Review for: 10-Hour Roundtrip Service between Cebu City/Mactan and Simala Shrine Book now
Ontime driver. Vehicle is what was paid for. 10hours transfer between Cebu City and Simala. Each way is already 2hrs on a weekday. Shrine took us around 3hrs visit. For some reason 12noon mass isn't available. They only have morning mass. Weekend visit might take little longer.

This is my second time using this charter service. The driver, Jaime, provided friendly service and arrived at the hotel on time to pick us up. On the way back, he took us for lunch, and we invited him to join us. Simala Parish Church is very beautiful, and many people visit the church to venerate the Virgin Mary. This is definitely a recommended trip.
