Loboc River Cruise



The Loboc River in Bohol passes through Barangay Bool, where you can see the Sandugo Monument, and Baclayon, which has one of the nicest old churches in Bohol, and a small museum with old church relics. If you look at your right hand side while driving to Baclayon, you can also see a very big Balite tree.

As the boat takes of, the buffet begins. On the middle table all kinds of Philippine delicacies are presented, and while eating, you can enjoy the lush green landscape slowly sliding along your table. The small outboard engine works hard to move the vessel against the current. Life along the river side goes on as it must have done for centuries, with children swimming, people passing by in small bankas or canoes. On certain points along the trip, daring kids climb in a large coconut tree overhanging the river, and jump in the water very close to the floating restaurant.
