- Going to Palawan this year I had to visit the Underground River in Sabang, Puerto Princesa. Or fully called: the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park.
We go by boat, and take the jungle tour (monkey trail) back.

NOTE! If you’re a foreigner and you try to book a room in Sabang - the Sabang in PUERTO GALERA is a different one from the one in PUERTO PRINCESA. You might end up booking a room in a totally different place, so please be careful
-
Tekst:
Going from Port Barton to the Underground River will only take you half a day by mini van and tricycle. After arriving in Sabang I check in at the hotel it’s time for a little walk around town.
BEELD
There are a lot of resorts in here, for every budget. Please do realize this Sabang is NOT the same as the Sabang in Puerto Galera! I found fellow tourists booking a room in the wrong place, ending up paying twice.
Well the main attraction around here, of course, is the Underground River. Attracting many locals and foreigners every day. It’s best to go early in the morning. You’ll be first in line, avoiding hours of waiting! Remember the desk opens at 8.
You will need to find a group of 6 people in total to share a boat. And when you’ve found your group, you’re good to go!
BEELD
I’m very excited we’re almost in. Remember it’s not allowed to talk inside.
It will be only the bats singing here….
BEELD
The sculptures passing by are amazing to see. Just imagine how long it would’ve taken for nature to create it exactly like you see it today. And this is only a small part of the entire river, which is 8.2 kilometers in total. New caves, river channels and even small waterfalls have been discovered quite recently. That makes me wonder: what more would there be hiding in here?
BEELD
And then there’s daylight again! Well you could go back the same way you entered, but if you’re up for stretching your legs, you better go by jungle…
BEELD
Our guide explains a lot about the nature that surrounds us. We even find some…
We’re real archeologists here! No, just kidding.
The whole walk is definitely worth the detour though. Ending up at a beautiful place as well….

YES! I'm on the roll with making movies :D
This time it's the Underground River. We skipped on it 2 years ago cause we heard it would be too crowded, but I was too curious not to go. I mean, it's one of the wonders of nature! There must be something there right?!
And there was a whole lot of it! I really enjoyed this little part of my trip. Hope you'll enjoy it too.
Also: if you haven't done so already: this is the perfect moment to come over to facebook and join the community there!
With RUclips getting crowded in messages on my channel (thanx so much :D) Facebook gives me more of an overview of who to talk to :) So join in!

Hi! What do you call the beach you end up with from the jungle? ☺️
I've been there. The Philippines has so much to offer..warm, friendly and beautiful people.. paradise on earh!
Thank you for visiting my hometown
Yes its a MUST SEE and MUST be experience by everybody. One of my favorite places. Palawan was VOTED The Best island in The World for 2 consecutive years. Thank You.
Finding a world class travel vlogger is not always easy. Your the best we've seen. You hit the mark on every level. Thank you.
One of the highlights in visiting Philippines. It is one of a kind which you seldom find in other places. You'll be amazed and wonder how nature made this.
I'm going to Palawan and your video definitely justify why the Underground river is a Must visit. Thanks :)
I am glad to see you made the walk on the return trip. I walked it on the way to the river when I went a few years ago. Both areas, the jungle and the river should be on everyone's list. Great video as usual.
+William Johnson yeah true!!! And thanx 😀😀
I am very thankful because of this video it reminds me my childhood playing by the beach....
I just visited yesterday 20 September 2019, it was amazing underground river but didn't know about jungle track,a must visit to all people who come to palawan Philippines
Boss magkano yung tour?
Nicely guiding
Was there last week, the cave was amazing. Thumbs up
Was there 2weeks ago and I was still in awe. Great video👌❤️
Great content, no "selfie camera" nonstop, just nature and the surrounding.
