Jason our guide did everything possible to make sure we had a rememberable trip. He carried all our stuff and took all our videos and pictures on our go pro and phone. Nothing was too much for him at all. He was very friendly and made sure me and my partner felt safe at all times, even when I didn’t want to do the big jumps haha! Would definitely recommend this company and especially their guide Jason.

Swimming with the whale sharks was better than my already high expectations! Due to flooding the days before we were unable to do the canyoneering but we’re taken to snorkel and see the sardines and turtles instead. Our driver Jave was the best, super friendly and accommodating. Would highly recommend if visiting Cebu

We had a private tour for two which included a personal driver who was gigantic, a private guide at osmena peak and a private guide at kawasawen falls. Everything was just perfect

Amazing day from start to finish. We were picked up at our hotel and driven to the whale sharks, then to the mountains for canyoneering. It’s a long day, but worth it.

I think it's a fun tour where you can enjoy an extraordinary experience!
