3D2N El Nido to Coron Expedition

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).

"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."

"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."

Premium Private Boat Charter

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."

Semi-Private Speedboat

Reviews from our small-group shared day tour

Strictly 4 guests max — two couples per boat, never crowded. The alternative to 30-person bangka group tours from El Nido pier.

Lukas H.
Verified · Mar 2026 · Netherlands
★★★★★

"Did the semi-private speedboat day tour from El Nido — strictly two couples max, four guests total, so it never felt crowded like the bangka group tours. We hit Big Lagoon, Pinagbuyutan, and Entalula in one day with an independent lunch setup just for us. Booking process on the website was smooth and the price was the same we saw quoted in person at the pier."

★★★★★

"After hearing horror stories about packed bangka tours, we went with Seatours' semi-private speedboat. Best decision. Small boat, real time at each stop, professional crew. The speedboat advantage is real — we made it to 4 stops easily with time to actually enjoy each one."

★★★★★

"As a local from Manila I was skeptical about online booking but Seatours delivered. The semi-private day tour was P9,500 per guest — exactly what was quoted, no hidden fees beyond the standard env fee. Filipino crew, Filipino-owned, salamat sa amazing service."

Why our reviews are real

1

Google reviews are tied to real accounts and real trips

Every one of the 2,000+ reviews on our Google Business Profile is left by a Google account holder. Google removes fake reviews automatically. We do not buy reviews, do not gate reviews (we ask every guest, not just happy ones), and do not run incentive schemes.

2

We are DOT, MARINA, and DTI accredited

Registered with the Philippine Department of Tourism (DOT), the Maritime Industry Authority (MARINA), and the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI). Our boats are inspected annually by the Philippine Coast Guard. We have been operating from the same office in Brgy. Corong-Corong, El Nido since 2015.

3

You can visit our office before booking

5-minute tricycle ride from El Nido town centre. Walk in, ask questions, meet the team, see the boats. We are not a re-seller, OTA, or aggregator — we own and operate every boat in our fleet.
