Full description

Travel via private car charter to Oslob where you'll get up close to the friendly whale sharks on your trip to Cebu. This slow-moving filter-feeding carpet shark is one of the largest known fish species - and a true sight to behold. On the trip, get to snorkel and swim with the whale sharks. To begin your adventure, wake up bright and where you will be picked up in your hotel lobby at 3 AM. Take a scenic drive along the Southern Cebu coastline. Once you arrive in Oslob, get your snorkeling gear and hop in the water for your whale shark encounter. After a briefing regarding what to look for and basic safety rules, enjoy your time in the beautiful ocean filled with amazing sea creatures. Take your time to get used to the water and snorkeling gears and have a truly unique experience of making friends with Oslob's famous whale sharks. At the end of the experience, enjoy a local lunch to recharge your energy.  Return back to your accommodation in Cebu by around 1-2 PM with a convenient private transfer. Upgrade your tour to include a 1-hour full body relaxing massage. Choose from the signature Swedish, Shiatsu, or Thai Massage. Soothe your mind and energize your body after a long day of traveling. Alternatively, after your Whale Shark experience, upgrade your tour to visit Tumalog Falls. Your tour guide will take you for a hike and motorcycle ride to see unique rock formations and clear water falling from the top. Return to Cebu City/Mactan by 4 PM.

I was a solo traveler. My guide, Raul, was waiting for me before the actual pickup time was ready to go. The trip to Olson went smoothly and we arrived appx 0630 am… right before sunrise. Raul kindly guided me to the whale shark tour and took me to my next destination, the Tumalog Falls. He was so patient and took photos and videos for me, as I wasn’t able to do so alone. He answered my questions and was knowledgeable about Cebu and surrounding areas. This was truly one of the best tours I have ever been in and was treated with such kindness and respect. So many thanks to Raul for making this solo trip a memory of a lifetime. The whale shark tour lasted appx 30 min but really, that is all the time you really need. The guides on board are so attentive and helpful. They tk truly so their best to make sure you have the best time wand go above and beyond to help capture pictures to commemorate your time there. Thank you for such an amazing tour and service.
