Needs money spent to improve the whole facility. Tarsier sleep all day so not much to see. Steps require maintenance.

Amazing hospitality and experience overall, the people were so helpful, quite a drive but we have all the time in the world -- worth to visit. Learnt something new about tarsier and fascinated how too they look like and behave. I will definitely visit this place again .

Seeing the Tarsiers up close is such a wonderful experience!
It is a sanctuary so they are very respectable for the little creatures. If you have some spare money to give please donate.

This is the only place to see the Tarsier in nature.
It is in the jungle and you can see them very good.
But you don’t have time. The staff is pushing the tourists through the “garden”. They expect huge amount of tourists and from East Asia not allow to stay longer and watching the Tarsier

Beautiful little animals. All tourists said to us really enjoyed the viewing. They could improve sales or tourists items to include maybe coffee cups, t-shirts etc as items for sale are poor standard. The money made could be used for improving their protection

The guides were very helpful as it is not always easy to photograph these little tarsiers.
We had never seen one before so it was lovely to see them in their own environment.

This posed a must to see as this botanical garden accommodates tarsiers who cannot be seen elsewhere.

What is the best time of day to visit (during opening hours) to see the tarsiers?

I got there fairly late in the afternoon. several were awake. but it was an overcast day and the light was low. That may have had an effect.

Hello, was about an hour and half to Carmen - Chocolate Hills, so I will say one hour ride to Tarsier Conservation. We rented a little van for 4 of us and went to see both places in one day. I can ask my friend for price, but i'm sure it wasn't a lot.

Bohol Island can be circumnavigated in a day by car or van. If you really want to go to the Tarsier Sanctuary, you can do so at anytime wherever you are staying on the island.

How do we get there? we are a party of ten, so can we rent a van? is it friendly for one who needs a wheelchair?

Very friendly, and easy to hire a van. Wheelchair access to get up and close with the tarsiers isn't really an option though as you have to go through some bush tracks.
There are also lots of day tours you can take that include this stop if you want to see more of Bohol such as Chocolate Hills, etc. I used a company called Bohol Life, where we just paid for can hire and a driver for the day, but they can include a full tour guide if you want one.
