Bohol Day Tour from Cebu

The Bohol Day Tour from Cebu is a full-day guided sightseeing trip that combines a fast ferry crossing with a vehicle and driver on Bohol island, covering the Chocolate Hills, the Tarsier Sanctuary and a Loboc River cruise in a single day out from Cebu.

Your day starts with pickup from your hotel in Cebu City or Mactan Island (pickup outside these areas can carry an extra charge), followed by a round-trip fast ferry crossing to Tagbilaran on Bohol. On arrival, a vehicle and driver take you to each stop on the island before the return ferry brings you back to Cebu in the evening.

The first major stop is the Chocolate Hills, a spread of more than a thousand cone-shaped mounds that turn brown in the dry season, giving the site its name. A viewing deck lets you look out over the hills, one of the most recognisable natural landscapes in the Philippines.

From there, the tour continues to a tarsier sanctuary, where the tiny, nocturnal Philippine tarsier, one of the smallest primates in the world, can be seen resting in the trees during the day. Sanctuary staff point out where to look and share basic facts about the species and the conservation work behind the sanctuary. The drive back toward Loboc also passes old stone churches and a stretch of man-made mahogany forest along the road.

The day ends with a cruise along the Loboc River on a floating restaurant boat. On tour options that include lunch, a buffet is served as you glide past the riverbank greenery, with live musicians and local performers on board adding music and dance to the ride, before the boat turns back and the group heads for the return ferry to Cebu.

Rayna's local team in Cebu arranges the pickup, ferry tickets and river cruise as one connected day, so the only thing left to plan is what time you want to be back at your hotel.
