        Memorable and exhilarating experience
        The experienced in Moalboal in Cebu is renowned for its stunning marine life, particularly the sardine run where thousands of sardines move together in mesmerizing formations. And swimming with turtles adds another level of magic to the experience. Mantayupan Falls, on the other hand, offers a refreshing break amidst lush greenery and cascading waters. The combination of these two destinations provides a well-rounded tour, blending under Our personal experienced in this tour, we described as a memorable and exhilarating experience. The opportunity to witness the natural wonders of both the sea and the land in one trip is definitely something to cherish. And having a knowledgeable and accommodating tour guide like Paul surely enhanced our experience.

        Great Snorkeling but long drive from Cebu
        I took this tour since my original whale shark watching tour was cancelled. The ride to the location is three hours over some very bumpy roads. If bumpy roads don’t agree with you, this isn’t the tour for you. We only had four people on our tour, which was nice. At the location we had two guides for the snorkeling. They provided a mask and we could rent fins if we wanted ($3, definitely worth it). We snorkeled off the beach. The sardines were plentiful and there were some other colorful fish. One person in our group had a Go Pro so one of the guides dove down and took videos of us with the sardines. I had a life jacket on so the other guide would push me down to get closer to the fish and get better videos. That worked well. There was an older lady in our group and one of the guides took her around with a ring. They were very accommodating. We saw a couple of turtles and were able to get very close to them, although there were tons of people around them. After that there were shower facilities you could use which cost around 75 cents. We went to a beach that was somewhat crowded and had some seafood restaurants around it, although they looked questionable. The ride back to Cebu was 4-5 hours due to traffic. While I liked the snorkeling, it was a very long trip for only around an hour of snorkeling.

      The whale sharks, monkeys, and turtles were worth it. Especially the monkeys was a really cool experience.

      BUT, we only chose this tour because of the schedule, shorter than others AND advertised 1 hours with whale sharks. NOPE, it was only 30 minutes. Then, the timing is all off, we got picked up at 3:40am and returned at almost 8:30pm. That's just about 17 hours! The schedule was not accurate and did not go as advertised, our driver was nice but he didn't communicate well. We had our lunch stop and asked how long and he said however long, my husband and I came back right after eating because we knew we had more stops, and then waited about 30+ minutes for the others, which didn't seem right.

      We also got picked up first and dropped off first, which added 2 hours for us. I don't think this is right and they should have dropped us off first since we had the longer day. Instead, we sat in traffic for over an hour and if he dropped us off first we wouldn't have been in traffic for an hour.
