Excursão Privada de Meio Dia pelas Ilhas de Panglao

It was a great experience for us. We saw dolphins, and the best part was snorkeling: we saw a variety of fish and the only turtle we encountered. We had a very good guide underwater taking GoPro photos. Virgin Island was not impressive because there is private property that does not allow anyone to walk on the beachfront. The overall experience was excellent, and we enjoyed the tour.

boat condition: very good scenic views on board: Amazing guide: good safety: very good itinerary: wonderful and highly recommended

Super worth it! Our van met us at McDonald's Alona to take us to the port along with other tourists. You'll have your own private boat for island hopping, and you get to decide where you'd like to stay longer. First stop is dolphin sightseeing. At first, of course, I hoped we'd see dolphins, so I asked our guide, Ate, from the start what the chances were. She didn't make any assurances but mentioned that hopefully they would show up as they are considered wild animals. Lo and behold, we saw a lot of them in different places afterwards; they were like playing with all of us! It was breathtaking!!! Next stop was Balicasag, where we met another Kuya (Anthony) who took us to the snorkeling area. You could see how excited he was to show us the Pawikan (sea turtle) every time one was spotted. The third stop was Virgin Island (another beautiful island to behold). It has a white sandbar, but since it was high tide when we got there, we decided to just stay on the island where our children could enjoy swimming. 💗

It was truly a wonderful experience. Tay Oppng picked us up at exactly 6am. Kuya Erwin, our guide and boatman was also very helpful and reliable. We were very lucky to see the dolphins that day. Then we went snorkeling to see the sea turtle and the many schools of fish. After snorkeling, we ate at the restaurant nearby which we paid extra coz it ain’t part of the package. We went home soon after. the trip lasted for a little over 4 hours.

No dolphin when we had our trip so we went to Balicasag Island and take some photos and went back to the pick up area.

Unfortunately there's no dolphin during our tour but we enjoyed snorkeling in the Balicasag Island. The tour guide is nice.

第一次潛水，很多的擔心～一早司機來接，約5:30，但準時到門口還沒看到人，正在想請飯店人員幫忙打電話時，就出現了，後來到現場等很多團的都到，才陸續分配出發，出海後蠻多驚喜，雖然海豚沒有很多，船非常多😅。後來上島換一個教練，我們一行6個人，但長輩跟一個青少年沒有要下水，只有4個參與活動，強烈建議一定要租Go-pro,為美好回憶加添印象，教練很會帶，浮潛看魚群拍照片跟影片都很厲害，拉著船跟著海龜讓我們不敢下水的也看到海龜（因為比較深）很不錯的行程，超級推薦

一早行程雖然有點累，但整趟下來還算不錯，希望處女島時間可以再長一點，只有半小時有點不夠，每個景點都幾乎要排隊

I recently went on a private Panglao Island Hopping and Dolphin Watching Tour in Bohol, and it was an incredible experience! The highlights were not only seeing the dolphins in their natural habitat—so majestic and playful—but also the amazing snorkeling at Balicasag Island. We started early in the morning, with Rayan, the boat driver, making sure we had the best dolphin sightings from our private boat. Afterward, we went snorkeling on a small boat with Stephen, who was absolutely amazing and tireless in finding sea turtles for us. We saw so many turtles, and the best part was snorkeling in peaceful spots, far from the crowds. The water was crystal clear, and the marine life was stunning. Although the Virgin Islands were closed to the public, we appreciated the honesty and professionalism of the crew, as they refunded us the entrance fee for the Virgin Islands without us even asking. I was also really impressed by the punctuality and professionalism of everyone involved, from the organization to the boat crew. Everything ran smoothly and exceeded expectations. The tour was well-organized, and both Rayan and Stephen made the experience safe, fun, and truly unforgettable. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Bohol—it’s a perfect adventure with beautiful views, incredible marine life, and fantastic guides!

Thanks to the professional captain Robert we were able to spot the dolphins for a minute and do a video. As there are lots of boats around, the dolphins escape the area as soon as they hear the engines. Some boats simply don't care and are driving after the dolphins which is sad. The tour was good especially with the snorkeling. It would have been great if we were earlier than at 07.30 at the dolphin viewing because they prefer to swim early in the morning. Boat condition: it's a noisy drive due to the engine noise, the boat is a wooden one, but safe as the captain was skillful. It can be tricky if there are waves. Itinerary: nice though on Balicasag locals approach a lot and try to sell their goods or offer to order lunch. The transfer was nicely organized, our snorkeling guide Jacob was a great and helpful instructor.
