Really informative post by Crystal. I just want to know if you still have contacts in calauit? We are planning to go there by next week and we are only 4 in the group and it is too costly to arrange van going there. We will arrive at the busuanga airport by 11am and planning to go straight to calauit, kakayanin ba yun for us to reach calauit by 4pm? and go back to coron by commute? Another question that I have is, which is more easier commute going to calauit from the options provided by Crystal? Is it from Salvacion or New Quezon? Appreciate response... Hi everyone.

We left the hotel at 3:45am, got to the boat by almost 4am. Just in time for the itinerary. The other passengers were the cause of delay, we left the town proper at 5am. The boat ride from Coron to Calauit is (still) P6000; We arrived at the Safari at 8:30am. Entrance fee at the park, I think, is P200/person. And then another fee for the ride inside the park. Getting to Calauit by land is possible, yes. Renting a van is also an option, but there won't be side trips to different islands on the way back. I prefer the boat ride. Because there are side trips such as snorkeling at the coral reefs, shipwrecks, black island, twin peaks, etc. There's also Maquinit hot springs if anyone's interested. The keeper at the safari said there are 20 giraffes running freely at the park. I was able to feed two of them! The bearcats died unfortunately. He said the last female bearcat was eaten by anaconda, and then the male bearcat died weeks after that incident. I only saw few kinds of animals in the park: Zebras, Giraffes, Calamian Deers, Alligators, Philippine Porcupines, Turtles, Wild Boars, Monkeys, and Alamid, a relative of the local Civet. It's really disappointing. But hey, you get to feed them, at least! :) I went to Calauit Safari Park just last week. We left the hotel at 3:45am, got to the boat by almost 4am.

May contact number ka ba ng Calauit Safari. Ive called several tour agencies pero walang joining grp on our preferred date. Nag DIY/boat rental na lang ba kayo? Open kaya sila pag Saturday? Nag sidetrip ba kayo to Black Island? Hi! May contact number ka ba ng Calauit Safari. Ive called several tour agencies pero walang joining grp on our preferred date.
