What people are saying about Puerto Princesa

Seeing the Firefly was great, also got to see it up close. The boat ride was great & it came with dinner which was a plus. It felt like home, a family having dinner. And the other tourists were friendly and communicated. Downside but I did not deduct any star was children crying; it was difficult to hear what the announcer was saying. Nevertheless, if I had to do it again, I would go back. Thanks Dong Dong!

This is a great tour to see the UNESCO underground caves...it is much more impressive than you would think, and well run. Corazon Tours is an excellent compay, we used them for 3 tours, they are very accommodating and a pleasure to work with!

The islands we visited were very beautiful, they were little paradise islands! Though it was raining later on still the experience was great. Lunch prepared by the team was very delicious. Thank you, guys, for such great experience!
