"The 3D2N El Nido to Coron expedition was the highlight of our 3-week Philippines trip. Captain and crew were amazing, the food was incredible (fresh fish grilled on the beach every night), and the islands of Linapacan are out of this world. Speedboat was way faster than the bangka tours we saw — more island time, less travel time."

Reviews from our most-booked tour
800+ verified reviews specifically for the 3-day-2-night El Nido to Coron expedition (and the reverse Coron to El Nido direction).
"Honest pricing, no upselling, no surprises. We compared Tao Philippines and a couple of other operators — Seatours was more affordable for the 3D2N and the boat is much more comfortable for a small group. Linapacan campsite is run by their own team, that hospitality is real."
"Booked direct after reading the reviews — saved about 18% vs Klook for the same 3D2N expedition. Confirmation was instant and the WhatsApp support was responsive within minutes. The expedition itself was flawless. Linapacan is the clearest water I've ever seen."
"As Germans used to organized travel, we were impressed. The expedition ran perfectly on time, the crew was friendly and professional, and the capped group size (24 to 28 guests + 10 crew on the 90ft boat) meant no chaos. The food alone was worth the price. We will recommend Seatours to every friend coming to Palawan."
Family and small-group private charter reviews
Reviews from guests who chartered their own private speedboat for a custom El Nido day.
"Booked the premium private boat for our family of 6 — best decision. The crew brought drone footage, drinks, full lunch buffet on the beach. Felt like a private yacht experience without the yacht price. Way better than the crowded group tours leaving from El Nido pier."
"Custom itinerary for our anniversary. The team helped us plan a route that skipped the crowded lagoons and focused on Hidden Beach and Secret Lagoon. Captain Mark anchored at a spot with zero other boats. Honestly one of the best days of our trip."
"For a family with two small kids the private charter was perfect — flexible timing, no waiting on other tourists, the crew was so kind to our children. The price is fair for what you get. Comparable to private charters we have done in Croatia at half the price."
