Car and driver for sightseeing in Cebu

[OnMyWay]

Any recommendations for a car and driver for Cebu sightseeing next week?  I decide not to do self drive as we only need it for 2 days of sightseeing, and it is a lot more efficient to have a driver at the popular places.

I looked at the taxi thread and that info is dated.

What type of car is a Ciara?  I just googled and found nothing.  We are 5; 2 adults, 1 teenager and 2 small kids.  My wife and 3 kids can fit in the back of a small car, but I don't want it to be too small.

Bigger than I've got. You will need a van to get everyone around.

Actually a Vios has worked for us.  The 3 year old sits on mom's lap.  However I would prefer a van.

Just back from Cebu today.  I did not need to rent a car or car with driver because my wife's cousin and her hubby "T" insisted on taking us all over the place!  Very nice of them!  We used taxi's 3 or 4 times.

I'm glad I did not rent a car.  It would have been very hard to find my way around.  T knows the city and Mactan well enough.

There are definitely benefits to just hiring a driver.  Last year I took my wife's family on a distant vacation from Manila to the provinces, ten total with my wife and I.  Hired a driver with a late model Toyota 11 passenger van for five days, one price, which included a flat fee for the driver's food and lodging: $500 plus gas.  He drove us around morning, afternoon and evening every day to all the sites we wanted to see.  You couldn't touch that in the US or Europe!  Unfortunately I don't know any drivers in the Cebu area.
