The charming jeepney is a mainstay of public transport throughout the Philippines, and Palawan is no exception. These vintage, WWII-era throwbacks ply all of the major highways, picking up passengers along the way. The larger jeepneys usually take passengers from small towns all the way to Puerto Princesa. Expect jeepneys to depart once daily during the morning.

Tricycles and motorcycles with two-seater sidecars are the most accessible form of transportation. There are also buses and jeepneys, but they are more often than not, cramped and crowded. Rental cars are available in Puerto Princesa. Go island hopping via pumpboat.
