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!

Our airbnb host arranged a driver to take us to Oslob to swim with whale sharks and then to Kawasan falls and the canyoneering adventure. I can't say enough about this company. Safety conscious, our guide Lando was assigned to just the two of us and went above an beyond to help me (a senior citizen in decent but not perfect shape) to complete the entire course, including jumping off cliffs and sliding down waterfalls. I noticed guides from other companies not observing all safety practices but Southbund's motto was safety first including top notch equipment. Note, you will traverse 8 km of rocky terrain with uneven slippery rocks, much of the time in the river. We also did the 950 m long zipline option, which was the first time we ziplined. Great fun, very, very high up above the valley. The food was great too. Probably the best experience of the six weeks we spent in the Philippines. Highly recommended.

The Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park or popularly known as the Underground River is the the world's longest navigable underground river and one of the New Seven Wonders of Nature.

Minimum time for me to process the permits is atleast 3 days before arrival. This tour is subject to weather conditions. 2. Tour inside the cave is always on group of 8-10 persons per boat as strict policy of the park due to operational limitations of the site. 3. Tour is on first come first serve basis at the site.

We were picked up at the airport timely, but then taken to the main office and had to wait another half hour for a different vehicle to become available. Ride is long, windy, and road is not good, but driver did his best to get us there as fast as possible.

Nice evening, the dinner was very good and our tour guide was funny and knowledgeable . We spent a lot of time sitting around waiting and saw only a handful of fireflys how ever the river cruise it's self is still lovely. Would recommend going in the summer so you can see more firefly's as well as the bioluminescent plankton.

Riding the boards is an exhilarating new experience. It glides across the water with ease and precision. An extra balanced ride that is very easy to get on. It is all-inclusive as everyone can go on it. Children as young as 7 years old can ride it easily, as well as adults as old as 80 years old. If you can walk, you can get on it and walk on water! It’s great for children because it empowers them that they can do it. Aside from the fun experience, it is also an ecological ride. For those who loves going to the gym, this is also a wonderful alternative as it provides a good cardio activity. We open early because of this. It is also a beautiful way to watch the sunset and have that quiet moment and be grateful. We offer a great new experience to the island visitors. We are the only one who offer these boards. We provide a superior, complete and memorable riders experience.

Inclusions: Hobie Mirage Eclipse Board, Life vest

Went on the trip not expecting much but just to go on the ATV and drive up to the volcano. I did the advanced trail on a medium bike for 3,000 pesos (£45 or $60) for me this was well worth the money. My tour guide Mac took my phone at the start and provided me with plenty of pictures and videos of me driving through the picturesque valley of black silt and rocks. We stopped plenty of times to take some cool slow-mo shots of driving through puddles and making splashes which turned out really well and took me to a small clearing where we just messed around for a bit. We got to the lava flow and it was pretty cool but the things that captured my eyes were the views over the legazpi Bay Area and the volcano, absolutely stunning and mind blowing that the eruption from 2 years ago was still hot enough underneath to make steam. Honestly didn’t know what to expect but had a thoroughly enjoyable 3 and a half hours, had to give Mac a tip as he looked after me so well for the afternoon. Thanks Mac and thanks to Your Brother ATV for a great afternoon.
