Amazing experience with a Fantastic Guide! e

Bob_E, Apr 2024
Leila was an amazing guide and went out of her way to make our experience a great one. She even bought some food that my wife had mentioned in conversation but wasn't part of the plan. She is very knowledgeable and we saw so many great sites around Cebu. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to learn the history of Cebu and see all of the main attractions all in one day.

Thank you!

Unforgettable day at Cebu n more w/ Leila n crew!

Bernadette_D, Mar 2024
Leila and crew exceeded expectations! From the punctual pick up and expert navigational driving, we really learned a lot about PI history and grew more of an appreciation of our heritage. Leila is knowledgeable and articulated the history and cultural traditions in a clear and concise manner. The entire day was full of fond memories but just to name a few: - Little Amsterdam garden - Carinderia and sampling dried fish - Taoist Temple and Temple of Leah - Sto. Nino Basilica prayer dance - Tops views were unparalleled This tour is definitely a must do! Leila and crew we thank you for an unforgettable day!!

We had Leila as our tour guide and Brian as our driver. They both were fantastic and went above and beyond to accommodate us. We loved the itinerary and were able to have an extra stop at the Cathedral. Would highly recommend this tour. Really appreciate all the helpful suggestions and information from Leila regarding things to do in Cebu. Thank you for giving us many memories to bring back home. Love from Su An and Bianca ❤️

Thank u so much! Enjoy your holidays in the Philippines.

Great highlights tour, excellent guide

Wynchester_W, Nov 2023
Leila went above and beyond for our tour. It ended up being just the two of who booked so we had a private tour. Leila was on time picking us up, explained things clearly, was knowledgeable about the places we visited, and answered all of our questions. She took care of everything and made it easy, even finding an alternate restaurant when the market was closed for All Saints’ Day. We really enjoyed every location we visited, and were pleasantly surprised by the guitar shop and the Top of Cebu restaurant - that view! We could have skipped the Sirao garden but the Mountain View’s were well worth the drive.

Thank you so much! 🥰

So happy to have booked...

Rosie_S, Dec 2022
So happy to have booked this tour, so worth the price we paid. They took us to places we would have not known. My friends who have visited Cebu were amazed to see the pics I shared esp the Sirao Garden. The ride was comfortable, the tour guide was knowledgeable of Cebu/Mactan’s rich culture and history. The mother/son duo and the driver were all so sweet and accommodating. I know their names, not sure if I’m allowed to mention them. They treated us warmly.. I highly recommend!
