Important Information

Day 1: Bohol

Welcome to The Philippines. Upon arrival you at Panglao Island Airport, you will be met by a representative of our local operator and transferred by shuttle service to your hotel. Remainder of the day at leisure.

Day 2: Bohol (BL)

Depart from your hotel today for a tour of the Bohol countryside which features some truly stunning natural landscapes. Spanish rule of the Philippines began in Bohol in 1565 and much of the landscape remains as it must have looked then when the Spanish General Legazpi landed here.

Today’s highlights feature the Blood Compact Shrine, commemorating the first Filipino Spanish treaty, and the Baclayon Church, one of the oldest in the Philippines. You’ll also visit the extraordinary Chocolate Hills, consisting of over 1,200 haycock hills that turn brown in the dry season, and the picturesque Bilar man-made forest. Take a scenic boat cruise along the Loboc River, where you can savour a freshly prepared lunch while admiring the surrounding flora and fauna. Additionally, you will visit the Tarsier Conservation Centre to see the world’s smallest (and arguably cutest) primate. At the completion of the tour, you will be transferred back to your hotel.

Days 3 & 4: Bohol (B)

Two days at leisure. Explore Bohol in your own pace and style. Famed for its beaches, Bohol is the perfect place to find your own slice of paradise.

Day 5: Bohol (B)

This morning you will be transferred to Panglao Island Airport for your onward flight.
