Bohol Countryside Tour by Southwest Tours

We had a great time. Our guide is kind and patient. We chose the private tour and we thought it was an all in tour but entrance fee to python and butterfly not included. but overall we had a good time. Thank you.

This is definitely a tour you must do if you’re visiting Bohol. Don’t think twice — and make sure you include the ATV experience! The young gentleman and lady running the tour were incredibly charismatic. Our main guide went the extra mile, sharing history at every stop and always making sure we were comfortable. He even helped us take great photos. The itinerary was smooth and well organized. They adjusted the timing to stay ahead of other groups, which allowed us to enjoy each place with fewer crowds, a big plus. We booked the joiner tour and got lucky only five people (including us) so it felt almost private. The forest was beautiful (short stop but worth it), the sanctuary was lovely (we saw six!), and the Chocolate Hills were absolutely stunning. The highlight? The ATV ride. We chose a buggy, expect mud and pure fun! Lunch was generous, and the river cruise was cultural, scenic, and memorable. Highly recommended.

it was a good and learning experience, the tour coordinator (Carl) was very courteous, attentive and knowledgeable and his historical background of each tour spot is very informative! Oscar, the driver, drives safely and ensures we arrive to our every destination in a timely manner. Needless to say, customers satisfaction to the max. thank you Klook, and Southwest.

Our guide was very kind, and since we went on a private tour, it was great to be able to adjust the schedule flexibly! For Koreans, if you download WhatsApp, you can easily communicate with the driver. The 30-minute ATV ride during the activities was really fun! They also take lots of free photos for you, even if you don't opt for the photo printing service. However, mud can splash, and some activities involve walking, so I think pants are a good idea!

These were the itinerary included when my husband and I booked this tour: 1. Blood Compact Shrine 2. Baclayon Church 3. Tarsier Conservation Area 4. Python and Butterfly Sanctuary 5. Hanging Bridge 6. Loboc River Cruise 7. Bilar Man-Made Forest 8. Chocolate Hills 9. Chocolate Hills ATV Experience 10. Aproniana Gift Shop However, we were not able to visit items #4 and #5. I’m not sure of the exact reason, but it may have been because it got late after we spent about an hour on the ATV activity. That was okay with us since the tour was already full-packed and we were quite tired as well. The ATV experience was the best part for me. Unfortunately, during the Tarsier visit, it was raining heavily so I barely saw any tarsiers. The Man-Made Forest was also challenging for photos because we had to use umbrellas due to the rain. Still, our driver was very kind and accommodating. Despite the rain, he really made an effort to take good photos of us, which we truly appreciated.

We joined the private tour that started at 9:00 AM. It was just my husband and me. We were instructed to be at the meeting place 10 minutes early, so we arrived more than 10 minutes early, but the guide was already there! I was so happy to meet him before I got anxious. They also asked about our preferred course. First, we went to Chocolate Hills, which was quite far and took over 1 hour and 30 minutes. After that, we visited the Tarsier Sanctuary and took the Loboc River Cruise. We saw five tarsiers. We waited over an hour to board the Loboc River Cruise. Apparently, it was extremely crowded because it was December 25th. I heard it's usually not like that. Afterwards, we took pictures in the mahogany forest and were taken to a ZOO with civet cats. The entrance fee was 100 PHP per person, and the cost of the food was 150 PHP. It wasn't included in the tour, so we paid separately. There were some strange animals like snakes, butterflies, monkeys, and peacocks. It felt a little unhygienic, but the guide was funny, so we enjoyed it. He took lots of pictures for us too. Overall, it was a fun tour. The guide in charge, Tony, was very kind and pleasant. We used a van, which was spacious since it was just the two of us. If you go to Bohol Island, I highly recommend this tour!

We really enjoyed the land tour. We are just 5 but we occupied the whole van so we are very comfortable. Kuya Dario was also warm & friendly. He was also suggesting more places to visit if we wished to. He drove safe so we travelled without worries. I highly recommed this land tour from Klook & Southwest. Thank you for the beautiful Bohol experience with my family 💙💙💙

The staff was very accomodating since our tour was moved to a later time due to flight issues. Best place was loboc and the chocolate hills. we were able to go to the important places with the limited time we have. For improvement expecting our tour guides to tell more about the city, its people, history and culture.

I was able to visit all the famous spots on Bohol Island. The buggy was challenging, and I needed help from locals to manage it. At 1300 pesos, it was a bit pricey but a great experience. Afterward, the itinerary included about 30 minutes at Chocolate Hills, then moving on to see the tarsiers, a cruise ship lunch, and a church if desired. It was excellent to visit so many spots for this price.

Our kuya was exceptional!! He knew the perfect timing at all the stops and even went the extra mile for us. The chocolate hills are stunning, the ATV experience was incredible, the tarsiers were adorable, and lunch on the Lobo River was amazing. Highly recommend!!
