Travel Philippines,
Season 1, Ep(14/26).
Palawan, famous for white sand and blue water beaches.
Puerto Princesa is the provincial seat of government for Palawan. The city is one of 38 independent cities within the Philippines not controlled by the province it is geographically located, therefore an independent area located within Palawan.
Popular tourist city with many beach resorts and seafood restaurants. Very nice surrounding islands and beaches. Also very clean and no smoking city. You can only smoke in designated areas, and no littering, otherwise you can be fined. We organized our activities through a local travel agent.

Travel Tips:
Everyone spoke
English and generally very friendly.
Its important to have photo ID for flights, hotels, and if police ask.
Its common for taxi drivers in
Manila to try rip you off.
Ask them nicely to put the meter on, or negotiate the price from the start if you know what it costs to your location.
Otherwise find another taxi!
Shopping mall culture, locals love the mall for the aircon and to get out of the heat.
Locals often inflate prices for foreigners and tourists. Haggle and negotiate nicely. Be tough, but be respectful and polite about it.
Shop around, you can often get a better price.
"Tip" can also mean bribe, so don't be afraid to ask what you're paying for upfront. Locals often do things to try help you, but then expect a tip.
The average basic worker earns
PHP 300 a day. So tipping PHP 20
- 50 is fine.
