The Best Experience in Bohol

Bohol ・ 2017-08-14 ・ 0 comments

Bohol island is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the Philippines among international and local tourists, and it's also near Cebu.

It takes approximately 2-3 hours by ferry boat from Cebu to Bohol.

Tagbilaran is one of the most famous towns in Bohol. It's the entrance way to the whole Bohol island.

Unlike Cebu where you can go anywhere due to its small size, Bohol is quite huge. It may take you days to tour the whole island due to massive sightseeing sites on the island. We will only have two stops, so try to make sure to treasure every place you can visit!

Bohol's attractions may be somewhat similar to Cebu.

When it comes to Bohol island, the Chocolate Hills is one of the famous attractions

You can see more than 1000 hills in 30 meters stretching out the whole view!

Chocolate Hills. It is the symbol of the island of Bohol. The is made out of limestone that's why the hills have no trees. Although, grass grows on the hills.

When the dry season comes, as the grasses on the hills wither, the color of the hill will turn to brown. The scenery becomes chocolate-like color, that's why it is called "Chocolate Hills".

From the parking lot climbing to the top until the 214th then you can see a huge panoramic view of the nature.

The top is the best part. The view is so breathtakingly beautiful. You will surely forget the fatigue from climbing all those floors.

Bohol's current mascot: the Tarsier

If the tarsier is scared, it will be under great stress. During the pictorial, he did not turn this way, but the fact that the eyes are big.

The tarsier is really small, weighing at most 100 grams!

It is said to be the smallest monkey in the world, it's cute and can even fit in your palms!

Tarsiers are nocturnal in nature, and they eat insects. Most tarsiers sleep at day.
