Cebu City

Days 1 - 3

Located in the Central Visayas region, Cebu City encompasses Cebu Island and more than 150 smaller surrounding islands and islets. As the Philippines’ oldest city, Cebu surprises visitors with its bustling streets, shopping arcades, and strobe-lit nightclubs - it bubbles with modern activity. Amid the madness, you’ll find several sites that bear testament to Cebu’s ancient roots, including exquisite Santa Nino Basilica (the oldest church in the country), atmospheric Colon Street (the oldest street in the country), and the striking 16th century Cebu Metropolitan Cathedral. For more frivolous entertainment, visit the slick Ayala Centre - a modern, upmarket mega mall - or head to one of the nearby beaches for sunshine, sea, and R&R.

Bohol

Days 3 - 5

The Bohol archipelago comprises Bohol Island and several satellite islets, and is renowned for its exceptional coral reefs, stunning white beaches, crumbling colonial mansions, and lush jungles. A key attraction on the main island includes the Chocolate Hills, a sea of conical hills that turns a rich brown in the hot season, forming a stark contrast with the surrounding emerald-green rainforests. Other highlights of the region are the spectacular reefs (perfect for snorkelling and scuba diving) around Panglao Island. Visitors can look forward to whale and dolphin watching, and sightings of the Bohol Tarsier - the world’s tiniest (and possibly most adorable) primate.
