Positive Day in Bohol
Great Positive day in Bohol with our Tour Guide Mrs. Lenelle ❤️.. But I did complain that there was NO CHOCOLATE to eat 😒😂 The boat cruise was an incredible experience, Positive Vibe from a group celebrating a birthday 😊

Beautiful Bohol
Very well organised tour. Our guide Nell was funny and full of local information. She really made the trip fun. It was great to get an overview of what Bohol has to offer. We would probably stay on the Island next time so that we can spend more time exploring. Its definalely a more laid back than the city. Thanks to Neil for the smooth ride.

Bohol tour
The boat ride was good. The river cruise lunch was good as well. The guide was ok but talked too much about nonsensical things.
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the boat ride and river cruise lunch. We appreciate your honest comment about the guide and will remind our guides to keep the information focused and relevant to the tour. We hope to welcome you again!

Great day out
We had a personalised tour only two of us. Very friendly tour guide and driver. Also great local and history knowledge.

Our day started with a...
Our day started with a 530 am pick up at our hotel, to the port where we rode a 2 hour ferry to Tagbilaran City. As soon as we disembarked, Joanne was already waiting for us with our name so we really didn’t have to wait and look. It was a private tour with the driver Rommel. Joanne was a great tour guide and a photographer. They drove us back to the ferry to Cebu. The driver who picked us up in the morning was already waiting for us, to take us back to the hotel. I would recommend this for a family tour.

Bohol Countryside Tour from Cebu Loboc River Cruise with Lunch: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cebu.
How much does Bohol Countryside Tour from Cebu Loboc River Cruise with Lunch cost?
+
Prices start at $139 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cebu usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Bohol Countryside Tour from Cebu Loboc River Cruise with Lunch take?
+
Plan for about 14 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Cebu is not rushed.
Is Bohol Countryside Tour from Cebu Loboc River Cruise with Lunch worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 81 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 185 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cebu, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Bohol Countryside Tour from Cebu Loboc River Cruise with Lunch?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Bohol Countryside Tour from Cebu Loboc River Cruise with Lunch suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 14-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Bohol Countryside Tour from Cebu Loboc River Cruise with Lunch?
+
Around 65 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cebu can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cebu and add a light layer if any part of the 14-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Bohol Countryside Tour from Cebu Loboc River Cruise with Lunch start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Cebu within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Cebu?
+
On Outty we rank every Cebu experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Whale Watching in Sumilon Island with Ocean View Resort Tour, Whale Shark & Tumalog Falls & Sumilon Sandbar & Pescador Island with Sardines, From Cebu: Oslob Whale Shark Swimming & Moalboal Sardine Run Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Cebu?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Cebu?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
