Pay a short visit to Baclayon Church made from coral stone cut from the sea by a workforce of over 200 laborers, still retains its centuries old architectural design and is considered the best preserved in the region despite being one of the oldest. See and be amazed with the tarsier, the world’s smallest monkey, in the Tarsier Sanctuary. While at it, don’t miss the chance to meet Carlito Pizzaras dubbed as the “Tarsier Man”. For lunch, proceed with Loboc River Cruise with Filipino-style lunch on board a floating restaurant.

A leisurely drive will take guests through scenic countryside of thick nipa palms, coconut plantations and mahogany forest going to the town of Carmen. Go up to the highest point to view the Chocolate Hills, consisting of 1,268 haycock hills with heights ranging from 40-120 meters. During the summer, the dome-shaped grass-covered limestone hills dry up and turn brown transforming the area into rows and rows of chocolate “kisses”.
