Palawan: Puerto + El Nido + Coron - 6 Days 5 Nights

To begin with the advertisement for this trip needs to change the age range from 0 to 100 to 10 to 50. We expected to have the tour company that we signed up with be our host. Instead we were picked up from our hotel by a contract company which only facilitated the day trip that was on the itinerary. They had no idea where our next hotel stay would be, so we had to contact the tour company or Dennis to find out where we would be staying that night. On the day we were to go on the first tour hopping. We were told that we needed to pay additional money. We contacted Dennis and he cleared up the miscommunication, as we went to board our boat, we were told that we had to ride in a kayak to get to the boat. For someone like myself who is 65 years old climbing in and out of a kayak to climb onto a boat was a challenge. The hotels were very nice, the breakfast were very nice. The meals that were included were very nice but this trip is not for anyone who is not reasonably physically fit. As you will have to step from one boat to another to board your vessel, if you don’t have a knowledge of the language this trip would present a problem for you. We also had a problem with our boat tickets from El Nido to Coron we received copies of these tickets, but the harbor requires a hardcopy of the ticket. My husband is 6 foot four and the vans that we traveled in were packed and there wasn’t a lot of legroom from Puerta princesa to El Nido is a 6 Hour Dr., so it was very uncomfortable. Dennis was very quick to communicate with us when we ran into problems but unfortunately that wasn’t enough to make this trip one that I would recommend for someone of age or of my age which is 65.
