    Our guides were very good and tailored our food tastings according to what we wanted to experience. A very good view of Chinatown. I would recommend this trip to others. If you want a different cultural experience, then this is for you.

    Tour guide seemed unorganized, we were given impression not taken to all restaurants on their circuit. Told to share servings even though paid full price for 3 adults. Would only take a group tour next time it wasn’t worth the extra cost.

    My favorite part of Manila!

    Lots of food and lots of fun! Come hungry and with good walking shoes. You will not be disappointed.

    Awesome Tour to Try a Lot of Great Food & Learn About the City History!

    Kyle, our driver, and Mark, our guide, were both spectacular! Mark took the time to answer our questions, and customized the tour to hit the specific things that were most important to us. 5* Highly Recommend!!!

    Great food, great guide and great driver

    Make sure when you come on this tour you have to be very hungry because the food is very plentiful and make sure you have sturdy walking shoes . After the first four stops, we were so full we could hardly eat anything else, but the next six stops we just tasted a little bit of each type of food that was served, we love the street food in Manila

    Fun and Delicious!

    Host Mark and driver Pedro are very pleasant and knowledgeable. The street market and Chinatown was an excellent experience after watching it for so long on You-Tube. Interacting with the locals is something I’ll never forget. Thank you so much for the memories.

    Yummy - Recommended
