very early morning activity but lucky to have had a driver who drove smoothly and safe the whole 3 hour journey to Oslob. had such a fun experience doing the canyoneering. The instructors were fun, helpful, and just good vibes in general. Kawasan Falls was so beautiful. Would really recommend anyone visiting Cebu to try out this activity. As for the whale shark, it was okay. Great first time experience, but it was abit too crowded but great experience overall.

Booking a private tour is a bit more expensive, but it's well worth the money. The sardine storm was amazing with a 2-to-3 ratio of guides to guests. They took great care of us, and even if you're not a strong swimmer, you feel completely secure. The 1-on-1 river trekking was so much fun, featuring thrilling waterfall cliff jumping—an incredible experience overall. The driver was extremely conscientious and responsible; he drove for 4 hours through heavy return traffic and even went out of his way to drop us off at a restaurant, working overtime for us. I highly recommend this kind of tour for solo female travelers or groups of girls, as it is very safe. Included lunch was pretty good too, featuring a fried chicken drumstick 🍗. Safety: 5🌟 Experience: 5🌟 Guides: 5🌟 Equipment: 5🌟 They even lent a diving mask to my friend. Locations: 5🌟

Kuya Daniel, our driver, was incredibly kind, friendly, and always greeted us with a smile. He was easy to talk to, fun to joke with, and made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the trip. As first-timers, we really enjoyed swimming with the whale sharks in Oslob. We appreciated that Kuya Daniel suggested doing the activity before breakfast since we arrived early. One small suggestion: it would have been helpful if the guide (don’t know the name) had recommended bringing or renting snorkeling gear. Goggles were provided, but snorkeling gear would have made it much easier to fully enjoy seeing the whale sharks underwater. The canyoneering tour was the highlight! Kuya Joel and Ate Dy were amazing — friendly, attentive, and always prioritized our safety. Ate Dy captured so many great photos and videos, while Kuya Joel encouraged me to conquer my fear and even jumped with me twice! Highly recommend this wonderful team!

It was great experience from booking to pickup to the whale watching itself, our driver Kuya Joramie was very friendly and accomodating. he drove with utmost safety and care. ate Malyn who helped us during the whale watching was very kind to look after our stuff, ensure we get the queue and have an amazing experience. Kuya Joramie was very kind to do a stop over in Carcar for us to buy some lechon Cebu! awesome and flawless experience all in all.

Hassle Free in booking and redeeming your voucher. Upon arrival at the hotel, head over to The Clubhouse to register and redeem your voucher. Make sure to bring a valid form of ID to check out towels and if you want a locker. The hotel grounds are well kept. The pool, although not the biggest but it is situated facing the ocean. Amazing! There was a bitnof a crowd when I arrived before 1000, but it quickly thinned out at around 1100. You fo have access to the private beach also. Both have loungers and umbrella set up. Lunch at Benjarong Thai was an experience! Food was not the best and authentic but the presentation and ambience was on point. I ended up getting a massage at Namm Spa and it was great decision. The Weekend Day Pass was money well spent! The staff from the Clubhouse to the restaurant and at Namm Spa was warm, welcoming and just made my whole experience a memorable one.

What to know before visiting Cebu City

Quick snapshot of Cebu City and what draws visitors

Cebu City’s Klook bookings are dominated by wildlife and animal experiences, guided tours and outdoor sports, with attraction passes and a handful of museum visits rounding out demand. Bookings rise and fall through the year, peaking in the summer months and dipping toward late autumn, so the city’s rhythm alternates between busy high-season surges and quieter stretches.

Best times to visit for crowds and prices

Klook data show June is the busiest month while November sees the lowest demand. Prices move independently of demand at times: the priciest month on Klook historically is July, while the cheapest month is typically February. If you want lower prices and smaller crowds, aim for February or November when activity is calmer and Klook prices tend to be much lower; if you seek the peak-season atmosphere and most activity, visit in June–July when tours and outdoor experiences are at their busiest and prices run higher.

Tips for travellers from Malaysia planning a trip

Most Klook bookings for Cebu City are made very close to travel time, with typical lead time around a day and last-minute options available. That makes short-notice or flexible trips easy to arrange, but if you’re travelling in the busy June–July window consider locking in popular tours a few days ahead. Use Klook to compare activities and secure spots when you know your dates so you don’t miss the busiest experiences.
