Itinerary

Day 2: Puerto Princesa, Philippines
Location: Puerto Princesa
Underground River Tour (B/L)
Enjoy your complimentary breakfast from the hostel and eat heartily because we are about to do some trekking! You will be picked up early in the morning in our accommodations and get into a van to start the tour. This tour will not only show you the stunning underground river but you will also stop by at some beautiful landscapes along the way.
The Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park is one of the most important protected areas of the Philippines. It features a spectacular limestone or karst landscape with one of the most complex cave systems. It contains an 8.2 km long underground river that flows directly to the sea. The lower half of the river is brackish and is affected by the ocean’s tide. An underground river directly flowing into the sea, and the associated tidal influence makes it a significant natural phenomenon. The discovery of at least 11 minerals, crystal and egg shape rock formations, and a 20 million-year-old Miocene age serenia fossil in the cave further add to its scientific value. Overnight in Puerto Princesa.
After a day of exploring, it’s time to head back to the hotel and do some relaxing. Overnight in Puerto Princesa.
