Loboc River Cruise
This is a must experience when you visit Bohol, Philippines. One of the famous attraction I can recommended is the Loboc River Cruise. There are a number of floating restaurants moored by the river here and the idea is that, once aboard, you eat your meal of mainly Filipino cuisine while the boat takes a tour up and down the river. This is a very relaxing experience. #itsmorefuninthephilippines #summervacation #deliciousfood

Floating restaurant in Bohol
A must-do in Bohol. Have lunch while cruising through the scenic mangroves of the Loboc River. The tasty buffet offers local fare that is great value for money. Travelers are serenaded by pleasant live music and folk dances during the trip. Don’t be surprised to catch local children climbing palm trees and jumping into the water next to your boat! And don’t worry – the river is very clean. TI was able to experience it and it has nothing but Amazing! #urbanexplorer #summervacation

Amore Cruise ❤️
It is never a compete Bohol experience if you don’t get the chance to try cruising along the Loboc River. Indeed, the highlight of out trip.
It wasn’t actually my first time to try this but experiencing it again felt like it was a first for me. Bohol never fails to amazes me with their luacious greeney and the warmtg of their people.
Definitely the price per person went up as compared to when we first came. They are a bit pricey now, from 400++ to 800++. Not bad for the food and the experience and also the first price was way before pandemic, maybe almost 10 years ago! 😅
This experience is definitely worth-trying! Don’t miss exploring Bohol on a cruise! 😌

Loboc River
Loboc River is truly enchanting. A spring just beside the river keeps fresh water flowing. Perfect for warm summer days!

We have lunch on the cruise ship on the Lobo River, the only freshwater river flowing through Bohol, with dense vegetation on both sides, pristine tropical scenery and mysterious jungle animals in the depths of the jungle, and the Oriental Amazon River. The name is.
Sitting on the boat, there are scenery and music. The scorpion of the boat band is very good. The singers are basically old Chinese songs (yes, Chinese). It sounds very comfortable. Every time I raise the camera, he will I am more than heart, look at such a serious part, I finally contributed a tip ~
scenery is good, the big boat slowly walking through the river, will bring some wind to drive the tropical cool, although after a while Aesthetic fatigue, but still a good experience.
Whether the local people are playing on the banks of the river, they will interact with the people on board and swing high in the fall. It is really a joy from the hearts of Southeast Asians!
In addition to the onboard service, we will also stop at the edge of a grass house on the bank of the river. Inside are locals dressed in traditional costumes. They will perform dances and invite everyone to dance. According to my observation, every ship passing by here will stop, so some people are already tired of it. When they look forced to open their business, this young lady is the most joyful one I have found, and there is something like Ouyang Nana. !
After the jump, they will hold a tip box and wait for everyone to throw a tip. It is also very cute~

Boating on the Lobo River, you can enjoy the delicious buffet on the boat while watching the original forest on both sides of the river, accompanied by guitarists. The boat departs from the start of the buffet and has a free drink. Boating Lobo River, tickets 50, lunch 300. Ten minutes later, I arrived at a shore with an indigenous performance. They will take the initiative to bring you a straw hat and take a photo! I remember to give a tip after the photo was taken, I gave 100p. The entire journey is about half an hour. z
