Great.

The first activity, snorkeling with sea turtles and sardines swarms, starts at 4:30am at the hotel. 3 hour drive. The road is much rougher. After a short swim from the beach where I arrived, I immediately encountered a swarm of sea turtles and sardines. Some of the cute sea turtles were swimming and I was able to get up close and personal with them. Soon after, we moved to Canyoning. This was a truly wonderful experience. The river is clear and extremely beautiful, and is also a valley with lush limestone caves. The zip line is a short cut to the starting point, which is pleasant and interesting again. There is one friendly and cheerful guide per person who is always there to ensure your safety. They supported us on slippery areas with their hands and arms, and led us along stone and rock paths that were easy to walk. And most of all, they were full of a service spirit that entertained us, joking, singing and enlivening us. When I left my GOpro with my chief guide, he always took a lot of the best photos and videos. I also jumped two seven-metre jumps from rocks and a number of five-metre and two-metre jumps, which the teenagers really enjoyed. Lunch was also great for my exhausted body with delicious Filipino food (BBQ center). The service of the guide is perfect. Walking on land and rivers is long and requires a lot of physical strength, but it is a great activity for families.

Great guides who care about their tourists

The canyoneering is fun and has 4 or 5 jumps of about 5-7 feet. There is a swing at the end. We took a ride on a motorcycle to the start then you hike down towards the water fall. The trail and the water were clean and my guide was very good at taking photos and videos with my GoPro. I booked this trip with my wife the day after SCUBA diving. Unfortunately, my wife blew her eardrum and could not go in the water. Mae found my wife a doctor nearby and took her 1 hour to Moalboal because the line was too long. That doctor gave us an ENT appointment at 7pm and Mae found us a ride to the ENT to get a prescription for ear drops. The guides did a great job finding us a doctor and really took care of my wife. We gave them a good tip, but I am very grateful for how well they took care of my wife’s injury in the moment she needed it most. Great job!

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review! So glad to hear that you enjoyed the activities and you got the nice photos to remember the special day by. It is a shame that your wife could not join you in the water, but we are relieved that Mae managed to find her a good doctor! She is honestly the best! Wishing her a speedy recovery, and looking forward to seeing you both again. Hopefully, your wife can enjoy the activities to the fullest next time.

Awesome tour!

We had a very great time doing this tour. Our tour guide Danny was so kind and helpful and made sure we do not miss out on any fun. We were picked up at our hotel on time and were safely taken to all the spots. The sardine run, swimming with turtles and canyoneering was all too good. Me and my cousins we really had so much fun. Also, the food was traditional Filipino food which was really good. Highly recommended and would surely do it again!

Great experience!

We had a great tour with our guide Mae ~ she was very sweet and helpful. Moal boat we had a great snorkelling guide and he helped us to get close to sea life. Our canyoneering guides Ferdy and Vincent were excellent, and paid particular attention to the kinds of photos we wanted of the scenery and captured heaps of these for us as well as many photos of us. Would recommend to anyone who likes adventure and water.

Once in a lifetime experience.

Awesome experience. We were picked up at 4:30am from Cebu city arriving for snorkeling at 7:30am. Typhoon has recently happened so water was quite dirty with rubbish around unfortunately. We were still able to see the turtles and sardine schools though which was great. We arrived for Canyoneering at 8:30am and road a motorbike to the top of Kawasan Falls where we briefed and made our way to the start of the canyon. You can either zip line for additional price or walk to the start, we chose to walk as the view was amazing along the walking trail it took us roughly 20min of walking. We had 1 guide each, 1 had my iPhone the entire time and got a priceless amount of photos and videos that we will have for a life time while the other guide was there at every step to help my wife. We also had the nicest food we have eaten so far in the Phillipines overlooking the waterfall. We tipped them both 1000php each and wish we brought more for them as they were truly amazing. We arrived back at our hotel after at 4:00pm. The 2 people that picked us up for the trip and dropped us off were also amazing and very funny. Would highly recommend this and wish we could do it all again. Because of the typhoon the falls were shut for 3 days and the day we went was the first it reopened so we were extremely lucky. Thanks Fun Group Cebu.

It was very satisfying.

It was a lot of fun. It was good to go to Kawasan Falls too! It was my first time canyoning, but I was relieved to see the guides supporting me so well. I was also satisfied with the bike ride to Kawasan Falls, which I can't experience in Japan! It was early in the morning, but other than that, it was a great experience and memory!

It was fun.

It was my first time snorkeling and canyoning together, but I enjoyed both thanks to the hilarious guides! You'll be in the air-conditioned car soaking wet until you move to the post-snorkeling waterfall, so you'll need a bath towel to keep you warm. Car can sleep comfortable because the seat can be overturned.
