KM is open to public. Don't know, may be i was not listening when the guide was explaining. Lots of stalactites and stalagmites formation you can see inside the cave. Then we end the day by having our dinner at Kinabuchs Restaurant. I tried their tamilok (woodworm), but I was not able to eat all.



On our third day, we went island hopping at Honda Bay. Our first stop, Pandan Island. We had snorkeling on the island. Then we went to Snake Island, named after its shape "S". We had our lunch their and, the usual, snorkel again and fed the fish. Our final stop was the Starfish Island, named after because they say this island has lots of starfish, but amazingly, i found few. On our way back to the wharf, we passed by to Lu-Li Island short for Lulubog-Lilitaw.



It is very exciting to go to different places. My next stop. I don't know where, but for sure I will post it here.
