What to expect

Ready for an adrenaline rush? Travel to Oslob where you'll get up close to the friendly whale sharks. This slow-moving filter-feeding carpet shark is one of the largest known fish species - and a true sight to behold. You will need to wake up bright and early for this adventure and get to your hotel lobby in time for your 1:00am-3:00am pick up. The trip starts with a scenic drive along the Southern Cebu coastline. Once you arrive in Oslob, get your snorkeling gear and swimming attire on before hopping in the water for your whale shark encounter - make sure to capture your moments with the whale sharks with your GoPro rental! After, you can discover the hidden gem that is Tumalog Falls, and then enjoy lunch at your own expense, before heading back to your hotel.

Review for: Regular Join In Day Tour with GoPro

We had an amazing whale shark watching experience in Oslob with my dad. We’re visiting from Canada and this trip meant a lot to us. Our guide Belle was amazing, very professional, organized, and kind throughout the day. My dad is 55 and had injured his ankle earlier in the trip, but the team was very patient and accommodating so he could still enjoy everything. We also stopped at Tumalog Falls and riding motorcycles to the falls and back was so fun. We had such a great time and made wonderful memories together. Highly recommend this tour.

Taking advantage of the New Year holiday to travel, the crowds are really massive! The service driver was on time to the hotel to complete the pick-up and drop-off service. He led everyone in the arranged whale shark and waterfall activities, which was really responsible. His driving was also very professional and safe. The whale shark activity was very exciting and surprising, especially when the boatmen desperately pushed you towards it for direct contact in order to take a photo of you with the whale shark. You couldn't avoid it even if you wanted to... It was very exciting... As for the waterfall, we arrived at the assembly point and were taken to the waterfall area one by one by specially hired local motorcycle riders. The beautiful scenery made us linger. In short, this two-in-one activity is highly recommended for everyone. Next time I have time, I will bring other family members and friends to visit again. Experience: Great. Safety: Very safe. Equipment: Complete. Coaches: Professional and responsible.

my driver picked up my family early and we had to queue for the guide to buy our whale shark tickets. however the queue moved really quickly and we were soon briefed by the locals on instructions to understand the whale sharks better. we then had to wait around 2h before we had our turn to see the whale sharks and dont worry about your belongings as they have a free baggage storage. the package also included a free gopro rental that allowed my family to have amazing photos and videos next to the whale sharks. Be prepared for very choppy waves as the whale shark swims near you due to its sheer size. they are very gentle giants and it was so breathtaking seeing them up close.

Such an amazing experience. I did enjoy the swimming with the whale shark and so happy to see my videos taken underwater with the assistance of their boat man. I just would like to suggest that these videos and photos taken should be available in their website for a day for us to be able to choose what we need than copying everything into our respective phones, as none of us (3 ladies out of 9 joiners, and they didn't even know how to get a copy of the it, one gentleman went back to look for the lady who assisted us when he learned from me about it, but came back frustrated as he couldn't find her anymore) were able to get everything due to phone space is insufficient. These photos and videos are the memento of our unforgettable and perhaps ones in a lifetime experience to some. And if your are really fond of taking photos, make sure to bring your own tripod, this is very useful when you get to the falls or bring money to tip the young gents as your photographer, they know how to take nice photos too at the same time you are helping this people to earn. Lastly, don't forget to drop the group to a souvenir shop, not all maybe wants to buy but when you drop them to a shop for sure they will buy, you are also helping your people promote their products (items should include shirts, key chains, etc and delicacies too) before heading back to the city. Other than that klook is the best. I never regret celebrating and trusting my birthday experience with you. Good job 👍🌟🏆🏅✨👌🍽🥂🤗💛🙏

pros: Unforgettable experience, Amazing Beauty, Lifetime Achievement, Breathtaking, Capture your memories. cons: language barrier with driver, a lot of waiting, very late drop off. Be sure to ask for the GoPro, and mention that it is included in your booking. Our group experienced some difficulty with a member of group abandoning us, but once we got in the water after waiting for a couple hours, it was an incredible experience, the excitment is insane if you love Animals. Aside from the Whale Shark Snorkeling, Tumalog Falls is an absolutely breathtaking place and easily accessible. This activity doesn't require high levels of fitness at all. I would definitely recommend it if you're a couple or solo traveller, but do be prepared for patience as 80% of the trip is traveling and waiting.

The driver arrived at the hotel at dawn to take us to Oslob to get a queue number. After waiting for about two hours, it was our turn to board the boat and go out to sea to see whale sharks. While waiting, there were small shops nearby selling food. Fishermen constantly feed the whale sharks and lead them back and forth on a route, and the boatmen help take photos with GoPro cameras one by one. The distance is so close that you might even accidentally touch the whale sharks, so don't worry about not being able to take pictures. After seeing the whale sharks, the driver took us to see the waterfall. Before entering the waterfall area, many motorcycle drivers take tourists individually to the waterfall area. The waterfall area is also very beautiful. The whole trip was very worthwhile!

affordable price for joiner. long trip to oslob 4-5 hours and very early trip. 30 minutes to watch whale shark. Abit commercial, have about 100 tour boat trips, 25 boats doing that each time. tumalog falls need bike ride there and back, good trip water falls is quite high and can have a short dip in that area. Stil worth visit
