Visiting Dumaguete or Dauin for the first time and want a relaxed, stress-free way to explore? Message me. Note on pricing: The price shown is for your entire private group, not per person. For groups of four, it works out to about 3,000 pesos per person for a full-day private experience. This flexible nature tour is designed especially for first-time visitors, balikbayans, couples, and mixed-ability groups who want clear English communication, comfort, and no rushing. Guests also book my Dumaguete Food Tour, based on my most-requested food recommendations. Hi! I’m James, an American guide living in the Philippines since 2019. I’ll plan the day around your pace and interests — from easy walks to optional light hikes or swimming. What we’ll do: • I’ll pick you up in an air-conditioned Hyundai Tucson SUV, complete with sun and moonroof for your viewing enjoyment! • All tours have a basic itinerary, but are fully customizable based on your interests!

Filipino food rewards the curious, but it isn’t always easy for newcomers to know where to start. Some of the best dishes aren’t the most obvious ones, and they’re often overlooked. This tour is relaxed and flexible, and along the way I will be sharing historical and cultural context to the many influences that shape Filipino cuisine, from indigenous roots to Spanish and modern influences. After years in the Los Angeles food scene and now living full-time in the Philippines, I help my guests bridge cultural and taste gaps so they can experience Filipino food with confidence. This activity can also be offered as a private tour for solo guests or groups for an additional fee.
