     It's impossible to catch them. If you crash into this flock, they fly in all directions to reunite somewhere behind you. And if you lie on the water and do not move, they take in a ring: a strange, gray, living cloud. It's a mind-blowing experience.

   • Visit to the Chocolate Hills.

   • The Chocolate Hills are amazing landscapes created by nature. The Chocolate Hills are the most famous landmark of Bohol and they are even featured on the provincial coat of arms and flag. Wherever you look for information about Bohol, the first thing you will be advised to see is the chocolate hills. What are these hills? They are cone-shaped, their height varies from 30 to 120 meters, their number reaches from 1260 to 1776 hills on 50 square meters and in the dry season the grass on them burns out and becomes brown. All these factors together allow these hills to be called chocolate hills. Scientists have not yet agreed on the origin of the chocolate hills in Bohol. The chocolate hills are located in a flat terrain, which is even more surprising to humans. Nevertheless, scientists have put forward several versions of the origin of such a miracle of nature: the first - chocolate hills were formed as a result of volcanic activity, the second - once this place was the bottom of the ocean with lime deposits, and after many years, when the water level in the sea decreased, they appeared on land, and the third - due to the impact of rainwater and soil erosion was the rise of coral deposits. Although the versions of scientists are quite different, but they all agree on the main idea - chocolate hills are not the creation of human hands, because to create such a landmark, people would have taken much more effort and time than, for example, to create the pyramids in Egypt.

     • ATV ride around the chocolate hills (60 min.).

   • Embark on a thrilling adventure with an ATV ride around the famous Chocolate Hills of Bohol Island.

     Bohol Island, known for its breathtaking scenery and distinctive geological formations, is home to one of the Philippines' most unique natural wonders - the stunning Chocolate Hills.

     The remarkable Chocolate Hills are hundreds of symmetrical, gentle hills that turn a rich chocolate brown color during the dry season. Recognized as the third National Geographic monument in the Philippines, this magnificent site is also rated as a potential UNESCO World Heritage Site.

     While some tours will only take you to the observation deck, this ATV adventure offers exclusive access to the trails that wind around the foothills, allowing you to appreciate its beauty up close and from a unique perspective.

     This thrilling experience includes navigating a variety of terrain and scenic trails. With a full set of safety gear and detailed instruction, you can enjoy the ride with confidence and peace of mind.

     Your fun begins with a warm welcome from your friendly and knowledgeable guide in the ATV center waiting area. Once you are familiarized with your assigned ATV unit, you will be ready to embark on a thrilling ride through the majestic Chocolate Hills of Bohol Island.

     The sweeping views of these impressive hills with their unique conical shapes stretching all the way to the horizon will take your breath away. Feel the gust of wind on your face and the excitement of discovering hidden places only accessible by ATV.

     • Visit to the Tarsier Sanctuary.

   • It is quite problematic to see these little ones in the wild. They value privacy and do not like publicity. One of the favorite activities of tarsiers is playing “hide and seek”. High up in a tree, in dense shade, among the leaves, it is extremely difficult to spot, much less see in detail

     • Visiting the Mahagany Forest.

   • Mahagany Forest is the first and only man-made forest in the Philippines. It mainly consists of mahogany trees about 2 kilometers long, densely spread in Bilar and Loboc towns. The terrain on both sides of the road goes up; and I don't know how high. What you see is only a redwood tree that looks like thousands of sentries standing upright and guarding the road. No other vegetation grows among the redwoods. You can only see the brown trunks stretching out of the ground and the green canopy above them. And that is what makes them so attractive! It's beautiful to look at the roots of the trees as they protrude from the ground and creep over boulders and the contours of the earth, even reaching the side of the road. Looking at them gives you shivers. Like the tentacles of a giant octopus, the roots seem to reach out and grab careless passersby, just as they did in the movie Lord of the Rings.

     • Zip-line over the Loboc River (Loboc Eco-Tourism Adventure Park).

   • Who likes to tickle their nerves, experience new emotions and get adrenaline! I would like to note that the flight is not just like in a rope park between trees - but over the trees and even over the river! The height of the zip line flight is about 100 meters.

     • Raft-restaurant rafting on the Loboc River Cruise and lunch during the rafting - buffet national cuisine (group tour by boat).

   • Loboc River is one of the main rivers on the island. It is picturesque and its waters are calm, which is why there are floating raft-restaurant cruises. The cruise starts with a hearty lunch and then the float continues for about one hour.

     There will be live music during the float. Songs may be boholano, jazz or blues. Enjoy traditional dancing and singing from performers on the riverbank. Be sure to wave to passengers from other floating restaurants as they pass in the other direction.

     Our floating restaurant will follow the winding river green. Cruise past nipa palms, coconut palms, banana plants and shrubs. The water currents are calm until we reach the small Busay waterfall at the end of the trip.
