This is a good tour organizer. Reasonable price with great features. Also we are grateful that they can accommodate special diets for vegetarians. The crew were amazing especially Jay and Ariel. All you have to do is enjoy the activities and everything since they included photography and videography in the package. The only bad thing is they only offer free pick ups and you have to pay for drop offs. But over all, I think it's a decent company with great attitudes of their boat crew.

Thank you for our amazing day tour.
We have rented a private boat for a day island tour and We very much enjoyed the trip.
Their staff and service is very good especially to our tour guide Ariel who took pictures and videos for the day which he captured every moment. Highly recommended!
Thank you so much!

The organisation was poor until we eventually set off on the boat 2 hours after being picked up. To embark we had to wade through waist / chest deep water although the crew were very helpful. Make sure you take sunscreen and waterproof bags etc. Kayaking was extra. Other extras too. Watch out for this. There are several tours all charging the same price so don't jump into the first one you see.

My husband and I had an amazing 2 day private island hopping experience with Lovelyn Travel and Tours. Their boat is new and clean; food was in a delicious boodle setting for two; they offer free use of GoPro and Insta360 and also free photo and video coverage! Since we booked a private tour for Tours A and C, there were also side trips to locations under Tours B and D (only those that are close to our original chosen tours). NOTE: Their private tour is affordable but their service is beyond our expectations!

Biggest thanks to Ma’am Patrice, Sir Ariel, Sir Yong and the rest of the crew for taking care of us and for making sure we are safe and comfortable! Aside from their excellent service, for us, it is the friendship we made along the way that made this experience memorable. When will surely book with Lovelyn Travel and Tours again in the future!

I discovered Lovelyn Travel and Tours via a post in Trip Advisor and can highly recommend them !

We chose Tour A and we were not disappointed. The Big Lagoon is great and the scenery and beaches along the way are terrific.

Our group of 9 decided to book a private tour so that we could have a little more flexibility.
- we were able to decide how long to stay at each location,
- we were able to travel the circuit counter clockwise and in so doing avoid the crowds,
- we also elected to have our lunch on the quieter Payong Payong beach

Booking and Costs
- Our booking was confirmed by Patrice who was professional, friendly and very easy to work with
- The cost of doing a private Tour A with Lovelyn was almost the same as it would have been for all 9 of us to go on a standard tour, so we felt that the price was more than fair.
o Included were snorkel gear, lunch and one kayak and even towels.
o All companies appear to exclude rental of aqua shoes, the environmental fee, big lagoon Fee and rental of kayak at the big lagoon.

Our experience of Lovelyn Travel and Tours
- Patrice was wonderful. To ensure that I was dealing with a legitimate company I even managed to get her to take a picture of herself outside their offices and send it to me over WhatsApp and she kindly obliged.
- My first surprise was the boat itself. It was brand new (like a month old), just beautiful, it seems that it could easily cater for 25 to 30 people. Modern, clean and different to the other boats. I already felt as if we were on a first class tour (and my friends gave me a big thumbs up for the choice I had made)
- Then came Lurex or tour guide. He was a lot of fun and blended really well with our group. He took some amazing photos for us. We loved his vertical panoramic pictures, human drone and the interesting way he got us to pose etc. Lurex you’re a Star !!
- We started with the secret lagoon and had just a short wait to enter through a narrow entrance .. by the time we existed the queue to get in was already quite long, so well done to the team for getting us off to a great start. In fact we managed to navigate and avoid most of the crowds along the route thanks to the Lovelyn team and it made the trip much more enjoyable for us.
- We managed to get Patrice to join the tour and she also came along to the various stops with us. At the end of the trip she shared more than 100 photos and videos that she had taken with her own camera of us. What a treasure they are for us as we look back !
- Lunch was of course the highlight for my Filipino friends, and we thoroughly enjoyed the fresh foods. There was more than enough for everyone !
- We stopped at a few more breath taking islands and eventually returned back to El Nido after a fantastic trip with Lovelyn. I can not imagine it having been any better.

Tips and Advice
- We decided to leave our hotel around 8am and it was a good idea to get ahead of the crowds.
- You should definitely rent a kayak for the big lagoon. It really is too far to swim all the way.

Pro Tip – Contact Patrice at Lovelyn Travel and Tours ! … They were just the best !! If you google them, you will easily find their Facebook page.

We found Lovelyn Travel & Tours through the amazing guide Cristopher Pacada who has previously toured a group of our friends in El Nido last year.

We initially booked a one day private tour and selected “tour A” although we had such a great time we booked the following day for a hybrid tour C and then eventually requested a third day for the Tour B.

Cris is an excellent guide and surely a credit to the local tour guides association. He is knowledgable, friendly and very attentive. Cris made sure we were comfortable throughout the tour, took great care in ensuring our personal safety (I’m recently recovering from a surgery and still a little unsteady on my feet at times) and Cris made sure I was supported during getting on and off the boat as well when traversing slippery rocks etc. Cris constantly added little twists to the tour to show things from a slightly different viewpoint, taking different entrances to other tour groups to give an extra wow factor and having plenty of patience to be photographer / human drone. Cris genuinely cares for the local environment and made sure that we were following all rules as we went as well as even collecting other peoples rubbish / items that had washed ashore.

Lovelyn 5 and crew (Captain Vincent & crew member “Junior”) was a great choice for the private tour, really spacious and comfortable boat (traditional Bangka) and the crew couldn’t be more helpful. Junior was great at supporting Cris during excursions, either by paddling kayaks for us, acting as an extra spotter during snorkelling or helping us climb through small crevices into wondrous caves.
Delicious lunch provided by Lovelyn with a choice of different options on pre-order, plenty of water and a big cooler if you want to bring your own additional drinks. Lovelyn also provided a 360 camera or GoPro and takes great shots which they then share with you after.

A big reason we decided to keep adding an extra day was not just because of the amazing scenery but the whole experience provided by Cris and the crew. Cannot recommend them highly enough.
