Enjoying Puerto Princesa on a Budget

They say it can't be done, but it is actually possible to spend only 6000 and have the FULL Puerto Princesa experience!  All you need is a little insider information and minimal planning skills!



Here's the basic computation of what you will be spending:

Airfare - 1,160
Room (2 nights) - 798
Tours - 4,000
Total: 5,958
*** add extra for one dinner, trike fare and pasalubong shopping.


So here's what you need to do:

1. Book a cheap flight! Piso fares from major airlines come more frequently than all your employment bonuses combined, you just got to know when they happen! Check out www.facebook.com/VillaSaturnina for updates, or you can also check the airline websites! Obviously, you will have to spend more than 1 Peso to book a flight, but you can still get a cheap round trip ticket for only 1,160 (inclusive of fees and taxes). Not bad! 
2. Get reasonably priced accommodations! You don't need to spend more than two thousand pesos for a room if you're gonna spend the whole day on tours! Who needs a pool when you have the ocean at your disposal? It would be best to choose a hotel that will take care of your needs and assist you every step of the way! Choose between Villa Saturnina and Seasons Guesthouse! You can get nice air-conditioned rooms with breakfast, airport transfers, and hot shower starting at 399/head/night! (Room rates vary depending on location and number of guests). And did I mention we have decent TripAdvisor reviews from previous guests?
3. Find the best tour rates! Starting at 4000, you get the best tours that include Underground River (with lunch), Honda Bay (with lunch, up to 5 islands), City Tour, and Firefly Watching (with dinner). Groups of 5 or more also get exclusive tours. It truly doesn't get better than this.
