5.00My group of 7 took this tour during an afternoon/overnight layover in Manila at the end of a dive trip to the Philippines, and every one of us was so glad we did. It was the perfect way to see the highlights of the city and learn more about the country's history and culture. Each of the tour stops was very interesting, and we had just enough time at each one to explore. Omar was our guide, and he did an amazing job wrangling our rowdy group and answering all our questions along the way. I especially liked how he talked us through the history and significance of each stop in the van on the way there and then gave us time to wander independently once we arrived -- it felt like very efficient use of time and a nice balance between guided and free time. I highly recommend this tour to anyone with a few hours to spare in Manila. It provides wonderful context for experiencing other parts of the country.
Reasonable

4.00The tour was good, the guide was knowledgeable, but my airport pick-up was 15 minutes late. I also had the misfortune of being paired up with a group from Bangladesh who wouldn’t shut up so during the entire experience I was either listening to the guide telling about Manila or listening to the guy from Bangladesh voice his opinions loudly. But overall it was a pleasant afternoon
Great tour

5.00We had half a day to kill between flights, 1.30 pick up from Grand Hotel, Mataki City & this tour filled the spot perfectly. Quick trip around some of the new & historical sites, with an exceptionally knowledgeable guide. Even paced, mostly driven, some easy walking.

5.00Our 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.
Excellent discovery of Manila
