As one reviewer noted on April 10, 2024:

Very much worth the early start!! - What a fun day! We were hesitant about the 4hr each way travel time from our hotel in Mactan but it was so worth it. A ‘local’ style breakfast along the way fuelled us for the wonderful experience which began with a scooter ride up the road, followed by a zip wire ride (worth the small extra fee) to the start of the canyon. Beautiful warm milky blue waters, plenty of (optional) cliff jumps, rope swings, waterfalls… It was lovely to see more of the island and experience some of the natural beauty that Cebu has to offer.
