This full-day adventure begins and ends with convenient hotel pick-up and drop-off available from Cebu City, Mandaue City, and Mactan Island (Lapu-Lapu City). If you're staying outside these areas, such as in Talisay, Consolacion, or farther south, additional fees may apply; please contact us in advance to confirm arrangements. Pick-up typically starts between 5:00 AM and 6:00 AM, depending on your location, and the exact time will be confirmed the day before your tour. The total tour duration is approximately 10 to 12 hours.
You’ll travel in an air-conditioned vehicle heading south to Moalboal, where your first stop awaits. Upon arriving at Panagsama Beach, you'll dive straight into the water for a guided snorkelling experience. Just a few metres from the shore, witness the spectacular Sardine Run an awe-inspiring underwater display where thousands of sardines move in synchrony, forming silver waves beneath the surface. As you snorkel among them, you might also spot sea turtles gliding peacefully through the clear, shallow waters. With no boat ride required, this easy shore-entry snorkelling adventure offers an up-close encounter with Cebu’s thriving marine ecosystem. After snorkelling, guests have the option to spend an hour relaxing at a nearby beach. Here, you can sunbathe, swim, or simply rest while enjoying the scenic view of the ocean. It’s the perfect opportunity to unwind and soak up the tropical atmosphere before continuing with the rest of your adventure.
Next, head inland to Barili and visit the majestic Mantayupan Falls, the tallest waterfall in Cebu. Surrounded by lush tropical vegetation, this two-tiered cascade is a breathtaking natural wonder. Please note that swimming at the falls may not always be allowed, depending on local safety conditions and water flow. When swimming is restricted, you can still enjoy the view, take photos, and walk around the scenic area for a refreshing nature escape.
Then it's time for a thrilling quad bike adventure through the countryside of Barili. You’ll ride along muddy tracks, forested paths, and scenic hills for about an hour. All safety gear and a briefing are provided, and the ride is beginner-friendly. Please note that availability of big bikes may vary, and during high-demand days or maintenance periods, only standard-sized ATVs might be offered. Rest assured, the adventure remains just as fun and exciting.
Before heading back to the city, enjoy a satisfying lunch at a local restaurant, featuring delicious Cebuano dishes (included in the package). After a full day of exploration from the sea to the mountains you’ll return to your hotel with unforgettable memories of Cebu’s natural beauty, local charm, and adventurous spirit, all experienced in just one day.
