Da Cebu: Island Hopping in 3 isole con pranzo barbecue

Our 3-island hopping tour with Cebu FUN Group was incredible! The itinerary was exactly as advertised, but the beauty of the islands and crystal-clear water far exceeded our expectations. We were fortunate to have sunny skies and warm water all day, making this half-day trip feel absolutely perfect. The snorkeling was fantastic—we saw beautiful marine life and even spotted a barracuda! Our guide, Kenneth, was phenomenal, sharing fascinating history, local insights, and plenty of laughs throughout the tour. The entire boat crew was outstanding. A special shout-out to one of the boat hands who literally dove into the water after I accidentally dropped my wallet off the pier. He recovered it with all of my IDs and cards inside, and I can’t thank him enough! Overall, this was a beautiful, relaxing, and adventurous experience with amazing people—both above and below the water. Highly recommend Cebu FUN group!

I couldn’t have picked a better day for this tour (Thank you God 🙏🏽💗). Even though it’s rainy season in the Philippines, we were blessed with gorgeous sunshine and perfect weather for swimming in the ocean and snorkeling. As it turned out, I was the only guest that day, so I unexpectedly had a private island-hopping experience! It felt so special. Huge thanks to the boat crew of Cebu 382, my guide Warren, for making the day unforgettable. I’m from Arlington Heights, Illinois, (a suburb 30 min from Chicago) so snorkeling in open ocean water was definitely outside my comfort zone. I’m not a strong swimmer, and at first I was nervous, even with a life jacket on. One of the boatmen noticed and actually got into the water with me, encouraging me until I felt confident enough to snorkel on my own. That simple act of kindness meant more than he probably realizes. By the end, I was swimming alongside beautiful tropical fish and didn’t want to get out of the water. The islands were stunning, the barbecue lunch was delicious, and the fish were even more colorful than the photos online can capture. The pictures in the reviews don’t do this experience justice, you have to see it for yourself 🐟🐠🐟🐠🐟🐠 Warren also took incredible photos throughout the day, allowing me to be fully present instead of worrying about capturing every moment. Those memories are something I’ll always treasure. This trip was especially meaningful because I chose to celebrate the 4th of July here in the Philippines instead of back home. It felt like celebrating a different kind of freedom, the freedom to travel, to try something that scared me, and to experience the kindness of people halfway around the world. Thank you, Warren and everyone at Cebu 382, for making this one of the highlights of my trip. I want to come back! “sea you soon!” lol

The best thing we have done in a long time. Our guide was great and really looked after us. We are novice at snorkeling and not strong swimmers. But our guide and boat hands really made us feel safe. Saw so many fish and absolutely loved it. Lunch was delicious too.

We couldn't be happier with our island-hopping experience. It was just the two of us, our guide, and the boat crew for the entire trip. From the amazing lunch of seafood caught and presented right in front of us (I don't think it's possible to eat fresher seafood), to the expansive, beautiful views, to swimming through schools of exotic fish- all the boxes were checked: romantic, relaxing, delicious, therapeutic. You can't go wrong with this business, and our guide was the best one I have had on any of these trips.

We had such an amazing time on this island hopping tour and we would recommend it to anyone staying in Mactan. Kenn was our tour guide and he made the whole experience even better. He was communicative, funny, and very informative, so we always knew what was happening and felt comfortable the entire day. — We felt secure from start to finish, whether we were on the boat, snorkeling, or exploring the islands. — Nalusuan Island was our favorite spot. The water was crystal clear and full of fish, and we loved that we got to spend the most time there. The timing at each island felt perfect. Nothing felt rushed and nothing dragged on. — Lunch was delicious. We had grilled skewers, rice, and fresh mangoes, and everything tasted amazing after swimming. — If we had to mention one small con, it would be the loud boat. It is pretty common around Mactan, so it did not take away from our experience or change our rating. Everything else was so good that it barely mattered. — Another big perk was that the tour left right from Mactan, which made it very convenient from our resort. — Overall, we had a blast and would definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun and memorable island adventure.

How enjoyable! Everything was just as described, efficient, and on time. We swam and snorkeled in clear waters, fed a bazillion colorful tropical fishes, and saw three islands with beautiful white sand and tropical waters. Our Guide, Richel and the crew on the boat were fun and professional. The lunch cooked and served on board the boat was absolutely delicious.We highly recommend this tour.

We were picked up exactly on time from our hotel and the day was exactly as described, with snorkels and masks, water, lunch and towels provided. The first stop was quite choppy but they provided life jackets if required. The next two stops were very calm with plenty of fish (especially when they’re fed!). They sell cold drinks on board and you’re able to hire water activities after the boat tour but there’s no hard sell. Our guide Farrah confirmed the tips are shared between the guide and the team on the boat as they did an excellent job of keeping an eye on us in the water, feeding us and helping us at any point.

Elvira is an excellent guide, full of life and very knowledgeable and patient. It was a pleasure to be on this trip.

Our Cebu 3-Island Hopping tour with barbecue lunch was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The entire day was well organized, relaxing, and filled with beautiful scenery and great hospitality. A special thank you to our tour guide, Elvira, who did a fantastic job throughout the trip. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying the experience. Her energy and professionalism really made the tour memorable, and she took great care of our group during each stop along the islands. I would also like to recognize Francisco, our driver, who was punctual, professional, and ensured our transportation was smooth and safe the entire day. His reliability and positive attitude helped make the experience even more enjoyable. The island hopping itself was incredible—clear waters, beautiful beaches, and a delicious barbecue lunch that was the perfect break in the middle of the day. Everything was well coordinated, allowing us to simply relax and enjoy the surroundings. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and I highly recommend the Cebu 3-Island Hopping tour to anyone visiting the area. Many thanks again to Elvira and Francisco for their excellent service and for making the day so enjoyable.

This was a great first day tour because it’s simple, relaxing and you see plenty of beautiful fish while snorkelling. It’s good to do before some of the bigger full day tours in other areas. The BBQ lunch prepared on the boat was a nice local touch
