  Whale Shark swimming, snorkeling in a fish sanctuary in Sumilong Island and enjoying Tumalog Falls. Wonderful experience!

• OVERCHARGED AND UNDERWHELMED

  Swimming with the whale sharks was a fun experience and I highly recommend it! There were people of all ages, some as young as 3 participating. This was the only good part of my tour. I booked one tour that apparently wasn't available. So the company added me to a different tour and didn’t inform me. They simply scheduled me on a tour that had swimming with the whale sharks, and the visit to Sumilon, but nothing else I paid for. I was supposed to go to Tumalog Falls, have pickup and dropoff to my hotel, snorkel gear, breakfast, lunch, and towel. It wasn’t until i asked for my breakfast after a 4hr drive (i was the first to be picked up at 1:30am) that the tour guide told me food wasn’t included in the tour.The other guests on the tour informed me of the new itinerary, which included monkeys,a shrine, and a visit to buy chicharonnes. None of which i could participate. After comparing the tour I booked with the one I was actually on, the tour guide gave me money to eat but it didn’t cover what i had already paid after finding out there was no food.They dropped me off in the middle of Cebu City to find my own way back to my hotel, even though i was supposed to be returned to my hotel. I had to pay an additional 600php for a ride back to Lapu Lapu, which was an hr away. I found out the other guests paid less than half of what I paid and I’m assuming that’s bc of the Viator fees, but the tour company should’ve cancelled my reservation or gave me the option of whether I wanted to continue since the tour i booked was no longer available. They only refunded me $18 usd, which is less than what i spent outside of the $115 i paid for the ticket.

• Nice time with the sharks

  The best of waterfall very similar to Kongsi fall at Luang Prabang, Laos. The whale shark was awesome and Sumilon Island was stunning

• Disappointing

  Local operator sucked. Insisted on communicating via WhatsApp, finally used Viator email when I told I didn't have one. Late pick up. Instructed to be in lobby before 3am, no ETA tho I requested one. Driver "forgot" snorkeling gears for Sumilon Island. Driver charged extra 100pesos/pp for hotel drop off. Then sarcastically suggested a tip. Niece almost fainted at the whale watching site so can't review the experience. Tour guide excellent in guiding us to the ambulance & medical personnel. Lastly, why were our fellow passengers charged only 1,700 pesos per person & I was charged $109 per person. Mind boggling difference. I don't think I'll use Viator ever again.
