Real experiences from real travelers
The Chocolate Hills were surreal, but the river cruise was the unexpected favorite. The food was delicious and the music was lovely. Long day but worth every penny.
The ferry ride is about 2 hours each way, so be prepared. The tarsiers are very small and cute. The guide was very helpful and spoke good English.
We were worried about the ferry tickets but the tour operator handled everything. Pickup from our Cebu hotel was on time. The countryside is beautiful.
You can't come to Cebu and not see Bohol. The man-made forest was breathtaking. Drivers drove safely which I appreciated.
The Loboc river cruise can get crowded but the scenery is unmatched. Seeing the tarsiers was a unique experience. Bring water and a fan!
Considering this includes ferry tickets, lunch, and private transport around Bohol, the price is very fair. Highly recommended for a day trip.
Lunch on the boat was good local food. The hills look exactly like the photos. A bit of waiting at the port but that is normal.
My kids loved the tiny monkeys (tarsiers). The guide was very patient with our family. A long day but very memorable.
