Polina_I, Aug 2026

Excellent

I had a great tour visiting four amazing places in Cebu: the Taoist Temple, Sirao Garden, Tops Cebu, and the Temple of Leah. We had enough time at each location to explore everything, enjoy the views, and take plenty of photos without feeling rushed. Our guide Chuck and the driver were both incredibly friendly, kind, and helpful. They made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Everything was well organized, relaxed, and fun. Highly recommend this tour if you want to see some of the best spots in Cebu! ⭐️

Cebu city tour in 4 hours...

We opted for 4 hours tour of Cebu City, we only had a few hours to spare on our last day before flying out. We were enjoying the Cebu resort so much that we only had that time to roam around, we of course have plans to come back. Analisa and our driver were both very courteous fun to be with during our tour. Analisa was very efficient and made sure we saw as much as we can see with that small amount of time. Analisa also was very knowledgeable of the history of Cebu, we had a great time

Adventure of a Lifetime!

Our family’s canyoneering trip in Cebu was the adventure of a lifetime. From start to finish, it was pure exhilaration and joy. We kicked things off with a thrilling zipline ride to the starting point, which set the tone for an epic day. My husband, daughter, and I leapt off cliffs into refreshingly cold, crystal-blue water—each jump more exciting than the last. We swam behind cascading waterfalls, floated through emerald pools, and followed a stunning canyon route that felt straight out of a dream. What made it truly exceptional were our guides—Gimuel, Arnel L., Jesson Marie, and Riven. They were professional, patient, and so much fun—keeping us safe while encouraging us to try new things and capturing great photos along the way. Their knowledge of the area and genuine enthusiasm elevated the whole experience. We made memories we’ll never forget and left with huge smiles and happy tired legs. If you’re visiting Cebu and considering canyoneering, do it—you won’t regret it. Unforgettable, breathtaking, and worth every second!

The Perfect Island-Hopping Adventure in Cebu

Our 3-island hopping tour with Cebu FUN Group was incredible! The itinerary was exactly as advertised, but the beauty of the islands and crystal-clear water far exceeded our expectations. We were fortunate to have sunny skies and warm water all day, making this half-day trip feel absolutely perfect. The snorkeling was fantastic—we saw beautiful marine life and even spotted a barracuda! Our guide, Kenneth, was phenomenal, sharing fascinating history, local insights, and plenty of laughs throughout the tour. The entire boat crew was outstanding. A special shout-out to one of the boat hands who literally dove into the water after I accidentally dropped my wallet off the pier. He recovered it with all of my IDs and cards inside, and I can’t thank him enough! Overall, this was a beautiful, relaxing, and adventurous experience with amazing people—both above and below the water. Highly recommend Cebu FUN group!

Solo Travel Done Right!

If you’re traveling solo, I can’t recommend booking a private tour enough. It was one of the best decisions I made during my trip. My guide, Abam, was incredibly kind, professional, and made me feel comfortable from the moment we met. One thing I really appreciated was that he wasn’t overly talkative, he knew how to read the room and let me enjoy the scenery while still sharing interesting information along the way. It was the perfect balance. As a solo traveler, getting good photos can be a challenge, but Abam went above and beyond. He happily took countless pictures of me and even knew creative camera tricks. At one point, he turned my camera upside down to create a really unique perspective, and the photos turned out amazing! Those little touches made the experience even more memorable. If you’re on the fence about booking a private tour, especially as a solo traveler, do it. I highly recommend this experience, and if you get Abam as your guide, you’re in excellent hands!

Lisa_C, June 2026

Fantastic!!

If I could give 10 stars, I would. It is a long but very worthwhile day. Our guide for the whale sharks was incredibly. He was focused on ensuring the safety of us and the marine life. He was also out photographer and ensured we got the best pictures and without others in the background. Early into the canyoneering part of the trip, I slipped and hurt my foot. From that point forward, I had not one, but two guides with me at all times helping me successfully finish this trip with my kids. Every time I thanked them for their help getting through a tricky area, they enthusiastically explained that it is what they are there for and how much they love what they do. In addition to having the best guides ever, you just couldn’t be in a more beautiful place. I wouldn’t think twice before recommending this tour - it was an amazing day and definitely a highlight of our trip!!

This experience was truly once in a lifetime! From swimming with whale sharks to visiting Tumalog Falls, Sumilon Sandbar, and Pescador Island with its incredible sardine run, every stop was unforgettable. Our driver and guide, Abam, was punctual, friendly, and provided amazing recommendations that made the day even better. Our morning guide, Cherryl, was incredibly kind and informative, making sure we had a smooth and memorable experience. Thanks to both of them, everything was convenient, well-organized, and absolutely enjoyable—I highly recommend this tour!

11/10 Experience

This was an amazing experience from the the beginning. Driver arrived on time, the line is pretty long but our guide was dialed in. Our guide got is VIP access. We had breakfast first. Visted a meat by water fall which was breath taking. The whale shark experience was amazing. They get right up close to you. It feels like they are going to shallow you. Be sure to bring a GOpro or camera you won’t want to miss it. The best part was the Canyoneering. CAUTION: you must be physically active to make this hike. It is not for the faint of heart, but worth every minute. Our guides were engaging, funny and the best photographers I have seen, LOL. All in all 11/10 experience. A must if you visit CEBU.
