NOTES
1.
The
above is a sample of a possible itinerary. Although most activities
described above are expected to be on offer, the order in which
they are carried out may change.
2. Apart from trips to the Underground River and
El Nido, which must be taken when offered, the itinerary is flexible. Thus,
if an individual wishes to do something different from their partner
or the group in general, a guide will be provided for that activity
without any additional charge.
3. A
new Greenviews resort at Corong-Corong, El Nido, will be in operation by
2007. This will give an even bigger programme of water activities and
a suitable revised or alternative itinerary will be on offer.
4. At a later date we may offer trips to our
property in South Palawan with guided tours to see the local
aboriginal people.
5. Whilst at GV in Port Barton a Mercury Vapour
light can be made available for entomologists.
6. We normally attempt to arrange for local
children to dress in national costume and dance some national
dances, etc.,
in the GV restaurant after dinner on two nights.
7. Sometimes it may be possible to arrange for
a local singer to sing in the restaurant after dinner.
8. Horse riding around Puerto can be arranged
if there is sufficient interest.
9. Fishing trips or diving trips can be arranged.
10. Some airlines depart late in the evening
in which case the overnight stay in Manila is no longer necessary.
