Great day out - I received a message from Paul our guide to give us a little information the evening prior to the trip which was useful In the morning Paul arrived promptly and we settled into a very comfortable and well air conditioned car Paul was courteous, helpful, knowledgeable and an excellent guide throughout All stops on the tour were interesting and Paul gave us more information than we would have had if we had just taken a taxi and gone by ourselves I did not feel rushed at any point but had plenty of time to see what I wanted to see We didn’t have lunch in the end but that was because we were not hungry and it was our choice - I hope you weren’t too hungry,Paul! This was our first full day in the Philippines and was a great way to start our trip If you want to learn a bit about the history and culture of the Philippines and see some great views, then this is a brilliant trip Thanks very much

Great day! - Paul is an excellent tour guide and a joy to be around. With only one day to spend being a tourist for a work trip, Paul showed us a lot including cultural sites, historic sites, differing religious sites, a beautiful garden area with incredible views. A lovely day with great company. Someone who knows well how to navigate the traffic of the area.

Highly recommend this tour - We did a private historical tour with Angel. His knowledge of history and the places we visited was exceptional. He spoke really good English she was easy to understand. He didn’t rush us. We had enough time at each place. We stopped and had a great lunch of luchon. He went above and beyond showing us a few locations on the way home to have good food and get drinks in the evening. Would definitely recommend this tour.

A great overview of Cebu’s history and culture. - This was a fantastic tour. Our guide, Paul, was friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable. He offered us flexibility and we were never rushed. He told us often to “take your time.” He even made some last minute adjustments, with our approval, due to inclement weather. We recommend this tour, with Paul, very highly.

Our guide, Paul, was not... - Our guide, Paul, was not only very knowledgeable but also friendly. He arrived on time, his car was clean and he went out of his way to make our day great. He dropped us off at each of the places we visited then joined us to provide us with more information. He took lots of photos for us. I would highly you take Paul’s tour!

Great way to visit Cebu - Excellent trip overall. Paul - our guide and driver in one person - connected with us and introduced himself by WhatsApp a day before the trip. On the day of excursion he showed up promptly and turned out to be polite, friendly and in great command of English. In his comfortable and well air conditioned car, we covered all points of interest listed in the tour description, but did it in a flexible way, spending more or less time in different places, depending on our preferences. The tour included delicious lunch at a lechon restaurant. We appreciated the opportunity to ask questions and learn many important facts about Cebu history. The itinerary was designed well and our guide made sure we returned in good shape and spirits around 6:30pm. We would highly recommend this tour and would be glad to have Paul as our guide in the future.
