Review of El Nido Tour D, with quieter beaches, Small Lagoon, snorkeling, kayaking, lunch, costs, and practical booking tips.

“Wow what a tour! We did tour A the day before and though that was good it was nothing on Tour D. We went to secret lagoons and the most stunning scenery around. The tour was so well organised and with not many people on it compared to the day before. The tour guide was attentive and funny making excellent experience for everyone on board. I really recommend this tour if you are in El Nido truly somthing from a movie!”

Lunch was amazing, and the guides worked hard to make sure we were still having fun, giving the weather circumstances!
