The package also comes with accommodations at a budget hotel in El Nido, Palawan, roundtrip transfers to and from El Nido Lio Airport, access to the hotel's amenities, breakfast, and a shared El Nido island-hopping tour A.

When you land at the Lio Airport, a designated driver will fetch you and take you straight to your accommodations. However, if you're coming from Puerto Princesa, you can also book a transfer from there as an add-on service. You will then have the rest of the day to yourself after checking in at your assigned budget hotel. Feel free to rest and freshen up in your room before heading out to explore El Nido.

Day 2 - Day 2: Palawan El Nido Shared Island Hopping Tour A with Lunch & Transfers | Secret Lagoon, Shimizu Island

You'll go on a shared El Nido island-hopping tour A on the second day after enjoying your breakfast. The tour's main attraction is the Big Lagoon, a gorgeous natural pool of clear waters that's perfect for swimming. It's also surrounded by limestone cliffs that protect it from harsh winds, so the water's generally calm. Following your time here, you'll head to Shimizu Island, where you can lounge on its powdery shore and snorkel in the surrounding waters. Then, you'll sail to the Secret Lagoon before wrapping up the tour at the Seven Commandos Beach. You can also include an add-on lunch or upgrade to a private tour for an additional fee.
