- Flyer652483161530 contributionsa first class holiday experienceWow! Our family of five had an unforgettable experience with the Horizon Sun Seaplane trip from Puerto Princesa to Port Barton! From the moment we boarded, every detail was meticulously planned, ensuring a day full of adventure and wonder. The experience was smooth, scenic, and utterly exhilarating, even for some who were initially anxious about flying. Lunch at the remote beach hut was delicious, the waterfall visit was breathtaking, and snorkeling at the coral reef was like diving into a vibrant underwater paradise. Thank you for creating lifelong memories and for making us feel completely safe throughout the entire journey!Written August 5, 2024
- Graeme G0 contributionsPort Barton TripCan you make another review? Copy paste: The day trip to Port Barton with Horizon Sun Charters was absolutely unforgettable! The seaplane ride offered stunning aerial views and a smooth, scenic flight, while the Port Barton experience—complete with great snorkeling and delicious lunch—was perfect. Exceptional service and breathtaking sights make this a must-do adventure in Palawan!Written July 21, 2024
- 237geoffreyd0 contributionsAn amazing experience!I would like to thanks Raymond and his team, the organisation was perfect, we flew from Puerto Princesa to Balabac, Port Barton, El Nido and Coron in 8 days and this was only possible by plane. Horizon Sun offer a tailor made service, everything can be customized and they offer a high flexibility and an excellent reactivity. The plane capacity is enough for a family, we was 5 persons with a lot of luggages and it was comfortable, the view above Palawan was incredible, I really recommend this company, it will save you a tons of time and the transfer from the sea plane to the boat/Van was so smooth and well synchronized. A great experience, a tons of souvenirs, a great meet with Raymond. Thanks again! GeoffreyWritten July 7, 2024

My seaplane adventure around Puerto Princesa was nothing short of incredible! Pilot Raymond was professional and made the flight feel smooth and secure. The panoramic views of lush islands and crystal-clear waters were absolutely stunning. With just our small, intimate group on board, it felt like a truly personalized experience. Highly recommend this one-of-a-kind way to explore the natural beauty of the Philippines!

It was my first time flying a seaplane, I was very excited. The flight was very smooth but thrilling. Weather was nice and we have perfect visibility. Amazing scenic view around honda bay. On the way back i saw a "dugong"... a sea cow! WOW. Stunning! It was swimming very gently by the shallow part area of frazer island. A very happy and unforgettable experience for us. Captain was very cool and relax... Cheers cap!

Hi Mike,
Thank you so much for your fantastic review! I'm thrilled to hear that this was your first seaplane plane flight and that it was both smooth and thrilling. The weather really did cooperate, giving us those amazing views around Honda Bay.
Spotting a dugong must have been the icing on the cake! It's always special to witness such gentle creatures in their natural habitat. I'm glad to have been a part of this unforgettable experience for you.
It was a pleasure flying with you, and I hope we get to do it again soon!
Cheers,
