Experience the best of
Cebu with Withlocals

"From the booking, to the tour itself, Jessie and his crew were awesome! Jessie communicated well as well as his staff that did our tour. I was able to customize the tour to what we wanted to do. Sid was the lead guide along with his wife, another young woman. Our tour started out fine but due to some personal reasons within our group, we had to cut our tour short. Sid and crew tried their best to accommodate us but it was best that we cut the tour short. Having said that, when we come back to Cebu, I would definitely book another tour with Jessie and his staff! "

"Jessie made my arrangements online and Bryan met me at my hotel right on time. He has a normal itinerary, but if you have your own ideas, he’ll certainly oblige. We spent the day seeing local sights, and Bryan was able to educate me on Cebuano culture, this is very handy information if you’re going to be staying a while. Great guy, great tour… so GREAT!"

"We only had two days in Cebu and Jessie organised this amazing 2 day private tour. He's an excellent guide, picked us up at the airport with a really nice luxurious car. He's knowledgeable, calm, very friendly, and a very safe driver. You can't go wrong with these guys, they're real professionals. "

"We had a really good time with the guys. It was a really local look into Cebu. I would choose them again."

"We did a 2 day tour with Jessie Nilo (Jessie Carl’s brother) and loved every second of it! We had an absolute ball and would 100% recommend doing the tour! We only had 3 days in Cebu and couldn’t be happier that we spent 2 of them with Jessie, showing us around and looking after us every step of the way, we’ll definitely be back!"

"Jessie is a very nice guy ! My trip to the Philippines was unforgetable and he had a huge contribution on that. I was travelling alone and felt safe the intire trip! I wish him all the best and for sure he has a guide in brazil!!! Thanks Jessie"

"Yusef Masjedi · November 26, 2016 Jessie is not only an excellent guide for adventure but a foodie like me as well :) his tours are prefect for adrenaline junkies, but he always made us feel safe. Our quick stay in Cebu was jam packed with the best the island had to offer with a guide I can now truly call a friend! 10/10 would recommend to anyone"

"i was travelling alone to cebu and had been looking around online for tours, was so glad to come across this! sent out a message very late at night and did not expect to get a reply so quickly, communication was clear and he was very helpful in arranging the itinerary just a day before i arrived. imagine swimming with whale sharks, climbing up osmena peak and canyoneering at kawasan falls all in one day! although slightly pricey because i was doing it solo but it was really convenient to have a private transport and not have to figure things out on my own. i had the energy to truly enjoy the activities and always felt comfortable and safe too. thank you so much for being such a wonderful guide and photographer! send my regards to the other guide too! :)"

"I had a great day with Michael. Michael was very attentive and not only drove slower (it was my first time on a motorcycle) but also took care of all. Highly recommended "

"I have SO much to share. Firstly, let me say that this was my first time using WithLocals and I will DEFINITELY use it again. It was just my girlfriend and I would be lying if I said that people didn’t think we were crazy setting this tour up with a stranger. We could not imagine this trip without Nilo. Being guided by someone whom we would now call a friend made a huge difference in our experience. We did SO much in 2 days and he knew all of the best places. He introduced us to the culture, history, food and all of the best must-see activities. He went out of his way to take care of us and show us the best time. We are going to genuinely miss him so much. "
