Our Balabac Joiner Tours are fixed 4 days 3 nights (4D3N) trip, designed to accommodate solo, couple or small group travelers. We pool joiners together to form a group, making the trip merrier and cheaper. If you haven’t booked your flight tickets yet and meeting other travellers is something that excites you, then book our group tour! However, if you want privacy, or do 3D2N/5D4N, or your tickets dont meet our schedules, then a Balabac Private Tour is for you.
Arrive to Puerto Princesa a day before and leave a day after the tour dates.
Example. If your preferred tour is March 5-8, 2020:
Fly in to PPS on Mar 4.
Fly out of PPS on Mar 9.
Minimum of 6 joiners is required to push the trip at P12,500/person.
If minimum is not met, the trip can still push at an adjusted rate.

Your lodge/hotel in Puerto Princesa
Since it is difficult for guests to arrange their own transportation from Puerto Princesa to Buliluyan port where our private boat picks you up, we are including the van transpo in our package. We only outsource the van and driver, and coordinate/mediate between guest and driver for the pick up.
For tours with 5 people or less, the van is shared (which means the driver picks up other passengers along the way). If you don’t like the idea of this, you may opt to book a private van which will incur additional cost.
For tour 6 and above, the van is private. Sometimes our crew with supplies will ride along with the van.
Given this, please expect that there may be late notice in the pick up time if the 3rd party transport group adjusts their schedule. If any changes happen, we will update you.
This is a rough estimate only. It is highly subject to change due to weather, wind, wave condition. Don’t expect a perfect itinerary in Balabac.

The Wanderwalkers Tour was spot on! i honestly felt sketchy signing up at first but then everything just rolled out smooth. from the first shuttle pick up to drop off, at no time did i worry about my safety, i felt fine. not sure why i’ve heard different. this place is amazing and Jonai and Ardee awesome guides at being there for you and making sure you’re ok and having fun. not going to lie, the bugs are insane. mainly mosquitos and sand flies. make sure you bring bug spray/repellent. i got eaten alive. food was great! home cooked meals leaving you full and satisfied. i came here with an open mind and left with a full heart. this place/trip is unforgettable. i advise everyone to do the tour with The WanderWalkers.
It was more than I could ask for. I adore the island life most of the time. I love how most people in Balabac are simple and has a laid back attitude in a good way. It’s like telling you to slow down on purpose because the best things take time. Also, it is safe to explore Balabac. The tour guides are very friendly and accommodating. A big shoutout and thanks to Kuya Ardee and Jonai. Woohoo. Hopefully, I can return to this paradise soon.
Me and my friend joined the tour and our goal is to experience the beauty of the “last frontier”. Everything exceeded all the expectations. From the transfer PPS-Port Buliluyan-PPS. Tours. The food. The tent life. Jonai and Ardee made sure we got everything. Never felt any worry and it feels like Balabac is a safe haven. I fell in love! It’s just too bad Onuk Island was closed during our visit but that gave us the reason to defo re-visit this place. Just make sure you bring tons of insect repellent lotion not to be attacked by mosqui/sand flies. Many thanks, The Wanderwalkers!
What an amazing way to explore the unexplored!!!! The WanderWalkers did such an amazing job! The trip was exactly what I expected – safe, well organised and really fun!!! As a solo traveller I felt really welcome, the organisers and other travellers were super friendly and it felt like I was travelling with a group of good friends. Balabac is something else – the place is peaceful and really stunning! The boat rides were long but added to the idilic experience. Beaches stunning and the views breathtaking!!!
Very much recommended!
But this was not just an adventure, The Wander Walkers make this an experience of a lifetime.
The true beauty of the Philippines can only be explained to someone who is willing to go the extra mile for untouched, unspoiled, natural beauty, truly it is the absolute gem of the Philippines. If you come to the Philippines and did not see Balabac group of islands then I’m not sure you saw the real golden secret that this country has to offer.
Our guides, Jonai and Ardee, made every hour of every day special for us. The tour itinerary was very well planned, you will see maximum island beauty in a short 4 day trip and you will only wish that you booked for longer.
The food that was presented to us was fantastic. We ate like kings, fresh meals of seafood and meats with snacks and waters provided. Always fresh fruit available – which I love. Every time I start to think OK I could have a snack, there it was ready and waiting for us. And always a special creative flair on the presentation.
Our leader Jonai takes such care in attention to detail, providing a most comfortable trip.
There was very, very few tourists visiting the islands (also our private group was mostly local tourists) And each island is unique and special in its own way. The islands were clean and safe and the island locals were so accommodating and friendly, they even accept us on their special island on Holy days which we are so grateful for.
We had plenty of time for relaxing, we had alone time to explore and take amazing photos.
The Oceans are clean and crystal blue.
We made amazing friends on this trip, the Wander Walkers of Balabac will forever hold a special place in our hearts.
**Please do not have any fears of malaria, bandits or crocodiles, there are none** We felt very safe.
Tips for uncertain traveller’s:
I over packed on mosquitoe repellent and hardly used it.
Sunblock however, is a necessity. I recommend spf 50 and plenty of it.
Make request from Jonai to hire a camping mattress, this makes the tent very comfortable and it is a very cheap add on.
Bring a travel pillow (blow up one was perfect for me) or make use of a jacket as a pillow.
Recommended for singles or group travelers.
Pack lightly, bring a towel for showers, costume, shorts or light dresses, sarongs and a hat. Slops are good, water shoes and sneakers not necessary.
I also pack a small and cheap rain coat if water is choppy then you may get wet and it will come in handy.
Bring a dry bag, very cheap purchase in palawan.
You may also want to consider a waterproof bag for your cellphone.
Snorkeling gear can be rented from Jonai but I also found it cheap to purchase in Palawan before the trip and take home with me.
Bring hand sanitizer and wet wipes if you are careful about hygiene.
Snacks, cool drinks, smokes and alcoholic drinks can be purchased at the campsite. The shop has plenty of stock and we were happy. It was not necessary but it is available if you want.
The campsite has a generator that runs at night so you are able to charge up your devices.
Obviously no ATMs or credit card facilities so make sure you bring enough cash, also don’t forget to provision tips for the local assistants. They play a very important role in your adventure.
There is also no cellphone signal, but you will not find a better connection
