I went on the 3-4 hour Boracay Island Hopping Joiner. It was advertised for 650 php per person. When I first contacted them, they said that the meet up was at Station 1 Astoria between 8:00 and 8:30 and that they would send the name of the coordinator to me that night. The next morning, no name of coordinator. We went to Astoria at 8:00, no coordinator. I finally got a text message from the coordinator saying that he will meet us around 8:30. Fine. This gave us a chance to eat breakfast. Back in Astoria at 8:30. No coordinator. I was then told that he will be late because the coordinator for Station 3 did not show up, so he had to put those people on a boat and then come to us. By the time he got to us, it was 8:45. It was already hot! I was wet from all the sweat. The itinerary really wasn't an Island Hopping itinerary. The first destination was Puka Beach, which is not an island. It is the beach on the northern tip of Boracay. Anyone can get there via e-trike. AND there's nothing special about Puka Beach. They brag about the white sand beach, but white beach has miles of this. Puka Beach is where I left the tour because the heat caused me to feel sick from dehydration. But my friend stayed with the tour. Two snorkeling areas should have followed. The first was off of Ilig-Iligan Beach, which is, again, not an island but one of several beaches on the eastern side of Boracay. The other is Crocodile Island. According to my companion, there was only one snorkeling opportunity (off of Ilig-Iligan Beach) and they were just shown Crocodile Island. My companion also said they charged 40 php extra for use of goggles. Then came the buffet lunch. After finding 3 worms in the vinegar, my companion lost his appetite. Finally to Crystal Cove, an island, but he had to pay to enter the island. According to my companion, only 3 people went to Crystal Cove, the rest stayed on the boat and wasn't allowed to get off the boat to go swimming! Tour over.

The place is really good for relaxation from the busy atmosphere of Metro Manila. We had a nice view from the place so overall experience is exceptional however, I would like to give a suggestion. Probably you can create a website or an online reservation page so it can be easier for your clients to access or reserve their slot in your place because I, personally will recommend your place for giving us an extraordinary and rejuvenating experience! Again, experience is very good. We will definitely come back in your place and recommend it. Thanks.

It’s a disaster since the beginning. I’ve emailed to confirm my booking n pick up time at station 3 a few days before . But I waited until the pick up time, no one showed up, so the hotel helped us to call. End up we have to walk n find the meeting point by ourselves. And then we found the “guide” who then guided us to another guide n group into a group with over 30 ppl..... It’s a boat trip only with two snorkeling sessions at places nearby... we went to PUKA beach. And then lunch at an isolated island. We were left behind! We stayed at the restaurant for the whole time! We managed to find the guide (he didn’t leave with the big group fortunately!? ). He then put us into another group again... with no explanation or what to do next, just asked us to follow another guide. Not sure if it’s the problem of Shingley (< the tour this agent put us into) , this agent or the tour guide.

Found boarding time and “place to meet” on their website but since I was not in stations, they would not pick me up and did not make it clear enough where to meet so I searched all of white beach path from 9:30-11 to no avail. Honestly kind of a scam, would recommend to others save your money as you will be offered by everyone on White Beach and they will help you unlike this company.

I booked this tour well in advance, and initially had great correspondence from the owner Joy. The trip was set for 8 hours and was to start at 07.00. The trip started at 10.00 (I was left waiting and wondering what was happening even though I sent messages and emails from 07.00) at just after 09.00 I was told someone was on there way. The guys that took the tour were brilliant, lovely well mannered and helpful guys. However, the was no water provided (even though it stated there would be and I confirmed this with the boss Joy via message prior to the trip) the Seafood Lunch turned out to be 2 baby bananas at around 2 o'clock and a further 2 baby bananas at 5.30. I bought drinking water for myself and the 3 guys that rode with me. I was promised a refund which as of yet I haven't received or had any formal notice of being in process. When Joy finally made contact with me she attempted to turn the tables and put the blame in me as I had not purchased a local Sim and telephone her representative. I had told Joy prior to the tour that I was not going to by a Sim, I had also provided ger with my full name and that if my hotel which she asked for so her contact who lives in Boracay Island (which is only 6klm long) could drop some gloves of to me. When I asked the mewt point I was also told that this guy would arrange it as he was on the island. The your was very over priced from the start, I broached this with Joy before leaving the uK, she said that I should not cancel as she would reimburse me when I arrived (not happened) Finally I feel very sorry for the guys as they are great and some everything yo help and were just real nice people. However, the owner is an u scrupious fraudulent money grabber that I hope I never have to have anything else to do with.

We visited famous kawa hot bath in Tibiao antique since we are also in the province to attend an occassion. It is almost 1.5hr travel from Sibalom antique and maybe 3-3.5 hrs from ilo ilo. The Kawa Hot Bath we choose is the one recommended by the driver see pictures. The place looks like private resort to us because we visited on a weekday and we are the only tourist to try the said attraction. The kawa baths were facing the cleanest river as they claim the tibiao river that makes it more relaxing. You have to pay 350/person for the experience itself and you can stay in the kawa as long as you want. But if they have other customer then the maximum is 45 mins. They have flowers, ginger on the kawa hotbath which makes it fragrant and more relaxing. This experience is worth to try specially if you want to relax your tired muscles from the transportation or from hiking :)

Took the private boat to do the island hopping and enjoyed it .Got to visit the different places and snorkelled ect.Better than doing the longer tour.

We did the island hopping tour grouch abettor tours and our guide was Erwin Consulta. If you get this tour, ask for Erwin he was absolutely fantastic. Although there was about 30 people on our boat, he stayed with our group of eight for the whole day. He was extremely informative about where we were going and for how long. He would provide plenty of information about the Philippines and islands and was extremely helpful and fun with the kids. Although a bit of a long day with smaller kids (3 years and 6 years) it was well worth it and Erwin made it very enjoyable. He provided a private tour for us around Crystal Cove so we knew exactly where we were going and how long we had to return. If you choose this tour, I would definitely request to have Erwin :)

We had a great island hopping experience with Boracay Abettor. Plus, it’s great we were able to get a cheaper rate for it (800php/pax). BUT...do the tours really not include a tour guide? We were expecting somebody to guide and brief us during the tours.

Joined this tour, the tour was designed for 5-6 hours. So We had to rush from one to another. the Crystal Cove was great, but didnt have enough time for exploring the island. A part of our group went on their own and didnt get back on time. So we had to wait for one hour (more) on the boat while the tour guide was searching for them!!! You may have a better price if U can bargain with local ppl who.

We bought a trip off a local hawker.... 1200 each... plus , plus, plus....!!! 200 per person sea tax... 350 to hire fins and snorkel.... 100 each to enter crystal cove... 40 each to the guy where you snorkel.... The good thing is you can decide how much time you want to spend at each place.... if in a group, you have to go with there schedule.... we went early... first boat to crystal cove... when we were leaving there were 5 boats with about 40 on each arriving.... snorkelling spot ok.... it's not the Great Barrier Reef..... puka beach is beautiful.... Look it's something that everyone will do so make of it what you can.... go on a sunny day for the snorkelling.....

I sent a query regarding their package for water activities namely, parasailing, helmet dive and Island hopping. They gave me a good package saving a thousand bucks. On our first day, we did the helmet dive and parasailing. I got sea sick due to the weather and our guide, kuya Erwin was so kind to offer that we'll be dropped off to station 1 near our hotel so I can get some rest. The next day was supposed to be the Island hopping however due to the typhoon, it was cancelled and they gave us back our payment and assisted us to do a DIY land tour going to Puka beach. thank you, Ms. Joy and Kuya Erwin for giving us a worth the budget Boracay tour! :)
