About this tour
You leave Port Barton after breakfast and sleep in Sabang, with the Underground River seen on the afternoon you arrive. The vehicle meets you at Port Barton Terminal, or at your hotel near the village, at 7:00 AM for about four hours of road to Sabang, with a short break in Roxas, and lunch at a local restaurant on arrival around 11:30 AM. Registration at Sabang Wharf follows at 12:30 PM, and the private boat tour of the cave runs from 1:15 PM until you are back at the wharf around 3:00 PM. The vehicle then takes you the few minutes to your hotel near Sabang Beach or Atremaru Jungle Retreat for check-in around 3:15 PM, with the rest of the day free for the beach or the forest trails.
This is the slow version of the river for people leaving Port Barton who want Sabang as a proper stop. The plain private transfer from Port Barton to Sabang covers the same four hours and drops you at the hotel with nothing arranged; the Underground River tour from Port Barton to Puerto Princesa sees the same cave but ends the day in the city. Here the cave, permit, fees, guide, lunch and bottled water are in the one fare, the vehicle is your group's alone, and you wake up on the beach after the day tours have gone.
Bags stay with the driver while you are on the water and go to your hotel at check-in, so pack a waterproof bag for the boat. Meet the driver at Port Barton Terminal or choose pickup at your hotel near the village at booking. Accommodation in Sabang is not included. Minimum age is six; pregnant travellers and anyone with a serious medical condition should check with a doctor first.
