A thrilling tour of Cebu's highlights
Cebu has always been a dreamy destination for travelers craving a mix of history, natural beauty, and heart-pounding adventures. If you're someone who's planning a trip to Cebu and don't know where to start, the 3-day Cebu Highlights Tour is just the thing to give you a taste of the best the island has to offer. The best part about this? Everything will be laid out for you in this article—no stress, just pure adventure.
Here's what your action-packed 3 days in Cebu could look like:
Day 1: Exploring Cebu's Cultural Spots
You begin your journey in Cebu by exploring its rich history and cultural landmarks. On the first day, you will explore the stories and sights that make Cebu a standout destination up close and personal.

You'll visit iconic spots like the Temple of Leah, a truly grand structure that's been nicknamed as "Cebu's Taj Mahal." It is a Roman-inspired architecture that symbolizes a husband's never-ending love for his wife, hence the nickname. Next up is the Taoist Temple, adorned with dragon statues and lots of greenery, which offers a peaceful retreat and a peek into Cebu's Chinese heritage.

A city tour wouldn't be complete without stepping into the heart of Cebu's history at the Basilica del Sto. Niño and Magellan's Cross. These landmarks have stood the test of time, bearing witness to the city's transformation over centuries.

For the sunset chasers out there, the 10,000 Roses Café is the perfect way to relax towards the end of the day. Picture this: sipping a drink while being surrounded by glowing (but not real!) roses that light up as the sun dips below the horizon—it's the kind of experience that you'll be talking about long after the trip ends.

The last stop for Day 1 is the Cuartel Ruins (Museo Oslob). This unfinished coral stone structure, built during the Spanish colonial period, gives us a glimpse into the past with its unique architecture and scenic coastal backdrop. It's a quiet spot to reflect on Cebu's rich heritage while enjoying the cool sea breeze. Make sure to head to cozy accommodations near Oslob. Trust me, you’ll need a good night’s sleep for what’s coming on Day 2.
Day 2: Into Cebu's Water Wonders

If marine magic is what you're looking for, Day 2 starts with an early morning whale-shark interaction in Oslob. Those gentle giants are as fascinating as they are enormous. Don't worry though—guides are there to ensure everything runs smoothly, and they'll even help you get those underwater shots that'll wow your friends back home.

Once you've had your fun swimming with whale sharks, the adventure takes you to Sumilon Island. The sandbars there are straight out of a travel magazine, with white sand blending in with the crystal clear waters. Here, you want to take your time to soak in the breathtaking beauty of the surroundings, dip your toes in the water, or simply lounge by the beach.

In the afternoon, you would be off to Aguinid Falls in Samboan. This is not your typical waterfall—it's a series of cascading waterfalls that you can climb and explore, with natural pools perfect for swimming in. This place is like entering a different world, whether you're climbing rocks, wading through shallow pools, or simply taking in the view.
Day 3: Thrills and the Island Chills

The final day kicks things up a notch! Prepare for an adrenaline-pumped activity as you go canyoneering in Badian. Picture yourself jumping off cliffs (over 50 feet high!), sliding down natural rock slides, and navigating through the rivers. It's the kind of adventure that sends your heart racing but leaves you feeling unstoppable.

After all that excitement, you get to relax with an island-hopping tour in Moalboal. What's the highlight? Witnessing the captivating sardine run. Imagine hundreds of sardines swimming through the crystal-clear blue waters in perfect unison. It's a breathtaking sight that feels almost surreal.
Day 3 is the perfect way to say goodbye to Cebu—sand between your toes and a heart full of cherished memories.
