Canyoneering Experience in Kawasan Falls with Lunch - Three to four hours along the Matutinao River

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 440 reviews · from $55Our pick

Review of Cebu’s Kawasan Falls canyoneering tour, with jumps, river swimming, guides, lunch, transfers, costs, tips, and practical advice.

“Canyoneering and waterfall jumping was a blast! Destiny (I think I spelled it wrong) was such a fun and helpful guide. All the guys were truly great, made it so much fun, and took great videos for us. I would highly recommend this excursion! We hiked around 6 miles, after zip lining down to the start of the canyon. You do need a certain level of physical fitness, however you do need some agility and there are some mandatory jumps.”

Cebu: Oslob Whale Sharks, Tumalog Falls & Sardine Snorkeling

2.Oslob Whale Sharks, Tumalog Falls & Sardine Snorkeling

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 343 reviews · 10 hours · from $106

Review of Cebu’s Oslob whale sharks, Tumalog Falls, and Moalboal sardine snorkeling, with costs, timing, tips, and honest drawbacks.

“This trip was amazing, the guides were enthusiastic and informative. The divers never left our side, everything felt safe. Seeing the whale sharks, fish and turtles was incredible, I commend the guides who helped us capture the best moments with the GoPro (you can rent it on site). The meals included are average. I recommend carrying snacks, even your own breakfast. Once you reach the snorkeling area, lunch will be offered, however you can buy some food from a fast food restaurant there.”

After calling and messaging the tour operator we finally departed at 7:30 and the traffic was horrible. We did 4 hours on the way and 4 hours back to hotel.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 39 reviews · from $150

Swim with turtles and sardines, then canyon through Kawasan Falls on a private 15-hour Cebu adventure with lunch and transfers.

“Very friendly driver, you can customize the travel to your liking. They picked us up in a hotel in Oslob and dropped us off in Cebu city so it was the best way to see the island. The snorkeling was slightly deceiving as there is nothing much to see in the first spot they take us and you are not provided with fins.”
