Amazing tour of Bohol must see areas with a knowledgeable and friendly tour guide who will know how to make you feel comfortable and have a good time on Bohol island. It worth the trip and the experience to see the little tarsiers - chocolate hills - man made forest - Loboc river and so on. These places would have been hard to visit by ourselves. We highly recommend this day trip with this agency.

Katya (katchya) is an excellent guide, very knowledgeable, articulate, helpful and personable. The chocolate Hills were beautiful and the Tarsier (monkey) I got to see up and close and take some great photo shots. The food in the river cruise was very good and the views quite nice. Katya was an exceptional guide - full of knowledge and helped with carrying my stuff and taking photos etc. Thank you

Swimming with the whale sharks was better than my already high expectations! Due to flooding the days before we were unable to do the canyoneering but we’re taken to snorkel and see the sardines and turtles instead. Our driver Jave was the best, super friendly and accommodating. Would highly recommend if visiting Cebu

Perfect. We didn't have to worry about anything. The team guided us from start to finish. I would book it again and recommend it. But it has to be said that it is not cheap.

Our guide and boat crew were very helpful and made it a great day.
