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.
