Experiența de observare a rechinilor-balenă din Oslob în Cebu

We had an amazing whale shark watching experience in Oslob with my dad. We’re visiting from Canada and this trip meant a lot to us. Our guide Belle was amazing, very professional, organized, and kind throughout the day. My dad is 55 and had injured his ankle earlier in the trip, but the team was very patient and accommodating so he could still enjoy everything. We also stopped at Tumalog Falls and riding motorcycles to the falls and back was so fun. We had such a great time and made wonderful memories together. Highly recommend this tour.

Great logistics arrangements. Driver Paul was on time to pick us up from hotel at 3am and drove safely to Oslob taking only a 10-minute break during the 3 hour drive from Mactan Island to the whale shark watching site. Our tour guide Maxine was cheerful, helpful and took great photos for us. Swimming with whale sharks was a great experience. We felt safe and well taken care of all the way. After getting back on the beach Paul and Maxine took us to a nearby restaurant with shower facilities (think big pail of running tap water with a scoop). Got to do a quick shower before change into clean clothes before setting on our return to Mactan Island Cebu. We didn’t opt for Tumalog Falls. Thank you for great service!

영어를 못 하지만 현지인 기사님이 카톡으로 연락해주더군요 덕분에 카톡 번역으로 소통의 어려움은 없었어요. 온가족 11명이 예약하고 당일에 2명이 컨디션때문에 불참하긴했지만 9명 모두 즐거운 하루를 만들었어요. 사실 가족중 저만 3번째 고래상어 투어를 다녀왔는데 보통 1인당 10만원이 넘는 금액으로 다녀와봐서 너무 저렴한 금액에 살짝 긴장은 했지만 그긴장은 오래가지 않아서 없어졌어요. 랜터카 + 운전기사님 + 현지 고래상어투어에 필요한 비용 + 현지인 우리가족 전용헬퍼 + 투말록폭포관람 + 원하는 숙소드랍 까지 다가능함. 한국인 가이드가 없을뿐 그분들도 저처럼 영어못 하는 한국인을 많이 상대해본듯이 쉬운 영어단어위주로 아주 친절하게 응대해주니 영어 못해도 내가 원하는 모든것을 다 하고 숙소가기전에 마트에 들려서 장도보고 숙소까지 안전하게 복귀했네요. 사실 한국인 여행사에 견적도 받아봤지만 30%비용으로 다녀왔네요

once in a lifetime experience, waking up at 3am and 7hr round trip was definitely worth it. went during weekday, so wait for the boat wasn’t that bad (about 1hr when we arrived at 7:30am). very happy with the tour operator Island Trek Tours - my guide Em Em took very good care of me and was accompanying me every step of the way, she even looked after my personal belongings while I was on the boat. driver Joramie was very professional too, got us there and back safely and we had a great convo during our trip. visited Cuartel ruins on our way back

非常優質及高CP值，司機開車很穩，車輛乾淨，到達鯨鯊村後接待的導遊小姐，非常親切與熱心。我們一行12人，參加2/19的鯨鯊浮潛，宿霧當天來回，早上03：00出發，約莫06：00到達，排到200多號，過年真的人好多！但當天海象不好，無法下水，雖然有遺憾，但下次還是會再參加再去一次。因為已加價購買鯨鯊共遊，沒有下水，所以當場就退費了，每人1000披索，這點真的做的很好，讚！

I have to say, travelling from Mactan to Oslob and back in one day was seriously tiring — but totally worth it. I’m staying in Mactan and our pickup was at 3am, so I basically knocked out in the car and only woke up when we arrived. There was a local guide to help us figure out the queue, and when we got there around 6:30am, the line was already stretching all the way to the roadside. The guide said it was peak season and there was a chance we might not even see the whale sharks if our number got called too late. So we decided to go for a dive with one of the nearby shops to skip the queue — and honestly, no regrets at all. By the time we finished diving, it was only 9:30am. We grabbed breakfast and left around 10am. The journey back took about 4 hours because of traffic. We reached the hotel around 2pm, managed to get some sleep, and felt recharged for the next day.

体験日は6月17日に行いました。マクタン島のホテルまで往復していただきました。朝5時にホテルに迎えにきていただき、8時過ぎにオスロブに到着しました。車内で朝食を食べました。道中トイレに行きたくなった場合は運転手に言えば途中で止めてくれます。 安全性：運転手、オスロブから合流する案内兼荷物番をしてくれる方はきちんと荷物番をしてくれます。安心してジンベイザメと泳ぎに行けます。 体験：オスロブ到着後待機する暇もなくすぐに体験の注意事項の説明を読みすぐ会いに行くことができました。あまりにも早くテンポ良く行きすぎ、時間が余ったのでツマグロの滝にも連れて行ってもらいました。2人で250ペソでした。滝での案内写真動画撮影、最寄りから滝までのバイク移動も含まれてます。 設備：全ての体験が終わったら案内の方が待機する場所へ行きトイレと着替えを済ませて終わりです。ホテルからオスロブ間燃料代は含まれていない為ホテル到着時に渡します。2000ペソでした（ちょっと高いかも）あとホテルで水着を着用してオスロブに向かった方がいいです。

We had a great driver who got us there safely. Our young guide Princess was excellent, helpful, friendly and answered all our questions. Yes it’s a bit of a wait to get on the boat but well worth it! The Tumalog Falls were lovely too and worth paying 100 PHP for motorbike ride up the hill!

A once in a lifetime experience! Our kuya driver (Janilo) came by at 5 am and we got to Oslob around 9 am due to the traffic a few stopovers we needed. Recommend leaving a few hours earlier! When we got there, our tour guide (ate Cecille) sorted everything out for us that we didn’t need to line up. So thankful. She took care of our items while we swam with the Whale Sharks and also took so many good photos! The tour took us to side trips like the Tumalog falls and the Cuartel ruins which were all equally amazing. Overall, we felt super taken care of. 100% recommend this tour!

we were picked up from our resort in Moalboal (php1500 surcharge for pickup outside Cebu city) at 5am and reached Oslob close to 7am. we had 7 pax for a van and it was already quite full with everyone’s luggage. Upon reach Oslob, we were greeted w a staff who guided us throughout. We had to wait to see the sharks so meanwhile we were brought to their restaurant, or you could opt for a waterfall activity (at additional charge). Saw the sharks at around 11am eventually and it was amazing!
