I really loved the place! I like how everthing was well preserved and taken care of. The museum showcased a lot of historical events and facts, and kept the antiques in place. Also, the tour guides were really accomodating and were very knowwledgeable.

We went as a couple and had an amazing adventure here. The pair of us were new to waterfalls and the falls were just perfect for non-climbers. A real adventure. What we would have done without are two excellent guides I don’t know, Carlos and his cousin lead us with expert and got this 61 year old and partner up the 8 levels with great care. Thoroughly recommended for the adventurous first timer. A waterproof camera would be a good extra as the scenery here is breathtaking.

It is a historical site. However, the entry road on a narrow side street looked dirty and after entry to the 1730 Jesuit House wondered it was a old hardware crap store. But that is ground level. They collect a entrance fee of 50 pesos. I am not sure, it includes a guide, but a girl guide came to explain about the Jesuit House. It is wooden made two storey house. The house was once the residence of the Jesuit superior who was assigned in Cebu. The two-storey house has cut coral stone walls, tugas hardwood floors and posts, and terracotta roof connected on its second floor by a walkway to a smaller house. The house has a small library, a chapel, and some rooms. The house has a lot of old items like piano, sewing machine, projector, type writer, for music, radio, phone, lighting, etc, etc. It is difficult to find such old items at one place, therefore it is a must visit in Cebu. Can spent more than 30 minutes here. The attractions "1730 Jesuit House", "Yap Sandiego Ancestral House" and "Cebu Heritage Monument" are located at less than a minutes walk.

This hidden waterfalls is one of the places i looked forward to when visiting cebu. You will hike for about 15-20mins to get there. This place is very small, but it offers different level/height of jumping spots. If you are a bit adventurous, you could also jump from inside the falls. The climb is challenging. The pool is small and shallow so be extra careful and always listen to your guide. The water is so refreshing that you can enjoy swimming here especially in the afternoon. Tour guides are required when visiting this place. There are designated tourguide assigned at the entrance. Please give tips to your guides because they are there to make sure you are safe while still having fun. :)

The experience was unexpectedly great! What we thought would be just another one the usual visits to an ancestral house turned out to be the most interesting part of our itinerary. Thanks to our tour guide, Lloyd, who made the tour very interesting and entertaining.

Sandira Beach (aka Paradise Beach) is a 30 min walk from Santa Fe town, or few min by bike. There is a 50php fee. Being said that, the place is just amazing, very quite with one of the best water I’ve ever seen. There is no bar or anything that sells water, beer or food so you should organize yourself. There are some wooden beach umbrellas that create some helpful shadow :)

We haven't enjoy much since it rained (sad) but I can assure that this place is beautiful and refreshing. A lot of spots that you can take an unlimited pictures (Instagrammable pictures!!). Some spots are not yet finished. You can also buy "pasalubong" like ref magnets and others. There's a lot of food stalls outside the garden. There's an entrance free (not sure hm much but it's not that expensive). You must visit this place (Amsterdam of the Phil)...
