This tour was really... - This tour was really good! Our driver and guide (Luz & Edna) were very nice and friendly. Safe driving. An adequate amount of time was spent at each spot and changes in the itinerary were made to accomodate each activity (such as going to Sumilon Island while waiting for our whale shark queue). The Tumalog Falls was amazing! Sea turtles were cute and seeing sardine runs was amazing. The only unfortunate part was the weather and it was windy so the waves in the water were pretty rough especially if you cannot swim or uncomfortable in water. You cannot nature and the winds so try and enjoy what you can!

Amazing Experience - We began our adventure at 2:30 am and McCoy drove us down to see the whale sharks. We really enjoyed our drive and interactions with him. We then met up with Michelle and she was so helpful and really helped us make our trip so memorable. The breakfast and view was great! The whale sharks were unforgettable. After we went to the water fall which were so impressive. Rj and Win Win took us to the sardines and they did everything in their power to make sure we got the best pictures. What a great day! So glad we went with this company. Every employee was top notch

AMAZING! - What can I’d say, an amazing (but long) day! Our driver was Abam who was incredible, patient and obliging. Our guide was Ellen who carried and held our bags at the waterfall and then for the whale shark swim. Everything was timed to perfection with lots of explanation of what we had to do. If I could suggest one minor improvement, it would be good if the driver and guide gave a bit of history of the places we visited and why there are whale sharks and sardines in these areas. Other than that, highly recommend Cebu Tours and the incredible Abam and Ellen.

Must book tour!!! - We had such an incredible experience on this whale shark tour, and a huge part of that was thanks to our amazing team! Michele, our tour guide, was so friendly, welcoming, and made us feel comfortable from the start. She really went above and beyond to make sure we were having a great time and knew exactly what to expect. Alex, our driver, was just as fantastic—super kind, professional, and made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. What really stood out was how they both helped capture the moment for us. They took our GoPro and got the most amazing underwater shots—we were honestly blown away by how good they turned out! This was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and Michele and Alex made it even more special. Highly recommend this tour if you’re looking for something unforgettable!

The tour was well planned... - The tour was well planned and scheduled. The guides and drivers met us promptly and make all connections to each activity pretty seamless. We were told to set off an hour earlier than what was original 4am to secure an early queue number for the whale shark experience . The drive to Oslob from Cebu city took about just under 3 hours. We arrived to get a less than 200 queue number and proceeded to have a light breakfast. After breakfast we were arrange to visit Sumilon island for some beach swimming which was part of the tour itinerary while waiting for our queue. While on sumilon island we were offered the option to have a guide(500peso) for snorkelling with fee for the mask and snorkels(100peso each). At the whale shark viewing, we were again asked to rent mask and snorkels( 200peso each) which we thought was already included as part of the tour package, but some how wasn’t. Aside from this mismatch of the tour provision , all other scheduling was well done and we had an enjoyable day around the island and the tour.

A long but great day; the van could have been better. - Paperwork said 4am pick up, driver had been told and arrived at 3am. We had an old, rather uncomfortable van, for such a long drive but, apart from that we had an amazing day, though very long. The whale shark experience wasn't quite as I expected, but the whole day was really fun and we saw a lot. Most of it, apart from the whale shark experience, we had boats to ourselves. The snorkelling at Sumilon Island was really good and worth doing. Nothing seen at Pescador Island but we saw the sardines and green turtles at Moalboal.
