Bohol Countryside Highlights Tour

  • Meet and greet your Bohol tour guide at Tagbilaran Sea Port, Panglao Airport, or any Tagbilaran or Panglao hotel and begin the tour.

  • Marvel at Baclayon Church and Museum.

  • Learn about the Bohol Blood Compact. The Sandugo was a blood compact performed on the island of Bohol in the Philippines between the Spanish explorer Miguel López de Legazpi and Datu Sikatuna, the chieftain of Bohol, on March 16, 1565, to seal their friendship as part of tribal tradition.

  • Head to the Bohol Python and Wildlife Park. Home to over 25 different species of exotic animals, the Loboc Wildlife & Nature Park is a must-visit place in Loboc.

  • Continue to the Sevilla Bamboo Hanging Bridge, now in its new location in Baclayon. Visit the Bohol python, see how they are being cared for, and have a photo taken with the python by your side. Be entertained by Marimar, the ultimate performer, as she grants guests' requests for a show.

  • Proceed to the Bilar Man-Made Forest, also known as the Mahogany Man-Made Forest.

  • Pay a visit to the Bohol tarsier, the smallest living primate, as they are kept and cared for at a local sanctuary in the Tarsier Conservation Area.

  • Take a deep breath and enjoy the relaxing view on the Loboc River Cruise and Floating Restaurant for an hour-long boat ride while having lunch on the Loboc River. This is one activity that should not be missed while in Bohol.

  • Feast on sumptuous Filipino cuisine cooked and served the Boholanos way. Be sure to arrive with an empty stomach, as you are just halfway through the tour.

  • Travel up the road to reach the famous Chocolate Hills. There are about 1,260 hills scattered across the towns of Carmen, Sagbayan, and Batuan, though they are mostly seen in Carmen. Enjoy the majestic scenery from the viewing deck and hear the tales of how they were formed.

  • Drop-off at Tagbilaran Sea Port, Panglao Airport, or any Tagbilaran or Panglao hotel.
