Hazel - Tour Guide in Cebu City

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.

Hazel es encantadora!!! Estuvimos con ella 3 horas y nos enseñó muchas cosas de la cultura filipina, además de darnos consejos sobre la ruta por el resto del país y enseñarnos la ciudad (no tiene mucho que ver pero con ella fue muy especial). Ojalá volvamos a coincidir con ella! _----------------- Hazel is lovely!!! We were with her for 3 hours and she taught us many things about the Philippine culture, besides giving us tips on the route through the rest of the country and showing us the city (not much to see but with her it was very special). Hopefully we will meet her again!

Honestly the best way to visit Cebu city and to find some interesting places. We really appreciated the Carbon Market visit and the food tasting. Hazel was amazing and so kind. She really wanted us to appreciate the tour. It was supposed to last 3 hours and we went on for more than 4 hours… she was really generous of her time. She is also very passionate when she explains the history of the city.

Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m truly touched. 🥹 It was such a joy showing you around Cebu and sharing a bit of the city’s soul—from the colorful chaos of Carbon Market to all those delicious food stops! I’m so glad you appreciated it all. Honestly, I didn’t even notice the time—we were just enjoying the moment and the stories too much! 😄 Thank you for being so engaged and curious throughout the tour. You made it easy for me to share what I love. Hope our paths cross again someday! 🌺

Hello Saurabh! Thank you so much for your wonderful review! I truly enjoyed spending the day with you and sharing not only our local food and history but also those little cultural moments we found in common. It’s always special to discover how our cultures connect, and I’m glad there’s still so much more of the Philippines I can share with you next time—especially the parts that make our country unique. Wishing you safe travels, and I hope our paths cross again soon!

Hazel was a wonderful tour guide. Since it was only my husband and I who were in the tour she was able to adjust the itinerary based on our limitations. She gave us her full attention, answered our questions, shared local tips, and took our pictures. She was very knowledgeable about the sites. We appreciated her enthusiasm and felt her pride for her Cebu heritage. Thank you Hazel for a great tour!!!

Response from Hazel

Your genuine curiosity and interest made it easy for me to share Cebu’s history and culture with pride. Thank you again for joining the walk—and for allowing me to be part of your Cebu visit! Wishing you more wonderful adventures ahead! 🌿✨
