Aguinid Falls, Samboan Cebu Sept 2015


Right after our stay in Moalboal, we went straight to the town of Samboan to chase some waterfalls! ;)

HOW TO GET HERE:
1. From Moalboal, we rode a bus going to Samboan (P140, one way)
-travel time was an hour and 30 minutes
2. Tell the conductor to drop you off at Aguinid Falls
-the path going to Aguinid is just by the highway so it's very convenient
3. You will see a signage for Aguinid; just walk straight and you'll see the main entrance to the falls (pic above)

There's an entrance fee of P20 (Filipinos) and P40 (Foreigners)
tip for the tour guide would be up to you 
~ps: pls don't be stingy lol :) 



What amazes me about Aguinid is that it contains 7 levels/tiers of  waterfalls.
So be prepared to do some rock climbing, hiking and trekking going to the top!




I can't remember well but I think it took us an hour to reach level 5. (The guide said level 6 & 7 are a bit dangerous to climb)
It really depends on how fast you walk/climb and how long you spend your time taking photos on each level lol




I highly recommend you come early though. The place is getting popular among tourists and it's not a good sight to see other people photobombing your beautiful pics with mother nature =P
In our case, we arrived at 8am on a weekday and we were the first ones to arrive! lucky us <3




Also, bring some waterproof cases for your gadgets or better yet, bring a waterproof camera so you could easily take some snaps! 
And don't rely too much on the guide with your photos.
In our experience, I gave my camera and phone to the guide so she could easily take our pics...
 but to my dismay, a lot were blurred and some were zoomed too much! =/
Ugh never again (!) so yea, just remember I warned you...




I think climbing this huge rock was the biggest challenge we had!



But all is well once you reach the top!



Taken at the 3rd level
Here's a video of the falls <3

Our jacuzzi is better than yours lol =P



Finally, level 5!
Soooooo beautiful! and it's all to ourselves! nyahaha

even at the very end, you still need to do a lil bit of climbing lol



happy couple <3



One of the best falls ever!
