Don't you think it would be wonderful to swim with one of the sea's largest creatures? Boasting a body larger than 10 meters in size, the whale shark that are in Oslob have an astounding appearance rate of over 95%! These creatures are completely harmless to humans meaning that the entire family can enjoy the experience! There are also other various activities to do with the whale sharks that include feeding them from above the nearby port. During waiting times, relax on the golden sands of Oslob and look out into the vast cobalt ocean before you.
Cebu's Largest Waterfall "Kawasan"!
We're sure you'll be tired after swimming alongside the whale sharks, which is why this tour includes visiting Cebu's largest waterfall "Kawasan". Surrounded by nature, trek through the forest and become entranced listening to the sounds of the nearby waterfall. We firmly believe that this waterfall is one of the most beautiful in the world and one you can relax at. We're sure you'll be in a great mood by getting away from the city for a while and trekking around the surroundings forests and taking in some of Cebu's wildlife and nature.
Making the most of your time abroad
Here at Tabinaka, we value time. We're sure you value time also, especially time that you don't get very often. Which is why we want to help you save time during your precious holiday abroad in the Philippines. It's thanks to these values that we were able to condense what is normally a 2-day tour into just 12-14 hours of fun-packed activities. It's also thanks to this that we can offer a
lower price versus competitors. Meaning you get more bang for your buck! For this tour we even offer a pick-up and drop-off service where we can pick you up from any hotel you have booked within Cebu city; just let us know beforehand where we need to be!
