We were there at around 3pm. It was a drizzling rain and gloomy. We saw five individual tarsiers, all sleeping under the leaves. It was a quick tour for about $3. The hustle and bustle at the parking… Full review by M H

Clean park, but expensive. You can see about 8 tarsiers that are supposed to be rescued, but tarsiers are not endangered on Bohol island. They live very well in the forest , far from humans. It looks… Full review by Stephanie10110
Easiest would be to rent a scooter and head there, about an easy 30 min ride. Combine that with Chocolate hills, Bohol and Man made forests, you can spend a day.
Is the Tarsiere and Chocolate hills are located in Tagbilaran?

Both sights you mentioned are in Bohol. The tarsier sancturary is not that far away from Tagbilaran (20-25 minutes?), but you will have to hire a driver to take you there anyway. Chocolate Hills are little further into the centre of the island, so the drive (by car, not tricycle!) can take about 45 minutes to 1 hour. We hired a driver and paid him to be our guide for the whole day. Went to see tarsier first, then straight to Chocolate Hills. We stopped at some other locations on the way back (man-made forrest + one little zoo with giant snakes and butterflies). We managed to do all that in about 5 or 6 hours.
Hi there We are going on a dive trip in Cebu island. How can we get to your sanctuary? Is it possibly to hire a private ferry? If so, how long would t take? Thanks Emma

There are several ferry companies that run between Cebu and Bohol. I used the SuperCat ferry that runs three times per day, each way (nice, comfortable fast ferry). The journey takes 2 hours to the Tagbilaran ferry port. You could potentially visit Bohol as a day trip. The earliest SuperCat ferry to depart Cebu is at 8.45am (arriving 10.45am) and the last ferry to depart Tagbilaran is at 5.25pm. But that would result in a rushed tour of Bohol. You'd be better to include a one-night stay in Tagbilaran. Or, if you prefer a more touristy, beach location, select a hotel near the beach on Panglao Island, just a few km from Tagbilaran. As has already been noted, the Tarsier Sanctuary is an interesting visit, but not worth a long ferry ride just to see that one attraction. Much better to book a full-day taxi tour that will also include the Chocolate Hills and some of the other attractions. Hope this helps.
Hi. We are going to visit your sanctuary tomorrow. As the tarsiers are night animals, is it better to visit in the morning or afternoon? We would appreciate quick answer;)

Yes, you can take the ferry from Cebu port to Tagbilaran. Use the Ferry schedule. on the internet .bohol.ph/article107.html Once In Tagbilaran, ask for tourist information regarding visits to attractions in Bohol, like this, Chocolate hills etc. Most hotels will know if vendors offering these day trips. I stayed in Alona beach, and the fare was about 45PHP group van to many attractions + entrance fees.
