Private Transfer
We had a positive experience with our transfer from Puerto Princesa to El Nido! The driver was professional. For a 5 hr drive, the price felt reasonable.

Decent core service, but professionalism is lacking.
Driver was nice & the car was clean. However, the pickup was late (our flight was landing in the middle of the night), no meet-and-greet, and finally after several minutes a sedan picked us up. We did shift to the van before the car ride to El Nido, but it was far less than ideal. Everyone around us was getting picked by their drivers waiting for them with placards. Disappointed.

Easiest and Best transportation to El Nido
Do yourself a favor and book this tour. It’s professional, great communication, and easy. When you tour the Philippines it’s great to have a company like this that cares about your journey. I booked the van for myself, it was clean, drivers were friendly and the journey was smooth.
Operator response
Hi Sammy, Thank you very much for the kind words and for taking the time to share your experience. We’re glad to hear you found the service professional, smooth, and easy, and that you appreciated the clean van and friendly driving. You were also especially lucky on this trip—you were personally driven by the owner himself, Gilbert. That came with a few unexpected extras, including a complimentary sunset dinner and plenty of local tips and recommendations you won’t usually get from a guidebook. Not every guest gets the “owner-driven” experience. We truly appreciate your trust and are happy to have been part of your journey in the Philippines. We hope to see you again on your next visit. Safe travels and thank you again for choosing us.

Smooth ride
Van was clean and the driver RJM Eya was really helpful. We had to use the restroom & he stopped in front of a sari-sari store/house if we could use their restroom. The owner obliged and wouldn’t accept any payment.

Puerto Princesa to el nido not an experience i would like to experience again
Was a waste of time having an English speaking driver as he did not communicate with us at all. He would just stop the van and say we will be here for an amount of time and that was it. The van was not modern or comfortable and the driver drove erratically.

Great Transformation High Price.
The transportation was great! We had a great driver who was professional and knew how to pass every car and motorcycle on the road with respect! We made it in 4 hours with a break for the driver and we ate lunch. The reason for 3 stars was the price. This trip was $280 and we found a return trip for $170. Check around! Our driver did not speak English but was kind and took us directly to our Hotel

Excellent service
We booked private transfer tour from PPS to El Nido and private transfer tour with underground river tour from El Nido to PPS. Service was excellent. They come to pick up us ontime. Our flight was delay one time and driver waited at the airport for almost two hours. They msg you the day before the tour day and communicate with you if pickup time needs to change.

Great private transportation in Palawan
We booked private transportation from Puerto Princessa to Port Barton and then Port Barton to El Nido. The driving was very safe and the drivers were friendly and approachable - we drove in a van and then a car and both were spacious and air conditioned. Gilbert was easily contactable via WhatsApp which was great. I would definitely recommend this company over shared vans for comfortability and safety - thank you, Diskubre!
