At least six different species of whales shark (toothed and baleen) are also seen between March to June. The toothed whale sharks are reportedly sighted from February to November while the baleen whales are sighted from February to August.

Adventure travelers, look no further! Siquijor, best known to locals as an island shrouded in mystery and the supernatural, also boasts of undisturbed beaches and virgin forests. During the colonial period, the Spaniards referred to Siquijor as Isla del Fuego (Island of Fire) because of the luminescence produced by swarms of fireflies nestled among the foliage of molave trees. It will definitely be worth your while to discover what this quaint island has to offer!
You'll be picked up from your hotel in the morning, your island exploration begins with a quick stop at the St. Francis de Assisi Bell Tower and the St Vincent Bell Tower before heading up a hill to Triad Cafe for lunch.

Cathy has been wonderful and patient with the many questions and changes I have made during the course of our booking, I would highly recommend UME Travel.
The trip was awesome, one of the must do before death kind of visit. Swimming with a fish the size of a bus, opening its mouth toward you, is not a experience word can describe.
This 9 day tour is really worthwhile. Bohol countryside turned out to be beautiful with green, lush jungle, rice terraces and, of course, famous Chocolate Hills. Loboc River cruise was also a pleasant. Our guide June spoke excellent English and was informative and friendly. The car we used through the trip is a clean, comfortable and well air conditioned. Highly recommend!
Very well organised and convenient!
The tour that Carrie set up for us was perfect. The itinerary was flawless and our guides and drivers were so professional and helpful. It was truly a perfect experience. First class service.
Brilliant Company... Highly recommend them. 5* from start to finish
