This G Adventures small-group tour takes you to Palawan, Philippines, with a swift itinerary paced over four nights.

The cave’s slow current and columns of limestone provide a striking contrast to the heat outside.

Next up is El Nido, where a full-day island-hopping boat excursion leads to beaches and bays better known locally than in guidebooks. El Nido’s Secret Beach is accessed through a narrow crevice in the rock, a reminder that some places still reward a little effort. Aside from boat trips, you will have free time to wander the town’s streets, which have a casual air and enough small cafés to keep a keen coffee drinker interested.
Accommodation is in multi-share hostels, and your CEO guides all included activities, leaving pockets of quiet time in both towns. Transport between highlights is by private vehicle and boat, with some walking. All practicalities are laid out clearly, making this a brisk but manageable introduction to a richly varied corner of the Philippines.
