Puerto Princesa Airport to El Nido Destination Reviews

Terrible service without proper order confirmation, you should probably go sell parks, that would be better for you

The Worst part was that the driver was playing really loud music for most of the trip. I don't think it was that bad but it could have just been because I was next to a speaker and also tired after a a day of traveling before. The vehicle took multiple which I found unnecessary stops. To fill up gas and a and just randomly waiting for passengers. I mean to me like the trip took way longer and by the time we actually left the office it was half an hour. And then of course we went to get fuel and if you passengers. I mean technically it does say 1 to 2 hours for different for a reason. But also I was disappointed that they just dropped us off nearly in town. Meaning I decided to get a tuk tuk. And I mean literally 5 minutes down the road. I could have probably walked but it was on the main strip so just full of cars. And we arrived at like 8:00 pm after leaving at 1:00.

Trop was ok and in time. Just a pity that the seats are really narrow and not confortable for such a 5h road trip. Fortunately people are very kind and we made several pauses.

Nice stuff and driver, very welcome nad helpful before and during the trip. Bad part? The trip took over 7 hours. We waited a long time for some guests, then picked up a few in Puerto Princessa, make a couple of stops and left the city after over two hours. On the way, we stopped twice for bathroom (which is great) but also food (around 11PM). We get better seats as tourists, so more leg room. Bags where driving with us, but hopefully not on the laps.

Payment issue is not solved. The price was 1330 PHP but somehow 20,32 EUR was paid. The ride should start at 13.00 but we departured at 14.45. Van was packed with too many people, Terrible ride!

No problem in letting the customer wait 1 hour, replace some tires on the way? Like why, with a van full of people. Van was hot and cramped. To make up for the time loss, the driver drove like a madman, almost killing some dogs on the way.
