Extraordinary day touring much of Manila
"Juliet was absolutely excellent! She and the driver, Anton, arrived as specified at my hotel. The vehicle was excellent, comfortable and cool, Juliet followed the advertised itinerary and adapted based on reality (one of the venues was closed) and my preferences. The information she provided was thorough and very informative. We ended up seeing even more than was discussed in the itinerary which was most appreciated and provided me with an even broader insight into the city. I would highly recommend Juliet for this manila tour!"
"Joemarie began communicating with me even before we met to ensure I knew where to meet him and using Grab for my transportation. He was very knowledgeable in the history of the Philippines and was able to answer all my questions even if they weren’t about the history. I felt safe when we took public transportation and walked through Chinatown. I would definitely recommend him for any other tours he may offer. Thanks again Joemarie "
"The tour was perfect in length and the places we visited. Rodolfo was very knowledgeable, friendly and a very good guide. I would highly recommend. "

"My beautiful daughters and I had a wonderful food tour with Rodolfo. We explored the many cultural pockets of Manila and ate some wonderful food. Some of our favorites included tuna ceviche, hand pulled noodles, and floral infused ice cream. He was a fabulous tour guide through the city where he grew up. He even showed us some personal landmarks from his childhood as we were walking through town. He gave us an in depth history of the Philippines and told us about the artwork of his late father. Rodolfo, thank you for your hospitality! "
"Ray and I both found Rodolfo to be friendly, informative and very responsive to our needs and interests. He helped us to understand some of the country’s history and how it connected with the food we are. We would highly recommend him as a guide "
"Thanks for recommending us a good Halal restaurant which suits our children's taste bud and also for showing us around various options for Halal food at Quaipo. I strongly recommend this tour with Rodolfo for his vast knowledge on local food. Thanks Rodolfo for the great service."
