the Ultimate Guide for your El Nido travel

How to go to El Nido from Manila:

1st book a flight to Puerto Princesa Airport. I booked my flight from Klook for ₱2694 (original price is ₱2778, but I used the discount code: KLOOKNIKKI so I got some discount)


Upon arrival at Puerto Princesa Airport, I rode a 5 hour van to El Nido. 

I booked the van from Klook too, for ₱620 (note use my discount code: KLOOKNIKKI)

You can opt to book on the spot, but it's pricier (₱700)

From the van terminal we rode a tricycle (tuktuk) to our hotel for ₱100 for all 3 of us.
