Embark on a 90-minute journey through the forest to visit a settlement of the local Batak tribe, native inhabitants of the Philippines. Experience the customs and lifestyle of these tribal denizens, whose presence is gradually fading in the mountainous regions of Palawan.
This is an initiative of the Sustainable Tourism Project, which aims to conserve the heritage and practices of the Batak’s indigenous cultural communities, while fostering economic opportunities through tourism activities. The Batak Visitor Center and Cultural Village has been erected for this purpose, and the Kultura Batak Tourism Producers Cooperative is involved in the creation and sale of souvenirs to visitors.
The expedition begins by picking up tourists from hotels located in the city center. For hotels situated outside of the city center, additional fees apply for pick-up and drop-off services.
For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.
