Itinerary
Day 1 – Arrive in Manila
Land in Manila, check into your Makati stay, and take it easy after your flight. In the evening, meet the group for dinner and sample the city’s buzzing bar scene together.
Day 2 – Fly to Palawan & Local Family Lunch
Fly south to Puerto Princesa, then road‑trip to Port Barton. En route, stop for a home‑cooked lunch with a local family and learn about island life before checking into your beachfront hotel for sunset.
Day 3 – Port Barton Island Hopping
Sail by outrigger to coral gardens and sandy coves, snorkel with tropical fish (turtles if you’re lucky), and feast on a beach barbecue. Cruise back before dusk and explore Port Barton’s laid‑back dining spots.
Day 4 – To El Nido
Travel along the coast to El Nido, settle into your hotel, and stroll the lively streets. Find your favourite sunset bar and enjoy an easy evening by the bay.

Hop aboard a banca to swim in turquoise lagoons, kayak between towering karst cliffs, and chill on hidden beaches. Fresh island lunch included, with golden‑hour views on return.

Start with a scenic zipline for epic bay views, then slow it down at palm‑lined Nacpan Beach. Swim, sunbathe, and enjoy a carefree afternoon on one of Palawan’s finest stretches of sand.
Day 7 – Castaway Island Experience
Boat to a remote island for a unique overnight stay. Snorkel a nearby wreck, join a village walk to meet local families, and learn island cooking techniques before a bonfire under the stars.
