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.
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.
Hazel did a beautiful job! She showed us around vibrant markets, picked out great food stalls, catered to our every wish and even went out of her way to extend the tour 2 hours longer. Great presentation, great food, incredible kindness by Hazel and every single person we met along the way. 10/10 would go again!
The tour far exceeded our expectations. As seasoned travelers we explore markets and neighborhoods and experiment with local street foods, but Hazel took us to the next level. She introduced us to foods we would not have tried on our own, gave us extensive history and context to the foods and cultures, took us to neighborhoods we wouldn’t have found on our own, and offered advice and suggestions for us for our travels beyond Cebu City. The range and amount of food surpassed expectations, and it was a fun and informative day with a small group (4) of like-minded foodie travelers. Overall it was a wonderful day and a great introduction to The Philippines
