We offer to plunge into the wild jungle of Cebu Island and, for the most adventurous and active, to visit the canyoning on the Canla Ob River in the municipality of Badian. The exit of the canyoning will be to the most beautiful waterfall on the island—Kawasan. Four hours of fun, movement and enjoying the beautiful views, cool aquamarine water of the mountain river, and adrenaline. Canyoning is energetic, positive and moody. The route passes through places where the beauty of waterfalls and trails is indescribable. Passing through the canyon is more like an amusement park.

   • Visit a location with tropical butterflies and a white python.
   • Visit the man-made forest (Mahogany Forest). Mahogany Forest is the first and only man-made forest in the Philippines. It mainly consists of mahogany trees about 2 kilometres long, densely spread in Bilar and Loboc towns. The terrain on both sides of the road goes upwards and I don't know how high. You see only a redwood tree resembling thousands of sentries standing upright and guarding the road. No other vegetation grows among the redwoods. You can only see the brown trunks stretching out of the ground and the green canopy above them. And that is what makes them so attractive! It's beautiful to look at the roots of the trees as they protrude from the ground and creep over boulders and the earth's contours, even reaching the side of the road. Looking at them makes you shiver. Like the tentacles of a giant octopus, the roots seem to reach out and grab careless passersby, just as they did in the movie “Lord of the Rings.”
   • Visit the Tarsier Sanctuary. Seeing these little guys in the wild is quite problematic. They value privacy and do not like publicity. One of the favorite activities of tarsiers is playing “hide and seek”. High up in a tree, in the dense shade, among the leaves, it is extremely difficult to notice, much less see in detail.
   • A quad bike ride around the Chocolate Hills (60 min.)- Visit the Chocolate Hills. The Chocolate Hills are amazing landscapes created by nature. The Chocolate Hills are Bohol's most famous landmark and are even featured on the provincial coat of arms and flag. Wherever you look for information about Bohol, you will first be advised to see the Chocolate Hills. What are these hills? They are cone-shaped, their height varies from 30 to 120 meters, and their number reaches from 1260 to 1776 hills on 50 square meters. In the dry season, the grass on them burns out and becomes brown. All these factors together make these hills called chocolate hills. Scientists have not yet agreed on the origin of the Chocolate Hills in Bohol. The Chocolate Hills are located on a flat terrain, which is even more surprising to humans. Nevertheless, scientists have put forward several versions of the origin of such a miracle of nature: one - the chocolate hills were formed as a result of volcanic activity, the second - once this place was the bottom of the ocean with calcareous deposits, and after many years, when the water level in the sea dropped, they appeared on land, and the third - due to the impact of rainwater and soil erosion there was a rise of coral deposits.
   • Zip-line over the Loboc River (Loboc Eco-Tourism Adventure Park). Who likes to tickle their nerves, experience new emotions and get adrenaline? I want to note that the flight is not just in a rope park between trees but over the trees and even the river! The height of the flight on the zip line is about 100 meters. 
   • Float at a raft restaurant on the Loboc River Cruise and have lunch during the rafting (buffet, national cuisine). The Loboc River is one of the main rivers on the island. It is scenic, and its waters are calm, so there are floating raft-restaurant cruises. The cruise starts with a hearty lunch; then, the float continues for about one hour. There will be live music during the float. Songs may be boholano, jazz or blues. 
   • Enjoy traditional dancing and singing from performers on the riverbank. Be sure to wave to passengers from other floating restaurants as they pass in the other direction. Our floating restaurant will follow the winding river green—cruise past nipa palms, coconut palms, banana plants and shrubs. The water currents are calm until we reach the small Busay waterfall at the end of the trip.
   • Return to the hotel.

    • Departure at 8:00 am.
    • Private transfer to Panglao (Bohol) airport.
