      Fun day exploring Manila and it's history

      kate_p, Mar 2026
      This was a very nice tour to take solo. Other travelers were also solo and it made for a fun day with new friends. Our guide was very informative and made us feel very comfortable. I felt like we got a real view of life in Manila, and not just touristy stops. I'm glad I purchased a bottle of water in advance, but there was opportunity during the tour to buy water.

      Great overview with lots of fun snacks

      Clare_P, Mar 2026
      Our tour began at the meeting place statue across the street from the "mall." We met our tour guide, Venus, there along with another tour guide. If you can get in her group, do it. She was fantastic. She was knowledgeable about the area having grown up there. The slum area was sad but it is what it is. We just drove through the wet market usingg one of several methods of transportation we tried in the tour. Then we saw the Chinatown and the switched tour guides and saw the Intermodel area, church, dungeon and more. During the first part of the tour with Venus, we stopped for the most delicious dim sum I have ever had, fresh lemonade, baked goods, and locally brewed beer. It was a very bank for your buck tour.

      This was a fantastic day, I happened to be the only person and got a one on one tour with Felix, he was so knowledgeable, easy going, personable. This was a fantasy way to get to see the city if you can’t do a full day. I fully recommend this tour it was great fun. Felix made it a 10 out of 10!!
