Hi! I'm Hazel — a licensed and passionate tour guide with over 10 years of experience guiding both local and international travelers across the vibrant heart of Cebu and beyond. I’m not just here to walk you through places — I’m here to walk you through stories, flavors, and hidden corners that locals love and tourists often miss.
I specialize in customized, soulful walking tours that show you both the grit and the grace of Cebu. Whether it's the buzz of the Carbon Market, the untold tales of historic Colon Street, or the quiet spirit of the old Parian houses — I bring you beyond the brochure.
Why do I do this?
Because I believe in freedom — the freedom to express, to explore, to connect. I’ve spent years traveling solo, living off-grid, even dreaming of life in a campervan. I carry that same spirit into every tour I give: raw, real, and rooted in meaning. This isn’t your cookie-cutter walk — it’s an experience with soul.
If you’re the kind of traveler who’s curious, open-hearted, and looking for something more than surface-level, let’s walk.
Let’s discover Cebu not just as tourists — but as travelers, seekers, and storytellers.
Excellent personalized food tour in Cebu.
Our Guruwalk Cebu Food Walking Tour with Hazel was a meaningful highlight of our trip. Booking was easy, and Hazel immediately reached out, making it simple to coordinate and share our food preferences in advance — which was especially helpful as I’m Indian vegetarian. She thoughtfully adapted the tour for us. At one stop without a vegetarian option, she kindly brought a home-cooked vegetarian meal so I wouldn’t miss out. The pace was relaxed and was a private itinerary tailored just for us. Riding a jeepney like a local was a fun and authentic touch, adding to the immersive experience. Beyond the delicious Cebuano food, what truly stood out was the cultural exchange between India and the Philippines. Hazel shared wonderful insights into Cebu’s history and daily life, while also being genuinely curious about our culture. The conversations made the experience even more special. Hazel is kind, passionate, and deeply knowledgeable about her country. We left feeling full — not just from the food, but from the stories and shared experiences. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an authentic and culturally rich Cebu experience.
Il tour più originale a cui abbia partecipato! Hazel è stata bravissima fin dal primo momento a farci fare gruppo, si è preoccupata costantemente per noi, spiegandoci tradizioni Filippine, facendoci provare street food che un turista non arriverebbe nemmeno a conoscere. Un pomeriggio fantastico da cui esci arricchito, divertito e con la pancia piena! Il voto 10 è fin troppo poco. Siuuuuu 🫰💯🫶
A very Fun, interactive and informative tour. Hazel the host showed us some local spots which would be near impossible to find without her local expertise, she organised all dishes and activities and transport, making sure the whole tour ran smoothly. Hazel also treated us to a couple dishes in the final stop which was a really nice touch. I would highly recommend booking this tour
Awesome selections of food tastings and venues as well as a sprinkling of historical facts mixed in the tour. I had lots of fun on this tour with Hazel, highly recommended for anyone visiting Cebu.
