Magical - We had a wonderful time. It was our first visit to Bohol so we did not know what to expect. Our driver Charles was on time and the vehicle was comfortable. This was a lovely time of year because the weather was cool and breezy. There are 276 stairs at the chocolate hills so be advised it’s a healthy climb, also the hills are not chocolate during this time of year but lovely non the less. The Tarsiers were amazing little creatures and we loved seeing them with their eyes opened. The Riverboat cruise was such a treat. The food was excellent and the crew was most accommodating. There was also a show of traditional Filipino dance and a group of singers on board. We would highly recommend it.

Fantastic lunch at floating restaurant - It was really good that the agency provided a private car for the 2 of us with direct pickup at the resort. We toured the monument and church in the morning, and we quite like the butterfly farm. The lunch on the floating restaurant is actually the highlight of the trip and we absolutely enjoyed the lunch with the fabulous view of the river. After lunch, we took a few pictures at the Manmade Forest and visited the Tarsier Conservation Area. The tarsiers are mostly sleeping and you may want to tip the staff there to get closeup pictures of them. We went to the Chocolate Hills in the late afternoon which was crowded with people as there was only one viewing platform. The view was quite nice though. Overall speaking the driver cum tour guide was nice and friendly, and we visited most of the tourist spots on Bohol Island. Would be nice if the tour can include other less-visited spots like Firefly caves.

Great car to tour the sites - We had this tour through the hotel. I say great car to tour the site because you are paying for a car with a driver. Although the driver know where the sites are, they are not tour guides. I have to constantly ask questions about the sites to know more about it or Google it or else they'll just drop you off, and you're on your own. Also, be ready to pay all the entrance fees as it is not part of the tour. Other than that, the sites are great to visit. Just make sure to do your research about the sites you're touring to fully appreciate the history or to know about the place you're visiting.

Better to discuss and book on site - The day was interesting overall. The entire description was completely different. We were at the hills right at the beginning. The sunset would have been nice, but what the heck. The church was unfortunately closed. Nobody can do anything about that when it comes to renovations, but it would have been nice if the organizer had informed us in advance. We didn't go to Seville or the suspension bridge and it wasn't on the driver's plan. I wouldn't book through TripAdvisor again. Unfortunately, something like that happened to us on 2 out of 3 excursions this holiday. As nice as the people (guide/driver) are, it's annoying in the end.

Bad! Really bad! - This expensive “tour” was very disappointing and very expensive to say the least. The “tour guide” was only there to drive us around like a maniac with no regard to our safety. He barely spoke to us and did not explain anything through the whole tour. We cut the “tour” short because we were so disappointed with everything that happened in a span of 4 hours. I would not recommend this “tour” at all. I would rather hire a driver, which what he did throughout the experience.
