This is a 3.5 = Pretty good. the guides were kind and resourceful. For the price this was a lovely way to spend the afternoon, the snorkling and island were beautiful. The guides did not actually know much about the islands or the environment, but were good people who need jobs. The boat was leaking diesel and they had to repair the engine several times. I didn't blame them, but the tour operator definitely needs more sustainable boats, it just does not make sense to send gas leaking, oily boats out into such beauty. Tourists - take a bit more time and find the highest rated green and in terms of guide training!

My friends and I went to Boracay way back May 2019 to celebrate my birthday. Was looking for an adventure that we can enjoy. Then I came across this diving at Ariel's point for whole day. I didn't regret doing this as activity as we really had a good time. We went to the meeting point in the morning, went on a boat ride for half an hour. On-board we had unlimited drinks of soda, liquor and beers which is really cool! when we arrived at the area we were given instructions by the staff. You can dive from 5m, 10m or 15m. And if you get tired from jumping or don't feel doing it you may, paddle boarding and kayaking. The location also was secluded and very clean!

Our trip started with a cancellation and then a no show which added to the journey time. Once out of Cebu City the roads are terrible so it was a very uncomfortable 2 hours. We arrived to chaos and frankly given how crowded you are on the boat as well in the water, it is simply not worth it. Too many people in the water vying for their video or picture. The Whale Sharks were delightful but only for a half hour. The waterfall was the same, crowded and uninspiring. The trip back took 5 hours as traffic was awful. I don't recommend this at all. I know people have to make money and they are all very nice but it simply isn't worth it.

Review south shore Cebu travel and tours: I wanted to do Badjan canyoneering, swim with sardine, snorkel with whale shark within 2 days in Cebu. I found it with South Shore Cebu Travel and tours - the 2D1N Cebu South Tour All in Package Tour. Emails were responded. Cost was confirmed as advertised online (9300 php pp + 500 php per foreigner. Half deposit with 5% credit card fee, rest in cash, for 5 of us). There was not much review for this tour company. I was a little apprehensive, but I decided to take a chance because it fitted in our holiday travel schedule. Now, I have experienced it. There is nothing to fear. It started with pick up at Cebu Airport in a big van for us 5. Because of immigration delay at Cebu Airport, we were 30 min late on meet up time. Our driver advised to switch our itinerary and do Day 2 itinerary first without cutting out any activity. It worked out great without any glitches. We had a quick stop for breakfast and onto Badjan Canyoneering first. There was restroom to change for swimwear. All safety gears and canyoneering guides were included. (Do wear your own water shoes/sandals.) 5 motorbikes drove us to the entrance. We paid additional 500php per person for 1 km long zip line to cut out 35min hiking (this was optional). Canyoneering was must do even for my husband and I who skipped some of the big jumps. Our included lunch was yummy and served at the tour base with rice, chicken, shrimp, stirfry vegetables, mangos and soft drink/coconut. Driver arranged a private long boat for us 5 to Pescador Island, Sardines run and tutle hunting. Pescador Island had clear view of amazing colorful corals and fish. Our boat guides spotted turtles for us to swim with. There were guides to snorkel with you and take photos for you under water at every stop. Their snorkel equipment is ok, and does not include fins. Our day was fun and was almost 7pm when driver took us to Oslob for the night. The Inn advised the driver that their restaurant is closing so our driver took us to a restaurant for dinner (your own fare) before dropping us off at the Inn. Downsouth 118 Inn was ok with basic bedding, hot water. It was sea front and provided breakfast (we had arrange take out because of early activity next day) and lunch. They even allowed us to return after check out to shower/change the next day. However, they charged a small fee for use of additional towel next day. Day 2 was Oslob whale shark swimming. Our driver did everything from checking in, registration, guide us to transfer from parking lot to the event site. There was 2 hour delay from our appointed time due to alot of visitors but our driver patiently kept us updated. We were able to nap in airconditioned van or walk around and take sunrise photos. Again, whale shark swimming was a must. Life jackets and snorkel gears (no fins) provided (cannot swim freely without fin as the water current was strong). Majority of us just hung on to the boat while dipping our snorkel masks under water to see the whales. Next activity to the Sumilon Island had a long long wait for the boat. Our driver again did everything. We just waited patiently at the dock while buying and eating fried banana, roasted corns. There was no sign of where to register or check in. We would not know what to do if trying to do it on our own. We waited 2 hours again before driver negotiated with the boat company that when we return after lunch, we will be given priority boarding which did happen. Our lunch was back at the Inn as we gathered our luggage. After Sumilon Island was Tumalong Falls viewing and Osmena Peak hiking. Again, it was late evening when we returned to Cebu City. Driver was kind to take us to a restaurant and waited and then dropped us off to our airbnb. Nothing more came out of our pockets except tipping and our own dinners.There was no hidden charges. Every detail, entrance fee, local guides, registrations were handled by the driver. Driver spoke English. He handed us off to each local guides/tour personally. We never felt lost. The drive was safe. The van was spacious for us 5 and air conditioned and included water bottles. I would use the tour again when returning to Cebu.
