Bohol Travel Guide

BOHOL COUNTRYSIDE TOUR

We highly recommend this tour for those who are first visiting Bohol. You will see some famous spots which are unique to the place, like:

  • Chocolate Hills, which are named so because the mounds of hills look like Chocolate in the summer season;
  • Tarsier, which is considered among the world’s smallest primates
  • Centuries-old churches (Baclayon Church)
  • Butterfly Sanctuary
  • Bilar Manmade Forest
  • Blood Compact
  • Loboc River

1. CHOCOLATE HILLS

In grade school, I bet we already knew the famous Chocolate Hills. Needless to say, it is an excellent place for Instagrammable pictures. ATVs are a must, as well as exploring the hills. To achieve a significant green shot of these hills, try to go from November to March to see them at their best.

2. BILAR MAN-MADE FOREST

After visiting the Chocolate Hills, which are now next to this place, it is pretty accessible along the way to Chocolate Hills. This became a well-known tourist spot in Bohol because of its surprising beauty. I never thought that this forest was not naturally grown by nature; I just believed it when I saw it with my own eyes. It’s very beautiful and captivating.

3. TARSIER – SMALLEST PRIMATE IN THE WORLD

In my entire life, it was my very first time seeing a tarsier in person. It’s pretty scary to be near them, yet exciting. Their huge round eyes are simply perfect, it never close! Lol! I can’t imagine that this smallest primate would have these eyes. These tarsiers have a specific place; if you want to see eye to eye, make sure you go to the Tarsier Sanctuary. It’s the only place they do not live in cages and have enough space to feel forest life.

4. LOBOC RIVER CRUISE

Loboc River Cruise is mostly known as Loboc Floating Restaurant, and it is a must-try place to eat, I suggest. I remember those days seeing this river cruise in photos on the internet. I felt so happy to finally experience this cruise on the river. The sight of a jade-green river with native restaurants afloat and lush trees on the river bank always makes my eyes pop!

Our tour in Bohol is just a DIY. We arranged our tours on our own because it was cheaper and we could manage our time better. Upon arriving at the Hotel, everything was perfectly set!

BUFFET LUNCH / CRUISE / LIVE ENTERTAINMENT

Buffet Lunch is on set when you board. It will be self-service. The selection was apt, and the food was excellent and adequate. You may choose the best spot on your table. Since we were almost in the middle of the line, we could not select the 2 seater seats, we were seated in 6 seaters table which was good as well cause we had a chance to meet other people. Most were done when the boat started moving and could focus on the scenery. I remember there was also a live band to serenade all on-board passengers.

CULTURAL PRESENTATION

On a separate floating wherry, locals of Bohol, all decked in traditional clothes, made extra money for a simple yet captivating presentation by dancing and singing while playing musical instruments. Giving tips is not mandatory, but sharing yours is much appreciated. Some guests participated in the famous Filipino dance, tinikling, while most of us took memento shots. What a great time!
