El Nido 4 Day Itinerary

The El Nido 4 Day Itinerary We Actually Use

This is the plan we hand our own guests. Four days, day by day, with the boat tours in the right order, realistic travel times and the small stuff that ruins a trip when nobody tells you about it.

  • A day by day plan for all four days, in the order that works
  • How many days you actually get, depending on which airport you use
  • Tour A and Tour C broken down stop by stop
  • All three airports compared, with a map link to each
  • What to book ahead, and what to sort out on arrival
  • Every place name linked straight to Google Maps

No spam. One email with your PDF, then only when we release something new.

Four Days in El Nido, the free 16 page itinerary from Travel with CMT

What is inside

Sixteen pages, no filler. Here is the shape of the trip.

Day 1

Two versions of this day, because landing at El Nido is nothing like coming up from Puerto Princesa.

Day 2

Tour A. Big Lagoon, Small Lagoon, Secret Lagoon, Shimizu and Seven Commandos, and how to be where the other boats are not.

Day 3

Tour C. Hidden Beach, Matinloc Shrine, Secret Beach, Helicopter Island and Talisay, further out and far quieter.

Day 4

Nacpan or a slow morning if you fly from El Nido. The road south if you fly from Puerto Princesa.

Who this is for

A good fit if you are

  • Visiting El Nido for the first time
  • Working with four days and want them used well
  • Travelling as a couple, a family or a small group
  • Happy with early starts in exchange for empty lagoons

Probably not for you if

  • You have already done Tour A and Tour C
  • You want a party itinerary
  • You are staying two weeks and want to go slow
  • You are diving Coron rather than island hopping El Nido

Questions people ask

Is it actually free?
Yes. Put in your email and the PDF arrives. There is nothing to pay and nothing to unlock.
Do I have to book a tour with you to get it?
No. Plenty of people download it and travel independently. If you would rather we handle the logistics, our packages are there, but that is your call.
If I only have time for one boat tour, A or C?
Tour A if you want the lagoons and the postcard shots. Tour C if you want fewer people and better snorkeling. The PDF explains the trade off in more detail.
Does this still work in the rainy season?
Mostly, and the guide has a whole page on it. Wind closes the bay, not rain, and there is a section on what happens to your booking when that call gets made and what to do with the day instead.
