A fantastic day from dawn to dusk. I was picked up from my Cebu City Hotel at 2:15am in a nice minivan with 5 other passengers and arrived at Oslob For the Whale Shark watching around 5:45 after 1 stop at 7 eleven for coffee. After getting our allocated time slot on an FCFS basis we got out on the boat around an hour later. It was fantastic to see these animals in the water and you can hire a go-pro for 550 php which a guide will use to video you and the whale shark. After some average breakfast (wasn’t expecting much) we went on to the canyoneering which was another 90 minute drive. You’re then kitted out in shoes / jacket / helmet and given a guide. You can trek to the falls or take a zip line. I opted for the latter which was great fun. The guide took my phone and took some amazing videos and pictures of the day. It was a superb tour and would highly recommend it. I arrived back at my hotel around 7pm so a long day but very much worth it.

When it comes to the whale shark, just be prepared that you are not in the open water. You are in a closed off area where they are feeding the sharks so that you can get close to them. There will be a TON of people there so be patient. As far as the canyoneering, PLEASE MAKE SURE you have enough tip money for your driver and as many as four guides to lead you through the hike. Also have well gripping shoes with rugged soles. You will appreciate it. The whole canyoneering experience was awesome. The guides don’t get enough money. They help you as well as take excellent photos with your phone/go pro. Just great

Amazing experience everything was well organised!!! Good touring service giving by the touring company. Fast customer service from Pelago. However neither Pelago nor the local agent contacted me the day before the tour so I had to chase it around…
