UPDATE: Tumalog Falls in Cebu has been temporarily closed by the local government of Oslob starting March 17, 2024, until further notice. Please be advised that instead of visiting the falls, you will enjoy a monkey-viewing activity in Oslob. 

Embark on a 13-day Cebu to Boracay adventure and explore the natural attractions of the two islands on this Philippines tour package. This Cebu to Boracay package is ideal for those who want to explore waterfalls, swim with whale sharks, and lounge in white sand beaches in one trip as it already comes with flights, a 20kg baggage allowance, airport transfers, accommodations, breakfast at the hotels, and several tours. This vacation package to the Philippines also gives you the option to book add-on tours.

After you arrive at the Manila Ninoy Aquino International Airport on day 1, your transfer will escort you to your hotel in Manila. Rest and prepare for your flight the next day. On day 2, your transfer will bring you back to Manila Airport so you can catch your flight to Cebu. After landing there, you will be picked up and dropped off in your hotel in Moalboal, your home for 4 nights.

You have a scheduled Oslob Cebu Whale Shark Watching, Tumalog Falls, and Pescador Island tour on day 3. This will give you the chance to see whale sharks and enjoy a beautiful cascade of water in Cebu. (Tumalog Falls is temporarily closed and will be temporarily replaced by a monkey-viewing activity in Oslob.) You can use day 4 to rest or explore Cebu on your own. On day 5, you’ll head to Pescador Island to experience the sardine run and get close to turtles. To ensure that no harm falls on the animals, refrain from touching or disturbing them.

From Cebu, you’ll fly to Boracay on day 6 of your tour of the Philippines. Your transfer will be waiting for you at the airport to escort you to your hotel in Boracay. The next day of this Philippines itinerary, you can enjoy a free helmet diving activity, which will allow you to see the diverse marine life of Boracay’s waters. If you want to snorkel in other areas of Boracay, you may want to book a private island-hopping tour as an add-on for day 8. 

Your last scheduled activity is your UFO ride on day 9. Enjoy a fast, exhilarating ride or a slow, relaxing cruise across Boracay’s waters. On your last days on the island, you can explore it on your own or book add-on tours to make the most of your visit. You can enjoy ATV riding and river jumping, parasailing, or going on a sunset paraw ride. 

On day 13 of this Philippine travel package, have breakfast at the hotel and checkout. Your transfer will be waiting to take you back to Caticlan Airport so you can board your flight back to Manila.
