Palawan's UNDISCOVERED Gem | Araceli, Philippines (Dumuran)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2018
- Unknown to most people and not yet considered a tourist destination, Araceli is an adventure and a true "off the beaten path" location! We couldn't find much info about it (how to get there, where to stay, etc) so we decided to figure it out ourselves.
If you do decide to venture here, just know that tourism isn't a thing quite yet. Be patient, be flexible and always be respectful towards the locals!
Next video is a boat tour of the islands surrounding Araceli (you won't want to miss it)!

As a Filipino American, this makes me so happy! A couple things to know about the Filipino culture...
1) 99.9% of us (because there are good and bad people everywhere) LOVE tourists and seeing people in our country warms our hearts, so don't be surprised if people invite you to dinner or constantly try to feed you! Our people's love language is FOOD and the Filipino titos and titas (aunties and uncles) and the Lolas/Lolos (grandma/grandpas) will try to feed you or give you free food lol. You won't go hungry in the Philippines, even those who barely have anything to eat will still find a way to make you a plate of food.
2) If you make an effort to speak Tagalog (even a basic & polite "Thank you so much" - "maraming salamat po"), that will make the locals love you even more! It's just the utmost sign of respect
3) Don't be surprised if people ask to take selfies with you, especially Jen because she's gorgeous and resembles Kate Middleton (you're quite the stud yourself, Rafael! lol) I'm sure some locals will want to take photos of you guys
4) Don't be surprised if someone invites you out for karaoke night...Filipinos LOVE to sing! (And you'll probably hear at least one or two renditions of Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You" LOL ;)
LOVE LOVE LOVE YOUR CHANNEL! Can't wait for the next video...
Hey Liz! First off; thanks so much for the kind words and support! Really loved the Philippines and had an incredible time with the locals! Can't wait to share our last video this Sunday (but really can't wait to just go back...😂)
I'm a Filipino too and I couldn't agree more! Glad you love the Ph 😊
Oh yes! I talk about Dumaran in my ultimate travel guide but actualky haven't seen this region! Only heard it's beautiful 😍 very curious for more shots. Keep m coming!!!!
Gretl! Glad you enjoyed it! Definitely a must add on your Palawan list...
Can't wait to show you what the surrounding islands look like next week 😍
Travel Gretl . Funny i just thinking its exactly the place for you
Thank you for visiting my place..Im so thankful that you promot this guys..
I really admire the two of you for not being too finicky of the simple accommodations and for going off the beaten track... What with my country having soooo many islands to explore... The locals will always be friendly especially in the not so touristy places... Thank you for appreciating my country...despite my age I still want to see and explore the islands...i need not go elsewhere if its tropical vibes im looking for!
Guess what? I've heard of Araceli once from a local who lives there. I was at the Manila airport bound for PPS, and struck a conversation with a guy in line to check in. He was flying to PPS, then taking the bus to Roxas, then banca to his home in Araceli! He said it was a 6 hour trip from PPS. He came up to Manila to do his Christmas shopping. I could see he had new runners on too! I liked your island hopping experience. Wow (being the only tourist there).
I've seen some of your videos, and nice to see that you actually give out precise information about the place, how to get there, costs etc.
Long journey but one well worth it! Thanks for the views and support Alex!
Thank you for featuring our place on your vlog. There are many more beautiful spots in araceli that have not been discovered yet.
You guys are the real explorer. I never heard/seen this place before in any youtube blogger. Goodluck and be safe.
It was quite the journey. Blows our minds to think how many other places like this are in the country! Can't wait to explore more in the future!!!
My town.😍thank you for featuring it. It was so wonderful
Oh yeah missed Palawan;(thanks for the exciting video;)
That was a really great video👍❤️
Proud to be an Aracelinian 😊,thank you for documentation ma'am/sir. Keep discovering the secluded place. God bless you both.
4:39, the gated under construction house in the right side is my house.
I like how you guys appriate the culture and blend in with the people, both of you are great👍🏼
love your "sneaky" reaction:-) Where have heard of this place? great beach! The content is understated but excellent!
I smile a lot, It's an awesome experience traveling far island towns of Palawan. I hope to do the same travel in the future maybe after pandemic.
I'm loving your Palawan guides series. You've got well made videos.
🙌🏼 Thanks Rick! Philippines is coming to a wrap soon...😔 Hope you like the next series as much as these...😃
Nice vlog guys, keep it up

Thanks for watching Jon! Can't wait to explore more hidden gems like this...😍
yey, thank you guys for featuring the hometown of my husband..
it's such an amazing place..
