Contact Details:

     Casa El Nido - (0917) 737 4762 - Highly recommended
     Pepito Donaire - (0906) 323 5956 - Not Recommended
     Dudz (Van Rental Service) - (0905) 932 2454 - Highly Recommended

     I suggest if you would like to get a cheaper package, look for any cheap accommodation and contact Kuya Dudz to help you out in planning your do it yourself itinerary. I find Mr. Donaire hard to deal with especially after I have already paid him our initial deposit and after I have given our payment in full.
