Your first stop is Manila’s busy commercial centre - Makati - where you can explore the urban scenery through the country’s tallest skyscrapers and sprawling shopping malls. Go on to visit American Memorial & Cemetery containing the graves of 17,191 soldiers most of whom lost their lives in operations in New Guinea and the Philippines.

Complete the tour with Fort Santiago, a citadel first built by Spanish conquistador, Miguel López de Legazpi.
Reviews
We had a wonderful introduction to Manila on this tour. I recommend this tour for those wanting to get a ‘lay of the land’. We appreciated being picked up at the hotel. We were joined by another couple. We drove around while MaLou, our Tour Guide, pointed out major landmarks while sharing interesting facts and history about the sites. Our driver, Arnel, was very competent getting us around the traffic and tight roads. We walked around the Fort at Intramuros, Rizal Park, and the War Memorial. The War Memorial was the highlight of this tour and the easiest way to get to this site. Thank you to Klook. A great tour. Totally recommend.
Except intramuros which is beautiful not much to see in manila city tour. Slow traffic takes maximum of your tour time. our Guide considering his age was knowledgable and extremely good at his job
Our English speaking guide was very knowledgeable, from the arrival of Chinese immigrants in 900 AD to the investment and influence of successful merchants among the second and third generation of Chinese immigrants in the Philippines today, and of course many other historical backgrounds
The guide texted me a day before and driver arrived early and we really enjoyed the guided tour in Manila. Tou was very informative and will definitely recommend this!
Frank was very knowledgeable about the places and its history. I would recommend!
Easy tour. Best to do if you have evening flight and time to spare half day in the morning in Manila. The guide Randolph was quite funny and knowledgeable.
Tour guide Vornado is great! we really enjoy the trip!
Had a car ride to bring around the new Manila Bay Area before the Walking tour around the old intramuros, learn about the history of Philippines
We enjoyed the tour. Some suggestions to make it even better: - bus air con needs to be checked regularly, we felt we were sitting in a microwave - we spent 40 mins at Fort Santiago which is too long, 20 mins is sufficient - National Museum is next to Rizal Park, can consider adding to itinerary, spend 45 mins
The tour was not worth the price. It felt quite expensive for a four-hour tour, especially since several of the locations listed in the itinerary were not actually visited—we only passed by them. While the guide provided explanations during the drive, there were little to no explanations given at the actual sites, which limited the overall experience. Additionally, the tour did not start on time. Pickup was scheduled for 8:30 AM, but we were not picked up until almost 9:00 AM. Overall, the experience did not meet expectations given the cost of the tour.
