It was a satisfying tour!

It was a great experience! Daddy guided us, and he told us not only about the history but also about the people of Cebu and another tourist destination we visited the day before. The tour vehicle was large, and they gave us some water and drove us back to our designated destination. The people on board were also nice and relaxed. I want to see Daddy again♪

Great Tour

This is a wonderful introduction to Cebu. While the sights were great, the van ride up the mountain to Sirao Gardens was also one of the best parts. A mixture of breathtaking scenery and a view into Filipino life. Great experience.

Operator response

Boring and a long car ride.

Unfortunately there really isn't much to see on the Cebu city tour. Our guide and driver were very nice and informative, but all in all it was a lot of driving in a van with very little to see or care about remembering.

Operator response

Thank you for your honest review. We are sorry to hear that our tour itinerary did not meet your expectations. We’re glad to know that you found the guide and driver kind and informative. Your feedback is valuable and helps us continue improving the experience we offer.

Family learned so much...

Family learned so much about Cebu history and culture of the Visayan people. Sirao Garden had an amazing mood lifting effect, Magellan’s Cross, Basilica de Santo Niño and Fort San Pedro offered ample glimpse to Philippines’ past. Air conditioned van for travel accompanied by warm, avid guides Kenn and Sir Dan made the tour a must see.

Operator response

Thank you for joining our city tour! We’re very happy to hear that you enjoyed the history, culture, the city, and the natural spots, and experienced the charm of Cebu. We have many other activities as well, so we hope you’ll join us again sometime!

Cebu City Tour

Best tour to see Cebu City! Danny was our tour guide & he was so kind, funny, & knowledgeable. Glen was our driver & he ensured we made it to each destination safely. Danny taught us so much history about each site we visited & did not rush our group at each visit. He also speaks multiple languages & was accommodating to everyone in our group. Would highly recommend!

Tour Good but not Garden

The garden was far away & not worth it. Very amateurish & in disrepair. However, the rest of the tour was good. Our guide, Elvira, was excellent! Also our driver, Felix, was superb.

We truly appreciate your kind words about our guide and driver. Your feedback is very valuable and will help us improve future experiences. Hope to see you again in Cebu for another adventure.

Awesome Cebu City Tour - recommended!

This is an amazing short tour to the Siaro Gardens and some sights around the city. Our guide Elvira was very knowledgeable and driver Ronnie dove us smoothly through the bustling streets as well as interacted with us in the car. So good to interact with the both of them. The car was comfortable and smooth and cool. Loved it this tour and highly recommend it!
