Cruising Loboc River

You should not  pass up a vacation in Bohol by not experiencing their famous river cruises...

Past 12:PM already when we headed down from the Chocolate Hills. Our tour package includes river cruise and dining via Rio Verde Floating Restaurant...Meals are pegged @Php  300 per person, eat all you can, authentic Filipino and Boholano dishes.


The floating restaurant is run by motor boats and can accommodate 20 people on-board at a time. The cruise ran for an hour along the Loboc-Loay river.





There are grilled seafoods, grilled meats, native delicacies and fresh fruits. I enjoyed their ginataang kuhol, shrimp, and the pork barbecue because the meat is so tender and the glaze is just exactly sweet. I heard that the seaweed is also good but i didn't try it. 
By the way, drinks are not inlcuded in the 300 peso  meal. You have to pay for the drinks separately.






Guests were being serenaded while eating.

 





Food taste great and the songs sung by the band was quite entertaining. 






Mingling with the ATIs
The floating resto stopped for a while in one of the ethnic villages. We jumped off the boat, to take pictures with them; and saw how's their village life. The Ati tribe contribute to the amusement of the tourist because of their suit and their exotic dance steps.

TIP: Picture-taking with them is free, but of course if you have a big heart, then you can give them any amount you preferred.
