Okay, so you’ve booked a round trip airfare to fly to Coron Palawan, and it’s even better because it is a Cebu Pacific piso fare 2025 ticket. Now, you are confuse, should you diy the island hopping tours or go contact a travel agency so you can avail of all-in land arrangement package?
Before you make a decision, you have to identify first if you are okay with joining a group of other tourists on the island hopping adventure, to become a “Joiner in Coron”, or if you will splurge a little bit to have an exclusive tour for you and your companions only.
Once you have decided that, the next thing to think about is whether you have the time and capability to arrange the tour when you get to Coron. *Your hotel probably can arrange for you but we bet that it will be a little bit expensive since you’d be there needing the services asap. Or you can go around town and ask people there where to find boatmen or operators to directly transact with them. This way would be the cheapest. But don’t forget lunch! You can buy from the local market or check restaurants there for take-aways.
Or, prior to your flight, you will book the tours that you want ahead of time. Where to book? You can check Klook offers or you can contact a trusted travel agency. Just in case you will seek the help of a travel agency to make the arrangement for you to have a hassle-free getaway, we suggest our partner Travel Bug Travel and Tours #travelbugph. They are legit, you can check them on their website or on their Facebook page.
BUT, there are lots of Coron Tours! There is A, B, Town Tour, Ultimate Tour, which to go for? Question for you – how many days are you going to be in the island? 3 days? 4 days?
We suggest to have a Coron Town Tour on your first day, when you arrived. On the second day, take a tour. On the third day, assuming you will have a 4D3N, go for another tour? Why? Because you will not always be in Coron, maximize your stay.
The fourth day should just be rest and easy, just go around town, do not pack-in lots of activities because its your flight-out day. You need to be at the airport at least 2 hours before departure time.
Now again if you score a piso fare Coron ticket or even one at base fare P699, P999, etc, there’s a big saving therein, so why not divert that saving to avail of a tour ahead of time? Convenience and hassle-free travel is great to have.
