Whale Sharks and Sumilon Island

Published on Jun, 2024

The trip was so amazing! Can't believe the size and gratefulness of the whale sharks. We got so close to them :) I highly recommend it and our tour guides were fantastic!! 10 out of 10

Fantastic experience of swimming with large Sharks!

Published on Feb, 2020

It was much better than I expected to swim with large sharks!! Sharks swam almost next to me. You must try this unforgettable experience in Cebu!

Extremely happy experience ever!!

Published on Feb, 2020

The only place you can swim with wild Whale shark. Not only one but a lot!!. You may think wild Whale shark terrible? Noway, They are very friendly for people. As same as whale sharkes, this tour, Fun Group Cebu was very friendly and well trained staff. They know histories of cebu, a hot restaurant, bar, massage in cebu. I totally satisfied with this tour. 野生のジンベイザメと泳げる世界有数のツアー。それも１匹だけではなく、たくさん！怖いと思う人もいると思いますが、ご心配なく。彼らはとってもフレンドリーで優しい生き物です。ジンベイザメ同様、このツアー会社もフレンドリーで良かったです（日本人経営）。セブの歴史や美味しいレストランやバー、安心でお得なマッサージ屋さんも教えてくれて、とても満足できました

Great tour