It really is! Would love to go back and visit everyone again 😍
I'm glad that both of you took some time to interact with the local people and the places that most of the tourist would not be considered or go, many thousands of Islands and no one even heard of or untouched, both of your thumbs up very adventurist, nice to see both you really discovered the Philippines that's a lot of love....
Always! It's a huge part of not just our travels but everyone's! Really enjoyed our time there and met some incredible people ❤️🇵🇭
So informative that’s why I like this channel! Thanks for sharing!👍👌
Thanks for watching and riding with us 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Yes. Filipino’s generosity/hospitality are unbelievable. When you are nice to them.. they are even nicer.
Some of the kindest/warmest people we've encountered! ❤️🇵🇭
glad that you went there, thats my moms hometown...people there are really nice...hope you share more videos about your trip there
Hey Alizza! We were only there for 2 days and both videos are already out. Maybe we need to head back and film more? 😃😂
This channel is a hidden gem on RUclips. I can't be more happy to have found you. Your videos are straight to the point from the very first second, packed with information. I love your attention to detail when it comes to composition. B-Roll footage is amazing. It just blends beautifully with what you are saying, giving this extra punch. I can't flatter you enough for this amazing work. I'm going to Philippines in April, so there is still some time for preparation. Thank You once again. Greetings from Poland. Matthew
Love getting comments like this! Really pushes us to keep delivering and we have an AMAZING destination coming soon...stay tuned 🙃
This video is a cliffhanger, release the next video ASAP! And thanks for turning down the music to a comfortable volume. Your editing is inspiring.
🙌🏼 Thank you! One more really great video from Araceli, then on to Vietnam! The journey continues...🛫🌏
i saw my country and i watch it. I watch and felt you have different content to other redundant Philippine most cliche destinations so I am officially subscribing now! Man, this is really off the beaten path. What are you thinking guys? Never heard Aracelli also before. Im hype. I'm very sure not only subs but mad respect coming on your way from all Filipino for your videos!
🙌🏼 Thank you for the amazing words!! We wanted to get off the beaten path and explore some untouched areas! Ended up in Araceli and loved it! The people, the food, the sights 😍 Truly a country of beauty inside and out!
Thank you for sharing.
Awesome work guys, love the way you explain all the details.. Heading to Palawan in January, your guides are tbe best so far..
🙏🏼🙏🏼Thanks Arek! Glad you're heading to Palawan and happy we could help!
Truly appreciate how much work and effort you guys put into these videos. Watching them all now as I plan my trip for May 2019 ! You guys inspire me to travel
Wow! What a compliment Jesusa 😊 Glad we could help and safe travels ✌🏼
I just happen to click on to this travel vlog. Great find, the water on that beach is crystal clear!
🙏🏼 Thanks Peter! Glad you enjoyed 😃
At last I found your channel on you tube. Hope to meet you guys again if not in Araceli maybe somewhere 😊 I’m so glad that your stay in my town is a good and memorable one ☝️ god bless
You guys are the best and most informative travel vloggers! I’m currently planning a 24 day backpacking trip to the Philippines and since I haven’t been back for 14 years, your videos help so much! I appreciate you guys including pricing! Coz that’s something I know has changed a lot since I’ve been there so now I know what to expect!
Amazing! Glad to hear you're heading back and happy that we could help 😍
my hometown,,araceli...miss palawan..thanks to you
Can't wait to go back! 😍
thank you both for an awesome video.it's the morning here in honolulu. getting ready for work doing my morning ritiual drinking coffee . i was kinda in
Nice to see more people discovering Dumaran and Araceli a few years ago you never saw any tourists just those going to Modessa island from Roxas. You should have stayed at Pandan Beach Picnic Grove it's a small basic resort more for locals right on the beach very cheap....the owners will get food from town and cook it for you. Amazing place :)
wow!!!you guys rock!
🤘🏼 thanks Rita!!!
Our pride, Araceli. Tinintinan beach there is so much like boracay and i guess tinintinan is beautiful than that. 💕 thankyou for visiting us, hope youll come back again with some other traveller 😊😊
Thank you Xandrea! Hope to head back some day and check up on JoJo and Leo 😃
Simple is the best,spent 4 months in Palawan (2018).Going back,this time Aracelli,last time weather was bad,we couldn't.
Hi, thank you for featuring Araceli 😊, cant wait your next video, island hopping....new subscriber here 😊....

