Cebu City Private Day Tour with Simala Shrine

We had a great time on this tour! Our driver, Sir/Kuya Otoy, was excellent—very easy to communicate with and incredibly accommodating. We were a group of five with two seniors, so I requested a lighter itinerary to make the trip more comfortable. Instead of following the full original schedule, we just opted for the following : visited Simala, bought pasalubong in Carcar, had lunch at House of Lechon, then continued to Sirao, Temple of Leah, and TOPS. He was very flexible and supportive of our adjustments. He’s also a skilled driver—we had a smooth ride throughout (no one felt dizzy), and he navigated the routes really well. The travel agency was also responsive and easy to coordinate with. They provided all the necessary details a day before the trip, which made everything seamless.

We had such a wonderful time on our Cebu day trip booked through Klook! Everything was well-organized, and we were able to visit so many iconic spots in just one day without feeling rushed We also explored historical landmarks like Magellan’s Cross, Basilica del Sto. Niño, and Cebu Metropolitan Cathedral. It felt meaningful to walk through places that hold so much history and cultural significance. One of the highlights was the colorful and peaceful Philippines Taoist Temple. The temple’s intricate design and hillside view were breathtaking. We also loved visiting Temple of Leah — the grand columns and statues made us feel like we were somewhere in Europe! The driver was friendly and punctual, and the itinerary was smooth. Overall, we truly enjoyed the experience. It was a convenient, stress-free way to explore Cebu’s history, culture, and scenic spots all in one day. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Cebu! 🌴✨

Tour was affordable. There is option of all in (~85$ with tickets) or standard (~65$ wo tickets). I opted for standard which is better cause tickets were only ~5$ per person. Started the day at 6am and went to the churches, but since the churches had mass, we were not allowed inside the main chapel and only able to view from outside (I wrote to the tour operator to ask if I could be dropped off at the church at the end of the day so I can visit the church when it isnt mass timing, but tour operator kept saying I had visited the place already and refused.) Sir Donald drove very safety and even explained information at each site. Lunch was at Ayala mall. Ended the day at 5pm with all locations visited. Overall okay, however the tour itinerary could have been better planned out to miss the mass timings. Route taken was… Cebu Metropolitan Cathedral, Basilica del Sto. Nino, Magellan's Cross, Simala Shrine, Lunch, Philippines Taoist Temple, Sirao Garden, Temple of Leah

Thanks to this tour, I could discover the history and culture of Cebu. My guide Gesi was fantastic—knowledgeable, organized, and warm. In this travel, he connected landmarks like Magellan’s Cross, Metropolitan Cathedral, the Basilica, Basilica Minore del Sto. Niño and Simala Shrine etc. with rich local stories. My guide Gesi was also a nice driver, steady, courteous, and route-smart—on time. For the lunch, the restaurant recommended by him was awesome. I enjoyed fully my lunch. Thanks again for this tour! I had a unforgettable and wonderful day in Cebu. Highest recommendation!

We had a wonderful experience with this tour! The itinerary was well-planned, enjoyable, and covered all the highlights without feeling rushed. The tour was also very affordable and definitely worth the price. What really made the experience exceptional, though, was the staff. Our assigned driver, Sir Jenidy, was excellent throughout the entire trip. He was professional, friendly, and very helpful. He never rushed us at any of the stops and was always patient and accommodating, which made the whole day feel relaxed and enjoyable. We would definitely recommend this tour and would be happy to book with them again!

Andy, our driver-guide was very accomodating. We requested to be picked up at Dusit Thani at 7:30am instead of 6, and was back before 7pm. He was very considerate with my 81 year old mother, even helping her go up the hand statue at Sirao Garden. We were not able to enter Cebu Metropolitan Cathedral because it was under renovation. Our first stop was at Simala Shrine. We had an early lunch at Carcar and bought some souvenirs there as well (which I do not recommend because the lechon was bony and the food souvenirs was not of quality).

My mom and I enjoyed the tour! It was well planned and it was great to start early in the day to avoid traffic and rush hour. We were able to see and visit many great sites! Thank you and we immensely appreciate every bit of it!

Wonderful Tour Experience! We truly enjoyed the entire tour. Every place we visited was a must-see destination. Our driver was very accommodating and also acted as our guide throughout the trip. He gave great recommendations for restaurants and even suggested additional places to visit. His helpfulness made the experience even more memorable. Highly recommended!

Our Cebu tour was a memorable and fulfilling experience, made even better by the professionalism of our driver, Kuya Marcial. From the moment the trip began, he was punctual, respectful, and always ready to assist. His calm demeanor and familiarity with the routes made everything smooth and stress-free. The tour itself was well-paced, allowing us to enjoy each stop without feeling rushed. Despite visiting several popular spots, we never felt overwhelmed. There was a perfect balance of spiritual reflection, cultural immersion, and scenic appreciation. It felt like we were truly connecting with the heart of Cebu—not just sightseeing, but experiencing its soul. Having someone like Kuya Marcial guiding us gave the trip a more personal touch. He wasn’t just a driver—he felt like a quiet yet reliable companion on our journey. The whole experience was organized and enjoyable, and I’d gladly recommend this kind of tour setup to friends and family planning a Cebu trip.

Had such a great time on our Cebu city tour! Our tour guide/driver was awesome—super friendly, really knowledgeable about Cebu’s history, and just made the whole experience smooth and fun. He shared a lot of cool facts that made each spot more interesting, and he had great recommendations for places to check out and where to eat. Super accommodating too, which made us feel really comfortable the whole time. Definitely made the trip more memorable. Would totally recommend! When we go back to Cebu, I hope we get to tour with kuya Gesi again.
