About This Experience
This trip suits budget travellers who want a packed schedule and a published route. The downside is that the operator is hard to check: we could not find an official website for Exodus Expedition, the listing has only 16 reviews, and one recent reviewer says they were moved onto another company’s boat because the group was not full. On dates we checked in late October 2026 it cost $281 per person, the lowest of the seven expeditions we review in full.
The listing names the stops. Day one covers Waling Waling or Bulog Dos, Coco Beach, the Ditaytayan sandbar and Araw Beach. Day two takes in Hinapupuan Island, cliff jumping at Double Nueva, the RGN coral garden and Cagdanao Island before camp. Day three brings turtle watching at Bulawit, Takling (Cobra Island), starfish at Kalibangbangan Island and the Daracoton shipwreck, before landing at Dipnay port for the transfer to El Nido.
Nights are at a private beach camp in nipa huts or bamboo houses. Meals are full board with snacks and hot and cold drinks, and the listing promises seafood. Shared kayaks, snorkel gear and life jackets are included, and the activity list runs from fishing, beach volleyball and a morning yoga or wellness session to a village visit, bonfire, karaoke and a boodle fight dinner.
Fees are split. The Culion environmental fee and all entrance fees are included, but the Linapacan and El Nido environmental fees are not (PHP 200 and PHP 400 per person at the published rates). The van at the start only collects from Coron town proper. Free cancellation runs up to 24 hours before departure.
We’d book it only if price is the deciding factor. Keep cash and valuables on you at camp, since one reviewer reported cash taken while they slept.

What Travelers Say
Rated 4.7/5 by 16 verified GetYourGuide travelers.
It was great! Ivan was an amazing leader, and I saw so many things. We stopped off at plenty of islands each day, I saw turtles, squid, pufferfish, black tip reef sharks, a sting ray, and lots of fish. The food was amazing, and overall it was a great experience!
