Bohol Tours
Do you want to unwind? Are you itching
to spend a vacation away from the crowded Metro? Have yourself feel at ease? We
all know that when it comes to vacation destinations or tourist spots the
Philippines has a lot to offer. Baguio City, Tagaytay, Pagudpod, Ilocos Norte,
and Boracay are some of the finest tourist destinations in the country. Did you
try travelling in the southern part of the country? Let me give you a glance of
what a Bohol tour can offer.
Chocolate Hills
When we
talk about Bohol, the first thing that will come to our mind is the world-famed
Chocolate Hills. It is like the island’s trademark and one of the reasons why
Bohol is famous, not just in the Philippines but also recognized all over the
world. Geologically, Chocolate Hills consists of 1,268 cone-shaped hills that
encompass the municipality of Butuan, Carmen and Sagbayan, Bohol. Why do they
call it Chocolate Hills? Actually, those thousands of hills are covered in
green grass, but it turns to brown in the dry season; hence, why it is called
Chocolate Hills.

Where
can you find one of the smallest species of primates? It is in Bohol, of course,
and known as the tarsier. It measures about 4-5 inches, tarsiers are the
world's smallest primate. You can often spot these endangered species in the
South East Asia, especially here in the islands of the Philippines. Tarsiers
are the second best tourist attraction in Bohol next to the Chocolate Hills.
Panglao Beaches
It is
no secret that Boracay is the most coveted island in the Visayas region and in
the world. Yet the Panglao Island in Bohol is not out of the competition. In
fact, it has many beautiful beaches and one of the well known among them is the
Alona Beach. Located at the southwest part of the Panglao Island, its
mesmerizing white sand and crystalline blue ocean is one of the things your
eyes would not want to miss.
Kawasan and Camugao Falls
For the
hikers, campers and climbers, Kawasan and Camugao Falls are the must see and a
worthy exploration. Situated in the municipality of Balilihan, these two
stunning waterfalls are accessible by trail from the road network. Have a
rejuvenating experience with its fresh water pool and cascading falls.
Exploring
Bohol can be a bit expensive. That is why it is advisable to rent scooters or
motorcycles for your whole Bohol tour experience. You can visit www.islandriders.net for inquiries and information about Bohol motorcycle rentals
