Revisiting The Underground

With the special request of my mom, we went to Puerto Princesa for she wanted to see personally the famous Subterranean Underground River of Puerto Princesa, Palawan.

We booked a flight via Zest Airways bound to PPS at 3:55PM of the 2nd of December 2011

With our previous contact, Kuya Jeron, I then availed his service the 2nd time around. As expected, someone fetch us from the Airport and lead us to our home for 2 nights, Balay Inato Pension House were they cater the most delicious inasal cooked chicken in the town. 

We paid, P3,000.00 per head for the 3days 2nights tours with accommodations.

I let my mom experience the Tamilok in a moderate amount, since too much tamilok will increase blood pressure. 

Tamilok - is a local delicacy of Palawan harvested from the trunks of Mangroves and also, it is a Wood Worm.

Kinabuchs offer wide range of meals from pork to meat to fish to worms and even crocodile!

On our second day, the tour guide fetch us around 7:00AM for our scheduled Underground River tour. It will took almost two (2) hours to travel from the heart of Puerto Princesa going to Sabang where the Underground River is located.

Amazingly, the entire trail of the Underground river about 45mins is directly under the Moutnain Range of Saint Paul. 
If you looked closedly, the mountain range is like a man lying down with a clear vision of his facial features.
