Tour pela Zona Rural do Sul de Iloilo

The driver was punctual, picking me up at the hotel at 8 AM. Even though I was traveling alone, they sent a spacious van. First, we visited two dessert shops (Mama's Cookies offered free samples, and the chocolate shop had a guided tour, both without extra charges). Afterward, we headed to the countryside churches. The journey was smooth, and the churches were all very unique. For lunch, there was a 500P budget, which was more than enough to eat until full. The farm was also nice, with Bible stories depicted alongside many steps, which was very special. If you need to go to the airport on the way back, there's an additional 500P charge, so I asked the driver to drop me off at SM Iloilo to catch a ride. Overall, the itinerary was excellent, and the driver was easy to get along with and communicate with, even helping to take photos. Highly recommended!

Ang tour ay nagpadala ng email isang araw bago ang petsa ng tour na nagbibigay ng detalye ng Sasakyan at Driver. Pinayagan din nila kaming magdala ng aming mga bagahe at baguhin ang aming drop-off location sa loob ng City Center. Ang aming driver/guide/photographer, si Kuya Mark, ay napaka-accommodating, sinigurado niya na komportable at natulungan ang aking mga magulang na senior. Bagama't hindi kami Katoliko (salungat sa tour), siya ay napaka-pasensyoso sa aking mga magulang at inayos namin ang aming oras para sa bawat lokasyon kung kinakailangan. Nilaktawan namin ang ilang destinasyon at pumasok sa UP Visayas (magdala ng patunay ng School ID kung ikaw ay UP alumni), ang car pass ay 10 pesos. Ang opsyon sa tanghalian ay sa Tatoy's Manukan & Seafood o Breakthrough Restaurant. Pinili namin ang Tatoy's ngunit sa tingin ko mas maganda kung sa Breakthrough dahil hindi ito matatagpuan sa City Center (huling realization). Magdala ng sariling salamin sa araw at pera para sa Garin Farm Cart ride (4 na tiket = roundtrip) dahil hindi ito kasama sa Tour package. Ang Chocolate Drink sa Balay nga Bato ay napakasarap! Bilhin ang Mango Chewies at Cashew Crunchies sa Mama's Kitchen. Ito ang pinakamagandang produkto mula sa lahat ng libreng sample na aming natikman.

I booked this tour for my parents, aged 79 and 73. They had a great time exploring the Iloilo countryside with Mark from Southwest Tours. As senior citizens, the private tour was exactly what they needed, allowing them to visit the sites on the itinerary at their own pace. Lunch and snacks were included, which was an additional convenience. I recommend this voucher.

Garin farm is beautiful. Please be aware that there is a lot of walking and climbing. Although, there is an option to pay for a vehicle to go on top. The hot chocolate is also one of the best experience for me. I love the hot chocolate the most and the ancestral house was also very interesting. The entire trip was also seamless and the driver was the best.

Senior-friendly tour! If you're planning to visit Iloilo, book this tour! Everything was so convenient. Sir Alted shared lots of local tips. We didn’t strictly follow the itinerary, but he made sure it was something our parents would enjoy and appreciate. Thank you, Sir Alted, for the very insightful and thoughtful tour!

Kuya Anthony, ang aming driver, ay ang pinakamahusay. Siya ay napakarespeto at matulungin. Bagama't wala kaming tour guide para sa biyahe, sapat na siya, binigyan niya kami ng maikling impormasyon tungkol sa bawat tourist spot. Natapos kami nang medyo maaga kaya nagkaroon kami ng oras para maglibot din sa lungsod. Talagang nagustuhan namin ang tour namin kasama si Kuya Anthony. Salamat Kuya, labis na nasiyahan ang aking mga magulang, ginawa mo itong napakaespesyal para sa amin.

It's actually a good tour, but I think for the price we had to pay, the itinerary could use some more places to visit. The highlight of our trip is Garin Farm, then we only spent our 15 minutes on each church. The majority of the tour was also us en route to another church. Luckily, there was no traffic. Sir Mark is also a good driver and very punctual. It's also nice that they have set aside a budget for us for lunch in Breakthrough, which is a good resto as well.

Driver was on time and very professional, our car was new and very clean. On the tour itself, this cultural tour should not be missed. First stop was in Garin Farm, where you can get to climb a number of steps and visit stations along the way (we skipped this since we rode a golf cart). At the top, you'll enter a dark tunnel and at the end see the very white place completing the journey. As you go down, try their goat's milk ice cream at the restaurant. Several churches can be visited including one of four Baroque churches in the country - Miagao Church. Then you'll have some lunch at a restaurant by the bay (Do not miss eating talaba!) Last stop is at Balay na Bato where you can eat Molo (early reservation before the tour is needed), tour guide provides a tour and tells stories at each room ending in the dining room upstairs (where Illustrados used to dine). Here you will be served two shots of cocoa drink with biscuits. We ended the tour early because we didn't spend too long at each stop 😊. All in all, it was a great experience.

Super fun trip with my workmates. Our first out of town vaction after pandemic. Very very satisfied with our bookings in Klook and very happy with our tour guide Sir Jazz he is very SMART hehe. He really love Iloilo City and he shared with us so many things about this beautiful city. This is my second time in Iloilo City and I am still very in love in this City. Thank you klook for the hassle-free bookings and for coordinating with our tour guide in the island. Till next time!

An Iloilo cultural tour is a must to better understand this charming city with a long and rich history.
