Overview

A private day at the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park — a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the New7Wonders of Nature. Your guide collects you from your hotel and takes care of the permits and timing at Sabang.

A motorised boat runs along the coast to the cave mouth, then a paddleboat glides through the limestone chambers past stalactites, stalagmites and bats. Back at Sabang Beach, relax over a buffet lunch before the drive home.
