Palawan Transfers
Palawan is quite a huge island province. It is the biggest province in the Philippines as a whole. That is why it is just logical to consider transfers from airports and ports to any specific destination in the island if you are planning to spend a vacation there. Because total land area is significant and topography is just as challenging, some tourists are having harder time when dealing with mobility issues within Palawan.
To begin with, there are many types of land transportations that are available upon vacationers' arrival at an airport. Particularly, the main airport at the provincial capital of Puerto Princesa City is flooding with numerous vehicles that can be leased. There are cabs, vans and shuttle buses that are readily available to take any tourist to any hotel and accommodation site around the area. For international vacationers, trying out land transfers through the specially customized Jeepney, a type of land commuting transport endemic in the Philippines, is a must for a really unique and unusual experience.
CAR RENTAL AGENCIES
For vacationers who want to drive cars during the entire duration of stay in Palawan, there are even several local car rentals available. When renting a car for your stay, of course, you have to present your valid driving license from your home country. Cars in the Philippines in general are left-hand drives so make sure you can comfortably maneuver if you are used to running right-hand drive cars.
Do you intend to go or drop by one of the tourist islands in Palawan? There are more than a thousand beautiful islets and coves open to tourists across the province. If you need to drop by and explore any of those smaller islands, there are boat transfer services available. For example, there are private Dos Palmas boats fetching vacationers from the main pier. Such boat transfers sail across the Honda Bay to the Arreceffi Island, where the popular beach resort is located.
TRAVEL PACKAGES INCLUDE TRANSFERS
If you are going on vacation or travel packages, you most probably will not be thinking about possible hassles over transfers.

When booking reservations at such tours and vacation packages, make sure to check out whether they are inclusive of transfers.
