Cebu: Oslob Whale Sharks, Tumalog Falls & Sardine Snorkeling - The 2:00 AM pickup and the long southern drive

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

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.”

Overall, we enjoyed the activities and our tour guide, Jowen was very helpful and friendly. We got to learn more about Cebu and the cultures of Philippines. All the best for your future endeavours too!”
