Bohol Loboc River Cruise with Buffet

A Bohol classic, the Loboc River cruise is a serene way to experience the island's lush tropical heart while enjoying a generous Filipino buffet lunch. You board a floating restaurant, essentially a bamboo-decked pontoon, and glide gently along the emerald-green Loboc River, framed on both sides by dense jungle, coconut palms, and overhanging foliage.

As you cruise, you tuck into a buffet spread of local dishes, from grilled fish and chicken to rice, vegetables, and tropical fruit, while live musicians serenade the table with Filipino folk songs and ballads. The boat usually pauses at a riverside cultural stop where local performers in traditional dress dance and play music on a floating platform.

Lasting around an hour and a half, the cruise reaches near the Busay Falls before turning back, offering picturesque views of village life along the riverbanks. Relaxing, scenic, and delicious, it is a highlight of any Bohol countryside itinerary and a favourite with families.
