Shared Puerto Princesa Underground River Tour in Palawan with Lunch & Hotel Transfers

Explore the hidden treasures within the depths of the Puerto Princesa Underground River in Palawan. This boat trip is open for anyone who wants to explore the spectacular limestone landscape of the UNESCO World Heritage Site. This shared Puerto Princesa Underground River tour is already inclusive of the assistance of a licensed tour guide, boat transfers, an Underground River Visitor Entry Permit (VEP), an audio guide, buffet lunch, insurance, and pick-up and drop-off from your accommodations in Puerto Princesa. Please note that the Puerto Princesa environmental fee is not yet included in this Palawan Underground River tour.

Wake up early on the day of your tour, as you will be picked up from your accommodations at 7 AM. You will travel from your hotel in Puerto Princesa City to Sabang Wharf in the comfort of an air-conditioned van. Sabang serves as the main gateway to the Subterranean River National Park. There, a motorized boat will be waiting for you and will take you to the mouth of the cave.

There will be paddle boats on standby at the entrance of the cave. You will be transferred to these boats, which will take you inside the river. Before boarding the boat, a lifejacket, headgear, and audio device will be given to you. Make sure you wear the safety gear properly to ensure a hassle-free experience.

The Underground River is considered one of the most impressive cave systems in the country, so expect to see several natural rock formations on its walls. Your guide will point out the various shapes these rocks form, such as a lady, a dinosaur skull, the last supper, and a candle.

Other than the rocks, the stunning stalactites and stalagmites will catch your attention. The dazzling crystals and minerals, plus the cathedral-like natural caverns and halls, will also leave you speechless. While enjoying the breathtaking view, listen to the audio device given to you for further information about the river.

The river stretches up to 8.2 kilometers, but only 4.3 is open to the public as the remaining part lacks oxygen, making it too risky for visitors to go beyond. The river is home to a few species like bats, birds, and reptiles. 

After that awe-inspiring underground river cruise, you will return to Sabang Wharf, where a buffet lunch will be waiting for you. Once you are done, you will be transported back to your hotel in Puerto Princesa so you can rest and relax after a morning of exploring.
