Description

Discover the beauty of Cebu on a tour of the island's top attractions. Swim with whale sharks, visit Sumilon Island, and explore the Inambakan Falls.
Explore the best of Cebu with a private tour that includes a visit to the Oslob Whale Shark Sanctuary, Sumilon Island, Tumalog Falls, Inambakan Falls, Moalboal, Kawasan Falls, Canyoneering, Aguinid Falls, Ka Treasure Water Terraces Mountain Resort, and a city tour.

Start your day with a pick-up from your hotel in Cebu City or Mactan Island. Head to Oslob and swim with the whale sharks. Then, visit Sumilon Island, a small 24-hectare coral island located off the tip of Cebu.

Next visit is Inambakan Falls, a majestic gem tucked away in the town of Ginatilan in the southwestern part of Cebu. Named after the Cebuano word 'ambak,' which means 'to jump,' Inambakan Falls stands at a towering height of 100 feet, and its cascade creates a beautiful, azure pool of water.

Next, head to Moalboal, a paradise for snorkeling enthusiasts. Step out of your resort, walk a couple of meters and explore one of the most spectacular coral reefs in the Philippines.

The coral reef is located at a 10 km long 40-60 meter deep steep wall on the peninsula of Moalboal. There you can observe all kind of big and small fish. A huge variety of soft and hard corals are abundant. With a little bit luck and timing, you can even encounter Whale Sharks. Sea turtle you can almost watch every time you get into the water.

One of the greatest attractions is the school of sardines at Panagsama beach, which can be constantly observed for the last 5 years. Besides exploring the house reef, Planet Action can organize a snorkeling day tour by motor banka (boat with outrigger) and can even go to further snorkeling places like Pescador Island, Tongo point, Kasai wall, and White Beach.

After snorkeling, visit the Kawasan Falls, a three-stage cascade of clear turquoise water from mountain springs located in the jungles of the Cebu island. The falls are part of the Kawasan River in Badian, Cebu, in the Philippines.

Canyoneering at the Kawasan waterfalls is one of Cebu's top attractions. Canyoneering (or canyoning) is a popular outdoor trek that involves traveling down creeks or streams within a canyon through a variety of means including walking, jumping, swimming, and climbing.

Visit Aguinid Falls, a five-level waterfall located in Barangay Tangbo, Samboan, on the southwest coast of the island of Cebu. Then, head to Ka Treasure Water Terraces Mountain Resort, known for its natural water terraces formation that resembles Abra's Kaparkan Falls.

With its picturesque tiered pools backdropped by nature's greenery, one could not help but say their oohhs and aahhs. Guests are given two booking options: day use or overnight stay.

Finally, take a city tour of Cebu and see the Buwakan ni Alejandra, Sirao Garden, Temple of Leah, Tops, Little Kyotto, Magellans Cross, and many more. After a full day of adventure, return to your hotel in Cebu City or Mactan Island.
