Description
Explore the captivating beauty of Puerto Princesa, Palawan. Journey through eight amazing city highlights while experiencing the genuine warmth and hospitality of our local community.
Start your tour with a visit to either the Palawan Butterfly Ecological Garden and Tribal Village—where colorful butterflies fly freely and you can learn about the culture of the indigenous community—or the Crocodile Farming Institute (Palawan Rescue and Conservation Center), where you can discover conservation efforts from hatchlings to adulthood and snap memorable souvenir photos.
Continue to the Immaculate Cathedral, home to a century-old statue of the patron saint adorned in handcrafted garments made by locals. Just beside the cathedral, visit Plaza Cuartel, a historic park known as the site of the tragic Palawan Massacre during World War II.
Afterward, enjoy a running tour inside the vehicle as you drive past the Puerto Princesa Baywalk and Balayong People's Park. Take in the scenic waterfront views, vibrant local atmosphere, and open green spaces directly from the comfort of your van.
Proceed to Baker's Hill, a local landmark featuring a themed garden, a scenic viewpoint, and a famous bakery. Be sure to try their signature hopia (flaky pastry filled with sweet mung bean or ube), crinkles, and other local baked goods. Up next is Mitra’s Ranch, a hilltop property offering sweeping countryside views and outdoor recreational activities like ziplining, a giant slide, a skywalk hanging bridge, and a giant swing.
Finally, finish your day with a stop at local souvenir and handicraft centers—Puerto Princesa's primary one-stop shops for regional delicacies, handcrafted gifts, and pasalubong to bring home.
