Getting to Know You
Once you establish contact with Palawan Alternative, we’ll make sure to get to know you first in order to serve you better. We’ll find out where you want to go, how you prefer to travel, the duration of your holiday, travel budget, health and diet preferences and how many people would be traveling. We would be interested to know the juicy bits like your passion and interests and the things that make you tick. With all this important information, we’ll then proceed to customize the proposal Palawan itinerary that suits your needs and interests.
Designing the Palawan Itinerary
Your holiday, your design. It just makes sense that you get to have your say. Don’t worry, we’ll assist you every step away in planning a perfect trip for you. Once we have designed the initial Palawan itinerary, we’ll wait for your feedback and start refining the details. We’ll remain in contact via email should you have any suggestions, thoughts or concerns. The process continues until you are satisfied with the trip design.
Booking Confirmation and Deposit
We’ll begin with confirming the availability of tours, hotels, transportation and other logistics once you give us the final nod of approval for the itinerary. After 24-48 hours, we’ll report back with updates. At this point, we’ll request for a 50% deposit in order to proceed with the reservation process. Once we have received the deposit, we’ll send you the final booking confirmation and invoice. We’ll then continue arranging your personalized trip to Palawan, reserving tours, hotel accommodations, transportation and government permits. We do the booking confirmation in advance so you know what to expect and you don’t have to worry about unexpected last-minute changes.
Preparing for Departure
This is where the excitement begins. You will receive the full Palawan itinerary via email after ensuring everything is in place and all the nitty-gritty details have been taken care of. You’ll get to read day-by-day accounts of all the planned activities, transportation information, hotel names, and guide meeting times. We’ll continue communicating with you by answering your questions, hearing your thoughts, and sending your trip reminders. You don’t have to worry about what to expect as we’ll make sure to send you all the necessary information before your trip, like a packing list, helpful tips, changing money, insurance, and other health precautions. You may choose to pay for the balance before you arrive or via cash in person.
