My friends and I went to Boracay way back May 2019 to celebrate my birthday. Was looking for an adventure that we can enjoy. Then I came across this diving at Ariel's point for whole day. I didn't regret doing this as activity as we really had a good time. We went to the meeting point in the morning, went on a boat ride for half an hour. On-board we had unlimited drinks of soda, liquor and beers which is really cool! when we arrived at the area we were given instructions by the staff. You can dive from 5m, 10m or 15m. And if you get tired from jumping or don't feel doing it you may, paddle boarding and kayaking. The location also was secluded and very clean!

We did a Bangkok temple tour and visit to bridge over the river Kwai. Pete was our tour guide and he is exceptional at what he does. He is very well known within the trade and if you’re with Pete you are a VIP. Kom was our driver and shuttled is to and from airport and our adventures! He is a great driver I would not want to drive there!

Our trip was a shared one , we knew this and pick up was on time, Guide gave short introduction at each stop then group had a set time before we moved on. Lunch was initially to be very early 11.30 am but we alll agreed to make the river cruise and lunch last stop after chocolate hills. Viewpoint needs 200 plus steps so not for the lesss mobile. Pity that quad bikes below disturb peace of site. Excellent buffet lunch and river trip with music and bankside cultural show. Good value and varied if you can spare a day off the beach.

This was a great tour, very informative and the tour guide was excellent. Yes, it felt a little rushed, however I do expect that on these short tours which are more of a taster. I do wish we had more time at Fort Santiago to explore 'solo'. There was just so much to see and I would have loved the opportunity to wander on my own for a little bit. The reason this review is 3 stars is that on our tour we did not visit San Agustin Church. I understand the traffic was shocking on a Saturday afternoon, however, I was sitting in the van fully expecting to go there, when the next minute I am back at my hotel with no warning or checking if it was okay to skip this part. I was bitterly disappointed as this was my only free day in Manila and there was no opportunity for me to visit on my own. Would suggest you market this tour as 4-5 hours to allow for the traffic situation and to avoid disappointment. Nevertheless, what I did see was excellent & I found it very informative.
