This was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The timing of the tour was excellent and well paced, making it a full but enjoyable day without feeling rushed. The Kawasan Falls canyoning was a highlight — having a 1:1 guide made a huge difference. It felt very safe, personal, and encouraging throughout, especially when navigating jumps and slides. The individual attention really elevated the experience. Moalboal’s sardine run and sea turtles were incredible and well coordinated as part of the day. Special mention to Kenn, who was an excellent guide for each event — knowledgeable, calm, friendly, and clearly passionate about what he does. He helped make the entire day smooth and memorable. Highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Cebu who wants both adventure and a well-organized experience.

Fun Cebu Tour is the best choice to see what the Philippines has to offer. Our tour guide Mae was always taking care of us, she was helpful to find good deals and remove any stress from our day. The Whale Shark and Sardine Run is a must see adventure while visiting Cebu!!!

Again, like Oslob whale shark watching, did this tour with Fun Cebu and it was just us so essentially a private tour! Kenn our guide was really knowledgeable and shared many info & stories with us. This tour is a much better experience overall vs Whale Shark watching as we didn’t see feeding of sardines and sea turtles. there was also much lesser people and less chaotic. there were also LOTS of sardines and we also saw a few sea turtles! highly recommend this tour!

The tour guide was patient, and the bus was large enough to stand up in. There were only five people on board, so we were able to lie down and sleep. The line for the shark swim was quite long, but we were able to sleep in the car while waiting. The waterfall was beautiful, although the water was a bit cold. The last stop, the beach, was also beautiful with crystal clear water. There were no negative experiences. I recommend not bringing your phone when swimming with the sharks as there's nowhere to put it, and it could easily get wet.

I was picked up at 2 AM and was able to swim smoothly with the whale sharks. After that, I had breakfast and went sightseeing at Tagalog Falls and the Simala Church. I returned to the hotel at 1:30 PM. It was slightly different from the plan, but I'm glad I enjoyed it. The only additional expense was the tip.

this was perfect. probably one of the best tours I’ve ever done. Norvina was an amazing guide and was able to help us with everything even though she had other tourists in our group speaking a different language, very talented! our driver that day was amazing and got us where we needed quickly and safely. also adviced us where to sit cause of bumps in the road. amazing team and tour! will not be disappointed!
