Palawan

Your Palawan local experiences will be hosted by Judith, who is from Tanya’s hometown in the Philippines. After she and her partner tied the knot in 2003, they decided to buy a property on Busuanga Island. They started construction of their riverside lodge just after supertyphoon Haiyan devastated a large part of the Philippines in 2013. (Most of the lodge’s wooden structures and furniture were made using logs from the fallen trees.) They received their first guests in 2016 and has been in operation since then, except for a 2-year hiatus prompted by the Covid-19 pandemic. After her husband passed away in 2024, Judith is now single-handedly running the business.