Mom went to palawan since then thanks for the video
Napaka ganda po talaga ng sabang underground river nakaka amazed ang rock formation🥰🥰 kahit taga palawan ako pero hindi padin ako nakaka pasyal ng dyan🥺 but thank you so much po lods sa pag share ng video feel ko narating nadin ako. Sobrang nag enjoy ako lods mag watch thank you po ah🥰
I must say that you Ma'am are my favourite travel vlogger!! Great video + wonderful song choices. ❤
Yeah, you're first :D Thumbs up!! Thanx so much :) trying my hardest really!
Travel Gretl I truly appreciate your effort of coming to an entirely foreign area and finding every wonderful thing about them. You have a wonderful soul.
P.S. Try visiting the South of the Phils the next time you come back. It is equally beautiful and diverse.
Got that advise a lot :) Guess I really should do so!!!
+Celj Filmund Gamay 😊😀
Wow beautiful and relaxing place
So we've been to Palawan but we are not aware of this jungle trail. Sad. Thank you for showing it to us. Great content and I sooo love your voice.
THank you so much! :D
Wow its amazing under ground river somewhere in the paradise island of palawan.
i went from underground river before when i was kinder with my family and thx for visiting our home town! and i went there before and there is monkeys there! i love monkeys god bless!
Thanks for the video. Really helpful. Me and hubby planning to go next week.
Na miss na nko ni nga Lugar ..kanus a pka ko makabalik Dre Noh🥰I miss you puerto prinsesa Palawan sabang
Nice thanks, I will go next winter
Salamat for this great video Gretl. In preparation of our travelling to Palawan I watched many videos abou that place, especially about the undergroundriver. Why do I think that this one is the best (including mine which I just finished).
1) You have the right mixture of personal talking and showing interesting things. A lot of backpackers show most of the time their face and talk and talk about beautiful things instead of showing them fullscreen. I really don't like that.
2) Your comment in the background is interesting. No talking about how the pizza is and other unimportant things. Many backpackers even don't know that you can speak a comment in the background.
3) The background music is nice, but that is a personal taste. Even more important is that it is only a little bit louder than your comment. I don't like it when it is much louder like in many videos.
4) You ask and answer the right question, and we have the same opinion. Yes it is crowdy there and you have to wait at 2 places, but it is nevertheless worth while going there, because it is really a wonder of nature.
5) I like the way you are flirting with the camera.
You had a nice way back, but our tour with the zipline in the end was also not bad. Good luck Gretl for your future travellings and of course a thumb up!
Thanx so much for this comment!!! I am really happy to hear this cause it's exactly what I think about and what I am aiming for!! 😃
Good editing. Thank u for taking time to write down a discription below, I always check that part after watching a video for more info. Really appreciate it.
By the way do u have any suggestions on where to stay at Puerto princesa?
Yeah! I'd found a good cheap place with a Dutch owner but no way I remember where it was 😭 fried my brain over it before but really cannot remember nor find my reservation details back...
Wow! Ganda talga dyan idol! Ang ganda ng mga napuntahan nyo dyan! sobrang nakaka - amaze talaga yung lugar na yan. nakakatanggal ng pagod at bagong experience! Highly recommended talga to mga dre! Panoorin nyo rin po yung day tour video namin dyan sa UNDERGROUND RIVER =)))
Yes its beautiful last 2019 we were there in Palawan

lovely
Could someone please tell me how much time you are actually in the cave rowing through? 10 min? 1 hour?
We went there last 2015 and it really is 1 of the 7 wonders of the world. I remember it was only like 45min-1h rowing through and back. The cave is pretty big though.
underground river cave wow! im sure its a great experience
:D
Where are you going next? check out Romblon or Babuyan Island.I think may even be better than Palawan. There's so many Islands in Philippines that we just know a handful at the moment.
+R FlorezD Sounds good! I only got Puerto Princesa at the moment left... I am home again :)
Nice video
you must try siargao island in the philippines.
I love under ground rever
Nice place, Jovz,
where is the place that I need to go to take a boat to go to the underground river? and when you go by jungle you end up at the beach right? then we can choose where to go or we must go with everyone? please help me🙏🏼
congrats bohol,designated as global geopark by unesco,first and only in the philippines
I go there yesterday
Yeah :D Have so much fun!!!
