Underground River Tour with Corazon Travel and Tours - Corazon Travel and Tours, and our guide Roman, were a delight. We arranged a private tour due to time constraints. Roman was ready and waiting for us in our hotel lobby shortly before the appointed time. Throughout the long day he was friendly and informative. He made the day go smoothly so that we could just relax and enjoy the amazing day. The underground river tour itself is unique and impressive. Overall, we are very happy with our experience and highly recommend it.

Really great experience... - Really great experience for our family! We were picked up right from our hotel and the lunch provided was good. We were able to also go down a zipline over the ocean for an additional fee which was really fun. Very nice tour guide.

Pretty good for the price! - It would be hard to screw up something as incredible as the underground river so I recommend this trip! The guides were very communicative about expectations for wait times, the drive over was comfortable and they were very on top of picking me up at the airport and making sure everyone got to where they needed to go after the trip. The reason this isn't a five star review is because the wording was a little misleading regarding the "forest walk" in the national park. We were told that we would get to go on a hike and what we did was not a hike at all (200M walk from the landing to the boats to get into the cave) and many of us were disappointed. However, everything else was great and I had a wonderful time. The care that's taken to preserve the cave is admirable and everything was efficient.

8+ hour day for a 30 minute experience - pass - Had I been advised that the actual underground river tour itself would last only 30 minutes out of a long day, I would not have booked this.
The van from Puerto Princessa City to Sabang Wharf took approximately 1 hr and 45 minutes (and we were nearly the last two be picked up - so this was longer for others). We waited 2 hours at the wharf. Some of this, per our guide, was due to her waiting for others who opted to add the mangrove tour or Zipline. Then she decided not to have us wait any longer and sent us on (but now without a guide). We took the boat to the head of the underground river and waited another hour for the actual tour (30 minute tour) to begin. Then a buffet lunch and back.
Again, we were nearly the last to be picked up and the first two be dropped off at our hotel and we were gone for over 8 hours for an experience that lasted 30 minutes.

Great caves, disappointing tour - Read the whole review. Firstly I want to make it clear the caves were fantastic and I recommend anyone seeing them. HOWEVER the tour was disappointing. To start, we were collected 20 minutes late and it took 2 hours from Puerto Princessa city to get to the dock. The mini bus did have ac but was very cramped with 9 people in total. It then took 2 hours for our tour guide to sort the permit for us to get a boat to the caves. The itinerary is also incorrect. The ‘beach' which states you have 2 hours at, is infact the dock that you wait at, and is not an area to have leisurely time in. The lunch provided was a buffet and it was very tasty. I would recommend the caves to a friend but not this tour company. The 6- 8 hour tour was correct but the majority of this time was in the mini bus or dock, the cave tour is only 45 minutes.

Don’t go waste of money - You drive 1,5 hour to and back for 45 minutes of seeing a cave. It also said “relaxing on sabang beach” but we didn’t do that.
