Tour overall was excellent. A bit of confusion with correspondance in the lead up to the tour but once we were on the ground running everything went smoothly.

Best time to visit Palawan Island
- Spring 2026
Spring temperatures make our 14-17 day cultural tours really special. It's just right for mixing inland activities like village visits and cooking classes with treks to secluded waterfalls. Our customers love how the spring schedule flows - you might learn traditional fishing from locals in the morning and swim with sea turtles after lunch. The 10-day group tours include beach camping and visits to local schools, while private tours can adjust easily to spring weather patterns.
- Summer 2026
Summer calls for our focused 5-7 day tours in specific Palawan regions. These shorter trips help beat the heat while covering the essentials - snorkeling in fish-rich reefs, exploring limestone caves and relaxing on powder-white beaches. Evening activities really shine in summer with sunset sails, beach cookouts and local performances. We keep groups small at 8-12 people, making it easy to work around afternoon showers and catch the best morning water conditions.

- August 2026 30 tours
- Fall / Autumn 2026
The fall season from September through November sees tours emphasizing both cultural experiences and marine activities. Our most popular 17-day routes start with canyoneering at Kawasan Falls before heading to Moalboal for the famous sardine run - imagine snorkeling among thousands of fish in crystal clear waters. Tours then typically continue to Coron and El Nido, where travelers spend three days sailing between uninhabited islands on traditional boats, sleeping in simple beach huts and meeting local tribes. What makes these autumn tours special is the mix of active adventures like hiking Mount Tapyas and relaxing experiences like traditional Filipino massages, organic farm visits and also cultural performances by local children.

- Winter 2026 / 2027
During the winter months from November through February, Palawan's tours focus heavily on water activities when the seas are calmest. Multi-day tours running 13-14 days combine snorkeling over WWII shipwrecks in Coron with cultural immersion in local villages. Our travelers particularly enjoy starting in Manila before heading to Port Barton, where they spend nights in beachfront bungalows and join local guides for island exploration. The top-rated winter itineraries include school visits where guests can bring supplies and connect with students, private beach camping with fresh seafood feasts and also Filipino cultural days where you'll learn everything from traditional stick fighting to coconut tree climbing. Many tours finish in Coron with hot spring soaks and bonfire nights on Pass Island - perfect for the cooler winter evenings.