Araceli was one of a kind and we were happy to have made the effort to get there!

Haha, thanks! Not really sure about the romantic route part but it was definitely a fun ride!
First. Yaaaay!!!!

Nice! It's not built up at all so come with no expectations and you should be surprised 😃
I like how you notify your home how we do things in my country or other South East Asian countries.
That showed Respect and seeing both of you as Matured Travellers! Well done.
Thank you! It's important for people to get a glimpse into how things work all across the world!
wow you guys are beautiful

Its a beautiful island
firstly, great vlogs guys , had a vlog marathon and enjoyed them all...perfect content and length plus informative . as for ice in the beer, I mainly drank san mig as wasn't so keen on the red horse but once u put ice in red horse it seems to transform it to being really good. hope u got to try tuba with pepsi ...so cheap but like rocket fuel lol
Amazing how the ice makes it pop! 🍻
kinda in crummy mood til i saw this. Hey im goin i'll be in puerto princesa on the first of april.
and i'm snorkel fanatic. thanks again
Thank you Brent! Have a great trip 😃
What I found most refreshing about your video is that its not all about you- the focus is on the people and the place. well done for keeping the ego in check. Wish more presenters were like you two.
🙏🏼 Thank you for the kind words Wayne! Many more videos to come 😍
@@IntAffair ...consider the jewel of the Pacific...Tasmania.
@@wayneedwards5589 It's high on the list! Need to carve out some time for that part of the world 😍
@@IntAffair When you are about to come over contact me at www.wayneedwardsartstudio.com and I will show you some special sights. Cheers- keep up your fine work!
@@wayneedwards5589 Will do! Would also love to explore Vanuatu ; )
Hi guys! Nice vlog. I'm actually a resident of Araceli. I'm happy to see you enjoyed staying in Araceli. I never thought that time I saw you in Araceli that you're actually a vlogger like me... I have been watching your vids before..
Its a great experience if I took a picture with you during the night event. We were in the exact place that time. So nice to see myself on your vid clip. 👌😀 Hope you come back guys! Best of luck for your vlog 😀👌
Wow! Synchronicity at its finest! I'm sure we'll be back. Another chance to meet up!
@@IntAffair see you soon guys. 😁
It's kind of weird watching people explore my home province. Morever, I am yet to go there. Thanks for this vid, I'll include Araceli when I go back. 😁
Thanks for watching! It's a very simple place but we think you'll love it!
Wow! Awesome! My Mom hid in Araceli during World War II.
WE have a farm in Danleg, which is part of the mainland but a brgy of Dumaran. We have mangoes and cashew trees. You are welcome to visit. I will let you try Wood Worm from mangroves.
Thanks for this video!!!
Fascinating! Would love to check it out sometime! Will have to re-visit 😍
Palawan has more than a thousand island theres a lot more to be discovered
LOOOT more! You don't realize it until you're there! Could spend years in the Philippines and still not see it all...
Int Affair thanks for showing the beauty of the philippines even most filipino havent went by appreciating watching your video its like we have been there safe travel always God bless
make that more than 7000 islands
My Grandfather is the head tourism officer there so I know a lot about the islands and cambari island is a volcanic island and it said to belive that when you hear loud rocks banging it's actually the volcano unter it whick has been exploding for a millenia
like this vid because finally you talked about the people, i thought you would never say sth about it. thank you.
😍
oh first time i heard of araceli
I have lived in Araceli for almost 3 years now...Thank you for the excellent video!
We missed meeting you by a single day..we were in Puerto enjoying big city life...
Next time you visit I hope you will ask for me {Kelly} I am the only westerner living here.
Ahh, close call! Next time for sure 😉
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank You for visiting & enjoying your stay in the Philippines, with 7,641 Islands, there's always a hidden pristine white sand beach or gem anywhere!
Next time you visit, bring your friends & families, to enjoy Paradise on Earth!
