Description

The 5D4N Cebu–Bohol Adventure Package Tour is a comprehensive and immersive journey designed to showcase the distinct character, natural beauty, and cultural depth of the Visayas region. This experience captures the essence of Cebu and Bohol through a combination of historical exploration, marine adventures, countryside sightseeing, natural wonders, and outdoor activities. Each day is curated to offer a balance of learning, discovery, adventure, and relaxation, making this program ideal for travelers seeking a complete understanding of what these islands have to offer.

The adventure begins in Cebu City, one of the country’s oldest urban centers and the birthplace of Christianity in the Philippines. Upon arrival at Mactan Cebu International Airport, guests are warmly welcomed and transported through the city’s historic core. This initial cultural immersion introduces visitors to Cebu’s layered history, which spans pre-colonial settlements, Spanish colonization, early trade routes, and centuries of religious tradition.

The heritage tour includes several of Cebu’s most iconic and historically significant landmarks. Magellan’s Cross, planted by early explorers in 1521, serves as a symbolic reminder of the island’s introduction to Christianity. Meanwhile, the Basilica Minore del Santo Niño, founded in 1565, contains the revered Santo Niño image, an artifact widely regarded as the oldest religious relic in the country. The tour continues to Fort San Pedro, a Spanish-era fortification that once served as a defensive structure and later as barracks and storage for colonial forces. Visitors also explore the National Museum of the Philippines – Cebu, where archaeological and ethnographic collections provide a deeper understanding of the island’s ancient settlements and cultural evolution. Other stops include the Heritage of Cebu Monument, a monumental sculpture depicting key moments in Cebu’s past, and the Yap–San Diego Ancestral House, one of the oldest residential homes in the Philippines, preserved with original furnishings and artifacts that reflect early Chinese–Filipino heritage. The day concludes with a scenic drive to the Taoist Temple, situated in an elevated part of the city, offering a peaceful environment and panoramic views of the urban landscape. Guests then retire to a comfortable Cebu City hotel to rest and prepare for the next day.

On the second day, the tour shifts from heritage to adventure, beginning with an early departure toward the southwestern coastline. The destination is Moalboal, a coastal town renowned for its thriving marine environment and world-class snorkeling sites. The first highlight of the day is the Sardines Run, a globally acclaimed natural spectacle where millions of sardines move in synchronized formations close to shore. Guests may snorkel among the sardines or observe them from the surface, witnessing the mesmerizing movement of the shimmering underwater formations. The tour continues to Turtle Point, an area frequented by green sea turtles that feed on the nearby seagrass beds. Visitors are guided on how to responsibly observe these gentle marine animals, ensuring minimal disturbance to their natural behavior. The morning’s activities conclude at the Coral Gardens, a vibrant reef system featuring a diverse array of corals and reef fish. This area provides excellent visibility and ideal conditions for both beginners and experienced snorkelers.

Following the marine excursion, guests are transported to the canyoneering site in either Badian or Alegria. Here, professional outdoor guides conduct a detailed briefing and distribute all necessary safety equipment, including helmets, life vests, and protective footwear. The canyoneering experience is an exhilarating combination of trekking, swimming, climbing, sliding, and optional cliff jumping along a river canyon carved into the limestone mountains. Participants pass through narrow gorges, natural rock formations, and turquoise-blue pools while surrounded by jungle vegetation and the sound of cascading water. Guides assist throughout the journey, ensuring safety and helping guests navigate each segment comfortably. The adventure culminates at Kawasan Falls, an internationally recognized natural attraction known for its multi-level cascades and clear blue basin. Here, guests may swim, relax, or simply enjoy the peaceful natural surroundings before being transferred to a coastal hotel in Oslob for the night.

The third day focuses on Oslob’s marine and inland attractions. Guests begin with the Whale Shark Watching activity, which follows strict environmental guidelines and protocols. A mandatory orientation is conducted before participants board small boats to observe the whale sharks in their feeding area. Guests may choose to snorkel for a closer encounter or remain on the boat for surface viewing. After the whale shark interaction, the tour proceeds to Tumalog Falls, a natural waterfall characterized by its fine, curtain-like cascades and tranquil atmosphere. Visitors may walk around the base of the falls, take photos, and enjoy the cool mountain water. The day’s final activity is a visit to Sumilon Island, home to a pristine sandbar that changes shape with the tides. Crystal-clear waters and powdery white sand create a serene environment for swimming, sunbathing, or simply enjoying the coastal scenery. In the afternoon, the group returns to Cebu City for another night of rest.

The fourth day brings guests to the neighboring island province of Bohol. A ferry ride from Cebu to Tagbilaran marks the beginning of a full-day countryside tour. The itinerary includes stops at several of Bohol’s most iconic cultural and natural attractions. The Blood Compact Shrine commemorates the first international treaty of friendship between Spaniards and native Filipinos, while Baclayon Church and Museum showcases centuries-old religious artifacts and coral stone architecture. Guests also visit a wildlife exhibit featuring native reptiles, followed by the Loboc River Cruise, where lunch is served aboard a floating restaurant accompanied by live cultural performances. A visit to the Tarsier Sanctuary provides an opportunity to observe the Philippine tarsier in a protected environment dedicated to conservation. Additional stops include the Bilar Man-Made Forest, a scenic stretch of evenly planted mahogany trees, and the world-famous Chocolate Hills, a geological formation consisting of more than a thousand cone-shaped hills that turn brown during the dry season. After the tour, guests return to Cebu City via ferry and stay overnight.

The fifth and final day highlights Cebu’s upland attractions, offering elevated views and peaceful natural surroundings. Guests explore hillside temples, mountain gardens, flower farms, and scenic viewpoints overlooking Cebu City, the ocean, and the distant islands. These upland sites provide excellent opportunities for photography, reflection, and relaxation. After completing the tour, guests are transferred to Mactan Cebu International Airport for their departure.

The 5D4N Cebu–Bohol Adventure Package Tour is designed for travelers who appreciate a balanced blend of culture, nature, wildlife, and adventure. Each activity is conducted with safety, comfort, and environmental responsibility in mind. This journey offers a memorable and meaningful exploration of two of the Philippines’ most beautiful and historically rich island destinations.
