Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Jae was an amazing tour guide and so knowledgeable. We had spent two days in Cebu city but it wasn’t until our day out with Jae that we began to appreciate the culture surrounding the city. There’s so much to see and do that I think you’ll only get through a local tour! Highly recommend this tour."
"Jae is an amazing guide! She showed us all the local places and also showed the non-touristic places. The local snacks were a good extra to the tour. We had a lot of fun, and would really recommend Jae! "
"Michael took us on a street food tour in Cebu Philippines. We walked along the market both indoor and outdoor and tried a huge variety of foods. What’s great about having a guide is that we stop and try things that as an individual I would probably not know enough to attempt to try. There was a group of eight of us and we all had fun and we all tried new things and we all got full of tasty, entrées, snacks, drinks, desserts.. The only suggestion would be is if you advertise alcohol to make sure that there is alcohol. It’s only available at the last stop from a 7-Eleven store. But our guide Michael was wonderful and very accommodating And anything that we wanted, he would get for us. I totally recommend Michael and this tour. "
"Mary was an absolute joy with—talkative, outgoing, and incredibly friendly. The whole experience was fun, and genuinely enjoyable. She guided me through some amazing local food spots in Cebu—places I never would’ve found on my own and that offered truly authentic dishes. Even though I don’t eat pork , Mary was extremely thoughtful and flexible. She made sure I still got the full foodie experience without compromising my dietary needs. Thanks to Mary, I discovered a whole new side of Cebu’s food culture. Her passion, knowledge, and warm personality turned this tour into one of the highlights of my trip. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for more than just a food tour—Mary gives you a real, memorable experience."

"My friend and I had a fantastic, tailored tour with Jae. We started the tour with some sites in Cebu and we were taken to different streets that we would never have been able to find on our own. The food tasting was also amazing. Jae is incredibly friendly and professional; it’s clear she really loves her job and she went above and beyond. I wish we had a Jae in every place we visit! Would 100% recommend- you’ll have a great time "
"Due to our limited time Jae was able to organise a customised tour at very late notice, and we really appreciated this. She guided us through some of the religious and historical sites in Cebu City, answering all our questions and keeping us engaged with her story telling. Our favourite was the Yap Sandiego Ancestral House and the tasty food from Doming's Ngohiong. Thanks again Jae!"
"Had a wonderful tour with Micheal we got to see some historic buildings in Cebu along with tasting some great local food really enjoyed the tour.! Micheal also went out of his way to help us find items we were looking for would really recommend this tour with Micheal "
"Jae was a great guide. She was able to tell us all about the history of the places we visited as well as letting us experience the locals way of life from foods to riding in jeepneys!"
