CORON KAYAK ADVENTURE 1
Since 2000 Coron has been a favoured destination and this resort, kayaking and diving destination is easily twinned with Boracay due to weekly direct flights both ways-Caticlan-Busuanga and Busuanga-Coron (twice weekly flights from October 2007).
Billed by National Geographic in 2006 as one of the world's 50 top natural wonders, Coron is a superlative sea kayaking destination. Tribal Adventure Tours is the area expert, running kayaking expeditions for Mountain Travel Sobek and EcoFirst Adventures. We're offering this once-in-a-lifetime active vacation program for a fraction of the cost the American adventure companies bill their clients. Accommodation is in comfortable resorts or in deluxe exclusive private island camp sites. Transfers, all meals, kayaking and snorkeling activities, park and associated fees are included, as are alcoholic beverages in camp sites. (The price of airfare from and to Boracay is not included, but we can facilitate bookings and tickets on your and your client's behalf should you wish. Currently the fare is around 125 usd one-way per adult. As there are daily flights between Manila and Busuanga/Coron and vice versa the trip, with these fares at about half the Boracay-Busuanga-Boracay price, your clients need not start and end in Boracay).
