Reviews
Reviews summaryWe booked this the night beforehand and was quick to receive confirmation! Thank you for still being available. We were doing a lot of shared tours so this was nice to have our own private, my mum and I. Our guide was very funny and informative and was good at his job. He was patient and friendly. The loboc river cruise was lovely, my favourite part being the interactive performance of Tinikling that you can join in on, my mum and I loved it! The ATV bike ride was 800₱ for one hour, definitely do one hour -- we stopped for some coconut juice for 100₱ which my ATV guide person cut for me, he took AMAZING photos. Definitely don't wear white shoes or pants as you get dirt/mud.. The chocolate hills... or matcha hills (get it, bc they're green haha) was a lovely site. You get sufficient time for each point of the itinerary. The tarzier were cool to see tho it was quite busy due to a college tour occuring at the same time. Thank you for this!
We had an amazing Bohol day tour visiting the Chocolate Hills, Tarsier Sanctuary, Man-made Forest, Loboc River Cruise, and more. Everything was well-organized and smooth from start to finish. Special thanks to our driver, Ariel, who was very kind, drove safely, and made us feel comfortable throughout the trip. He’s also great at taking photos, he really captured our best moments. His car was very clean and cool, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. We also appreciate Ms. Mayette for going the extra mile to make sure our Loboc River Cruise still pushed through. That effort truly made our trip extra special. Highly recommended! 💛
We booked a day tour in Bohol and were so lucky to have Jun as our guide! He was incredibly warm, friendly, and welcoming throughout the entire trip. As both our guide and driver, he drove safely, organized the itinerary smoothly, and enthusiastically shared stories about Bohol’s local culture and daily life, making the journey even more meaningful. The tour was fantastic, and both Chocolate Hills and the Tarsier Conservation Area are definitely worth visiting! The highlight was Jun’s professionalism, kindness, and genuine hospitality, which made our trip even more memorable. Highly recommend this tour and especially Jun! We would love to have him as our guide again if we ever return to Bohol! ❤️這次訂購薄荷島一日遊,真的很幸運遇到超棒的導遊 Jun!整趟旅程都有他溫暖、友善又熱情的陪伴。身兼導遊與司機的他,不僅開車平穩、行程安排得很順暢,還一路熱情地與我們分享薄荷島的文化與當地生活,讓我們對這座島嶼有更深入的認識。 整體行程非常棒,巧克力山和眼鏡猴保護區都非常值得一去!最加分的絕對是 Jun 的專業、貼心與親切,讓整趟旅程充滿歡樂與美好回憶。真心推薦這個一日遊,也大力推薦導遊 Jun!如果有機會再來薄荷島,一定希望能再次遇見他!❤️
This tour was the best! It was a nice balance of sight seeing, picture taking, and activities. It's not a tiring tour, perfect for quick trips. Our favorite part was definetly Loboc River cruise. Its complete with buffet lunch (delicious food btw!), entertainment, and instagram-able views! Our driver was Ariel, he is very accomodating, punctual, and helpful!
what an awesome day! Tyron was a great guide! We decided to do the 4 x 4 ride at chocolate Hills. If that’s your thing you have to do this. It started pouring rain, which made it so much more fun and cooler in the hot weather. Being extra clothes or you can purchase at gift shop as we did. The Loboc lunch cruise was Amazing too ! tarsier viewing was incredible to see thes little amazing primates in the jungle. Great excursion👍
We had an amazing countryside tour in Bohol! 🌴 From the stunning Chocolate Hills, the adorable tarsiers at the conservation area, a quick photo stop at the Man-Made Forest, to a relaxing lunch at the Loboc River floating restaurant—every stop was a memorable experience. We also visited Baclayon Church, did some souvenir shopping, and dropped by the historic Blood Compact Monument. What made the trip even more enjoyable was our guide, Carlito. He was super awesome—kind, patient, and very knowledgeable about every attraction we visited. He answered all our questions with confidence and even volunteered to take some of our photos, which we really appreciated. We had so much fun and would love to have Carlito as our guide again when we return with our families. Highly recommended!
What an amazing day. Our driver/guide Jeroy was very insightful and treated us like vips. Everything was smooth, from initial communications to the whole tour itinerary, lunch and the whole day. The highlight was seeing the incredibly small Tarsiers at the conservation centre. Just bring extra water as it gets very very hot and humid and take it out of you. For older clients the sightseeing platform at Chocolate Hills is a large steep set of stairs (100+) but the view is just as good at the main level (just a heads up). We went on Easter Sunday so the church wasn’t open but it’s jus as beautiful outside. Well worth doing this tour. highly recommended!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The tour is great. Scenic views were fantastic. Our Tour Guide, Kuya Ariel, is amazing and he keep us safe all throughout the journey. This tour is worth the cost and definitely you'll have an wonderful experience that will put a smile on your faces.
We had an amazing tour in Bohol and highly recommend Sir Tyrone as both a driver and tour guide. He made the entire experience smooth, relaxing, and enjoyable. We also highly recommend booking their private tour for the convenience and personalized setup. As introverts, we truly appreciated how calm, customized, and stress-free the tour was. Definitely a great choice for anyone who wants to explore Bohol without the usual fuss and crowds.
Booked this day tour as part of me and my partner’s 5th Anniversary celebration in Panglao. Our guide Kuya Jun was accommodating, friendly and easy to talk to. Since it was my first time visiting Bohol and Panglao, its a good first impression of finally seeing iconic landmarks/sites like Chocolate Hills and the Baclayon Church. Everything else in the trip was fun and exciting for us to sightsee. The only part of the itinerary we didn’t really get to fully appreciate or enjoy was the Blood Pact Shrine, as much as I enjoy the historical relevance of it, we were pretty tired at the end of the day. However, it was overall a great experience. We didn’t experience any problems at all during the tour and got back to our hotel safely. Would recommend picking this tour for any first-timers!
