Precise Pickup.
The company forwarded the directions to the airport pickup location the day before, which provided time to review them. I was surprised to receive another text from the company after arrival offering further assistance to the pickup location. The initial instructions were precise and clear so further assistance was not necessary. The driver arrived on time and was pleasant and helpful. Very smooth pickup and drop off at the hotel.

Josh Rocks!!!
This was a fairly easy bike ride around various historical spots within the walled city. Our guide, Josh, was excellent in displaying to us, on his iPad, the various stages of destruction and rebuilding which occurred during certain wars and reigns of Britain, the Spanish, Japan and the USA. The day was fully enjoyed by those of us in our small group of five. Josh communicates well in English and the tour was more than ample time to see the sights and get a good understanding.

Best tour yet with John and Kyle
What a fabulous tour with John and Kyle! It’s the best time to tour because it’s cooler, less crowded and the lights are spectacular! The water fountain show was fantastic. We loved the pictures John provided to show the before and after of the city. John showed us all the important spots! Highly recommend this tour!

I enjoyed the walking...
Our Guide (Bernardo) was great!! He shared plenty of historical information but also inquired about the guests & where they were from. I really appreciated seeing the Manila American Cemetery and Memorial Site. I enjoyed the walking tour (Fort Santiago)
but it seemed others did not anticipate the amount of walking.
Not sure if it was displayed in the tour information.

One of the best food tours! Do not miss!
What a fantastic experience! Chloe led us on a culinary adventure taking us through a vast array of Filipino treasures and exciting dishes. Savory, sweet, smoky, grilled, fried, fresh, cold, hot. All were experienced within a 3-hour tour. I've been on a number of food tours and this was one of the best. But please come hungry. There is a lot of food to sample, and I feel so much more knowledgeable about the history and pride of Filipino food, and I encourage you all to consider this tour. You won't be disappointed.

Fish a plenty
This was a last minute decision for a tour and turned out to be a “should’ve booked it” tour! Team was great with communications, updates and transfers back and forth. The fish were bountiful and had a great opportunity to see “Nemo” as well as swim with a large school of Jacks. I would recommend this tour to any one looking to get wet in the Philippines.

How Villa Escudero came...
Marco, the tour guide was awesome. He was knowledgeable. He educated us on How Villa Escudero came about, the collections from religious items to other artifacts, and of course, the dining experience with your feet in the water and the waterfalls in the background. Staff were all courteous, kind, and made sure that guests have the best experience ever. After lunch, wait for the cultural show. Costumes were beautiful, dancers were all awesome, and the rondalla group were amazing. Overall, me and my family loved the experience.

View from the top.
Nice 10 hr tour to Tagaytay mostly spent on the road with our expert driver/navigator, Ryan, with Mark as our guide. Our small group boarded the van as strangers but departed as friends. The Manila smog combined with the volcanic steam obscured our panoramic view from the People's Park in the Sky. The tour was topped off with an Intramuros tour. Mark's knowledge of Philippine history makes you wonder why he isn't in academia.

Tagatay
We had a lovely half day tour to Tahaytay. Our guides Claude and Bella were so friendly and helpful. They also offered a lot of information about the areas we went to. Thank you also to our driver Marlon. His skills were amazing while maintaining a cheerful attitude.
Thank you once again.

As a Filipino-American,...
As a Filipino-American, I’ve been interested in learning more about Filipino history. Since we had a few days in Manila, this was the perfect opportunity to see things up close. We love that this company picks you up from your hotel. We had requested Andrei to be our guide again, as he was our guide to Tagaytay the day before. It was a rainy day, but he made sure we were equipped with umbrellas and took the walking at a comfortable pace. We learned a lot & were happy that we chose this tour.

Andrei with Yolo Travel...
Andrei with Yolo Travel was so friendly and very communicative. The drive was comfortable and he gave plenty of information about the excursion and surrounding area. He helped make our visit a very memorable one even by taking pictures of us and with us. I highly recommend!

Great excursion. I highly recommend. Make sure to read all the details!
Great excursion. I highly recommend. Make sure to read the details, and know that getting to the waterfall is quite an ordeal. It was awesome, but we had no idea that you get taken in a canoe up the river to get there, take full note of the restrictions. They'll also ask you some extra info about the group going to that they can plan the right team to take you up there, the two boat guides work really hard to get you to that waterfall, be ready with some tip money! There will also be a stop along the way for snacks on the side of the river, and they will encourage you buy lunch for the boat guides. Make sure to have cash in local currency, many places did not take card payments.

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Located in Luzon, the largest island in the Philippines' 7,000-island archipelago, Manila is within easy reach of a wealth of natural wonders. Guided Manila day trips make escaping the hustle and bustle of the metropolis so much easier, bringing you to active volcanoes, coconut estates, crater lakes, refreshing waterfalls, and more—all without spending hours on end researching, planning, and arranging. And letting someone else take the wheel means you can skip the stress of traffic jams and sit back and soak up the scenery instead.
