Unforgettable Manila: Intramuros & Fort Santiago Secrets

Stella was very knowledgable and friendly. She gave us more than enough time at each stop to take photos, learn about the history, and explore on our own. We would definitely recommend this tour to get acclimated to Manila and general Filipino history!

Excellent tour and had very knowledgeable guide.The tour was about the right amount in duration. Highly recommend

Far too expensive for what you get. Essentially you get a van ride to the American Cemetery and then to Intramuros (short walk to Fort Santiago) and then back to hotel. We two paid $120; if we took Grab, it would be $20 for all three legs of the trip. The guide was nice and attentive, but the trip itself does not offer good value. I cannot recommend this trip.

Willy's efficient driving and Richard's detailed explanations throughout the tour made this afternoon both productive and illuminating. Connecting through the city for just a day, this tour gave us an excellent introduction to Manila's top attractions, culture, and history. Richard has a nice way of providing both broad, overreaching explanations and minute detail, and there were no questions we asked that he couldn't answer with interesting minutiae, candor, compassion, and wit.

The tour of Old and new Manila was very interesting, especially Intramouros. Unfortunately the traffic on Friday afternoon was very bad which delayed the tour, but this is not a reflection on the tour company.

Interesting. Spent half of the time in traffic congestions. Good mixture of aspects of history, modern developements.

10/10! Eric and Henry were so great! Eric the tour guide was so informative, passionate, and really fulfilled our purpose of learning to much about the culture and history!! We went to six amazing sights. I definitely recommend this tour for everyone visiting Manila!!

We did the Manila Old and New tour and really enjoyed it. We weren’t staying at one of the listed pickup hotels, so we made our own way into the city to meet the group, which was straightforward and worth it. The guide arrived right on time and the group ended up being just five of us, which made it feel relaxed and semi-private rather than crowded. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and explained the historical sites in a way that was easy to follow and engaging. It’s a solid introduction to Filipino history and a good overview if it’s your first time visiting Manila. I’d recommend it for anyone wanting context and background, not just sightseeing. One of the churches was closed due to renovations.

Our guide was very knowledgeable. He told us so much information on the drive to our destinations. Very good.

Tour was in an air conditioned van, driver was impressive with knowledge of streets which was congested, but maintained comfort, Nori our tour guide was impressive with his knowledge of every part of the sites our tour covered. My family learned so much about history and culture of Filipinos in Manila
