The guides at the first waterfall were amazing! We had a fantastic time with them. Would recommend taking the full six waterfalls, but be warned… climb is arduous for someone who hasn’t done it in a while. it can be a little slippery in places. make sure you’re in defect decent health before you go. Loving that, it was fantastic! We skipped the second waterfall because we did so much on the first, and the third was relatively straightforward. it’s really pretty, but you can cover it in less than half an hour if you don’t wanna swim. Honestly, the motorcycle ride was probably the scariest part of the whole thing. ROFL. Definitely worth doing!

What a wonderful experience this tour was! It was my first full day in Cebu and I saw so many beautiful places showcasing their culture, nature and heritage. My favourite were the TOPS, Sirao Garden and the heritage house! The tour guide was helpful and informative! Thank you for an awesome trip!

Thank you for a safe and fun tour! I’m Japanese and not very confident in my English, but the guide used both Japanese and English, which made the tour really enjoyable. She was fun and very knowledgeable about Carbon Market. I learned so much and am very satisfied. I highly recommend this to foodies—you will definitely get stuffed! I really appreciate my guide’s thoughtfulness and such a meaningful tour.
