Stop At: Chocolate Hills Natural Monument, Carmen Philippines
The most famous tourist attraction of Bohol boasts 1, 268 cone-shaped hills. The hills are spread over an area of 50 square kilometers and vary in size from 30 meters to 120 meters in height. There are two areas to visit to get a good look at the hills. These are at the Chocolate Hills Complex in Carmen town, and at the Sagbayan Peak.
Duration: 15 minutes
Stop At: Philippine Tarsier and Wildlife Sanctuary, 14 Canapnapan km.14, Canapnapan, Corella, Bohol, Corella 6300 Philippines
The Philippine Tarsier (Tarsius syrichta) is one of the smallest primates in the world. Most active at night, their diet consists of insects. The animal is no longer than a grown man's hand.

Loboc River and its serene waters are best appreciated with a fascinating ride on motorized pump boats adorned with buntings and native crafts. The boat ride usually starts at the docking area near the historic Loboc Church, moving along palm-fringed banks, lush inland vegetation, and pastoral scenes of quiet villages. The ride ends near the Tontonan waterfalls with cascading water that provides a pleasant bathing session.

Due to the weather on the day ( it was atrocious heavy rain) this trip should have been delayed by aviator and rescheduled on a different day. Poor judgement in my opinion. All pick up etc went perfectly however and the guide (Johnathan) did his best. The chocolate hills were in cloud with thunderous rain. A total waste of money I am afraid. At the very least aviator should refund a portion of this very expensive excursion as a gesture of good will!JamesChristian_F

The river cruise is exceptional. There’s a lunch buffet with Filipino delicacies. (You must try the Ube, a purple starchy vegetable. I will be seeking it out when I return to the States.). The scenery is amazing. Local children swing on rope swings and do fancy dives just for tourist adoration. The process is unrushed and is accompanied with live music. Tarsiers are endangered and still live in very few places worldwide. This may be your only chance to see them in real life. They’re tiny and you can get very close up. They are nocturnal, however, so don’t expect much motion. The Chocolate Mountains are nice. We did the optional ATV ride there. These were the trips highlights.Steve K

I took a day trip to Bohol with Southwind Travel. They pick up at the hotel and take you back. The trip to the Island is roughly two hours. When you get there the tour is approximately 5 hours. Its on an air conditioned tour bus. There are so many things to see and do there: the Tarsier Monkey sanctuary (you can get very close to them, but are no longer able to hold them), the Butterfly sanctuary with its giant caterpillars and fantastic flowers, the Chocolate Hills which are really amazing to look at (there are stairs to the top of one so you have a beautiful view of the surrounding areas) and you also get to cruise down the Loboc River. The cruise comes with a great buffet lunch. You do make a brief stop at the ancient Immaculate Conception Church which is worth the visit. One interesting thing you see along the way is a massive Rooster "camp" with individual homes for the birds. Cock fighting is huge there. There are mini corrals all over for this. On the the way home we did see a cock fight taking place on the side of the road. Its a pretty nasty affair if you aren't used to it. Well worth the money. Good for all ages. Bohol has nice beaches as does near by Panglao Island. I would definitely stay overnight next time I am there. Panglao is a resort area with lots of Hotels. One note on the boat trip over to Bohol. You get assigned seats when you board, but once you leave port, you can head up to the "cheap seats" on deck and enjoy the sea breeze!
