Magical day trip, excellent guides - his was a private tour and I would definitely recommend it. Swimming with the whale sharks was truly magical, and it was great that the tour also included the other stops in one day. The itinerary is packed with beautiful places and it felt like good value for a full day experience.
The guides were excellent, professional, and made everything smooth and well organized. The only downside is that it is a long day with a very early pickup in Cebu City around 3:00 AM, which is a bit exhausting.
We were also a bit unlucky with the weather, and the experience could have been even better with sunshine and calmer conditions. Still, overall a great tour and an unforgettable highlight of the trip.

Angelo was an efficient... - Angelo was an efficient driver and got us to our locations on time. He was very patient with us as we kept having to reach into the trunk for our items. Paula was a great tour guide for our early morning whale shark tour. She got us registered and out for breakfast quickly. It's was stressful because of the time sensitivity of getting into the registration for the whale shark tour, but she got us through. She even helped us with buying a rash guard since one of us didn't have one. Paula did a great job leading us around the tour. We ended up having our own private driver to all the sites. Note that the snorkel gear on the last part was one size only so if you are small like I am, I recommend bringing your own if you have one. It was hard to snorkel in their worn down equipment. Also bring your own water bottle that can be kept on the boat. Otherwise, it was a great full day experience. The guides were all nice and helpful. We got the GoPro rental and it's worth it. The guides will get the angles that we couldn't get because we were wearing life vests.

Our tour of Cebu with... - Our tour of Cebu with Edna and Richard was absolutely outstanding. The day was incredibly action-packed yet impressively well organized, even over 16+ hours. From the unforgettable whale shark encounter to the sardine run, Tumalog Falls, and Pescador Island, everything flowed seamlessly. Edna was super helpful, especially during the first portion of the trip, making logistics effortless and keeping us informed, comfortable, and on schedule. Richard’s driving was fantastic—safe, smooth, and confident throughout a very long day on the road. Their teamwork truly made this an unforgettable experience. Highly recommend this tour and this amazing duo!

All Around Great - Experience was all around great! Our guide, Lindy, in Oslob was fantastic and excellent with my kids. She was super helpful and all around perfect! In Moalboal it was more difficult but still a lot of fun. We didn’t have a guide meet us off our transfer and had to figure things out on our own. Our boat guide didn’t understand much English but was still helpful and took lots of our pictures for us. Pescador Island was less than impressive and snorkeling that only brought us a few fish. The sardine run was a life experience we will never forget but the sea turtle experience was not great. There was one turtle near the shore and about 50 people surrounding it and it could t swim away. Still, would definitely recommend this experience to anyone who wants to check off some bucket list items!

Moment of a Lifetime - The experiences are a moment of a lifetime. The whale sharks encounter was incredible. The encounters with the turtles and sardines were great. The food left something to be desired.

Fantastic experiences but a very long day - Amazing to experience whale sharks so close. Fantastic experience.
The waterfalls were beautiful and my feet benefited from the pedicure.
Swimming with sardines was great too.
If we had the time in the Philippines these experiences would have been better split into two days (hence 4* instead of 5), but we only had the one.
