Reviews
Our experience was fantastic! Truly one of a kind! Our tour was organized by Mcrich Travel and Tours, including the Canyoneering activity. Communication was smooth and timely—thank you for that. Our driver, Sir Glenn, was approachable and accompanied us throughout the entire trip. The island hopping in Moalboal was incredible; swimming with the sardines and turtles was an unforgettable experience. The guides were incredibly helpful, assisting us in taking great videos and photos while ensuring our safety during swimming. Lunch was complimentary, and I appreciated the accommodation for our companion who doesn't eat meat by providing different food. The highlight was definitely the canyoneering!!! Everything was just fantastic, from my co-joiners, to the tour guides, and, of course, the location itself. Kudos to all the tour guides who assisted us, even when we were unsure of what to do. A special appreciation to Sir Bryan, our canyoneering guide, who captured incredible photos and videos from the zipline experience until the end. He guided us well and prioritized our safety. He was kind, and we shared laughs throughout the entire experience. It was incredibly fun and enjoyable. I highly recommend the canyoneering experience! Thank you so much, Mcrich! Thank you so much, Cebu! Notes on canyoneering: * Zipline costs Php600. * We spent 4 hours on the activity (but this depends on your pacing, as some of our friends (co-joiners) spent 5-6 hours). * We were a group of 10, with 5 guides (the ratio is 2:1). * If you prefer, you can bring trekking shoes, but they also have rentals available. * If you want to bring some of your things, make sure to have a dry bag. Thank your tour guides because they will probably carry this. God bless and enjoy your trip!
SURREAL EXPERIENCE!! I rarely write reviews for Klook but I’ll make an exception for this activity. There are six of us in this tour and each one of us was assigned 1 tour guide each. They’ll take care of you and guide you along the way. Even the driver assigned to us was polite and even recommended restaurants for us to try here in Cebu. The Moalboal tour was good as well. For my non swimmer girlies, fear not because the tour guide is a professional diver and will help you capture your instagram moment with the pawikan. Overall good experience and highly recommended!
AMAZING TRIP! Exceeded all of our expectations!! Arnol and Tabu (might be wrong pronunciation but they were both with us that day) did the best job taking care of us, making sure we have everything we need. At the beginning we visited several islands to see corals, reefs - they also allow to rent a GoPro AND they take GREAT SHOTS throughout the whole day! We then went to see turtles (for 30 min each activity - enough time for everyone to enjoy) and we saw 3 turtles that day! What a luck! After that, we were taken to see sardines near the beach and then enjoyed our lunch. Second half of the day is spent at Badian Canyons - thrilling adventures with lots of fun and breathtaking views!! It was one of the best experiences I’ve had in my life and would 1000% recommend it to anyone!!
it was amazing!! Moalboal sardine run was very cool and the turtles were so close to the shore we got to see them up close. The guides were amazing at making sure you get good photos so make sure you rent the go pro! But the highlight of the day was thr canyoneering, the adrenaline high from all the jumps were just thrilling and the swings were so much fun! The guides were great in encouraging me to do the jumps and again so good in taking photos and videos. Would do it again!!!
I think my photos speak for itself. Best tour I have ever joined, the things I saw and experienced. Seeing the sardine runs and sea turtles up close. Getting to ride a motorbike and zipline before canyoneering (PHP 600). And having the best guides we ever met! Jumping off cliffs and waterfalls, sliding down rock slides, swinging off cliffs, it was so much fun. Not as physically demanding as it seems but we sure were tired at the end of the day.
We were picked up by Elizer who was an absolutely lovely guy! He had great conversation, lots of knowledge of the history of Cebu, awesome tips regarding other tours we could do (Oslob whale sharks) and was super funny, Elizer really made a great start and finish to this tour and i would recommend requesting him to be your driver. We headed to Badian where we were met by Brian and Elnard who were lovely and helpful they were the ones who took us on the canyoneering tour. I felt so well taken care of on this tour, Brian made sure we had the most amazing photos and Elnard made sure that we had the most fun experience. Would highly recommend these two. We also did the Moalboal island hopping tour, unfortunately I did not receive the names of our two snorkelling guides but they were absolutely amazing! I am not a very strong swimmer and they went out of their way to make me feel safe. One even came in and practically dragged me along while he swam so i could see all the wildlife lol! They ensured we had great photos and you could tell they knew the ocean very well! Their boat driving was impeccable. Overall an amazing day spent doing awesome activities with lovely helpful people. Thank you team!!
We are a family of 5 people and we had the best time during the entire time. We were pick up at the hotel by 5am and reached the first destination which is the Badian Canyoneering. We opt for Zip Line to save our time and energy which is a great extra. We were guided by McRich headed by Marissa, each one of us has a guide of it's own which is a must to make sure your safety during the expedition. The entire Canyoneering staffs are very enthusiastic and they took care of us the entire time and took great photos too. Kudos to the team. After the lunch, we headed next to Moalboal for sardine run which is outstanding and the underwater scenery was beautiful enough to leave you speechless.
The itinerary was rich in content. Although no one contacted us or informed us of the meeting time and location the next day until the morning before departure, we received a reply after proactively asking the other party and the driver arrived on time. Remember to bring your own water. There is no water provided in the morning snorkeling trip. You have to rent your own fins for 150 pesos a time. Try to wear long sleeves. There were a lot of jellyfish at the first snorkeling point in the morning. We were all stung everywhere. . There is water for lunch, and bottled water will be provided during the afternoon river trekking. You can spend 600 pesos to zipline up the river, which saves you 40 minutes of walking. We used the zipline to reach the other side and walked for more than three hours. Those with poor physical strength are advised to use money tactics to buy a zipline. Overall, the scenery is beautiful and value for money. You can see sardines and turtles while snorkeling. There are various ways to play along the river and various diving. Everyone is equipped with a guide to support you throughout the whole process, and he is also a photographer to help record the records. everything
This experience was amazing. We got a driver from Cebu to Moalboal who waited for us the entire time. The tour includes island hopping, snorkelling , sardine run. We saw some turtles. The guides were nice. Next was Canyoneering with McRich Tours. Our guide Jason was beyond amazing. He was extremely helpful and gentle. This was so much fun jumping off cliffs/rocks. Highly recommend this tour. 100% worth it. The drive from Cebu City will be looooonnng so mentally prepare and bring snacks.
The full day tour includes return trip from Cebu city to Moalboal and Badian. The moalboal island tour was quite interesting, managed to experience school of sardinesss! The Badiancanyoneering tour was highly recommended! Get to experience the emerald blue paradisee! Special thanks to canyoneering guides Nicks and Jason! They are outgoing and kind to take photos & videos throughout the tour!