Were going there today😄
it's great
i wanna go back!!!!
Until when are you in PH? I would love to meet you and have even just one photo with you if you are in Manila. Love your vids keep it up. my number 1 vlogger.
I am home already. Always when editing I am at home!
:-( sad
I went ther it so cool
Subscribed! But please change your microphone or equalizer.. Visit Mindanao but dont go down under like Basilan without local friend..Try Bukidnon Dahilayan Resort, Over view Buda, Surigao islet 🤘🏼 Rock on! By the way,last April 27 was great, even the weather is cold hahahaha
+Pablo Escobar Thanx!! what up with the mic??
it seems like you covering the mic while your talking hahaha not a big deal thou, hahahaha keep rockin' \m/
Thanx! You mean for the voice over? Or the shots I talk directly into the camera? I always have a thing with sound, which kind of annoys me. I mean: good sound is one of the keys to a good video I strongly believe. How do you create good sound in your vids when you can not attach an external microphone to your camera..?!
you try boracay of luzon and 100 island in lingayen
+Ronald Allan Vasquez thanx 😀😀
Hometown ko po to :)) hope j enjoy palawan :) #minutetour
Love it, in two days will do the tour and i think it will be a great vlog day like yours :)
Question, is there a need for waterproof “stuff” for all the foto/video backpack?
Thanks
I always put everything in a waterproof bag :) not for the ride on the underground river perse - but going there the sea might be rough ;) And I like it for unexpected tropical rains too!
Travel Gretl yep, for the rain am everytime coverd, but specifficaly for the underground i asked
Thanks for the response :)
GGV..........Great Gretl Video, as usual :)
Thanx Kung!
Wat een mooie island...😍
This is awesome!
Random question though, did you get the rabies vaccine before you went?
No - cause it only saves time and you'd need more injections afterwards anyway.. i just really avoid animals - also for just petting
soon i will be here
The not being able to talk in the cave kind of sucked, and they could update the audio players that compare stuff out of the 90's lol haha. But I enjoyed the little town
Monkey shits in the woods in the Philippines it instantly becomes a 7 wonders on the world lol. The cave tour is kool, but the ungong rock climb with zip line is way better.
did you buy permission directly from sabang pier?
@Travel Gretl We downloaded your video to use it for educational purpose ma'am/sir, thank you for your kindness and understanding.
P.S only 10 seconds of clip was used.
Haha if you download just don't tell and make sure never to reupluad it anywhere 😉 unless it's under cc license!
@@TravelGretl we wont reupload it, we will just pass it to our teacher. Our teacher told us to comment first before taking the vid that's why. Thank you again :)
That's very considerate of him 😊 thank you!!
I was told by some friends who had been there that it is a must. I forgot to ask them if bringing your own flashlight is allowed. Is there good airflow inside? Still air could be an issue to some. Tours are allowed only up to a certain distance from the entrance; only scientists are allowed beyond. Is it for safety reasons or is it possible harm to this unique ecosystem? I cannot find good information what are really deep inside upstream of this river.
I was not pulled back by the air inside... yeah true, you're only allowed in for a certain amount of meters, the rest is for the cave and scientists. I think it's for harming the ecosystem mainly.
I can imagine. Don't know how much information there is out there reachable for us!
What you are come in india...?
Something keeps on dripping from roof inside. The boatman said it's the Bats pee
I am going next month
:D Great! Have fun!!
What is the name of that beach, in the last part of the video? Thanks.
+DANILO1012 euh... 😶😶😶😶
Amazing video! Time Out is doing a project on the best things to do across the world and we’d love to feature this video as an example of the Puerto Princessa underground river. Would you be interested in giving us permission to use it? We will credit you as well!
👍
Yung taga dito ako sa palawan pero never pa ako naka punta dyan sa underground river 😂
