FAQ

Questions, answered.

Short answers on prices, the journey and booking. If yours is not here, ask on WhatsApp and a person replies.

Prices and payment

What does the price include?

The private van from the airport to Caticlan Jetty Port, the public boat across to Cagban, a private e-trike or van to your hotel door, and the terminal and environmental fees. One figure, per group.

Is the price per person or per group?

Per group: the van and the ride to your hotel carry your party only, and the boat fares for everyone are in the price. Only helmet diving and parasailing are priced per person, and they say so.

When do I pay?

Nothing until you have your final price in writing on WhatsApp. Then a deposit secures your date, by card or PayPal, once you have accepted the price. For trips under a week away you pay on the day.

Do prices change at peak times?

They may differ over Christmas to New Year, Holy Week and Chinese New Year. You always see the final figure before you pay.

The transfer

Which airport should I fly into?

Caticlan is closest, about 1 hr door to door. Kalibo takes about 3 hrs. If both suit your dates, choose Caticlan.

Can you take us back to the airport?

Yes. Choose Return and the price covers both legs, hotel door to departures.

We have children and a lot of luggage. Is that fine?

Yes. Count children as guests and tell us about large bags or boards in the notes, so we send the right vehicle.

Fees at the jetty

How much are the Boracay fees for a foreign visitor?

About ₱500 on the way in: a ₱150 terminal fee, a ₱300 environmental fee and a ₱50 boat fare. On the way out, the terminal fee and boat fare again, about ₱200. On a Private Boracay transfer they are already in your price.

Do children pay the fees?

Children aged five and under do not need a terminal pass when proof of age is shown or uploaded to Boracay iPass. Tell us their ages in the notes and we price it correctly.

Can I pay the fees by card?

At the jetty counters, plan on cash in pesos. You can also prepay all three online through the province's Boracay iPass and show a QR code at the gate. On our transfers you do not pay anything at the jetty.

Experiences

Are the experiences shared tours?

No. Each boat or paraw carries your group only. Helmet diving and parasailing are run per person.

Can I book an experience without a transfer?

Yes. Add it on its own and send the form on WhatsApp.

Booking

How do I book?

Pick your trip, fill in five fields and send it on WhatsApp. We reply with availability and your final price in writing.

Can I call you instead?

We work on WhatsApp so everything is in writing.
