Package overview
This itinerary sets itself apart from the other Manila pairings in the range with its wildlife and adventure focus: after two nights of Manila sightseeing, clients fly to Cebu for a half-day city tour followed by a full day combining Oslob's whale shark watching with Kawasan Falls. It's built for clients whose main interest is the marine and outdoor activity rather than beach lounging or heritage touring alone.
One operational detail worth flagging to clients: the tour ends with departure directly from Cebu rather than returning to Manila, so onward or international flights need to be booked out of Cebu, not Manila. The Manila–Cebu sector is a domestic flight not included in the package price.
Trip highlights
- Full-day Manila sightseeing (9:00 am to 7:00 pm)
- Half-day Cebu city tour on arrival
- Oslob whale shark watching, snorkelling alongside whale sharks in their natural feeding grounds
- Kawasan Falls, combined with the Oslob excursion on the same day
- Tour concludes with departure from Cebu rather than a return to Manila
Day-by-day itinerary
Day 1: Welcome to the Philippines
Arrival in Manila to begin the tour, with the rest of the day free before the full-day city sightseeing that follows.
Day 2: Full-day Manila sightseeing (9:00 am to 7:00 pm)
A full day of Manila sightseeing running from 9:00 am to 7:00 pm, covering the capital's main heritage and city landmarks ahead of the flight to Cebu.
Day 3: Flight to Cebu and half-day Cebu city tour
A domestic flight to Cebu, followed by a half-day city tour covering the city's historic Spanish-era core in the afternoon after arrival.
Day 4: Oslob whale shark watching and Kawasan Falls
A full day combining Oslob's whale shark watching, where clients snorkel alongside whale sharks in shallow coastal waters, with a visit to Kawasan Falls. It's the itinerary's signature day and the main reason clients choose this routing over the other Cebu options.
Day 5: Departure from Cebu
Free time until transfer to the airport for departure directly from Cebu, rather than a return flight via Manila.
