Reviews
if you love to make paddle, then this activity will definitely satisfy your paddling to the max. The Loboc River is calm and peaceful, very relaxing to paddle. Then there is the fire flies, so much to see and could even take videos of them. Very worth the money spent.
Wonderful sunset SUP experience at Fox & The Firefly Cottages in Bohol! The river sunset scenery is magical beyond words. Huge thanks to coaches Jasper and Promin — they are super patient, calm and professional. They gave detailed guidance for newbies, patiently corrected our moves, prioritized our safety all the way, and helped us enjoy the sunset comfortably on the paddleboard. 10/10 experience, strongly recommended!
I have done lots of adventurous things in my 7-day stay in bohol, but this is the highlight of it all! the best, most peaceful, and coolest two hours I spent in bohol!! Vander (our tour guide) was so friendly and accommodating!
It was worth taking the tuk-tuk from Panglao to Loboc. The guide at the time, Edi?, was so incredibly kind. It was my second time trying SUP, and I managed to stand up on the Loboc River, making the tour even more memorable. Due to the weather, there weren't as many fireflies as usual, but I wasn't disappointed at all with the activity. Highly recommend it! You should definitely give it a try!!
Highly recommend! The coach was attentive, and the itinerary was super chill. Definitely great value for money ❤️ After the activity, I also recommend dining at the restaurant on the second floor. Although it's an additional cost, the food is delicious and affordable 😋
50mins from the city and you will meet the Paradise. tranquil environment. calm and peaceful. no regrets.
It was an unforgettable tour. I truly appreciate the kindness and dedication of the guides. I will always remember the beautiful night sky and fireflies over the Loboc River.
Instructor: The instructor was very kind and considerate in leading the program, which was great! propro instructor is the best. Safety: I felt safe throughout the program thanks to the propro instructor's close care. 100% safety.
This is a great experience. Just tiring. You have to paddle for one and a half hour to get to the firefly destination. I love the experience when were paddling in the afternoon, but once it became dark, it became exhausting. We were able to saw a couple of fireflies, not so mesmerizing for me. Maybe because we already went home as we want to go home and rest.
Even though we saw dolphins and turtles on other tours, my kids said this was the most fun tour of the trip. Other firefly tours involve going on a boat or kayak to see the fireflies, but the 2-hour paddle-riding tour where you can feel the beautiful nature was so much fun and happy. I was too scared to take my child with me, but the guide took my child on the paddle and kept him safe and entertained for 2 hours as if he were her own son. I think I got bitten once or twice by mosquitoes, but I didn't care because I was so happy. I went early after reading reviews and had dinner at a restaurant. It was really delicious and a great place. I made unforgettable memories with my kids. I definitely want to go again!
