Passeios por Pontod Island

This package includes lunch, with a simple breakfast of bread and Sprite. I especially loved the barbecue on the boat. I booked this particular boat after seeing a blogger's barbecue, saving me the trouble of asking around once I got there. The communication before departure was smooth, and the guide on the day was excellent. They started grilling on the way to Balicasag, hahaha, it smelled so good! Personally, my boyfriend and I both love Filipino grilled pork and chicken. There weren't many people on our boat that day, only 6, so the experience was great, though sometimes it might be more crowded, as I've seen larger boats too. We didn't rent a GoPro, but the guide recorded videos and took photos for us for free. These were taken during our second dive after returning from Balicasag. I can't swim, but I fell in love with snorkeling and even fed the fish. Yes, we saw many dolphins while chasing them, lots of sea turtles, and even sea snakes. The experience was fantastic because I love barbecue so much, I spontaneously decided to write a good review. It seems many local tours don't include lunch, so it's good to confirm that in advance. For your reference.

Although coastal conditions were moderate due to the enhanced Southwest Monsoon and the effects of Tropical Storm Domeng, our island-hopping tour was safe and enjoyable. Our heartfelt thanks to our boatmen and guides, Eric and Gabriel, for their kindness, patience, and exceptional assistance to our PWD daughter during boarding and disembarking. We also thank the people of Balicasag Island for their help and support—a true display of Filipino Bayanihan. The return trip to Panglao was challenging due to rough seas, but Eric and Gabriel remained calm, professional, and focused on our safety. Their skill and dedication gave us confidence throughout the journey. They even apologized for our delayed return, though the weather was beyond anyone's control. Seeing dolphins in their natural habitat was a wonderful bonus. The food at Balicasag was excellent, our snorkeling guides captured great memories, and swimming at the Virgin Island sandbar was a highlight. Highly recommended!

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.

1. The fireflies are beautiful and gather on one tree, looking very much like stars. 2. The waiting time is quite long, so it's recommended to go early. You probably don't need to go to Southern Park (we went, but still did it for the itinerary; later we realized we could have skipped Southern Park and gone to see the fireflies earlier, which would have saved us from waiting so long—about an hour. The people in front have to finish before it's your turn. However, there are banana boats and small boats; the banana boat seems to be for individuals to paddle themselves. I'm not sure if you can choose that option). 3. The reason for the low cost-performance ratio is that it cost over 3,000 NTD for three people. It feels like chartering a car ourselves wouldn't be this expensive (because KLOOK also provides a chartered car, one car for three people). And it seems there are similar, cheaper local tours. However, because we were in a foreign place and worried about being scammed, using KLOOK felt safer, and the experience should be better. But if I had to choose again next time, I would probably try booking a local tour, as the location should be the same! And it would save a lot of money!

Underrated but I highly recommend this activity! Kudos to our guide, Ate Alyssa, the two boatmen, and to the tuktuk driver that brought us to the port. Everyone was so nice and I thoroughly enjoyed this activity! The snacks were great and we had the whole island to ourselves! Will definitely book this again when I come back to Bohol!

I love the aesthetics that the Jeep itself has provided. Our tour guide and driver were very good at helping us learn more about Bohol and the places we visited. The itinerary was so well planned that each place stood out, and we made memories there. I hope for more bookings.

My flight was delayed for a few hours and we weren't able to arrive right on schedule, but they were still able to accommodate us. They even offered to pick me up at the airport! Kudos for going the extra mile 🫶

Excellent service. From the shuttle service to the tour, we were well taken care of. There was plenty of food available during lunchtime. Since I was a joiner and alone, I barely needed to use the tripod I brought because the guides themselves would take pictures of me. It was also memorable for me since it was my first time island hopping + it was my birthday, hahaha (just sharing). Aside from that, my companions were super kind, especially the seniors, and also the crew and the tour guide (Tony?). Thank you and until next time.