Int Affair you haven't seen the best part of Araceli Palawan.. theres a lot of beautiful beaches , hidden beaches hidden island. hope you visit the Cambari Island part of the Araceli too.. And proud to say my wife was from there :)
We did: ruclips.net/video/9C_JHjTsBzM/видео.html
That's a beautiful long beach. Seems like you had a real local experience as you traveled using jeepney and a 6-hour? boat ride, with the locals, like the locals do. Also, Jen's excitement seems so genuine as she gets off the jeepney. Awesome content! Thank you! 👏👍
It was a long one but very worth it from beginning to end! Can't wait to head back someday 😃
Would like to try that trip when permits. Boat rides for that long are exciting. If I may, would recommend the northern portion of Philippines, if you're a land/mountain type of individuals, you'll most likely like it, but even if you're not, you'll be swayed to like it, at least. Specific place to visit is called Batad rice terraces. Plenty of people though, but hey, can't complain. Like we're in a bumper-to-bumper traffic and yet we complain, and yet we're part of it. 😂
@@lestersantiago510 We love the mountains! Some of our favorite are in Northern Thailand (new videos on that coming out soon)! Sounds like we'll have to visit there the next time we're in the Philippines!
@@IntAffair, looking forward to the new videos. Seen some of your Thailand videos. The mountain/cliff is beautiful. 👍☺️
My home town☺
😍
this is a very very good vlog! you went to a place that unknown to many vloggers...
Thank you 🙌🏼!!! Often times it's worth taking "the road less traveled"...
I'm a new one here, my first message, oh so kind impact a good hosfitality the reason why? they give it back to you the kind you show to them you are beautiful inside and out.
Absolutely! Very warm people 😍 Welcome to the channel and thanks for checking us out!
Spectacular..I hope they wont ruin the beauty of that island...no Establishment please! Thank you for a little appreciation of our country
We hope not too! Loved your country...😍
The cleanest sea shore
I came from ARACELI PALAWAN proud Aracelian
how many hours elnido to arceli
my home town
Try Curacha Guys.
Yummy
In tinintinan is beautiful beach
wow, great guys, ur in roxas.. i live here just for a while.. anyway have to been gone to modessa island.. green island?..anyway have a safe trip.
Nice and quite City,love it,have some friends living there.
Haven't been to those islands but hopefully one day we'll get to visit them!
Have you guys ever been to Panglao, Bohol? Their beaches there have the finest sands ever. I wonder if the sands in Pandan Beach is as fine as in Panglao, Bohol?
We haven't! So many hidden gems in the Philippines, so little time to explore them all! 😀
Hi, may we know if there is internet and cellphone signal in araceli? Thanks and we're looking forward to your response
We didn't look for any internet so not sure. There was cellphone signal but at some points it was weak. Things may have changed since we've been there though!
Do they go far out to sea in the boat or do they stay near to the shore? Keen to do this but the boat looks pretty small for the open ocean
Island to island...the boat is small but it does it's job 😃
@@IntAffair haha sweet. I have watched too many of those " I shouldn't be alive" on youtube. I guess if that's the only way to do it then algood. Loving the video's as well btw
I missed araceli
I was n dat island wayback 2016
Hope you get to see it one day!
Cute chicken
😂
This place is my father hometown. CORUÑA FAMILY
I have lot if relatives there lol, visit Linapacan Island, tagged as Clearest water in the world
Didn't know that but will have to add it on the list! Thanks!
you should have visit Balabac.
Too many places, too little time 😩
i want to go there but its raining now ;(
i think it's called Tinintinan beach, not Pandan.
how many hours
El nido to Arceli
Not sure since we came from Port Barton. We'd recommend using Google to research how long from El Nido to Roxas. From there add on the ferry time from Roxas to Araceli to get the most accurate estimate 😉
My friends went to dumaran and I've been told that the beach they went has corals just a meter steps from shore.
Wonder which beach it was?? The island is great for snorkeling! You'll see more of that next Sunday 😎
@@IntAffair. just discover ur Channel . Nice . Tell us if we can find a better matteress for back pain in some hôtels . And comments about beach for sure .😉
@@fr0gthefrench502 😂 nice! Don't worry about the mattress... Most of your time should be spent exploring, not in a room...😎
@@IntAffair . ah yes i just wondered for myself if i decide to get here one day 😉
😎 vid. One suggestion is to ALWAYS carry wet wipes. Especially when traveling to the Provinces. But, basically if your in a 3rd world country. I like how Raf...drags a bit...and let's Jen finishes the sentence. Way to chime in! 😉 #teamwork #safetravels
Haha, good tip...Lot of people sleep on that one! We'll be rolling out a "what to pack for SE Asia" video in the future. It definitely has a place in it 😃😉
do you know that the most expensive island resort in the world is in palawan
7:04 is very expensive in other provinces. first class fish
please show the whole dance video. hahaha
Yea, we were surprised at the price too! There goes the amazing hospitality working it's constant magic yet again...❤️
