    Another early tour in the morning when Al our tour guide picked us up from our hotel in Dumaguete. We then boarded a ferry and headed to the beautiful island of Siquijor.

    Throughout the day, our guide took us to some of Siquijor’s most stunning spots. We visited Cambugahay Falls, which is a picture-perfect three-tiered waterfall that’s perfect for swimming and relaxing. We also explored the historic Lazi Church and Convent, which dates back to the 18th century and is a stunning example of colonial architecture.

    Throughout the tour, Brian was exceptional – he was knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure we had a safe and enjoyable experience.
