We left our accommodation in Loboc, aiming to reach the Chocolate Hills by 6:00 a.m. We wanted to do this to avoid the possibility of large crowds and tour groups.

Why is it called Chocolate Hills?

As we stood there, taking in the view, it was hard to believe our eyes. Picture this: endless rolling hills, covered in grass, and looking like giant Hershey Kisses. Yes, you read that right! These hills are actually made of limestone, and during the dry season, they turn a rich brown, resembling a classic favorite chocolate treat.
