Hi, I’m Chris, a passionate local guide from Cebu who loves sharing the city’s history, culture, and natural beauty with travelers. Alongside guiding, I’m also an online English teacher for Japanese learners, a role I continue to this day. In the past, I’ve taught elementary and high school students in the Philippines in subjects like math and religion, and I’ve also taught finance to Filipino families. These teaching experiences have strengthened my ability to explain ideas clearly, adapt to different learning styles, and connect with people from all walks of life. My love for hospitality comes from my silent but generous grandmother, who always welcomed relatives with food and kindness. Guiding has become another way for me to extend that same warmth—by sharing Cebu’s rich history, language, culture, and food with visitors. I enjoy creating personalized experiences that reveal the real Cebu beyond the usual tourist spots. With years of experience hosting guests from around the world, I ensure every tour is engaging, safe, and memorable. Whether it’s exploring historical landmarks, tasting local cuisine, or discovering hidden natural gems, I aim to make your Cebu adventure truly unforgettable.

Overview of your Cebu City tour

A traveling family from the Middle East visited Cebu for just a few days—but something happened that made them stay for two whole months. What could it have been? The answer is for you to discover, hidden in the streets, flavors, and secrets of the city… Join me on a walking and jeepney tour that uncovers Cebu’s rich history and vibrant culture. Stroll through lively markets, hop on a jeepney as locals shout “Sakay na!”, savor lechon or a simple salad like lato (sea grapes), and hear stories that will surprise you at every turn.
