Not Worth the Pricetag

2.00We went on a family trip with 12 people in the group, and honestly, the overall experience was just meh. The places included in the tour didn’t really stand out — nice to see once, but not worth the hype or the price. The Chocolate Hills were interesting to look at, but beyond that, there wasn’t much to do. The Tarsier Sanctuary was decent — it’s great to finally see a tarsier in person, though the whole setup felt a bit underwhelming. The biggest letdown was the Loboc River Cruise — definitely overrated and overpriced. It costs ₱1,000 per person, including the buffet lunch, which didn’t live up to the price tag. Overall, everything in Bohol felt overpriced, from food to tours and transportation. While it’s good to visit once for the experience, I personally wouldn’t go back for another tour — it just didn’t feel worth the money.
Excellent

5.00Bohol is beautiful. Dress comfortably with good walking shoes. There is lots of walking so carry a sun hat, sun block and sun shades. The historic sites are very interesting. Chocolate Hills was amazing. The terrain is very unusual and beautiful. The floating Resturant luncheon was a buffet on the boat. You eat lunch whilst entertained to music and dance. The skipper takes you along the river for about 90 minutes. It was a very interesting tour. I can recommend it.

4.00We had a great tour. Our guide Dolly was very knowledgeable of the historical sites we visited. Our driver, Mars drove safely and got us on schedule despite the torrential rains at the beginning and end of our tour. The river boat buffet lunch had an ample selection of dishes. Its an interesting experience to see the sleeping tarsiers in the reserve. Its a good activity. There are activities that involve some stair climbing and not wheelchair accessible.
Must Book this Bohol day trip!!

5.00I would consider this day one of the best days of my life because of 1) seeing four tarsiers in person, 2) enjoying many beautiful sights (forests, chocolate hills, beautiful blue water) in Bohol, 3) eating and enjoying live music on the Loboc River, 4) our amazing tour guide Dolly and driver Mark. This was a small intimate tour with my boyfriend and sister & we packed in so much during the day and it was well worth it. Travel booking & getting to Bohol from Cebu was seamless as they provide all of the instructions prior to the tour. Our tour guide Dolly is so funny & very knowledgeable with many stories to tell. We were nonstop laughing at all of the little jokes she cracked throughout the day. Very much Filipino humor which is the best type of humor. We were fortunate to visit a tarsier sanctuary with very few visitors. It felt like an exclusive tour/mini hike with our guide. The sanctuary is protected and the tarsiers are searched for in the morning by the local team to help ensure that visitors are able to see a few during their visit. This was the best part of our day as those tarsiers are so cute and mesmerizing to watch. We got amazing pictures and videos that I cherish so much. Later in the day, we snuck in a last minute ATV tour before our last stop at Chocolate hills which was very fun and veryyyy muddy. I highly recommend this tour and certainly Dolly and Mark for their professionalism and light heartedness to keep the energy up & the tour entertaining.
Really a great tour

5.00This tour covers all the sights of Bohol. My highlight was the Loboc river cruise where you go on a float up and down the tropical river. There is also entertainment on the boat as well as from the kids along the river. Our tour guide Janis did a great job. In case you are tall you should request an upgrade to business class on the ferry between Cebu and Bohol and back.
Wonderful "one day" trip to Bohol
