- Having experienced Boracay local hopping tours twice, I recommend local hopping tours over Korean company tours because they offer the same activities but at a lower price and higher satisfaction.
- You can enjoy various activities such as snorkeling, kayaking, and paddle boating, and I especially recommend snorkeling because you can see beautiful coral reefs and colorful fish.
- Local hopping tours can be booked through Klook and cost 700 pesos as of May 2024.
Boracay Local Hopping Tour Recommendation: My Honest Review!
I've tried hopping tours with Korean companies before, but they only offered slightly better facilities and a slide, but otherwise, there's not much difference, so I recommend the local hopping tour.
Why?
The most important activity is to see the same Boracay sunset and snorkel in the same underwater area, so...ㅎㅎ
Korean hopping tour companies include snacks? The beer is cheap and not San Miguel, the ramen is not Shin Ramyun, and the fruits and snacks are just... they're not worth the price, really!
Also, I did a Korean tour before, and on top of the tour fee, they charged me extra for 'boatman helper manners tip + Crystal Cove entrance fee, 500 pesos per person'.
It's already expensive at $60 per person, but there are also extra costs, which made me really frustrated.
We went on two local hopping tours.
It was the same company, but we booked it in advance through Klook once, and the next day we wanted to snorkel again, so we went to Station 1 and negotiated with them (Turns out it was the same company ㅎㅎ).
It was 845 pesos on Klook, and we bargained down to 700 pesos.
We met in front of Astoria, Station 1 on White Beach, and boarded a boat with a pink kitty drawn on it.
The yacht isn't that great in terms of facilities, it's all scratched and stuff, but ㅎㅎㅎ
There's also a guy who plays guitar, and they have paddle boats and life jackets.
I first experienced the joy of snorkeling here.
Wow, seriously fun!!!!!!!!!!
The coral reefs are so beautiful,
The fluorescent blue fish are so beautifulㅜㅜ
How can it be so amazing that there's a world of colorful fish?
It's so amazing and so beautiful, I love it so much.
At first I didn't want to do it (I had a memory of snorkeling in Boracay before, my ears went numb and water went up my nose), but my boyfriend was so happy because I wouldn't come out of the water at allㅋㅋ.
I told you it was fun 😁.

Snorkeling
It felt like we snorkeled for about 1 hour and 30 minutes. During this time, you can eat the snacks you brought or go kayaking!
I enjoyed snorkeling.
I didn't know I could hold my breath this wellㅋㅋㅋ It's so fun.
ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I wouldn't come out of the water!
If you get tired of this, you can also try kayaking or paddle boating, but I tried it and almost drifted awayㅠㅠ.
If my boyfriend wasn't there, I would have disappeared into the sea.
Sunset
The sunset is beautiful in Boracay.
The sunset viewed from the deck of the boat after snorkeling was beautiful.
It was so beautiful that we even kissedㅋㅋㅋㅋ.
It wasn't the purple and pink color during the rainy season, but
It was beautiful enough to stare blankly at it and head back to the station!
We did it twice, but once there was no sunset at all, so we couldn't see it.
We just lay down and returnedㅋㅋㅋㅋ.
ㅋㅋㅋ There's no such thing as a lazy person in the world, I want to live this kind of life.
I was happy, I was happy.
That's why you travel, right?

Honest review compared to Korean hopping tours
Bozamussa $60 per person
This is a comparison.
I've tried this too, but I don't recommend it.
A local hopping tour that costs around 10,000 won per person is better.
It's a matter of personal preference!
Wouldn't it be safer to go with Koreans when you're there?
Wouldn't it be better to have better facilities?
Well.. It's a matter of personal preference, but honestly, for me, hopping is all about snorkeling and going out to the sea, so...
Just remember that the sea and the scenery are the same!
I want to go back again.
For reference,
This place goes to Crystal Cove and gives you mango and watermelon snacks.
They give you ramen.
They give you snacks.
They gave us beer and rum.
The difference was that they had a white slide.
The boat was white too!
The snorkeling and activities you can do in the sea are the same.
