The essential trip to Bohol would not be complete without having at least these items:
tarsier-sightings, viewing the
Chocolate Hills, and going on the Loboc River Cruise.
Our cruise started from Loboc town. One can also have as jump-off point Loay Bridge. A group of around twenty can charter a floating restaurant with lunch or dinner served buffet-style, with a singer serenading the passengers throughout the hour-long trip.
The people of Loboc are a a musical lot, the town being known as the musical capital of Bohol, and its Children's Choir is quite renowned, with wins both here and abroad. Our guide told us that many in Loboc are either singers or adept in musical instruments, or both.
