This is a great tour to learn about WW II at the American Cemetery, Jose Rizal at Rizal Park and the Spanish colonization in the walled city of Intramuros. A great introduction to Manila. Or tour guide was amazing. She was very knowledgeable and her English was impeccable.

Such an experience hard to explain have to be there in person. Which unfortunately we weren’t able to achieve.

Our tour guide Jonas was punctual and very attentive to us. He clearly loves being a guide for this city and it shows in his enthusiasm and depth of historical knowledge. At every turn there was a new fact or detail to learn; we were never bored!
Jonas was happy to customize the tour for us, so that we could experience Chinatown too - we had a few stops for snacks along the way, including fantastic fresh lumpia and fried siopao and of course hopias.
Overall a wonderful time and highly recommended!

An amazing experience overall; highly recommended. The best way to tour around Manila. We learnt a lot about the rich history and culture. Big shout out to our tour guide Jezzy, who was very knowledgeable and made the experience memorable. The tour group was very helpful and accommodating as well. Due to a change in travel plans, we had to reschedule our booking and they accommodated us with this seamlessly.

My tour guide was awesome!!! She was extremely knowledgeable and took the time to explain local history. She also made sure to give me plenty of time to do other things along the tour. Top marks!

Got to see highlights of the city but tour guide did not accompany us at any of the stops to explain what we were seeing. He either stayed on the bus or outside the site. Would had been much better if he had accompanied us at each of the spots and explained the sites. Traffic in the city made tour longer than it needed to be.
