6.Moalboal Snorkeling, Mantayupan Falls & ATV Adventure

★★★★★★★★★★4.1 · 13 reviews · 1 day · from $117

Start early from Cebu City, Mandaue, or Mactan for shore-entry snorkeling with Moalboal’s sardine run and possible sea turtles. Then visit 200-foot Mantayupan Falls, ride an ATV through Barili’s countryside, and eat lunch in Carcar. Guides such as Rey, Val, and Alison have helped make this long private day run smoothly.

“My husband and I enjoyed this tour with Rey as our driver. He arrived early but did not rush us to come out. He was very kind and respectful the whole day. It was a far drive and an early start, but Rey was bright eyes and bushy tailed from the second we got in the car. He even suggested we stop for breakfast before our first activity. After all activities were done, Rey suggested a delicious place for lunch that specializes in Lechon. Would recommend.”
