Come along for a tour of Manila’s past and present. The tour starts right in the heart of the country’s financial center - the City of Makati. First stop is Nielsen’s Tower along Ayala Boulevard. Drive through Forbes Park, an exclusive residential enclave fittingly dubbed Millionaire’s Row on your way to our first stop – The American Cemetery and Memorial - reputed to be the largest and most beautiful of American memorials outside the Continental United States.
Then proceed to the old city of Manila via scenic Roxas Boulevard (also known as Dewey Boulevard in the recent past), passing through Luneta Park (also called Rizal Park in memory of the country’s national hero) on your way to the "Walled City" of Intramuros. Here you will see ancient walls, church ruins and other relics of the Spanish Conquistadores. Travel through the cobbled streets to San Agustin Church, the oldest stone church in the country.
Then we wrap the tour up with a visit to Fort Santiago, a Spanish fortress that watched over the entrance to Manila’s Pasig River. It was here that our national hero Dr. Jose Rizal spent his last days and where he wrote his famous "My Last Farewell."

Ferdinand was amazing. The amount of interesting information was great. his knowledge was great. well worth doing
My tour guide Omar and his driver where great. The trip itself feels rushed, but there is so much to see and do on this trip. You could spend a half day in any of the locations. Omar provided a running narrative as we drove from site to site and gave us some time to explore.
Excellent guide and driver. Communication was great and pick up on time. It was very interesting and I wouldn't have been able to get to everything we saw by myself in the time
Хорошая экскурсия, гид рассказывал много и интересно. Спасибо.
Bolo dobte. Dobry sofer aj sprievodca. Od manily som cakal trošku viac..ale inak OK.
Unser Guide war toll, sehr sympathisch, sprach gutes Englisch sodass wir fast alles sehr gut verstehen konnten. Preis-Leistung stimmte aber leider nicht. 50 Euro pro Person für ein bisschen Geschichte empfand ich als viel zu teuer, gerade für philippinische Verhältnisse. Ich hätte mir mehr Manila-Life gewünscht. Leider verstreicht zu viel kostbare Zeit der recht kurzen Tour durch das Fahren....
The tour never showed up, we waited and waited for 2 hrs, communicated thru chat they did know what was going on, we need our money back asap plus transport to and from pick up point, very very disappointed with the whole process, yet no one reach out to us explaining what happened…
Our tour was perfect in every way. Frank, our guide, was the best ever. He was so informative, didn’t rush us, and was mindful of our ability. We were very happy with the itinerary and especially Frank’s knowledge of History and culture. The visit to the Cemetery was heart rendering…
המדריך התאמץ מאוד להסביר על עשירי העיר המפורסמים , אזורי המגורים שלהם, עשירי העולם שבאים למנילה וכל הקשור בעושר. מעט מאוד הסברים על הדברים שבאמת. חשובים לתייר המתעניין בתרבות, היסטוריה, אומנות וכד. בס״ה״כ׳ פספוס גדול ביותר.
